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!
