| - We were visiting relatives in Ohio who suggested Bob Evans for breakfast on Sunday. We've been pleased with locations in Florida, and hey, the famed Bob Evans farms are in Ohio ... so why not?
We lucked into a nearly-zero wait for our party of five (or perhaps four-and-a-half, depending on how you count a first-grader), arriving around 10:30, though service seemed to run a bit slower than I'd have expected for a place that really wants to turn the tables on a Sunday morning. I'm crediting that to their having rolled out two different blends of coffee ("signature" and "dark roast") in addition to decaf; it took quite a while for a "new pot" of whatever we were getting to be brewed and served after seating. Long enough, in fact, we were anticipating receiving coffee and entrees at the same time (though in fairness, the coffee arrived first, by a nose).
But overall, service was pleasant, and breakfast was what we expected it to be. As a relatively new chain location, it's more spacious than other, more "local flavor" kinds of breakfast joints. While I might not go out of my way to hit this place up, it does serve its purpose if one is in the area and in a breakfast-y kind of way.
