One World

Located in an unassuming building near the Bradley campus, this was a good find. Once in, it was a bit confusing because we saw no one, to include a hostess. We could hear patrons somewhere so we waited and someone came to seat us a couple of minutes later and took us to what seemed to be the restaurant side of the house? Once there and seated we got to view all of the themed artwork and items lending themselves to the ambience. It's a very chill and relaxing vibe. The table was clean, as were the utensils, rustic looking floor, and men's bathroom. The waiter was quick and friendly. Our made-from-scratch meals were served pretty quickly and was cooked well. Portions were good and especially for the price. It was noticeably less expensive for the quality of food and expansive options that were provided. Plenty of vegan options available, but I was recommended the Cuban Pulled Pork sandwich and it did not disappoint. Good spices, well cooked, and very filling. We will definitely return and bring friends/family to enjoy.

With the full information that I'm a neanderthal with the palette of a 12 yr old. Really neat little place with a menu that seems over complicated to me, but fortunately they have burgers and pizza in addition to the falderal items. Had a small thin crust sausage pizza. The sauce was sweet, but not too sweet. The crust was crisp and the cheese and toppings were plentiful. The server was quick, polite and attentive along with the rest of the staff being very welcoming. Definitely putting them into my rotation for Peoria visits.

Went there with my friend, and wow, what a view! The atmosphere was really nice, modern but cozy. We had some amazing salads—so fresh and flavorful. The meat dishes were on point too, super juicy and perfectly cooked. Service was friendly, though a bit slow at times. Prices felt a little high, but honestly, the whole experience was worth it. Would definitely come back!

Big boss breakfast sandwich was amazing. The hash browns were perfectly crispy, not greasy and the sauce they put on the sandwich really made it. Service was great and you can tell it's a place people love to come back to

My wife and I wanted to have a quick lunch. We had eaten at One World before always had good service and their food was great. We both had the GYROS PLATTER this time ,turn out to be a great choice! As usual the food and service was excellent.Will eat here again,

One world is a great local spot to check out. I love their turkey club but as a wrap. The bacon cheese fries slap everytime. My wife got one hell of a burger and she said it was cooked to perfection and was really good. I of course I had the turkey club and it was stuffed with turkey bacon cheese I opted out of the honey Dijon and got ranch and it was so goood! Will definitely come back. The young lady who was our waitress was great. She stayed busy but made sure she stopped by our table as often as she could.

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!

Definitely easy to become a regular at a place like this. The food was fantastic, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was very chill. 🌟👌 Again, the food.... 🤤

Whenever I visit Peoria I stop by One World for breakfast and meet up with my former Mother-In-Law. It's our favorite place to meet. We always order the same thing. It used to be called Eggs One World many years ago. Now it's called Baked Egg Dish. We omit the potatoes. I get the regular bagel and she gets the whole wheat bagel. We both got veggie cream cheese. I believe they make their cream cheese. This is a delicious and filling dish. The drip coffee was ok. I wish they still offered the carafe of coffee. Service was very good. She has worked here 13 years. It's a cute restaurant with lots of wall murals.

Coffee and French Toast bake. The coffee was good and the French Toast bake was uniquely good. It was interesting eating it with a fork, but it was better than I expected. The staff was friendly, and this place seems to be a popular place in Peoria. The prices were reasonable, too.

The food and service was delicious! Highly recommend the Thai Chicken Pizza. The Reuben and chicken tenders were also great!

Cute place with a variety of coffee and dessert options. They also have a variety of breakfast and lunch options which include gluten free options. Service is usually pretty friendly.

I've eaten here 3 times and the food is really special. Many items you don't see anywhere else. I had the falafel platter. It was more than I could eat. Our server was very good. I guess my only improvement would be smaller portions at a lower price. None of my party could eat the complete meals. Also it was really loud and hard to have conversations. I will always return whenever in Peoria.

The food is good, it depends on what you order because something about the eggs...well other than the eggs which might just not be my personal taste is wonderful. This is a top collage hangout spot for a reason, the art and decor is excellent and comfortable, not trying too hard but still ornamental and beautiful. The bar makes a wonderful long island, and to third shifters looking for a drink after a long night after work? This place is one of the few that serve in the morning. They have a back patio that is very spacious, but I hope they consider sprucing it up next year, I have a ton of ideas on how to make it even better. Not that it's remotely bad now, not at all. I just think it should match the level of care they took to decorate the rest of the restaurant. Their menu is very unique but not in a bad way at all. I love their pizzas and its cheaper or same price for a pizza from common chains and 10X better. If you live nearby try ordering from here instead of some domino hut. Oh! Lastly the shirts are actually really cool! I've been eyeing a couple but can't afford it right now, but soon hopefully I can get my favorite before it's gone. So not the usual logo shirts, these are actually something made from high quality material that have designs you might buy from a store because you think it's cute. Ah i lied this time lastly for sure the service is always impeccable, they are polite and watchful, and never keep you waiting too long. I wish i could tip them more than i can. Never had a bad experience out of the many years I have been a customer.

Amazing spot to land in. Caught it on a whim, heading to another favorite Peoria spot, i am so glad that I did. Go on in, sit down, enjoy. Even when it is so busy they can't remember their own name, it is so very worth the time. Be ready for a memorable and tasty episode in a busy world.

Review Visit: January 26th, 2012 One World is out of this world. Think of your local town or area. Now think of a place where young hip people go. Now think of menu items that are unique and around $10. Are you imagining a place or something similar? If so, that is what One World is like. That's not a bad thing by any means. That's just how One World feels when you visit. Matt, his friend, Tim, Kim and myself descended upon One World for dinner on this mid-winter evening. The parking for One World and the surrounding area is rather limited. There was parking along the street but I think that is gone now. So, your best bet is to park across the street at CampusTown and play Frogger as you try to cross the worst intersection in Peoria. I had heard that One World has a hipster/snobbish vibe to it and upon entering, I definitely felt it. It's not an unwelcome feeling by any means but one that is impossible to not feel. We were seated at a table and I was instantly distracted by the decor of the place. Our table was against the wall and that was covered in a painting from top to bottom, side to side. This easily distracted me throughout the meal as I tried to take it all in and see all the details. A futile attempt but attempted nonetheless. Since I've been here quite a few times, I will be talking in general for the next little bit. The menu here is unique as One World itself. It seems that every time I've come here, the menu has changed or adjusted in some way. They even have a menu for vegans or gluten-sensitive people. Now, as for the offerings on the menu, they do have some standard items you can find at most restaurants but they also have a lot of unique or specialty things that seem unique to One World. Instead of writing paragraphs about their food offerings, check their website below to view their menus. Each time I've come here, the hipster ambience has been a part of the experience. I'm not sure if that was their goal when opening the place but it has definitely stuck. What also hasn't changed is the deliciousness of their food. That keeps my once-a-year visit exciting as I know the consistence will be the same each time. One World, while a bit pricey and having a unique atmosphere, is well worth playing Frogger for. Just be careful crossing the terrible intersection.

I had the chicken Cajun wrap and upgraded my side to Mac n cheese. Everything was really good! What I don't like that consistently happens here is they do an up charge for any thing they can think of. For the wrap, it was $2.50 extra for breaded chicken versus grilled. No extra meat though. Why are you charging me extra for breading? I said something because I wasn't expecting a charge and they just double downed on it. Why not create a better customer experience and waive the charge since I was not warned and it absolutely makes no sense. The mac and cheese is $2.50 extra and I don't get how this is more costly than their other sides. It was also a small portion. The food is good and the service is friendly but poor management practices.

High quality preparation and taste. Excellent service, friendly and courteous weight staff.

I want to try new restaurants for brunch when I'm in the area so started with this place and it did not disappoint. The chicken and waffles were really good. The chicken was cooked extra crispy just like I like it without me requesting it! And the gravy was nice and flavorful! The service was great! Was there on a Sunday around 9:30am and it wasn't busy at all. The noise level was moderate. There is parking on the street and a parking lot in the back. Overall, I enjoyed my brunch and I will be back next time I'm in the area.

So, I decided to visit one of my favorite cafes, which happens to be next door to a legit private university. Upon entering, I strolled past the front dining area to grab a seat near the bar, and I immediately started to soak in the cool vibes of the "green dragon lounge". I felt like something light for lunch, so as my eyes scanned the remarkable menu, they soon drifted to The Herbivorian Wrap. The ingredients seemed interesting, so I ordered it. Minutes later, it arrived with a smile. Without hesitation, I picked up this vegetarian handheld and proceeded to learn more about it: visually appealing, fresh, tightly wrapped and layered ingredients, a spicy sauce...delicious. Overall, it was well composed and worth the price. Regarding the hospitality, the staff seemed friendly, and the food and beverage were delivered in a timely manner - just as I expected them to be.

Every single time I've ordered from them has been fantastic! Now how many places can you say that about?

The Thai noodle salad was nice. The Cuban pizza was interesting. Unfortunately it seems to have a mayo-based sauce, but the meat, mustard, and pickles were a good combination. The berry revive drink was overly syrupy.

We love OneWorld Great food, service and local feel. The pizza is fantastic and my favorite is the Thai Peanut Salad.

Delicious! So much variety, and everything was cooked perfectly! Service was amazing!

Best place to go to in Peoria at breakfast. It's for sure if needing a vegan option in the morning. One World has a pretty big menu of healthy and not so healthy options. Gets packed especially when college is in session so maybe place an order ahead. The prices are pretty good for the big portions. After looking up any vegan friendly places, we came here at breakfast. It was already busy. There were lots of Bradley students and whoever. It's a popular place especially for the hip crowd. They not only have vegan friendly breakfast but have lots of things at lunch too. I had the Baked Egg Dish. This has the vegan substitutes of vegan cheese and tofu scramble. It's about $9 for a lot. This also has potatoes, toast, and vegetables. She had the Vegan Pancakes. These were fluffy and stacked. Get here at breakfast. It's also good at lunch. There's plenty of classic items to choose from along with many that are friendly for vegans and vegetarians.

Every thing looked great.l that the group ordered .. Waitress was nice. I only ordered coffee bc it was too early for lunch. Got no coffee refill offer but I left a tip anyway. Won't happen again ... who doesn't offer coffee refills .... Also they don't Have sugar free creamer. Or stevia.

Absolutely my favorite place ive tried in Peoria so far! So many options and such a cute, eclectic ambiance inside :) i got the breakfast quesadillas with soy chorizo and they were so yum !!!

This place used to be a really great place to go for people with alternative diets. As a person with celiac disease, I enjoy the fact that they have a separate menu. However, the last couple times I've been here the selection hasn't been as great. The food has been, OK. I typically have very good service here. I love their expensive drink menu, including coffee, tea, soda. They also have a bar if that's your thing.

Food and Service was excellent! We've enjoyed the experience going every chance we get . My wife and I love the breakfast menu.

My wife and I dined in for lunch on a Monday afternoon! We ordered a single order of hummus with veggies and pita bread to start our lunch! The hummus has good flavor and a nice smooth texture! We got the veggies without tomatoes. The pita bread is a standard good tasting pita bread. We also ordered a burger medium well to split between us with cheddar, grilled and raw onions, pickles and lettuce. The burger came with 1 side and we chose fries. The char grilled burger was really good and cooked perfectly. The fries are a standard frozen fry but are seasoned well with salt. Our service was great! This was a good lunch!

In town for a few months for work- checking out the scene, stoped at this swanky place on Main st. Pretty quick service, drinks were Made expected even made an off the menu for my lady, food was pretty good quality! Would come back esp for their drinks

Stopped on here with a group. All of us ordered something different. The sampler appetizer was very good the dips were fresh and tasty. The breads and pita were good as well that were served with it. The husband has a burger and said it was really good. One of the couples ordered breakfast and said it was all very good. I had the southwest salad and unfortunately it wasn't fit to eat. There was about an inch of liquid the the bottom of the bowl that all my lettuce was swimming and was very limp. The chicken on it I expected to be fresh grilled chicken instead was cold chicken lunchmeat. I should have picked a better option.

Just had my first trip here and it was great. I ordered the Turkey Club on the focaccia and it was amazing. My dad had been here before with my sister and remembered the biscuits and gravy were pretty good, so he got them again. His girlfriend ordered the breakfast pizza and didn't realize how big it would be. She's going to be eating on that for days. Our waitress was very attentive and checked back on us often even though it was busy. The portions are pretty big here, so come with an appetite or plan on leftovers. We did have to wait for a table, but it was a Saturday so it should be expected.

One world staff is always friendly and helpful! The food is always good and they have dairy free pizza which I haven't found anywhere else and it was delicious!

Amazing upscale hole-in-the-wall gem we stumbled upon on our last day in Peoria. The breakfast was surprising off the chain! The fried eggs were cooked perfectly with a side of fried potatoes and hearty toast. The mimosa was perfectly balanced and I finished with an Irish coffee paired with the Reese's peanut butter pie, which was silky and rich. The atmosphere was quaint and welcoming. Tourists and locals alike, you'll regret it if you skip this spot!

Great food! Good service. Only complaint is being seated so close to other customers that there was barely enough room to squeeze by them to go to the bathroom. We were the only customers in the room. Why sit us so close? I love the variety of foods and dishes that are available and think that they are delicious.

The worst falafel ever they were black they were hard and they were dry, the restaurant was much better just a few years ago But the bistro salad is still good, just ask for extra blue cheese

If you're in Peoria, don't hesitate to go to One World. Does not matter which meal you're there for, all of them are a treat. It's it fun and quirky, friendly, and offers a wide variety of choices for anyone. Need a boost? They even have an amazing coffee bar. Samoa Iced Coffee is delicious! Waffles are always delicious, breakfast potatoes are a must, and the salads are fresh and filling.

Good service, below average food. Can only speak on breakfast. Eggs, Waffles, and Breakfast Quesadillas. Would not get breakfast there again.

Third place we stopped by for our business trip. Popular place with lots of table occupied. Super great services. Food was just Meh. Happy to see that Somasas was on the menu. Got one order for the table however those were not warmed thoroughly so were not great for us. I reminded my coworkers that burgers had some great reviews so they got those which looked good. I got Thai noodle salad which was meh. The tofu and cucumber toppings were nice. But the Thai rice noodle were in a weird place- not tender nor flavorful. My drink was the highlight of this lunch - coconut mocha frappe. Perfect for my 2 hour driving back to home.

Enjoyed One World last night. We were seated quickly at about 5:30 on Friday night. Our server was attentive and quick. My partner ordered wine; I got a carafe of sangria. Our drinks came quickly. The menu seemed smaller. It was three pages but now is a single, two-sided. My partner ordered a bacon mushroom burger with a side of beans and rice. I ordered a Reuben sandwich and side salad with cilantro ranch dressing. It comes with cabbage slaw on the sandwich, which is different from most Reuben's. I declined that for the more traditional sauerkraut and 1000 island. While we were waiting, two other tables were seated whose food came before ours. Not a good thing! We were told the burger was taking a while, also not a good response! Eventually we were served our food. The burger was good, though he realized he had not been asked how well he wanted it cooked. He likes medium rare, but this was just medium. My Reuben was delicious. The side salad was crisp and plentiful. A second glass of wine came quickly after our food. Their patch sangria is delicious, fruity and cold with a good kick from the wine. I could only eat half the sandwich, and our waiter speedily brought a to-go container, a foil bottom with a plastic top, both recyclable but not the compost able containers One World had before. Other than the wait for the food, our meal was as good as we have experienced before at One World. The bill was $70+; the carafe was $24 which made the bill a bit high, but it was worth it!

Great place with a friendly staff and a wide variety of food. Would go there more often if I lived closer.

Always a great experience with great food, service is great, there's a catch though... you'll likely be waiting awhile as service is slow

A bright spot in our visit was this eclectic spot downtown. The dining room was full but the weather was nice and we opted for an outside table and were seated immediately. I had the blacked fish tacos, a tasty variation I hadn't had before. My wife had the excellent spinach salad with chicken. Their extensive menu probably has something you'll really enjoy!

I love One World! It's definitely the place I'll take any visitors too because it's affordable, has a great atmosphere, and the food never fails! I love getting brunch and dinner here. My favorite thing to get is the waffle or the burger! The roasted veggies and fries are my go-to sides. I recently tried the world turkey club and the santa fe wrap and both were really good! GET THE REECE'S PIE!! You won't regret it. This is also a great place for bradley students because you get to use your quick cash here ;)

Wow this place is awesome!! To start, Kelly my waitress was amazing and super nice and attentive. She even gave recommendations and waited while I scrambled through my luggage for my ID. They also were accommodating of my luggage by moving a table around so it wasn't in the way. The inside is super cute, they have kind of like 3 little areas. There are booths and tables and a little stand alone cafe in the front section. They had a cute diner but also newer hippie decor vibe and I sat at a table close to the sidewalk so I could see outside. I started with the dragon fruit adult lemonade and it was delicious. The lemonade was sweet but delicious and they had 3 unique flavors. They also had a large selection of coffee drinks and other special drinks as well (full bar). I legit wanted multiple things on the menu and could not decide but finally chose the chicken and waffles. I saw another yelper posting about them as a must try and decided on them. BEST DECISION. First off, I was able to eat my whole plate. There wasn't too much food that I ended up having to waste it and it wasn't too small. The portion was perfect. The waffle had a unique shape as was perfectly crispy but not too crunchy. The chicken was absolutely delicious. You could tell that the batter was homemade and you got three nice pieces of chicken. The gravy was to die for, super thick with chunks of sausage! Finally, it came with 3 pieces of bacon that were cooked to perfection. Everything was absolutely amazing. I also got the monster cookie to go and it was so good. It was gluten free but did not taste bad at all. It was super good with oatmeal, M&M's, chocolate chips and it was huge. If ever in the area, I would go again!!

Fab food!!!!! You can have it delivered and it still arrives wonderfully with all the sides separated and ready to indulge. You can't ask for much more!

My family and I found this little gem a few months ago and loved it!! Delicious food, great atmosphere, and the servers were very friendly. It was also a great place to bring my littles to- super kid-friendly :)

First off, Gladis up front was just such a delight. Her wisdom and life experiences were just so incredibly inspiring, and her knowledge of reptiles is immaculate. Second, which in my opinion should be first was best mountain dew in Illinois. Period. The food was pretty good too.

I love their lavender lemonade. The service is great too. I ordered a grilled cheese with tomato, tomato soup and a fruit cup.

They offer a wide variety of great food to choose from. They also offer some food favorites that are no longer on the menu, which is really nice. The atmosphere is artsy & casual--it's a great place to catch up with friends or go on a date.

Date night here is always fun. Food is always great as well. The pita and hummus are just so fresh and tasty! Make sure to try it at some point!

The food was delicious,and the ambiance was a family style envierment. Service was great and friendly. Prices were not too also for Bier there IPA aren't bad and had a local variety.on a 1 to 10 I will give them a 5.give them a 4 star rating.

Always stop here when we're in town. Haven't had anything bad! Been seeing same employees for years--good sign! Baked goods are a special treat and baked fresh--like all the food. Love the fish tacos, blackened fish sandwich and the flourless chocolate cake--yum! Gluten free, vegetarian and dairy free options too!

OH MY GOODNESS. THE BEST MAC N CHEESE THAT IVE EVER HAD. After going to Jimmy's the night before where the cocktails are VERY steering it was a nice change up going to One Works where the drinks are well balanced and the food is a nice pick me up from the night before :P. Mac n cheese was incredible and I highly recommend it!! The crab Rangoon crust was in the thicker side which I didn't love but still was delicious. If you go to Peoria YOU MUST go here!! Right in the corner of University and Main St. across from Harper dorm at Bradley!! GREAT SPOT:)

I had their garden 12 " pizza for lunch with basil pesto instead of marinara! It was very good but greasy feeling after. They also had white chocolate peppermint mocha and it was SO tasty and good! I asked for a small but their small is a regular size and still get alot for the price which I think was $4.50!! So tasty!

So delicious, tried the gyro plater and burger with ham, bacon and egg on it. Literally left stuffed to the max. Would come back, the pizza also looks delicious
