Bob Evans Rest.
 

This question is basically about Bob Evans Restruant (sp??). I mean, seriously, is this place a bigger deal in your town? (I do know it goes by a different name out west) Because this weekend was Bob Evans Festival here at the Bob Evans Farms and there's rv's upon rv's here. ( friday I counted at least 200 in -one- of the pastures) I'm just wondering about it, cause I guess since we had the very first Bob's we don't think it's anything here anymore..lol. Oh, and on a side note, they've actually considered CHANGING the name of my university to Bob Evans Univ...yeah..that bad.

Bob Evans only had one menu item EVER that I liked. It was about a year ago, a crock pot chicken dish with gravy that ROCKED. Now that it's gone, I haven't been back....Sorry, but their food is nasty!

Since there are only four in the whole state (TN) I'd say they are NOT a big deal at all around here. (It's Cracker Barrel country down here.) I doubt most people have even heard of it. I've never been to them in Tennessee but we went there all the time when I lived in Ohio b/c they were everywhere, including to the farm when we were on a trip one time. I don't remember much about Bob Evans food wise, but it must have been okay b/c we went there a lot.

i've seen that restaurant down south but i don't think we have them in NY. i can't imagine seeing RVs and pastures!!;)

Does anybody know what they are called in the West?

DAMMIT I miss my bob evans sausage biscuits from the grocery store.:mad:

I ONLY like their breakfast foods -- pancakes with fruit and whipped cream topping. :D

They have the restaurant in NC down the street from me but none of their products in the grocery store. :(

Big Boy or Bob's big boy

Ha ha Optimus Prime :)~ I think they're called Homestead or something like that..I did know.

Hey CrimsonTide4, I'll send you some food :)


Yes, today was the last day of the farm fest and oh-my-god..I had mud to my knees!! And there were still rv's out there!! I guess the mud was so bad it took 2 tractors to pull an rv out..*teehees* stupid tourists. I've noticed that the majority of ppl who go are the exhibitors and ppl over 50...lol

Ps- everyone try their Turkey Baconmelt w/honey mustard, best thing there! But hey..just my 2 cents :)

They don't even have them here in Oklahoma... But we don't get lots of stuff.

I actually remember studying the Farm Fest stuff in PR Case Studies.. It was under a chapter called "The Seamless Web"..

Too bad I can't remember more about it.. just that it was one guy that made sausage and ended up being an international businessman.

They used to have a Bob's Big Boy around here - the food was like Shoney's - AWFUL. Everything was overpriced, prefab freezer food. Didn't last too long.

Gotta love yankees and what they pass off as "food" ;) :p
