Bob Evens' management must hate their servers, because when Mary, her parents and I were at Bob Evans yesterday we noticed a strong lack of servers and the hostess seated 5 groups of people, including ourselves, in a section that had a party of 10 for one waitress. Â When this waitress finally came by to check on us, about 10 minutes later, we realized that we have had this waitress before and for the most part we have received superb service from her in the past and this time was no different. Â So, hats of to her for making what could have been a really bad service experience into one that was manageable, especially when I could look over and see another waitress having a 10 minute conversation with a table that she wasn't even helping. Â Some good servers and some bad, unfortunately, and this place has always been a revolving door of wait staff.
Anyway, the food is always consistent and the coffee is okay. Â I got a burger for the first time here and I was pleasantly surprised with the quality. Â Their breakfast is always good and I have never received a wrong order. Â I just wish this place could appreciate its wait staff a little more and not bombard a single server with 5 tables at once. Â Maybe then the staff will stop going through the revolving door.
Sorry for the soap-box. Â But, if you don't get there before 11:30, you will wait to be seated due to a mass of after church crowd. Â So get there early.
