About MoonTower Bar & Grill
Where great food, cold drinks, and unforgettable memories come together on the beautiful Illinois River
Our Journey
MoonTower Bar & Grill opened its doors in 2022 with a simple vision: to create a welcoming space where the Chillicothe community could gather for exceptional food, refreshing drinks, and genuine hospitality.
Located along the scenic Illinois River, our restaurant offers a unique dining experience that combines the charm of river life with the excitement of a modern bar and grill. Whether you arrive by car, motorcycle, or boat, you'll find a warm welcome waiting for you.
Since our opening, we've become more than just a restaurant – we're a gathering place for celebrations, a venue for live entertainment, and a cornerstone of the local community.
