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.

We believe the best of the season tastes even better when it’s fresh from the crate to your plate!
