I forgot to acknowledge a cash donation the other day. When I was at Peacock’s Pub last week, Debbie gave me a cash donation of 15 dollars. That was very generous and I forgot to thank her on that post, so I’m thanking her right now. Thanks Debbie, that was extremely nice and generous of you and I appreciate it!

On the original 365 bar crawl blog, I went to Khaki Jack’s on April 27, 2010. I had never been inside of Khaki Jack’s and it was a fun Peoria stop on that 365 adventure.

And now, almost sixteen years later, we’re headed back there again!

Bar Number 23: Khaki Jack’s, Sunday February 1, 2026

Here we are at Khaki Jack’s, the 23rd stop on this 365 tour.

And yes, it’s freezing cold, so let’s get inside and see what’s happening in here on this Sunday evening.

Wow, there’s a lot of people at the bar for a Sunday evening! And I see a famililar face there…

It’s my friend Nancy, who’s our special Sunday evening, guest star! Great to see Nancy and she’s looking fantastic!

Brayden was the friendly bartender on duty and here he is serving me up an ice-cold bottle of Budweiser! Cheers!

The back of the bar is lit up in a blue hue and looks very cool!

As you can see, they have a nice inventory of bottled beer in this cooler behind the bar and there’s the trio of taps back there.

Pete’s a regular here at Khaki Jack’s and I’ve taken his photo many times at the bar, but this is the first time I’ve seen him here with his brother, Troy! Wonderful to see and chat with both of them.

My friends, Steve and Kathy were having dinner in here and it was great to see both of them in here.

Kathy’s a singer and songwriter and you can listen and see her performing songs on her YouTube channel.

There’s dining tables opposite the bar, booths line the far wall and there’s tables in the back with the giant Khaki Jack’s Australian painting on it.

There’s a row of gaming machines over in this corner if you’re feeling lucky. Well do ya punk?

Here’s our Sunday dinner that Nancy and I are splitting. We got an order of chicken wings and a lovely cheese pizza and the food looks delicious! Time to dig in!
