We had a large party. My food came out quick. The food was hot. The service was fast. They delivered to the wrong people on every visit. The waiter was nice and friendly. read more

Served my order with no silverware. And finally brought plasticware..."we have no clean knives". Chicken over cooked and over salted. Waitstaff sitting to eat in between customer service. Awful experience and food...rather get gas station food. read more

Service was awesome. The bartender did very well. Food was very good. I had the steak and my other half had the salmon both were delicious.

Here's why this Applebee's Grill + Bar gets 3 stars from our 9/28/2023 dinner... My girls and I just attended their school's fall family event. We just wanted to sit and talk before eating so I suggested Applebee's because they had "something for everyone." Parking was easy. Clean parking lot. We were seated by a very nice young hostess right away. When we left, though, she looked at me. I smiled. She was scowling after speaking with a fellow employee. C'mon girl! Shape up big girl style. We had the nicest waitress we could've asked for... she was patient. Kind. Took care of us quickly. However, I noticed we were charged an apple juice ($1.99) that they didn't have. Our Meal: + "Tipsy Zombie ($5.00) + Fiesta lime chicken ($14.99) + Kid's pineapple juice ($.99) + Kid's milk - do not recommend if you prefer your child has whole or 2%. This was 1% in a bottle. Yuck. ($1.99) + Kid's meal - chicken finger's & mozzarella cheese sticks ($6.79) + Kid's meal - mac n cheese with yogurt & strawberries ($6.79) It was an okay meal overall. My daughter ate and enjoyed part of my chicken. The gummy brains was a nice touch on my alcoholic beverage. Hotels are nearby. Decent for a drink and hot meal. read more

If you're not a local, this isn't the place for you, at least not at the bar. The bartender let my simple order of chips and salsa come and go as she was so busy chatting w the young boys sitting next to me that she didn't even remember taking my order and sent them back until I asked about my order. read more

Food was delicious but service was so slow. No silverware no napkins no plates for appetizer. Asked for mustard on burger no mustard. Asked for no onions or mushrooms guess what it had.... from what I gathered there was 2 servers on the floor one bartend and one host read more

Service was horrible, will not recommend to eat here with a large group. I had never experienced this at any other Applebee's but this one. read more

I feel like Applebees are a hit or miss. The service was lovely. Everyone was very friendly and polite. The waitress could have been a LITTLE more present. The ambience was like any other Applebees. The food was a bit of a miss unfortunately. My husband's steak was overdone. My pasta was dry and our friends chicken sandwich was dry and a bit flavorless. read more

One of the few places open in Hobbs past 8 pm... one things about Applebee's is that it's consistent and you know what you're getting. Our group liked their margaritas and there were happy hour drink specials after 9 pm. I got the chicken tender smaller plate with fries. The rest of our group got the alfredo pasta, 4 cheese mac and cheese tenders, and a steak. Our waitress was friendly, but unfortunately, we were witness to a bar fight. Don't let that scare you off though, as management acted quickly to resolve the situation and the police arrived to take care of the rest. 2021 #15 read more

We ate on a Saturday evening and waited about 15 minutes for a table, We had all you could eat riblets for 14.99, they were excellent. Our waitress was very good, so service and food was 5 star! read more

Always good and the service is decent most of the time. It can get quite busy but it's always a good spot to go with good food!

Terrible hostess that don't want to do there job. Waited 30 min for a table for 1 in the bar with multiple tables available. Rude communication skills. Just a terrible experience thank God I wasn't trying to take the family out. read more

We ate ate this Applebee's yesterday, it was pathetic. The waiter could give a crap about anything. The salads we ordered were frozen lettuce, spoiled strawberries, no dressing. Total disappointment. They mind as well shut down and do us all a favor. And this is being nice! read more

Food was alright. A bit bland but still good, Service was pretty good, and the Ambiance was ok.

im not from this. Me and my wife stop to get a quick meal before heading back home to Tx. The hours open until 12 was what we seen online. We walked in at 11:10pm We were told by the bartender and manager that they did last call 15 minutes ago. We said we are not here to drink we wanted to eat. He said the kitchen was closed as well, but when I looked around at a full restaurant people were placing orders and drinks were still being made. This place is the worst I've ever been to.I got names and you best believe I'll be talking to corporate very soon read more

Five stars for our server Venesia! She is epic. The menu is extensive and inexpensive. The place is very clean. The food was plentiful but nothing special. read more

Applebee's Grill + Bar - Sports Bars Near Me - Hobbs, New Mexico

The service was not good at all. The food was dry like it's been sit waiting . The place wasn't even packed. I don't recommend this place.

Sorry service, rude waitstaff, you cannot get waited on in a timely matter, sorry attitudes. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

The perfect margarita is always a winner, although they forgot the garnish on my drink...that is what makes the drink "perfect". I ordered French onion soup, delicious! I ordered the pub pretzels...they must have been sitting for a while because the pretzels looked "wilted" and they were not crispy. Service was good. read more

A long awaited visit to this Hobbs Applebee's...reunited and it felt so good! I visited this Applebees right after trying my luck at the casino and needless to say this Applebees is one of my favorites to go dine at. We began the sampler appetizer and it was delicious! After a great start up, my order of Parmesan Shrimp and Sirloin with loaded mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables arrived at our table, it was mouthwatering and tasted great, steak has a ridge of fat otherwise the food was great, yet again Applebees isn't too notorious for steaks so what did I expect. lol All in all, the SERVICE WAS EXCELLENT AND SO WAS THE FOOD, EXCEPTIONAL APPLEBEES, I DO RECOMMEND IT IF IN THE AREA. read more

We were seated immediately and were so happy that we didn't have to wait. That should have been our first clue. Our appetizer came fairly quick. Our food took a ridiculous amount of time to get to our table. When they handed my granddaughter her plate they failed to mention that the plate was hot and she burned her hand. When we let the plate runner know she seemed upset that we let her know what happened and she never apologized. They didn't bring her fries with her burger and when she bit into her burger it was very pink inside. We returned her burger back to the kitchen. Her fries finally came out and shortly after the new burger followed. The entire time, our waiter was speaking to his friends who were seated behind us instead of tending to our needs. We tried several times to get his attention. When he finally came, his friends were talking about us in Spanish. Guess they didn't know I could understand them! They were speaking vulgar the entire time we were there, including our server. Won't be back there for a while now! read more

Yelpers are right! Worst Applebee's that I have been to. I took a chance since this was the only place open beyond 10pm. I have had bourbon steak at other Applebee's but what they served at this Applebee's was absolutely tasteless and ill prepared piece of meat. I just had the potatoes which came with it and left. Service is not that great either. read more

This place is somewhat normal except the one bright shinning red flag... 3 DRINK MAX. Aparently the roudy oil workers have caused problems so everyone has to suffer. I normaly like Applebees quite a bit, but that just totally kills the mood when you go out with your friends after a long day. One star, for the drink limitation. read more

We had the worst service ever.. our waitress Stephany C. Forgot to put in our order of cheese sticks and when we were asking about 2 for 27 she said my salad would ring up correct. After we ate nothing was correct on our ticket.. the absolute worst service I have ever received as I do not plan on returning to this Applebee's.. read more

SUCKED !!! Forgot my daughters meal reminded she says okay going to get it forgot again than finally brought it messed up my grandparents food than got attitude about it read more

My husband and I went here for a couple of drinks one afternoon. I had a Perfect Margarita. It was delicious. My husband had draft beer. The bar tenders were nice. We played games on the little machine at the bar and had fun. We did not eat here, but the food smelled great! read more

It's an Applebee's, but it's in Hobbs, NM. When you find yourself in Hobbs, finding a place you can relax and enjoy a decent, reasonably healthy meal is hard to do. I think the bartender's name is Kayla (?), and she is awesome! She remembers your drink order from your last visit. She times meals well. And she never makes you feel rushed. Other details: Happy hour is 3-6. It's next to the Fairfield Inn. There are some TVs in the bar area. They have karaoke some nights. read more

This Applebee's had some of the worst service ever I waited 35 minutes before someone noticed me gave me a menu and then it took them 40 minutes before I got my dinner. And on top of that, the place was dead at the time, Nobody else was ordering food. People in Hobbs, Nm are just lazy. read more

Applebee's Grill + Bar - Sports Bars Near Me - Hobbs, New Mexico

The waiter has only came to check on us once. We've been trying to get service but they take forever to even notice us. Good food, bad service. read more

We were Passing through the area and were staying at the Fairfield next door. The wait was longer then they had said it would be. The food took longer to come out then they said because the kitchen was backed up. The food was good. The service was horrible. The waitress...without humor forgot about 5 things. I am Someone who understands that being a waitress is a demanding job but it got a little ridiculous. Overall a poor experience. read more

Good value for the price of the food. This chain of restaurants never disappoints and the drinks are good. A moderate price on all things on the menu with several new items. I like the bar area for sports events. Get the beer on tap to save money. Most drinks are 7.99. read more

For Hobbs, NM, it's probably a great place to drink. You would have to be drunk to tolerate the frozen food and poor service. Hobbs is notorious for having the worst service at EVERY RESTAURANT. I went because I had a gift card. They did give me credit on my uncooked steak. I don't think I will go to any Applebee's and eat ever again. Take some friends and hang out at the bar. read more

We had a really good experience.For starters,the service was good.We didn't have to wait a very long time for our food to come.Our server was also nice.The food was also delicious.I really don't see why this place has a low rating.I forgot to mention that we ordered an appetizer and it came quickly and was good as well.And lastly,the building and the table was very clean. read more

The food is good...it's a chain, so not awe-inspiring, but it's pretty good. The service...hit and miss. Sometimes OK, sometimes pretty poor, seems very random. It's nearly the only restaurant/night spot open past 10 or 11 PM on weekends, so it gets REALLY busy on Friday/Saturday nights. Update (10/13/13): They switched drink vendors...no more Dr. Pepper. Still don't have sweetened iced tea (most places here have added it). Killed karaoke night. Lately the service has been worse, not better. I'm dropping them to a 2-star...unfortunately, as they are still one of the only places open late. Update 2 (12/12/2015): Consistently have plenty of tables open, but still have you wait 20-30 minutes as they don't staff enough servers. While the food is as good as any Applebee's, the service is pretty bad. read more

I thought this restaurant was up to par with other Applebees. We had to wait a few minutes to be seated. We had a great waiter I will be going back. read more

Once I was seated, it took over 5 minutes for anybody to come up to me, then it took close to ten minutes to get my order Then took what seemed like a very long time to get my burger Now to the food, the burger is good but they gave me the bottom of the barrel of fries. You know, the fries that are nothing but little fragments read more

Honestly this is the best service in the hobbs by far. Great food, quick service, great atmosphere. Love the patio! Those lights are really pretty. read more

Brewhouse chicken is amazing!!!!! Happy hour appetizers are a good deal and taste pretty good. The steak quesadillas are really good. Nice place to just have a good affordable meal and a drink . read more

No problem getting a table, placing an order or getting our first round of beverages. After that -- wow. Service was just awful. Our waitress had the personality of a cardboard box and talked so quietly we had difficulty understanding what she was saying (this was mid-afternoon on a Saturday, so it's not like the restaurant was full and noisy). We had to request drink refills and remind her of a portion of our table's order. Once we were served, however, it got even worse. She vanished (oh, she was waiting on other tables, but never looked our way). We waited a half-hour to get our ticket. The food was mediocre at best. I had the Chicken Frescheta (sp?). The chicken tasted great, but the accompanying foods were not so good. How can you mess up white rice? Blek. The sad thing? My son and his friends (with whom I was dining) had eaten at the same restaurant a year ago and had experienced a similarly bad visit. We were hoping to avoid Applebee's and had stopped at Chili's down the street, but that restaurant was closed because of some water pressure issue. Should have kept driving.... read more

Dont waste your money and time on this place. 4 waitresses on their celphone not attending people while I was waiting on the lubby. Poor and sad service. read more
