Accel Locations That Have Great Websites

The biggest piece of advice we would give our customers when they ask about how they should get the word out about their location, it would be to go digital! Whether this means investing more time and energy in social media or building out you own website, it is important to have some kind of presence online since a large percentage of your customers use technology in their daily lives. Instead of focusing on social media, in this blog we are going to focus on personal websites and our locations who are making the most use of them.

Poopy’s Pub N Grub in Savanna, IL

Poopy’s Pub N Grub in Savanna has been part of the Accel family since late 2012 and has always had a strong online presence for their brand. In addition to their impressive social media activity, Poopy’s has an incredible website for their location. On their homepage, Poopy’s advertises upcoming events and shows held at their location, a selection of their t-shirts and other merch, a map to find the location, and a sign up for their email newsletter.

Bonnie’s Dining & Banquets in Willow Springs, IL

Bonnie’s is a more recent member of the Accel Entertainment family, adding slot machines to their existing business in late 2018. What really sets Bonnie’s apart from other locations is its long and interesting history and old school atmosphere. Customers can really get a sense of the establishment when they visit Bonnie’s website, which has a detailed ‘About Us’ section and a Pictorial History of the attached Illinois Billiards Club. You can also take a sort of ‘tour’ through the restaurant and billiard club by browsing through a gallery of beautiful photos of the establishment.

Stick’s Pub & Grub in Fox River Grove, IL

Stick’s Pub & Grub has been part of the Accel Entertainment family since their opening and has been wowing us (and their customers) with their web presence ever since. What helps Stick’s website stand out from the crowd is the amount of resources they can provide their customers while still keeping with their minimalistic web design. On the scrolling home page of their site, you can find their latest Twitter announcement, upcoming specials, location information, customer reviews, and their food & drink menu. You can also find information on their specials and an email address to contact them.

Refinery Bar & Grill in Wood River, IL

The Refinery Bar & Grill in Wood River is also a more recent addition to our family, going live with gaming less than a year ago. At first glance, their website might seem a little sparse, but the Refinery Bar & Grill highlights excels in two areas of their website – testimonials and visuals. On their site, they have a small section of customer testimonials that is fed through their Google reviews. This is a great resource for customers since they can get a real feel for how actual visitors feel about the Refinery! The Refinery also highlights their Instagram and Facebook feeds in a rather indirect way. Instead of having a traditional feed from their social media, the Refinery just adds the stylistic images and visuals to their site, which really elevates the aesthetic of the whole website.
