| - After looking for somewhere to have breakfast this past Sunday, I remembered that Bob's Diner had opened right down the road from me. When we walked in it was a much better looking restaurant that used to be there. It was bright and clean. It was crowded, but the wait was short. After we were seated, the service was good and our orders were taken. Our drinks were kept full and our food arrived shortly after ordering. I had the sausage gravy and biscuits with home fries plus a pancake to share, and my girl had the mixed grill. The mixed grill looked good, but based on the description I was a bit disappointed with the size. The biscuits and gravy and pancake looked good, but the portion of potatoes was very small. As we both started to eat, I realized that my pancake, biscuits and gravy, and potatoes were all luke warm at best and didn't taste very good because they weren't hot. Cold sausage gravy is awful! I told the waitress and she apologized and told me that she would have them remake my order. At least I could be sure they weren't just throwing it in the microwave! My girlfriend continued to eat (and share) her meal that was tasty. It took a little while, but my new order came out and I was happy that I was going to have my breakfast. Unfortunately it was not any warmer than the first one that they served me. None of it! I told my waitress and could see just how frustrated she was. She apologized many times and said that she would remove the charge for my breakfast from our bill. She did so, and the manager came over and apologized as well. She even offered up a 5 dollar coupon for another visit. After paying my bill, we decided to use our 5 bucks on a slice of apple pie for later on. It was decent. Based on my experience, I wouldn't go out of my way to go back to a Bob's. There are plenty of other breakfast options in the area that I would rather try for a first time or return to.
