Dreaming of cookies? This late-night cookie shop is coming to Peoria

When other people are counting sheep, are you craving cookies?

If so, you will soon be in luck. A new late-night cookie shop is on its way to Peoria.

Insomnia Cookies is working to open across from Bradley University in the Campustown Shopping Center. The new shop will fill the unit that was previously home to Bard Optical.

The chain is known for its late night cookie deliveries. According to details on the coming soon page, the Peoria store expects to be open until midnight and 1 a.m. − depending on the day. 

Currently, the closest Insomnia Cookies storefront is situated more than 35 minutes away in Normal. The coming soon page for Peoria lists a location in Champaign – which is more than an hour and 20 minutes away by car.

Insomnia Cookies also offers nationwide shipping on cookie boxes, according to its website.
