Ate there on Sunday 2/23/2025. Service crew/wait staff were very welcoming and friendly. The only disappointment were the breakfast potatoes. they were cold, tough, and tasted old. Didn't fit with all the "Best Breakfast on the Beach" banners hanging around. Overall the meal was good but they didn't have to tell us to "Get The Hell Out". read more

The food here was amazing. I got the Hangover and has browns. It was just so good! Their potatoes are the best my husband and I have ever had. We travel a lot and never had hash browns like these! My husband got the steak, eggs, grits and a pancake. We ate at 7:30am and it held us all day. Great breakfast! The service was so friendly and fun with their slogan about getting you "the hell out of there" so you can live your best beach life. The place was cute and had fun things to look at on the walls and tables. I'd recommend this place to everyone. read more

Bottom Line: A very casual restaurant with large portions and reasonable prices. Bob's Grill focuses on breakfast and lunch year-round and I believe they offer dinner during the peak season. My husband and I went for breakfast on a weekend in early October and enjoyed the friendly service, quick kitchen and tasty breakfast. My husband stuck to a classic bacon and eggs dish while I enjoyed an omelet. Both entrees came with toast or a biscuit and grits or hash browns. As if that wasn't enough food we also shared a funky money pancake. I was craving something sweet, as usual, but didn't want a whole breakfast of sweet so in came the pancake which was the star of our meal. Having sampled a little bit of mine and a little bit of my husband's, I'd rush back to Bob's for another one of those pancakes. And I certainly would come back for their eggs, bacon, omelets and buttery rich toast. I can pass on the pasty grits though. With so much food we ended up with leftovers and we enjoyed munching on the pancake the next day, even served cold. The restaurant is very, very casual. The wait staff is friendly. I'm not sure I understand the slogan of "Eat and get the hell out!" but I appreciate that our waitress downplayed that aspect. Anyway, we ate and got the hell out but I'll be back for a stack of the funky monkey pancakes! read more

We went to Bob's for breakfast on the last morning of our beach trip. The parking lot was crowded, but we were seated almost immediately. The waitress took orders on a handheld terminal. My wife ordered the Biscuit & Gravy with hash browns and one egg over easy. I got the Bob's Special with 2 hotcakes, 3 eggs over easy, and sausage links. The food came quickly, and was very good. The portions were large. We shared the hash browns and the hotcakes, but were only able to finish half of the hotcakes. I had coffee, and it was great. When we were done, the waitress printed our check on her handheld terminal, and we were able to pay using Apple Pay from my phone. I love technology! We'll be going back to Bob's the next time we're in the area. read more

I know what you're thinking... 5 stars? For a diner? Who's tagline is "eat and get the hell out!"? Well, it was the perfect breakfast experience from beginning to end on this super cloudy, chilly day. And that's because Summer, our server, brought the heat. Not only was she gliding through a packed dining room without breaking a sweat, she was exactly where she needed to be AT ALL TIMES. Ready for your order to be taken? She's there. Need a refill? She's on it. Forget something at your table? She's got it in her hand and she's outside before you even get to your car. Can't win a duck in the claw machine game? She knows the secrets. All of them. read more

I expected this place to be just another greasy spoon, but the breakfast was real good. Everything came out exactly as ordered, and cooked properly just the way I asked. Initial service was a little slow, but once I got a waitress she was an attentive. Reasonably priced relatively speaking. I would definitely return. read more

Had a wonderful time here in July when I was down and ended up eating there twice on that trip. Went back down again this month and went there three times. Food is great, portions are a good value. Highly recommend our waitress Crystal who we had twice in the most recent trip. Crystal, you are absolutely right - if we drink the coffee black, we drink it fast! Thanks for keeping my cup full! I can't remember the other waitress that was there today and ducked us since she saw us pull up in a Jeep. Even told us to go get a few more in the ducky claw game! Then Crystal ducked us, so we had a little flock to add to the dash! We will definitely go back on future trips down to BOBX! Love the tumblers - "eat and get the hell out!" read more

I enjoyed the steak omelette and the Poinsetta drink and the hash browns were really great (not the frozen kind from a bag/box). Our waitress, Earline, was really nice but then suddenly told us to "get the hell out". Lol. Funny place. My only ask for the place would be to space out a little more and more masks while we're in the covid nightmare. I know they're short-staffed like most places nowadays, but would be sad to know they have even less help due to any illness that's adding to a lot of the staffing shortages everywhere too. read more

If you want to wait over an hour after you've ordered and still not get food then go here. Got sat fairly quick and our waitress had very good energy to begin with while ordering. We waited for about an hour and watched everyone around us get sat AND fed while we just watched. Our waitress kept telling us our food would arrive and even gave us an additional beverage trying to hold us over while we waited. Once we've reached our end and give her multiple times to get our food we went up to her to just close out our tabs for our drinks WHILE our waitress was placing our order to the kitchen and gave us and the kitchen staff attitude like it was the kitchen fault when it seems like she didn't even place our order in the first place. Stating that "they're really complaining about food that's about to come out in two minutes" and that the "restaurant is so packed and food was delayed" which it's sat morning and completely understand, but when a party of 9 gets sat after our party 3 and still gets their food AND check before us. read more

This past weekend was our first time at Bob's Grill in at least 10 years. We quickly realized that we have been missing out for 10 years. We were instantly greeted and brought to our clean table. Then we were greeted with the friendliest waitress around, Helen. Helen was a ball of energy and enthusiasm. Her positive attitude was contagious, and we left in such a great mood. On top of it, the food was hot with huge portion sizes. We will definitely be back, and asking for Helen again! read more

Bob's was recommended to me by a close friend for their breakfast. I had the crab meat omelette which was tasty but which probably could of used a little extra seasoning or flavor. It was a bit bland. The home fries were probably the best thing I ate. The waiter was really nice and had great service!! It was pretty hopping in there. A lot of people eating breakfast! I just ate and got the hell out!!! Haha As their motto says!! read more

We typically come every year with our family and typically there is a long wait but our most recent visit wasn't great. Service could have been better but my main complaint was the food. I ordered an omelette and all of the toppings inside were huge. No one wants giant pieces of onions inside their meal. read more

Wow! This place was cool and the food was delicious! The inside is small but decor is awesome. My seafood Benedict was full of shrimp and crab meat! My boyfriend got the chicken fried steak with gravy that was soooo good! We will be back! read more

We absolutely loved it! The food was amazing. If I had to give one thing that wasn't to our liking was we both had to add a lot of salt to the grits. We're from SC so good grits are a must. Their grits were good but needed salt. Waitress recommended the crab cakes. They sounded delicious but we were looking for a traditional breakfast. My hubby wants to go back and try them. They close at 1:00 though. We were going to eat next door but they had a no conceal carry sign so we went to Bob's. Great choice!! If you have a grouchy old man or a young kid just know (if it bothers you) they do laughingly say "Get the Hell out" when you pay. Waitress was very polite and friendly. She handled our needs well. Definitely would go again. Try it! read more

I had the Seafood Benedict and it was delicious. They don't do poached eggs but you can have it with over easy or over medium eggs. The seasoning was great. The shrimp and lump crab were fresh. Fun ambiance with great service. The waitress had the best personality and it seems they all do from what I overheard. I will definitely be back. read more

We went here bc we were amused they say "now get the hell out". Seated right away was a plus, Food was very good hubby and I had great omelettes and kids the largest pancakes I've ever seen!! They loved them! Here's where the review gets sour... we were seated all the way in the back and waitress stood hanging out at the front. Hubby had coffee and she couldn't come by to check in or ask for a second cup??? We left and had to go to Dunkin' Donuts for coffee. She wasn't busy as it was winding down this was around 10. We paid and I tipped well... I got a thanks and she left to hang out, yet again, up front by register. As we walked out no bye or nothing. Based on service and the fact that I had to leave to get more coffee I wouldn't go back. Sad because we wanted to love this place. Food good, service not so much. Now I will get the hell out and won't come back! read more

ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT HERE! Stopped through for a tournament and my kids loved it so much we came three days in a row! The food, the service, and the environment is beyond welcoming! If you love a good Bloody Mary ask for Claudine to make them! read more

Warning: The "garbage plate omelet" is a food challenge item on the menu! I did not know this when I ordered it, and was not adequately prepared to tackle this challenge! However, I probably would still have failed! This is probably one of the best stops in the OBX if you're craving an authentic diner style breakfast. "Eat and get the hell out!" Is their motto, which I'm sure is fun for the wait staff to say, as most waiters probably want to say that often! Good diner food, good coffee, and good service. read more

My friends and family have been avid and loyal customers of Bob's for at least the last 6-7 years, maybe more. I have happily recommended Bobs to anyone who asked for one of our favorite spots in the OBX, but that ends today. We waited over an hour for food and when we finally got it, the food was cold and simply not good. Potatoes were cold, food bland, etc. One of the people in our party's food was forgotten AFTER waiting the hour. We normally have the same waitress and this time we didn't, maybe that's the problem - not sure. What I am sure of is that we will not be back. PS - the menu has also changed, so don't get your heart set on something you see online because that's probably no longer on the menu. read more

Bob's is one of our go to places for our beach week. We love it. The food is always good and great value too. Highly recommend this place

I ordered Bob's special with blueberries in the pancakes. The pancakes were huge, however, not light and fluffy. Nothing special about the batter, but lots of blueberries. The eggs were normal, and there was a lot of bacon. However, I am certain that the traveler's diarrhea I got that evening was from Bob's, since I ate nothing else. Service was good, but ambiance was bad-very loud, and not as clean as I would expect. The place was packed. read more

This is a fun and yummy breakfast stop for a family. We came here because the wait was shorter than some of the other local breakfast restaurants and enjoyed it! The shrimp and grits were ok, nothing amazing, but some good comfort food if that's what you're going for. The Veggie omelet was huge and full of everything you could want- peppers, onions, spinach, your choice of cheese- I had cheddar. Their hash browns are incredible- pan fried sliced potatoes- so good! They have huge thick pancakes! They taste like cake, they're so filling, you definitely need to split them with a friend or family member! The staff is super friendly- we had a funny waitress named Shortie and everyone loved her! read more

I had been here a few times by myself, a couple of years ago, while on vacation. This time I took the wife. We had typical breakfast, eggs, hashbrowns, grits, bacon, toast, pancakes, etc., the works. The food was great. We ATE, then "GOT THE HELL OUT!" That about sums it up. read more

We had great service at this old school diner for breakfast. Our first couple of choices were closed on a Tuesday, but thankfully they were open. The menu is huge and has just what you want. You know how a lot of places serve up stringy-ass bacon that's mostly fat? Not so with this place. Each piece is perfectly crisp and with little fat on it. The service is great and it's the best thing ever when they check on you, if you don't need anything more, they ask you to "eat and get the hell out!" read more

Great breakfast spot open all year. Claudine was southern wonderful. Country fried steak was tasty, homemade corned beef hash in an omelet, fried potatoes, gigantic chocolate chip pancake, southern fluffy biscuits ... all great. Only wish...

We stopped by on a recent Sunday morning looking forward to a yummy breakfast. We wound up leaving before we even ordered our food. I understand how difficult the pandemic has been on the restaurant industry and that many establishments have gone to great lengths to keep business going anyway they can. But not enforcing the mask order, or maintaining proper social distancing?? It's simply dangerous and not worth it. I was stunned to see that the hostess wasn't wearing a mask as she moved around the dining area seating patrons. Our family was seated and within a few minutes a party was sat at the table next to us, with some of us sitting within 2 feet of the other customers at that table. We really want to try to do what we can to give our business to local establishments, but not at the cost of possibly contracting COVID if that establishment won't follow the protocols meant to keep us all as safe as possible. read more
