How early should I arrive?

Doors open 30 minutes before the painting starts. Come early, grab your seat and order a drink — the artist starts on time.

Is the venue wheelchair accessible?

Yes — The Neon Bison has a wheelchair-accessible entrance and restrooms. If you have specific seating needs, contact the venue ahead of the event and they'll set you up.

Oooookay, took me a minute to review this place cause I wanted to try a few things first and O! M! G! FIRST of all! I had two different bartenders… Jill and Ricki… they were AMAZING!!! Absolutely stellar service and really quick with the comebacks- very witty… Jill made some cool leather thing too… the cornbread was HUGE and SO GOOD!!! Also… finding good okra in Peoria… it’s this place…. Of course I tried that grilled cheese that the sweet waitress Kim suggested- she was right… delicious!!! Honestly, I’m coming back for the food & the service… I might’ve become a regular now… love this place, this might have just become my favorite spot in peoria…. The THCdrinks aren’t my jam but they are available there Great location too- right downtown, street parking, indoor outdoor seating, sometimes live entertainment, chill vibes…. I love this place!!!!

First time here but love bison as a choice for burger. Both (Husband) and I had the bison burger. Very good hand cut fries were excellent and came out extremely hot. We live about 90 miles away, but we will be back. I sampled the local blonde beer that I ended up getting a draft glass oven. It was very good.

Kim made the most delicious bloody mary I have ever had! Her smile and skills deserve 100 stars, definitely recommend Kim's Bison Mary! Thank you so much and definitely will be back!
