I'm kind of struggling whether to give 3 or 4 stars. I ate here with my son while my car was being repaired around the corner. We like going to diners for breakfast, and we've been to another Bob's Diner location in the past so I knew what to expect food-wise.
I really wanted oatmeal and I really did not want home fries. So I got my order a la carte and the cost came to be about the same as if I had ordered one of the predefined menu items. I was glad about that.
I got two eggs and toast. I chose over easy and wheat. The eggs were great but the toast was over-toasted. Not quite burnt but too toasted to actually soak up the egg yolk. I also got bacon. The bacon tasted fine but I'm finding that I don't care for the thick sliced variety. I prefer thin and crispy, so next time I'll probably omit the side of bacon. The oatmeal was very good. I really enjoy a good bowl of oatmeal. It came with raisins, brown sugar, and milk (couple ounces.)
Of course I got coffee, and this is why I'm leaning toward three stars. It just wasn't hot. And the waitress did not come around nearly enough to refill the cup.
