I am a regular here; and with each visit comes a different experience. Overall, the good quality is good. However, its preparation and service depends on staff. As such today's visit went exceptionally well although it could have been just OK. Thanks to Hyme, I enjoyed real fried chicken with my waffle instead of chicken tenders. The display with the Daily Specials matters. After selecting from the menu, I then saw what I really wanted as a special item; and the manager, Hyme, quickly changed my order.

Bob & Edith's Diner is a great breakfast place for those who don't have to worry about them closing because they never do. Literally. The place is 24/7 and it is a big plus for those who can't find anything around Springfield when it's late. When it's late night, it can be kind of rough when it's packed with people coming from the bar next door or just a sudden group of hungry people wanting their breakfast fix. Like any breakfast places, it's quick, it's cheap, and affordable at a reasonable price. I went with what was comfort for me; Country Fried Steak with Scrambled Eggs and Hash Browns with White Toast. The sausage gravy that the used on the Country Fried Steak? It elevates it to a whole new level. Eggs tasted buttery, and Hash Browns crispy with a nice side of grease coming to it. I can't really complain because this is something I eat once in a while but it's my guilty pleasure. Overall, you can't go wrong with Bob & Edith's. They are just open at any time and you are rest assured that your breakfast will be good as mine. read more

The original location in Arlington is a local institution that has been around for over 50 years. They are your no frills diner giving you classic breakfast items. The food was great and super hearty. They have lots of options for whatever you are in the mood for and can customize your breakfast as you wish. Great breakfast spot! Keep in mind they do charge a credit card fee. Entrees: Western Omelette, Country Fried Steak with Grits and Two Eggs and Sausage read more

My family and I wanted to grab a quick lunch and found Bob & Edith's Diner. If you pay with a credit card, they charge a 3% fee; they have the notice posted on their doors. They are also open 24 hours! The service was quick, which I appreciated, and the food was typical diner fare. I wasn't wowed, but nothing tasted bad either. The ambiance was perfect, as there were many patrons--some family, some friends, and some just by themselves. I would go back if I need to grab a quick bite and don't want to go to fast food places like McDonald's. read more

The interior of the restaurant reminds you of an old timey diner which I enjoy myself. The waitress I had was super attentive and knew the menu before I could even finish my sentences. The food was made in adequate time for how many people were there. Temperature of the food was good, portion size was satisfying. For the amount of diner-style places I have been to, this place is on the lighter side of hitting the flavors but that could be good for some people. Overall I enjoyed the food and soaking in the time period experience this place is trying to convey. read more

It may not be gourmet, but it's the authentic classic American diner experience. A variety of menu options, large portions, quality ingredients, and open 24hrs. All hallmarks of the true diner experience. The service is pretty good, although it can be a little slow when they are really busy. In line with the classic experience, it also looks and feels the part. It makes sense that it is the authentic as the original diner was opened in 1969...when real diners were still relatively easy to find. Give them a try if you are used to going a certain silver-themed establishment, and you'll notice the difference right away. For those who tend to edge toward gourmet eats, if the line is too long, there is likely a Bob & Edith's around the corner. read more

I recently stopped by for a meal and had a generally positive experience. The food was a highlight, with a veggie omelette and grits paired with a toasted English muffin - a nice touch. Service was excellent, with speedy seating and an attentive server who checked in more than frequently. Most staff members were smiling, welcoming and helpful, although a few seemed less enthusiastic, offering brief, cold stares. I dined alone and was in and out within (30) minutes. The bar stool seating area where I sat seemed like an appropriate spot for solo diners like myself, and I appreciated the quick turnaround time. I had a direct view of the grill. With so many staff on hand, I can see that this was a well oiled machine type of operation. read more

We woke up craving pancakes for breakfast but were pleasantly surprised by the wide selection at Bob & Edith's Diner. We decided to order delivery instead and tried the steak n' cheese sub and country fried steak. Honestly, we weren't expecting too much, but the generous portions and freshness of the food really impressed us. Love their onion rings! Everything was delicious, and we truly enjoyed our breakfast. Happy tummy indeed! read more

We ordered to go and brought the food home! The Philly Cheesesteak and Country Fried Steak with Gravy were delicious! Unfortunately, instead of getting the Hot Turkey sandwich they gave us ham (or that's Turkey that tasted like ham.) When we went to order in the diner, it's a fifty's style place and very busy! I would highly recommend the cheesesteaks and country fried steak! read more

Stopped in on the way out of town headed back to Georgia. We didn't have many expectations, we just wanted a real breakfast that wasn't a drive-thru. I am so glad we stayed. It was seriously such a delicious and well prepared breakfast. I would seek this place out if back in the area. Everything we ordered, and I mean everything, was cooked exactly as I liked. The bacon was perfectly crisp, my eggs were cooked with no runny yolk, and the breakfast potatoes had just the right amount of onions. All three of us loved our food. And to top it off, the staff was super friendly. Loved this place! read more

Our family loves local restaurants when traveling instead of big chains. Stopped in to Bob and Edith's for dinner and was not disappointed. The classic diner decor is great. The fast and friendly service was fantastic. Best of all the food was perfect. Our group picked a classic grilled cheese, ham and cheese sub, and chicken fried steak - all were cooked perfectly. We'll definitely be back when in the area. read more

This location is one of many Bob & Edith's in Alexandria, Arlington and Springfield. I stopped here after work a few days ago with an craving for breakfast food despite the time of the day. The restaurant was fully staffed though there were only a few tables occupied. Comfortable quiet ambiance...and pleasantly not over-air-conditioned. I was greeted by a smiling friendly young woman who indicated I could sit anywhere. Upon being seated, I was promptly provided with a menu and water. I ordered the most basic of basic breakfasts: eggs, bacon, hash browns and toast. My food arrived in good time. All the items were decently prepared. Bonus points for the toast being buttered before it came out to my table. My server checked on me at least a couple times, and without prompting, gave me a water refill. I pulled the reins in on my appetite and opted against a shake, though I do know the shakes are very good at Bob & Ediths. Yes indeed, this is my go-to spot for a diner breakfast in Springfield. read more

This diner is located in a strip mall with a large parking lot, so parking is not an issue here. It dates back to 1969 an even though they are a self proclaimed Dallas Cowboy supporter, that will not affect my rating and review. The diner has a large dining area and serves a wide array of food including burgers, sandwiches, omelettes, soups, salads, waffles, pancakes and french toast. The staff there was friendly enough, but I will admit that my interaction with them was limited. This diner has a an old-school feel and is opened 24 hours which is a plus for those that have the late night munchies. I ordered a grilled cheese with a side of home fries. It took about 10 minutes for me to get my food. I was very unimpressed. The home fries lacked any flavor or taste. I could not even finish them. The grilled cheese was nothing special. I have made much better myself. As I alluded to, I was very disappointed. I would probably skip this restaurant and find another eatery. read more

Okay New Jersey diners are my favorite. Have to put that out here first, as it's a disclaimer of sorts. Bob and Edith's is amazing. Love their restaurants, and the only problem with this one, is Springfield Plaza's parking is a headache. Coffee and an aspirin helps. Go here or any of their locations. For this era of inflation, the cost is very reasonable. It's almost always full for a reason. Food here is so delicious. I love the pancakes especially, but they have lunch and dinner too. It's 24/7 and a clean spot. Incredibly good staff, this is a place to go to. Always have and shall continue to visit here, as it's always a worthwhile place. read more

Typical diner. I went in on a Fri night with my 2 teenage boys for milkshakes. Nothing mind blowing but good shakes. One odd thing, I was overcharged for my bill. I left no tip on the card b/c I left a 20% tip in cash. They still charged my card with a tip added on. I contacted my credit card company and the cleared it up but not sure what happened and I'm going to believe that an honest mistake was made. read more

This is every greasy breakfast diner's dream come true. Food is American style breakfast and lunch, 24/7 365 days a year. The staff is quick to get food out and are incredibly polite. The ambiance/vibe is eclectic diner vibes. It's bright, cold, clean enough, and you know what to expect when you come in. Lots of chatter and happy people with full tummies. This is our go to breakfast spot and the prices are perfect! read more

This is my second visit to the diner and I came back for the hash browns, not gonna lie. I grew up in the south and I miss my Waffle House hash browns! Bob & Edith's has the closest thing to that starchy goodness that I have found on the DMV. Fine dining it is not, but the people are friendly, the parking is plentiful, and the place is clean. Plus the coffee if good. read more

Let's get into it, Father's day prime time brunch hours We arrived, we waited in line for about 3-4 minutes, until we met with one of the servers who found us a "small booth" I asked if we can have a bigger booth but were informed they are only for parties 3+. However, there were a few patrons seated in bigger booths with only 2 people. Moving on to food, We ordered the country fried steak, how it comes with eggs and toast, and french toast with eggs and bacon and substituted home fries with grits. Two orange juices and water. I was a little dissapointed because the orange juice wasn't fresh squeezed it was from concentrate. I didn't mind it, but my boyfriend switched with Apple juice. Apple juice also wasn't authentic and very sugary! My eggs didn't not have a portionable amount of cheese We waited 30+ mins for our two plates of food, which weren't fresh and hot off the burner. The patrons who came in after us were served before we were. Once examining everything, they forgot my grits which I politely asked for them, and they were given to me. Total amount + tip equalled to $55 which, is mildly high and we could've received better food at Ihop. I tried to show a little grace because it was Father's day, So I should've expected longer than usual wait times, but I have nothing to do with low staffing, and the diner being understaffed for a busy holiday. I don't see myself returning, and that's also a little disappointing because this spot IN PARTICULAR had a lot of good reviews and highly rated, maybe that day was an off day for them given the volume. I'm hoping they'll improve the quality of the drinks & staffing situation to accommodate with a reasonable amount of wait time. read more

Whenever I have trouble sleeping, and I have a craving for some breakfast diner food, this is the place I go to satisfy my hunger. My go to item is the corned beef hash with eggs over easy, some hash browns and white toast. Paired with a glass of OJ and my hunger is sated. Open 24/7 with plenty of parking, this place is located near the Giant grocery store. I believe the original Bob and Edith's is in Arlington, which is quite a ways for me, so the Springfield location is my diner of choice. read more

Stopped by for a late breakfast, perfect weather for outside seating. The service is is great everyone works as a team. I was serviced by a few Edith's employees from the servers to the runners all were absolutely amazing. I ordered the a delicious breakfast with delicious turkey sausage home fries and perfect eggs. The toast was one of my favorites with butter spread and jelly. Combined with a cup of coffee and orange juice. I also loved how you had outdoor seating as well as Indoor both locations are comfortable. Great place to come enjoy alone or with friends and family. If you live in the area make sure to stop and enjoy the great menu. read more

Went for breakfast today to our favorite location in Springfield Plaza. The place was packed. We lucked out and got the only booth left open. Our server was amazing! She brought the food quickly and said she grabbed it as soon as the bell rang. Our food was hot, delicious, and cooked perfectly. Thanks Bob & Edith's for another awesome experience! read more

Came in for an early pre-ride breakfast and wasn't disappointed at all. First, being open 24 hours makes it very convenient for my early morning schedule. The restaurant is brightly lit and spotlessly clean. Grabbed a booth, which is spaced just right for someone my size. Simple breakfast menu, which is what I like in a diner. My bacon and eggs came out quickly and cooked just right. The rye toast is THICK and grainy, again a big plus. Service is amazing. A server was at my table almost immediately, asking for my drink order. My coffee appeared almost out of thin air, and again, the server was ready to go. Food came back pretty quick, and except for coffee refills, the server left me in peace. The check was promptly delivered (which doesn't happen in some places) and the bill was on par with other diners. Bob and Edith's keeps the spirit of the American Diner alive and kicking. I don't know how I've not been here before, but I for sure will be back. Thanks! read more

After visiting their other location in Arlington, as soon as this location came up in my search for diners one morning, I knew we had to go try them. It did not disappoint. Located in the corner of a shopping complex, you don't want to be looking for the silver diner building like in Arlington. They are tucked in, so be sure to keep your eyes out for it. Inside was very similar to the other location. The waitresses were all very friendly, we were sat right away, and before long we had our drinks. The coffee was just right, and my kids were happy to have lemonade and water. We ordered our food, and it came out quick, hot, and delicious. My egg sandwich with turkey sausage was perfectly cooked. The home fries had good flavor as well. My kids shared a waffle at the advice of the waitress based on the size. When I tell you that my youngest loved it (my oldest did too, but was still very tired from our trip), that should be the ultimate compliment. Because this child doesn't eat much of anything! He said it was the best waffle he had ever had. Once again, it was a great Diner experience. read more

Made a takeout order on phone told 10 mins. Got there for my tuna melt paid and waited and waited...there was ONE customer in there...then I heard 'bring me tuna' in Spanish and I looked at grill and she hadn't even started??! Seriously? What have you been doing?? Paid and left tip which I wish I hadn't got home and it's burnt to a crisp! Never again first and last time. No one in there looks or sounds like a bob or Edith either....so don't go if you think it's a mom and pop diner read more

Service was quick and the food is really good. It's a diner and looks like a diner. We came right after breakfast and before dinner on a Sunday hoping to get soup. They didn't have any because we were told that the kitchen was being cleaned and that there was no soup. Again regarding the ambience- it's a diner, it looks like a diner. Barry said that he thinks that the Silver Diner is better. I'm going to hold review judgment on that because when I get pancakes at the silver diner, they are cold. I didn't order pancakes here today- my hamburger was good. The reason for four stars is because they didn't have soup. This is a good value diner. read more

Poor service and the waiter ran off in the middle of an order. Order arrived wrong and with an allergen. Told that there was nothing that could be done because the griddle was being cleaned. I could have eaten the fries at least but the plate was taken away. I was charged for the soda so great customer care as in they don't give a damn. Spend money and time elsewhere. read more

I would say overall this place is average. It was very busy at noon on a Sunday. If I go back I will definitely sit outside. It was excruciatingly loud inside. Like racetrack or casino loud. Not very pleasant. The servers were busy and not necessarily that friendly. With that said, the food was fine for breakfast. I had a steak and cheese omelette. I like that they offer hash browns or home fries- not all breakfast places do that. My Mom ordered pancakes and eggs. The pancakes were just ok, nothing fantastic. We had to ask for coffee refills. We didn't have very attentive service.The food came out at a reasonable pace. The chairs are not comfortable. Maybe the booths are better. I had to change my son in the bathroom on the changing table. The table was generally in good condition and it was fine enough. Overall an ok experience but there are a few other places I would go to before running back here. read more

I came here for brunch and I ordered 2 eggs scrambled well with cheddar cheese, scrapple cooked crispy, grits and 2 buttermilk biscuits.

It's definitely not the same quality as it used to be. prices are absolutely not ok for what you're eating. they're charging First watch type prices but they aren't first watch. I'd just recommend going to first watch instead. it's not aesthetically appealing and the food quality truly took a huge hit. the service is good depending on who's the server, it could be a good experience or a very crappy one. read more

I tried this restaurant for the first time today for breakfast. When the toast came, it had very little butter. So I asked the person walking by to come over. He turned out to be a manager named Aaron (could be spelled different). I showed him the toast and said they didn't really butter it and so I'd like to get more butter. He looked at the toast and rudely said, "it's buttered! But if you want more butter then yes I'll get you some." I said wait a minute. You're going to tell me that you consider this little tiny spot of butter enough, and that toast is properly buttered. He said "yes it is buttered. But I will get you more if that's what you want." I thought as the manager, Aaron would want to know that the kitchen is sending out the toast with VERY little butter so that he could correct it. Instead, he treats me rudely as he explained it was properly buttered. I asked him for his name and if he was the manager. He told me his name was Aaron, and then he leaned in to tell me that he wasn't just the manager, he was the district manager (I can't remember if he said 'district' or something else but it was higher management), as if that gave him permission to be so rude. There was no reason for this to turn out the way it did. All he needed to say was, "no problem, let me get you more butter." He didn't have to attack me saying that the toast was properly buttered, especially when it clearly wasn't. This was the first and last time I will be going to any of the Bob & Edith Diner's. read more

Went on a Saturday morning around 11:00AM. Large crowd which is normal. Scrapple was served perfectly. The server was nice and friendly. Only downside was coffee didn't taste great. But Bob and Edith's is a staple in the area. Service, food, and menu are pretty consistent all over. read more

I can't comment on the food because the waitress forgot to serve us. The place was not busy. I caught the waitress's eye across the room after waiting for a long time. She yelled out across the restaurant if we wanted our check. I informed her we never got served. She immediately comes with my cold food and said it just came out of the kitchen. I understand people forgot but the service made me nervous that I would be paying for what would definitely be a reheated microwave meal. Will not be returning. read more

This is honestly my favorite late night diner and I don't understand why the reviews are so low :( First if all, for late night they have pretty good and fast service. The food is really good -- I had 8oz steak with mashed potatoes and home fries. My friend had the fried chicken with potato salad and my other friend had pork chops with coleslaw. We shared all our meals and everything was pretty darn good. The steak was cooked to a perfect medium rare and paired soooo well with the mash potatoes. The home fries on the other hand were super dry, the flavor was there, but it was too dry to finish. We finished off with a banana spilt and honestly a good perfect end from a night out at the bars. read more

Stopped in to get the kids something to eat in the evening and was really disappointed as a first timer. Score: 3 - Bacon, egg, cheese sub with fries: This wasn't that bad and a decent choice. Score 2.5: Cheesesteak with onion rings: The steak had some flavor and cheesy, but it was mid overall. The onion rings were ok at best. Score 0: Kids burger with bacon: Unfortunately the burger meat had no taste and didn't taste like a burger at all. I wouldn't recommend this as an option to anyone. Also, buyer beware, when you order an apple juice. They say this place is much better for breakfast, but it's going to be tough for me to go back for a second try. read more

Cute and kitschy little stop! The grits were delish - eggs were adequate. We enjoyed the breakfast but felt it was a bit pricey $50 for two for eggs. Worth the stop if your hungry but could probably find something more affordable. read more
