About us
Thank you for interest in joining Eat Drink & Be Merry (ED&BM) whose members are fun-loving adults (age 50 and beyond) interested in meeting new friends and doing what we do best -- eating, drinking, and talking (a variety of conversations at a variety of restaurant). We focus on supporting local business owners.
At this time, as a group, we do not return to a restaurant we've already enjoyed since new restaurants open almost every year and established restaurants are discovered in Peoria and surrounding towns.
Please note, membership dues each year are $20 to help offset the cost of this group. since the Meetup organization charges for groups. It is greatly appreciated when members volunteer to host events though it isn't a requirement. Those who choose to host events will receive a 50% discount their membership dues the following year. I will work with those who want to host events.
Regards,
Sheila B
Meetup Organizer for the Eat Drink & Be Merry group (ED&BM)

Grand Prairie Pizza and Tavern has been a cornerstone of the Peoria, Illinois dining scene since 2023. What started as a simple idea, serving honest, handmade pizza in a welcoming tavern setting, has grown into one of Central Illinois's most beloved neighborhood restaurants.
Our kitchen keeps it real. We make our dough fresh every morning, hand-cut our toppings, and prepare our fresh ingredients daily. Our tavern carries a rotating selection of local and regional craft beers on tap, as well as a full bar stocked with your favorite spirits and wines. Whether you're a pepperoni and extra cheese regular or a build your own adventurer, there's something on our menu for everyone.
