Dear Restaurant Owners
PEORIA PAVING THE WAY FOR RESTAURANT CURB-SIDE PICKUP AND DELIVERY DURING COVID-19 PANDEMIC
City aids in keeping restaurants running during state mandated closures
PEORIA – March 23, 2020 –
The City of Peoria’s response to COVID-19 has been evolving at a rapid pace. As of Saturday, March 21, at 5 p.m. all restaurants across the state of Illinois are required by law to be closed to the public. Drive-through, carryout and delivery services are still permitted; and Peoria is working to help restaurants keep their foot traffic flowing.
If you would like to be included in a
list of restaurants open for curb-side pickup

:
Our list is constantly changing, we encourage customers to call ahead or check your restaurant’s website for further information or direction prior to placing an order.
Customers who utilize curb-side services are also encouraged to follow some commonsense driving laws when picking up their orders; including the following:
- Do not stop in traffic lanes
- Do not bock fire hydrants
- Do not stop in handicap parking spaces
Parking spaces in front of restaurants that offer curb-side service, carryout and pickup need parking spots reserved for customers.
Downtown Restaurants should have meters bagged to identify designated Curbside Pickup areas. To obtain more information on designating parking or bagging a meter email. kevans@peoriagov.org.
