Kenny's Westside Pub

Kenny's Westside Pub is a downtown Peoria bar best known for its live music, with a calendar of shows that runs through the fall. The kitchen serves pub food, and its signature dish is the Sheen Loaf, a meatloaf made Kenny's style as a tribute to Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen, the Peoria-area native whose television ministry reached millions. The business began in 2013 with a goal of honoring Peoria's Irish community.

Show tickets can be bought ahead on the website, and some events are limited to ages 21 and up. Food can be ordered for pickup or delivery online, and the kitchen stays open until 4 am every day. The pub sits in downtown Peoria and is a convenient stop for visitors following the Sheen pilgrimage route.
