Thirty-Thirty Coffee in Peoria Illinois



Check out that bear!

You know...  several years ago, while in Illinois, I picked up a local magazine talking about Thirty-Thirty Coffee Company in Peoria.  I made a note that, next time in the area, I had to check it out.

So, as we drove west, I saw that we would be driving right through Peoria.  Googlemaps showed that we would pretty much be driving right by this coffee shop.

So we stopped by on the second morning of our recent road trip.

The coffee shop is well known for having a legendary stuffed (taxidermy) bear.  It is a polar bear...  and it is black.  At some point, the white bear received artificial coloring.  He looks great though, and he really makes the place unique.

We sat and had some very nice drinks on a slightly cold morning.  The shop was already lively with locals.

There are some interesting painting all through the place, and there is plenty of room for crowds.

We really liked the vibe and the coffee, and I look forward to getting a chance to stop at Thirty-Thirty Coffee again soon!
