Welcome to the Bob Evans Rewards mobile app, where you can order pickup or delivery and earn rewards just for dining at Bob Evans when you download the app! You can create an account to save your favorite orders, find nearby locations and get rewarded on your birthday with a special treat. In the Bob Evans Farmhouse Kitchen you can always find farm fresh, homestyle meals created with our special touch, just like Bob intended. It all started 70 years ago with a 4-stool, 6-table diner in Rio Grande where Bob and Jewel welcomed family and friends. Today, we do the same with our Farmhouse Kitchen menu filled with fresh ingredients harvested each season from farms across America. We believe the best of the season tastes even better when it’s fresh from the crate to your plate!

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

El Canelo holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bob Evans has 31K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of El Canelo's written reviews are positive against 69% of Bob Evans's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

El Canelo ships an update every 49 months, Bob Evans every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 26, 2026 respectively.
