| - After having our memorial day plans deterred due to a car sick child, we were looking for a nearby restaurant to grab brunch. After calling 5 local brunch spots, I was highly disappointed that they were all closed or closing within the hour. Luckily, I remembered that a new diner had opened on Grove road. When I called Bob's, I was thrilled to find out that they were open until 2.
Upon arrival, we were greeted warmly. The hostess, noticing that I was preggo (what she didn't know was that I was actually OVERDUE) sat us in the cooler part of the restaurant. Apparently the other side was rather warm. She then proceeded to bring crayons and paper for our 2 year old. Off to a great start!
The menu is quite extensive. Everything you could want for brunch or lunch was represented on the menu, including several options for the sweet tooth. Our server arrived promptly and we were able to quickly place our order. She brought our drinks and we then waited for 20 minutes (for brunch food?). It was a bit excessive but, the restaurant was full. (Probably because it was the only place open!) When my fancy, fruity waffle arrived, I was very impressed. The waffle was the perfect combo of sweet and crispy. Topped with cut strawberries and a mound of whipped cream, it was a feast for the eyes. The kids pancake meal was also very impressive. A huge, full size pancake with mickey mouse ears, a strawberry/banana face and a slice of bacon. The overall experience was better than expected. The only downfall for me was that the inside looks like it is in need of some remodeling/updates.
