My husband and I recently went on a day trip to Peoria, Ilinois, to revisit the Wildlife Prairie Park. As is customary, I needed to find a place to eat lunch. My brother suggested One World Cafe as he's been to it before and reallly enjoyed the vegetarian options. We stopped in on a very hot and humid day and the airy space and cool air were a welcome respite for us. We ordered a breakfast pizza and had enough left over to both eat that for our supper as well. The coffee and decaf coffee were excellent. Service was great, attentive but not overly so, and the food was excellent. I also enjoyed the various pieces of art that were on prominent display in the space.

One World is absolutely phenomenal! Where to begin with the accolades....the food is outstanding, the atmosphere is warm and inviting and the staff from front of house to back of house are amazing! They offer a gluten free menu and if dairy is an issue, they will make substitutions AND they do use non-dairy vegan cheese. The regular menu is bursting with flavor and the portion sizes on both menus are large. The staff (servers and kitchen) are extremely diligent when it comes to dietary restrictions and cross contamination. This is one of the best restaurants in Peoria and I HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend them!

Went for lunch today. let's start with service well it was 5 stars. On to food had the Bacon, mushroom and chicken sandwich, with side of fries. chicken was cook nicely, the bacon and mushrooms were good, But what put this sandwich over the top was the bread, Tomato Basil Focaccia roll was infused with flavor and outstanding.

This place was absolutely phenomenal. With so many options and Catering to a Vegan member of our party they absolutely nailed every dish served for our table of 5. Everyone enjoyed their food and the Waitress was super attentive to us. Very pleased with everything we experienced here from to the moment we walked in to the moment we left. Definitely recommend this place for a great atmosphere and excellent food. Kudos to the cooks back there pumping out delicious food.

My dad has been in and out of hospice as our family cares for him through Parkinson’s and dementia. There are good days and hard days, and since I live about five hours away, every visit is precious. Today was one of those good days. We spent time together at Bass Pro Shop, bought matching hats, and then enjoyed lunch at One World Cafe. Of course, we couldn’t leave without dessert! During our meal, our server, Jen, quietly handed me a note and said, “Your lunch has been paid for.” As I read the note, I was overcome with emotion. It was such an unexpected act of kindness during a season when those moments mean more than words can express. Jen, your compassion reminded me that even in a world that can be difficult, there are still people who choose kindness, generosity, and love. Thank you for making an already special day with my dad one we’ll never forget. And yes—the food was fantastic! Dad especially loved the berry cobbler with ice cream. Great food, a wonderful atmosphere, and an even more wonderful server. We’ll definitely be back.

First-time reviewer, longtime One World customer. Back in 1995, while I was at Bradley University, One World shaped me into a lifelong coffee lover and basically powered my social life for years. From performing in the One World Theatre improv show *Life Dog Corn Eat Shoe* to poetry slams, it was my home base. My visit on January 17 didn’t disappoint. The familiar wall art, the delightfully quirky staff, and the drink and food lineup all signaled I was back where I belong. Today I went for the turmeric latte: warm, richly flavored, and soothing straight down to the cockles of my heart. Maybe below the cockles. Somewhere in the sub-cockle region. I also splurged on a large chocolate chip cookie. This is not a cookie for the faint of heart; this cookie was as large as my head and nurtured my soul. Thank you, One World!

My wife & I stopped @ One World Cafe for a weekday mid-summer lunch while passing through Peoria, and it was the first time we didn't have to wait for seating (a very popular restaurant for Bradley University students who can walk there from campus). This was our 4th or 5th visit to OWC over the last decade or so, and we were once again impressed by the table service & the large variety of menu choices. Our waitress Kimberly U was doing triple duty with bar service & pickup orders; but she remained attentive to us in our booth from our arrival to our departure. Our meal choice volumes & quality were both top notch. My wife very much enjoyed her Chicken & Waffle dish, and my huge Turkey Club sandwich was very tasty & flavorful. There selection of baked goods/desserts were smaller than we've seen in the past, but the large chocolate chip cookie we shared topped off a very satisfying meal. One World Cafe will remain in the top tier of our dining choices when visiting or transiting PEO, and we look forward to our next opportunity to eat there.

Flexible menu for dietary restrictions. The French toast casserole is a delicious hearty portion, and the gluten free crust on the full size breakfast pizza was divine.
