we went to Bob Evans Cape Coral today 12-12-22
We were seated by the female mgr.
We ordered 2 glasses of wine at 3:10 pm
she said we could only order one at a time.
after one glass we ordered the second glass
and was told we could only have it along with the
meal. She would not even put the wine order in.
She was very rude and left to clean the floor.
I said we are leaving if I
can not have a glass of
wine served to me. she left us and went to the kitchen.
We left with no dinner.
The service and customer treatment was terrible.
We went next door and was treated perfectly.
We have a large number living in our complex.
The Bob Evans menu is on the entrance wall with
this message in red.

Thanksgiving dinner food
The food was delivered the day before Thanksgiving,Wednesday, November 23, 2022. The delivery person did not ring the bell or knock on the door. Fortunately, my son called, from out of town, to see if I received the food. It was sitting on the porch, and I refrigerated immediately. Fortunately, the animals in the nearby woods had not tampered with the box.
The beverages ordered were never delivered. We had to rush out and purchase drinks.
The white potatoes were molded, and therefore, inedible. When opened to warm for dinner, there was mold throughout the potatoes.
The white turkey meat was like a sandwich loaf, only raw and tough. I had to cook it.
My son ordered the meal because we had ill and hospitalized relatives. He was trying to help me out since we had many people coming for dinner, and I had just hospitalized my sister. My son has too many responsibilities to write a complaint. However, I can' t begin to express my disappointment with a company like yours during our time of difficulty.
Desired outcome: My son should be refunded his money. However, he never makes complaints. I hope you will be more careful with the food you provide in the future. If I had made the order, I would want a refund - at least for the potatoes and beverages.

Date: Dec 1st 2022
LOCATION: Brannon Crossing Nich, KY 40356
I've really seen our BoB Evans Location go downhill. For the most part the food is good but the service needs a little structure and professional touch. If you go in there is NEVER someone to host you and you wait and are NEVER greeted. I think they have a big turnover in employees because you seldom see the same ones. There is less than a handful that are friendly or deserve their tip. None of them act like they want to be there. The food as been fine when received but the "wait time" is a little ridiculous for say a Salad or club sandwich? You should be greeted when coming in and someone at the register at all times. I"ve seen OLD people have to STAND with a cane for 10-min or more to be checked in or checked out. Very sad and should not represent Bob Evans in our area. Thank you! for your time... hope to see it improve...
Desired outcome: I would like to see from now on......Friendly Professional Country Hospitality and Food prepared in a timely manner. There Should ALWAYS be someone to Greet you and Someone to CHECK you out. Thank you
Food service
On Tuesday 11/29 at 330pm I ordered for delivery two dinners. L they arrived on time, that is not the complaint. The dinner turkey dinner was awful, the turkey was small ends pieces that looked like they were left over from thanksgiving and dry, the stuffing was not good at all matter of fact the dinner wasn't good. When my sister called the restaurant...
Read full review of Bob Evanstook to long for lunch.
took place on November 24 2022 at bloomington store on iaa drive.
it took us a hour plus to get our food. the first time it was brought out it was wrong. the next time it was right but had to make a second trip to get it right.
there were people leaving that had waited to long.
the food was maybe warm but no where hot when we got it.
this was a big down grade from last year.
spent a lot of money to wait for warm food and a hour lost.

New boston ohio bob evans
We went to Bob Evans on Thanksgiving night for a small dinner. The waitress decided to refill our drinks from a pitcher left on another parties table. We asked her to get a new pitcher and she got an attitude. When we asked the manager if that was common practice he said yes and went on to say that was common practice. So warning to all of you they are leaving tea on the table for people to sneeze in or put things in and then they are serving it to the next table. He was willing and able to argue about it said that he’s had 25 years and food service and that is legal in the state of Ohio. Disgusting!
Desired outcome: For him to learn the real legality of Spreading germs and the nastiness of sharing a picture with another table once they have had that picture over there and it was basically all melted down anyway
Online Order 11-24-22
Need to get a refund for the meal that I purchased but did receive. I placed my order 11-24-22 and was supposed to pick it up at 2:35p. I arrived at 2:35p to pick up my order and was informed if you don’t see it on the countertop it was not ready. I went back to my car. I came back in at 2:50p. I was informed at 3:10p that it would be another 45 minutes minimum. I walked up and wanted to cancel my order. At this point they told me that they could get it together real quick. They came back and said they could not find it. i gave them the email with the id number on it and they still could not find it. They took my information and I left. On 11-25 I called the store to resolve and no one answered the phone at the store and at the corporate office and I have not been able to resolve the matter
Desired outcome: Refund and free meal
Incomplete order, 50 mile return to retrieve rest of order.
Date: Nov 24, 2022
Bob Evans at:
840 Perry Ave
Big Rapids, MI 46805
[protected]
Shorted my order with only sides and desert. (((NO main dish))).
I had to drive another 50 miles round trip and spend another 10 in gas, to return and get missing (Main Dish) items.
The manager at: (840 Perry Ave Big Rapids, MI [protected]) was rather distant and put me off to just call back. Manager showed (zero) empathy.
Since this above encounter I checked online and found numerous complaints of orders missing items like mine. There are a lot of online complaints. Bob Evans needs to (LISTEN) to the customers. But they will not do this.
I likely will NOT frequent Bob Evans in the future.
There management and customer support leaves much to be desired and is (1 taco short of a combination plate).
It's their loss, as we eat out frequently. Bye bye Bob Evans. Good luck, you are going to need it.
I should get a refund. I uploaded feedback to their contact email on their website. Will do it again.
Anyone know of anything I can do?
Desired outcome: Refund to my cc.
Bob Evans sent a gift card for the amount of the order.
Employee doing drugs and having sex at work
In your Marietta Ohio location a manager named Jason has made it known to many employed that he snorts pills at work. He has also been keeping a female employee after work and letting her stay clocked in wile she does sexual favors for him. its only on his nights managing that they stay really late. I have to work in this environment. And itS [censored]. I Should not have to put up with rhis 8

Read full review of Bob EvansPoor quality of food and piss poor customer service!!
On November 21, 2022, I ordered 3 pot roast meals for dinner. Upon getting home, I opened up the containers and the food was all over the place, mixed in together like pig slop. I called store 49, in Sharonville, Ohio to express how displeased I was with the way my food was served. Other establishments use compartmentalized dishes or use small separate containers such as Cracker Barrel. The manager informed me that if I didn’t want my food the way it was received, that I had to ASK for it to be packaged differently. How was I suppose to know what type of containers you have for carry out. The manager Tasha did not seem concerned at all about this so I decided to go above her head for help.Of course I informed her that I would not be patronizing her store again, eating in or getting carry out! I called back and asked for the manager’s name and the stiore number and the corporate number. A man who answered the phone proceeded to sl the phone down in my ear. My fiancé called back and spoke to a young lady who gave us information and the manager came back over the phone.
Desired outcome: I would like to see better containers for carry out and at least a partial if not full refund due to the poor way the food was served, like PIGS SLOP!!! The photo is after I had separated the food!
Items removed from the menu/carpet and bathrooms
We moved away about fifteen years ago but have moved back to Mooresville. My favorite item was the stuffed French toast. It was wonderful. Your crepes and waffles are also gone. Would you consider putting at least the stuffed French toast back on the menu? We come to Bob Evans about 3 times a month. Your staff is excellent, the food is excellent but maybe...

Chunks of black dirt and it even smells like dirt when heating. This is the second one. I purchased at Walmart Branan Field Store in Middleburg, Fl The is so much I can’t even pick them out. Very disgusting. I’ve been eating these for months trying to gain some weight and aside from recent packaging issues where the seal is broken and seals not covering the product these are the worst by far. I couldn’t eat either of them. Please fix your product.
Desired outcome: Improve quality control fast
Veterans day breakfast not free as advertised
My husband and I arrived to take advantage of the Veterans Day offer of free entre. I showed my DD214 and my husband shoed his military ID. The waitresd said no problem you don't have to show it. She was pleasant and joyful. The breakfast was good. My eggs were more hard than easy, but I thought, it is free so I did not complain. We received a bill, so I thought they need to track their entres they give away. So when we went to present the check we were asked if we ordered from tne veterans menu, which we responded we were not given one. So we had to pay. It was not expensive so it was no problem. The fact that were showed our Veteran status and were not given the veteran menu, which would have been free by your advertisement is rude. It was the only reason we chose Bob Evans. I was quite upset.
Desired outcome: I would either like a refund or a coupon for two free meals to make up for the Veterans day blunder.
Family size macaroni & cheese
We were in a hurry, and purchased prepackaged Bob Evans macaroni and cheese (family size, as I was feeding my grandchildren) as a side dish for dinner.
As per directions, we added a slit in the plastic, etc. Upon peeling back the plastic to stir and continue cooking, there was a black substance in the corner of the container. It appeared to be mold.
I checked both the cardboard sleeve and the plastic film, it was not out of date.
I contacted Bob Evans, via a message on their facebook page, as I preferred not to plaster pictures all over, but no one has responded. Thus, I am here, adding a complaint to the numerous ones on this page.
Desired outcome: I want a refund. The cost is $5.49 plus tax. I also expect reimbursement for the replacement macaroni & cheese of $5.29 plus tax.
No banana bread served with take out orders
On October 30, 2022 I went into Bob Evans at 900 American Road in Lansing, Michigan and ordered 3 Turkey dinners to go. I waited for them to be put together and when I got home, I found that there was no banana bread for any of the orders and also that the cranberry sauce in each order had no cover on it allowing it to spill in the car. I was very upset. I wish in the future that mistakes like these would not happen.
Desired outcome: An apology would be nice and some kind of a refund would be nice also.
Carry out order placed on 19/29/2022 at 5:22 pm
I placed an online order to puck up at the new castle ,Pa location... when I got home the order wasn't complete as the chicken was not included with the family size salad I called to speak to a manager but was told I needed to return to the restaurant as he was busy. When I got there they informed me that I couldn't get a refund that it would take 3-5 business days. (I did return the food ) the order number is [protected]
Desired outcome: refund to my mastercard
Bad product
I have been using Bob Evans Sausage for years. I purchased the 30 pattie family pack. The sausage has a very bad taste and is almost all fat and the patties are almost white in color. I use this product all the time my package says best if used by 12-1-22. My grocer said he has had other complaints about this product. The cost was 9.95. I purchased this 0n 10 -22-22 from valeskies market in Meadville Pa.
Desired outcome: Please refund and explain how this happens.
I too have purchased the Pattie’s in 8 pack n the larger 30 pack TWICE.. SOMETHING HAD CHANGED IN THE TASTE, gross and tasted spoiled so thts twice in the 30 pack and once on the smaller pkg.. no more for me..
however the roll sausage still taste the same.. what are they doing to the Pattie’s? Ewww
The smell alone is enough to say yuck.. very unimpressed with this product after 40 years of buying it ..good bye Bob

I purchased mine in Dearborn county Indiana Kroger
I will say this was like a year apart from each purchase of the large box..so can’t be one batch so had to be something BOB is doing in the processing plant ! Or Krogers isn’t putting it away fast enough ?
Thanks for listening !

lack of quality of food, service and management
I'm certain, based on the terrible reviews for this location in Bridgeport, WV, that you are already aware of the total incompetency of the management and staff. My family has been going to this location for over 20 years and in the past few years it has completely changed in terms of service, quality and volume. This location was once packed daily. now you go there and it is nearly empty while it's competitors are booming. I walked in last Tuesday morning at 9:00am. there were only 7 cars in the parking lot. when i walked in, nobody greeted me. there was a cook leaning against the expo line and a young lady that worked there leaning towards him. looked very intimate. he made eye contact with me but neither one of them ever came to help me. nobody else came to the front. i finally walked out. last night i drove by at 7:15pm. there were no outside lights on. it was pitch black all the way around the building. there were a handful of cars in the parking lot. I'm sure you've seen a substantial decline in revenue at this location. it is a shame for our local community which once heavily supported this location
Desired outcome: new management would be a great place to start if you truly wish to keep this location open
Restaurant
My wife and I went in to the south Zanesville Ohio Bob Evans to order breakfast at roughly 10 AM up October 18th 2022 upon arrival after being seated I noticed pieces of food on the window of the decor there is also a large water spill staff kept tiptoeing around when I received my breakfast it was under Done and they were two separate long black hairs on each of the plates. I was hit with such an array of emotions I got up and left the restaurant. The waitress said “ the cook called off today” I don’t think that is acceptable no matter who was cooking I do have pictures of water on the floor and the food particles all over the decor. I had such an array of emotions I just left the restaurant
Desired outcome: I drove a half hour one-way for breakfast and my wife’s seems to me Bob Evans owes me a her a breakfast they also need to require hairnets when cooking food and cleaning
