We stopped here on a Wednesday our way home from Spokane to Bonney Lake. The parking lot looked busy but not full; Walked in right about noon. We we're seated quickly, the server stopped by right away and took our drink order( just waters for both of us) and said she'd be right back to take our orders. She did came back fairly soon, took our orders (writing everything down), she was pleasant and efficient. My Hubby had a salad which came out right away and then things went downhill!!!! After his salad, we waited about 30 minutes and asked about the rest of our food, we were told the kitchen was really busy and it would be right out, 15 minutes later we asked for our check so we could leave; the waitress pointed out that my food was up and hubby was being plated; she asked if we'd rather have it to go but Hubby is driving our MH with a car in tow; not able to eat while driving!!!! The manager brought us our food, we asked for the bill and gulped down our food. When hubby looked at the bill they hadn't comped us anything!!! Now we didn't ask; but it would have been nice and sort of expected that they would do something for such a long wait. The food was actually pretty good, but we weren't able to actually enjoy it. read more

This is your usual highway diner that also serves some of the local farmers based on who was in the restaurant at the time of our visit. The food was decent but nothing to write home about. Pricing is a bit on the high side but that can be expected being a stop just off I90. Service was efficient albeit not very friendly. I think our server has been here a while and might just be tired of people. Overall an experience that would drive us to one of the many other options in the immediate area. read more

Bob's Cafe- first time visit to the Moses Lake area and found Bob's Cafe for a take out meal. Overall, it seems to have the feel of a truck stop/ local diner. We stopped in the beautiful area of Moses Lake late in the evening and looking for some sort of food options while on the road. Not sure if it would be dine in or take out. We had already stopped at a Mexican restaurant that announced they were closed as soon as we walked in, and then we found a Chinese place that had options laid out similar to a "Panda" next to Starbucks... one look at those dried out trays of steam table food made us about face! LOL! We found Bob's Cafe across the highway and decided to try a take out order since it was getting late. We were greeted by a twenty-something with a great attitude and a rather ironic sense of humor of a 60 year old veteran waitress! We decided to try the night's hot plate special- Salisbury steak with mushroom gravy, baked potato, side salad and a dinner roll the size of a bodybuilder's shoe! Price was reasonable and portion size was enough for two of us to share. Especially with that giant loaf of a dinner roll. Flavor was good diner quality. It was quite reminiscent of the old school TV dinner or school lunch, but in a good way. Hot, meaty, load of gravy. Gravy lacked salt, but ground beef was salty- so it balanced out. All in all a good take out meal at a pretty reasonable price. We want to try it for breakfast and eat in. We loved that the inside was decorated with lots of photos and memorabilia that represented the local community, with an emphasis on area youth involved with livestock and farming. That was nice to see! Couldn't help but notice the overall star average of Bob's is rather low. We are hopeful they can work on bumping it up and we are rooting for them because we believe in locally owned restaurants and businesses. Go Bob's Cafe! read more

Turned away on Father's day because we had 7 people in our group. We were long time patrons but new management or just this one lady ruined Father's Day for our group. Didn't give us any sort of options, just "we don't have room to seat 7" mind you this is an average size group for us, and we used to average once a week dining. read more

Traveling through to Spokane and stopped here for breakfast. We ordered the #3 and added 2 pancakes. Our server was great- attentive and had the entire room to the right. She kicked butt for only one person! The food was fine (hash is very salty), however for ONE meal and one coffee we were charged 24$ and some change....... one meal. I was in complete shock and so was the table right next to us who was questioning their bill loudly enough so we could hear. The menu needs some work. Maybe add prices for add ons or maybe give people more options for breakfast as it was limited. We couldn't finish what we were given and we don't like wasting food. So smaller portion options would've been nice. read more

Bobs Cafe - The #3 added pancakes - Cafes Near Me - Moses Lake, Washington

The service was great, the staff is welcoming, respectful and cheerful! Overall I did enjoy their company and brief exchanges! The Eggs Benedict however has so far been the worst I have ever had. Which is typically my consistent default. This being my first time I have refused to finish my meal is a glaring case and point. The hash browns had a delicious outer crunch and expected hue but the facade was broken after the first bite, mush, a pudding might be a better description. My last hope was for the eggs. But unfortunately I was disappointed again, the ham was seemingly pre-sliced/pre cooked. The English muffin was again seemingly bought from a nearby store. Next year when we visit I hope to try again to see their improvements. read more

The service here is really good and it was really busy on a Sunday morning. The food quality vs price has something to be desired. I had the chicken fried steak, it was very food service sysco. I would just think an independent restaurant could do better then that? read more

It is the same place I have know for 35 years. Good solid food, clean with solid service. It is not fancy and if it was, that would ruin it. Keep it up read more

The service was fine but the food was not goid at all (turkey dinner). The prices have gone way up in the past couple of years and the food quality has gone way down. read more

Came in for lunch on a Saturday and it was busy. Only had to wait a few minutes to seat our group of 8. Server was friendly, service was slightly slow and food was good but not great. Vibes are very much a diner/cafe and old fashioned feel. read more

When in dire need of some breakfast food, the ABSOLUTE LAST place I would've ever went to was here. That's just simply a matter of location. I don't even know how the hell I have a friend that lives in Moses Lake, which is figuratively as far as you can get from California. Yet here I was, in some diner in the middle of nowhere. Based on all the reviews I've seen (well, 47...not like I'm expecting a diner in the middle of nowhere to have a ton), seems like the food can be hit or miss. I tell you what though, my omelet and hash browns were ON FREAKING POINT. The portions were large and the food was cooked damn well with my certified approval. Absolutely what I needed and totally hit the spot! Oh and this place in the middle of nowhere takes AMEX? Yeah, you guys rock. You win for sure! read more

Nice diner. The food is pretty good - if your hungry try the double bacon burger - double stack of 1/4 lb patties with lots of bacon and cheese - I could hardly finish that huge meal!! Service is really slow, prices are fair. read more

Disappointment. I got a French dip: there were two slices of dry beef? on it. It was very small. I had to put salt in the au jus to give it a flavor. It comes with no sides and costs $10. My companion's eggs Benedict: hard yolks. Packages hollandaise sauce. He did get plenty of unremarkable hash browns. When your food tastes like packaged shit and you don't put effort into making it, then you season it with despair... you get Bob's. read more

My wife and I stopped by on our way to back to the western part of Washington. We got two kids breakfasts, a burger for me and wife got steak and eggs. Not only did did we have to wait an hour for our meals in a restaurant that wasn't busy, the steak and burger were supposed to be med rare and medium and when we got them. They were cooked beyond oblivion. Honestly the worst burger I have ever had. Was hard like a hockey puck, charred. Do not recommend, you are better off going with gas station food. read more

It's what I would have expected, basic diner food. Nothing special. The food isn't anything noteworthy or super delicious. Just good old greasy comfort food. The service was super attentive. Very friendly. Always asking if we were going okay and if she can refill our coffee. Our glasses were never empty Huge portions for the price. Like $12 for a omelette, big pile of hash browns and 2 biscuits. $2 for a GIANT cookie that's as big as your face. Coffee was .93 with never ending refills. Don't come here if you expect noteworthy food, but do if you want a cute, local diner that fills you up read more

Very good food , serving are amble and prices were reasonable . The day we were there Morial day, and they were a little bit hammered and Service what is a little slow not sure why, but I assume it's hard to get people to work especially on holiday weekends hopefully their worker they can get more workers. We always stop there when we were running through Moses Lake as we know it's good food. read more

Friendly, efficient service, the prices were more than reasonable, and we all three enjoyed everything we ordered. ( Club sandwich on croissant, waffles with sausage patties, and your basic hashbrowns and eggs with gravy...and they had a really lovely blackberry syrup :) ) Plenty of everything, and the staff was on the ball with the coffee refills. I'm VERY surprised at the negative reviews that I've just read here. I highly recommend Bob's, and will go back often. read more

I had the senior chicken strips and fries. The strips were obviously frozen and of Walmart quality. The fries were also frozen (in Grant County?). The tarter sauce was terrible. My wife had the grilled turkey sandwich. It had a kind of funny (not fresh taste). My wife thought that her sandwich came with lettuce and tomato. When it didnt my wife called the waitress over to tell that my wife thought the sandwich came with L&T. The waitress, instead of saying that the menu did not call for L&T and offering to bring some, goes and gets the menu and show my wife that it did not have L&T. "Ok" my wife says, "may I have some L&T?" Off the waitress goes and a few minutes later she brings a plate with some kind of wilty looking lettuce (no tomato). Then when the bill comes, we see they had charged us 75 cents for the lettuce. No big deal but definitely not customer friendly. I would have given Bob one star but I saw plaque in the restaurant saying he had supported 4H for 40 years. Atta boy, Bob. read more

Not worth it. The food is extremely overpriced for what your get. The chicken strips looked the the ones served at a high school cafeteria. The French dip is so sad. You get a few pieces of dry meat in between a even sadder roll. BUT worst of all is the Caesar salad. They use iceberg lettuce mix that must of been 3 days old because the lettuce what so soggy. The chicken on the salad was completely unseasoned and over cooked. They charge 15.00 dollars and the salad didn't even come with crouton?? Save your time and money; go somewhere else. I do want to add that our server was lovely and the restaurant did seem clean. read more

Support your local business! It's the American thing to do. We read most your reviews, and rather than finding the nearest exit we opted to give them a chance. I'm glad we did. Husband ordered the Tuna Melt, I ordered the BLT, not gourmet nor from my kitchen, but it was good. The fries were not greasy and the sandwiches were tasty. What surprised us the most was the quickness in serving our meal. A lot of the bad reviews mention lengthy delivery of the order. Was it during rush hour? Was the restaurant slammed at the time? Hmmmm... just wondering. Furthermore, we like real cream an honey in our coffee, all we had to do was ask...yay! One negative. The bathrooms needed considerable amount of attention. Our waitress Adala was terrific. read more

On a recent trip up Highway 17, I needed some Yelp to find a hearty breakfast. At the urging of Georgia's review, I had to stop at Bob's. This place was exactly what I was hoping for, CLASSIC diner fare. I ordered a sausage and cheese omelet and added mushrooms. I substituted a pancake for the toast/hashbrown combo - and I am here to tell you, I could not finish. The omelet was perfectly cooked; the cheese and sausage melted tastefully with the fresh mushrooms. The pancake was definitely homemade, not a frozen rubbery wonder from the chain restaurant across the street. My waitress was friendly and efficient; my coffee was always full, but she never once bothered me with too many questions to check in on me. Before I left, I bought a few treats for the road. They have GINORMOUS cookies, brownies, and rice krispie treats for just $1.75. Overall, this was a great 'travel' experience. Great service, classic taste, big portions, and friendly service. Bob's definitely delivered. read more

Bob, you did good. My boyfriend and I decided to split a cheeseburger and some wings after being on the road for 4 hours. This is a nice stop, they have free magazines and newspapers and roomy booths to relax. The wings were a no go. No sauce, no spice at all, just fried wings with ranch sauce. Disappointing. The cheeseburger was good! Or maybe I was just hungry. Came with legitimate toppings, fresh onions, lettuce, tomatoes and a tasty 1000 island type of sauce. I also got a side salad. Which was iceberg, croutons and ranch. Pretty plain, but it was perfect to me. The more I think about it, the more I loved that ranch. Wish I knew what it was. They carry pepsi products, and I had a glass of wine- which met my standards as a decent glass. They drop off the check off at your table, when you're ready pay at the front desk. On your way out you can pick up some candy bars or homemade treats (we got a rice krispy bar!) read more

Just called to place ONE breakfast takeout order and the gal on the phone asked me to please hold, I waited for 8 min and then I was hung up on. Gave her the benefit of the doubt, called back super nice and let her know I was put on hold and hung up on I'd please like to order just one thing and she then said "PLEASE HOLD" As a small business owner in the service industry I'd be beside myself if my staff treated customers that way and then didn't take the opportunity to rectify the situation when given the opportunity. Really bad. read more

Finally, real hot roast beef sandwiches like they used to make. Great service too. Cannot imagine anyone rating this less than 5 stars.

This was probably the worst meal I've had in 2018.

My father and I went for dinner last night. Normally we only have breakfast, but it was a prime rib night. We both ordered a 10oz cut with a baked potato and salad. Pretty hard to mess up. First, the salad was nasty iceberg lettuce that was discolored. But after the first bite I realized they don't spin it after washing! I had a soupy salad and couldn't even deal with it. The waitress was inexperienced and brought us our prime rib, but didn't clear the salad plates, ok, I can deal it isn't a fine dining place. The medium rare cuts were ice cold! My dad wasn't even given a cm of Au jus. So we asked for more. 15 mins. for her to bring it out. The plate came with vegetables. Well go to Walmart and buy a bag of dollar frozen cut broccoli and carrots, it was just as cold. Needless to say, if you go, stick with breakfast. read more

Service is awful, but the restaurant was packed. The servers were clearly understaffed. I ordered a Turkey sandwich but ended up getting a melt. Nice process cheese that tasted microwaved imo. All the food and fries were screaming for salt, completely bland. This is consistent with the clients that were mostly above 60. Shari's is up the road, go there. Disappointed read more
