Bob Evans overall customer service

On 11/21/2017, I and two friends had lunch at the Bob Evans restaurant in Phoenixville, PA.

My two friends ordered breakfast and I ordered a half sandwich and small bowl of chili.

The service was very slow, the waitress apologized several time, and my chili was brought to me after I had already eaten my sandwich and my friends had finished their breakfast.

There are definite problems with this location and its service levels.

Bob Evans family style turkey dinner

On 11-22-17 I picked up you family style turkey dinner.

Disappointed, as the gravy and corn containers were only half full. Seems like their cutting back. The gravy containers were only half full, not enough to cover for the amount of mashed potatoes received. The corn was only half full. On previous orders, I ordered green beans and received twice as much then the amount of corn.

This is the fourth year I have ordered this dinner for Thanksgiving. As it is too much for me to cook a full thanksgiving dinner.

Bob Evans mac and cheese

The noodles were overcooked and the sauce was runny and chunky. Absolutely terrible. Had to throw it out! Wasted my money and it looks like I'm not the only one who had a problem. Might want to do something about it. We deserve something for our inconvenience! I've never had a problem til now. Was purchased at Walmart in lebanon tn. Proof of purchase [protected].

Bob Evans mac and cheese

I just came back from Publix today, November 14th. I live in Orlando, FL. I've always loved Bob Evans Mac and Cheese, I eat it all the time. It's my absolute favorite. But the Bob Evans Mac and Cheese I've had today was absolutely terrible. I had to throw it out. It was definitely spoiled. I though maybe it was expired but it says it's good until December 5th. It even smelled bad but thought I would take a couple bites anyway. Bad idea. It was so gross. I have NEVER had this happen. Bob Evans products are usually always great but this one was just down right disgusting. Please make sure that your products are still good before you ship them out. I would hate to not be able to eat my favorite Mac and Cheese.

Bob Evans bob evans macaroni and cheese

I've been a patron of Bob Evans restaurant and groceries for many years. My family especially loves the macaroni and cheese, which is why I'd normally buy several at a time.

On November 11, 2017, I purchased 2 packs of 2 Bob Evans macaroni and cheese from Walmart in North Little Rock, AR on McCain Blvd. When I went to warm up the mac/cheese, I almost vomited from the odor invading my nostrils. Clearly it was spoiled. I opened the other 3 mac/cheese and they were spoiled as well.

I contacted Walmart who amicably offered to replace the mac/cheese, which they did. This time both Walmart and I checked the expiration dates on the new mac/cheese (12/13/2017) and was satisfied that it wasn't bad.

Before warming the mac/cheese up for my daughter I decided to sniff it just to be sure, and I vomited everywhere. The smell was so disgusting--rotten cheese. Despite that the expiration date hadn't come to past, the entire batch of mac/cheese is spoiled.

As a matter of fact, I contacted Walmart to inform them that they needed to remove the entire batch of mac/cheese because it's all spoiled. It could possibly make someone ill. Walmart staff then opened a fresh pack of Bob Evans mac/cheese and discovered that it too was spoiled. They promptly removed the entire batch, as suggested.

This is disgusting. Bob Evans is either marking expiration dates on products that are already expired or products are going bad during transport, which in any case it's still your fault.

Citizens trust the products that you package to be safe. We have faith that Bob Evans practice measures that ensure quality products. I've personally believed that Bob Evans was a business of integrity. Not so much anymore.

Your disgustingly spoiled mac/cheese could've caused my baby to become ill.

Sorry, I just want to add one more thing to Tafe, this is not another reply but I forgot to add this in my original reply. I am sure that if you attacked just Rita she would not fight back, but once you started messing with her daughter and posting comments about her calling her horrible names you pushed her buttons. It is one thing for you to mess with her, but to post comments about her child, any decent loving parent would be triggered by that and respond back. But then again you already knew this would trigger her since that is what trolls do right.

While tafe is being immature and rude here, you are the adult here and therefore should ignore him. What he is doing is trolling. Most likely he or she is 10-14 years old. Trying to get you to reply back and you are falling into his trap. As for tafe. Does your mom know what you are up to? The only one that needs a good slap or spanking is you. Joking and even making comments about Rita daughter committing suicide is a very serious issue and you should not joke about that or make comments about her committing suicide. It is a very sensitive issue here, and some posters may have had a friend or family member commit or attempt suicide. Or maybe they attempted it themselves. Anyways you can reply back to me and abuse me if you want Tafe, but this is my first and last response to you. The only reason that I am responding to you is to get you to think about the sensitive topic you are taking lightly. As for Rita I am sure that once she realized she is feeding your trolling and stooping to your level she will stop replying to you. Also before correcting Nicholas on his spelling and grammar work on your own. Your immature posts about suicide as well as your own grammar shows that you are probably in Junior high.

Oh my. Is it truly an adolescent? Oh dear, I hope I havent been arguing with an actual child. I mean, I assumed that it was mentally unstable, but now you're saying it may be a child. Well if this is the case, Im embarrassed. I thought it was a grown woman attacking my child and I over a mac/cheese complaint. Oh wow.

Bob Evans service

Store was Washington Pike in Bridgeville/Collier. We sat down and there were coffee mugs on the table upside down. We turned them over and they were dirty. There were coffe grounds in the mug. I asked for new mugs she asked why. Then she turned them upside down at another table for someone else to use. Besides her loud behavior which we could live with if everything else was clean. She served food to tables that came well after us. Other tables had that happen to them as well. Our order was not correct. The cashier didn't even ask how our meal or service was. I guess she knew better. We won't be back. It's a shame too. We used to go monthly.

The manager may have been preoccupied with other customers. Either way, you have no proof that you were discriminated against and did not provide any evidence here. You had a negative experience and they provided you with free food as compensation. In regards to getting an attorney, you have no case. You got your food for free and that is the most that any restaurant can be expected to do.

Bob Evans chopped steak dinner

The taste was terrible. I ordered mashed potatoes with gravy. There was so much gravy on them they were soup like. The flavor of the gravy was bad and artificial. The sauteed onions were not cooked properly. It was like they were still crisp. Very dissatisfied customer. It was a carry out so I could not send it back. Also I arrived 5 minutes early and the foid was already ready to go and was only luke warm.

Two trips to Bob Evans in the past couple years (I hadn't been in one in 15 years previously) was just horrible. Worst food I was ever served anywhere at any time in 60 years, both locations. Horrible service too. And the place pretty empty too, both times. Bob Evans is circling the drain. I won't be back. BTW, Bob Evans frozen sausages have deteriorated to the point I just threw the junk out. B.E. is soon to be history I bet.

Bob Evans multiple complaints!

1. On Sunday, October 15, 2017 we placed a call-in order to go in the amount of approximately $50.00. When we arrived home, we realized we had been shorted a pumpkin bread loaf & a side order of grits. I called and spoke with the "manager" and she said I could come back; however, if I went back to pick up the items, out other food would be cold. I was very upset due to the time I had to take away from our family time and breakfast because someone did not check the to go order. She took my contact information and assured me she would put a gift card in the mail. Which I told her would have been fine.

2. It takes 1-2 days for mail to get from Bob Evans Bluefield, VA to my house in Bluefield VA. Each day I have checked the mail to receive nothing from bob evans! You absolutely cheated me out of my money!

Now I have to take time out of my very busy day to attempt to recover the money your company owes me!

I doubt I will ever go back to any bob evans again!

Sincerely,

Bob Evans service

Tuesday, 10/10/17 @ 6:17pm: Went to Bob Evans in Mount Dora, FL. Took food way too long to come out, food was only slightly warm, coffee also. Waitress Lauren, with her yeahs, uh huhs & lack of personality, needs to find another line of work, because being a Waitress is not for her. Manager, just as rude, plus couldn't understand a word he said & he was sweating so profusely, I thought he was going to pass out. Won't be going back anytime soon. A very unsettling experience.

Bob Evans bob evans original pork sausage

To Whom it May Concern:

I purchased your Bob Evans Original Pork Sausage on 10/7/2017 from Super Giant in Long Neck, Delaware (Millsboro). When I was in the middle of cooking I flipped one of the patties over and a roundworm was curled up on top of the patty! My concern is some of these were made yesterday morning and consumed! We always purchase this product and have never seen this before. I would like to speak with someone regarding this terrible situation!

I had been buying Bob Evans Mashed Potatoes faithfully for years and they had always been delicious, but during the last year or so something has changed. The taste is different, plus they are lumpy and have a strange consistency. I have stopped buying them because something is not right. What changed?

That stuff has deteriorated to worse than mystery meat. I threw the last box I bought in the garbage. Yuck! Like everything "Bob Evans" these days (including the restaurants) total inedible junk. Bet they go under. I'm sure Bob's great grandkids are set for life - who needs the hassle, eh?

Bob Evans dinner portions

10-1-17 I placed an carry out order on line. I ordered 1 meat loaf dinner & 2 turkey 3-course dinners & added a cup of the potatoe cheese soup. Not until I got home did we realize that the turkey dinners only had 2 slices of turkey on a giant pile of stuffing & no cranberry sauce. I feel cheated out of a turkey dinner! For $12.99 the meal should have more turkey & all its sides. Was I paying for a stuffing dinner or turkey? Because all we got was stuffing! Was very disappointed!

The potatoe cheese soup was not very good, more like potatoes in cheese sauce. Cheese was too thick to be soup & soup was plain, just cheese & potatoes.Worst cheese potatoe soup I ever had!

Bob Evans complaining about being charged $10.00 for bread with dinner meal

On 9/22/17 my family and I went to Bob Evans on IAA Dr in Bloomingdale, IL. We asked for bread during our dinner from the waitress...She went and got 2 biscuit's, and 2 dinner rolls on the first round...The second round my husband asked if he could have 2 more dinner rolls...The waitress said "Yes"...He got his other two dinner rolls...When we finished eating and asked for the ticket, she charged an extra $10.00 for the bread and rolls...When we questioned why we were being charged $10.00 for the bread she and the manager said it was because he didn't order the 3 course dinner and that unlimited bread comes with ordering any of the 3 course dinners...The manager was very unprofessional about the way she communicated to us about the whole ordeal. Our desired resolution is a refund of the $25 we paid for the whole meal...

Bob Evans bob evans original mashed potatoes

I served 2 family size packs of mashed potatoes to my family. They spit it out. It taste kind of like metal. I bought them last week as well and we had the same problem. I am disappointed and I paid 5.00 per pack. The bar code number on one box is [protected]. Is there a recall on this product? The fact that I need to write to you even more than I wanted for you to read it is Rediculous. I buy this product all of the time. I save the boxes. I would like the items replaced or I would like a refund. Please look into this matter. It taste like something is in the potatoes. I bought them at Acme market.

I have been using the mashed potato for years. Sometimes I have a little problem with taste but don't think twice about it but tonight was AWFUL! I can't even describe the taste but to say I thought they tasted like pure vinigar! They were so bad I'm almost afraid I gave us food poison! I am so disappointed and upset!

Bob Evans deep dish chicken and mashed potatoes.

Went to the local Bob Evans 9-14-17. I ordered my favorite deep dish chicken and mash potatoes. It was awful.It was all dark meat with pieces of skin and grissel.When I showed the waitress, she said thats the way it comes.I asked for a extra plate to put the slimey skin on to show the kitchen, but was not offered a replacement.I would like to be reimbursed for the meal that I did not eat.
