The chicken bacon ranch quesadilla made my nuts so tight! The rope action with the cheese was on point definitely recommend!

Stopped by as we drove through Oklahoma. Decided to stop due to the reviews on Yelp, and we were not disappointed. Good coffee, home style potatoes were so good and crispy, everything we had was delish. Nice friendly service and super reasonable prices. Will make this a regular stop from now on. read more

What About Bobs - Sunrise Special - Diners Near Me - McAlester, Oklahoma

Saw 4 plus stars while traveling, so we stopped for lunch. TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT! We ordered Bobs salad, lettuce pieces too big, 4 small pieces of tomato, ranch dressing awful and service was very lacking. No friendliness, no follow up. We won't be back. read more

Great local places with a good amount of choices. I love pancakes and the ones there are perfect. For my kids- they usually only love to eat bacon and they have a choice to just get bacon for the kids. Easy pick up from location. Everyone I encountered inside was nice and welcoming. read more

I had never been to McAlester before so I ventured out for a day trip. I like to check out local diners and I love breakfast so this place seemed like a good choice. It was! The ham and cheese omelette had generous portions of ham and cheese. The hash browns were delicious! The English muffin was toasted just the way I requested. Do yourself a flavor and go to "What About Bobs"! I will be back! read more

Great people and great food. Everyone that works there knows what they need to do to keep you coming back. They care.

Food has been pretty great; only once did I have something not quite right. Staff is super.

Good food, for good price. Staff was friendly and seemed like they were having fun while working. Will be back when I'm back in town. (From Fort Worth,TX) read more

What About Bobs seems to be a popular road trip stop and that's exactly how my friends and I came across this slightly hidden location. We were driving back to Dallas from AR, craving brunch food. We found this place on Yelp and had to try it out. The employees are some of the friendliest I've ever met while eating out. I got the Western omelette. The portion was amazing for the price but the food itself is very basic tasting. My friends' dishes looked the same way. That's the only reason for taking one star off. However, the portions, nice servers, and generally friendly atmosphere are enough for me to highly recommend What About Bobs to anyone passing through. I'm more than happy that my friends and I had to opportunity to come across this place. read more

What About Bobs - Western omelette. So much food for a good price - Diners Near Me - McAlester, Oklahoma

Always good food and great service. Our kids love the pancakes. The staff is always nice and the restaurant is always clean.

Great food, people and a solid establishment! We were driving through Oklahoma and looking for a place for an early lunch. I am a bit of a sucker for dinners in small towns and Bob's did not disappoint. I had their biscuits with the sausage gravy and it was a solid 7 on a 10 point scale. I got to graze on the rest of the families breakfast platters and the pancakes, French toast, bacon, and sausages were all tasty and prepared well. The staff was really friendly and we were waited on in a timely manner and they quickly served our food. We left full, happy, and will be back! read more

Just had breakfast there. Really quite good. I had a large Meaty omelet with cheese, hash browns and an english muffin. Wow, great food and very good prices. Service was fast and friendly; a very nice place for breakfast/lunch. The service was great...always refilling coffee cups, etc. Very attentive. My dining companions also had omelets and the like. Everyone enjoyed their food immensely. No flaws or negatives. Go, enjoy. read more

Very friendly people! Average food for small town, about what I expected. But for price it wasn't bad. I would go back.

Chicken Fried Steak finally got to try. Knew about since opened but Dad is set in his ways so I finally got to eat here and we loved the food and staff. Everyone was the best. read more

Very very good!! Service was good, great local feel, food was great, portions were great...just simply great food at a great price! Didn't try the HUGE pancake, but did try the special! It's a lot of food (I couldn't finish it, and was warned by one guy leaving that I wouldn't be able to), but soooo good!! Son had biscuits with sausage gravy and he said it was GREAT!! read more

See all

5 Star service from Catherine today! Love her enthusiasm & personality! We stopped in for breakfast on our day trip to McAlester from Roland, OK. My husband had Bob's Specialty, I had eggs, bacon & grits. Both breakfasts w/biscuit & gravy. My husband has eaten here before. I'm a fan of real butter, they have Land O Lakes Buttery Spread...This is still a great place for breakfast :) read more

Always a fun time at What About Bobs! Great atmosphere! Great people! Great food! The waitresses are awesome and full of sassiness, just how I like a waitress. read more

Great place to stop for breakfast or lunch on our way back to Texas. Large portions so totally shareable. We had the vege omelette, biscuits and gravy, chicken salad and the grilled chicken sandwich. All were very good. The chicken salad come with a lot of cheese on it. So be aware of that if you are not a fan of tons of cheese. The biscuits were really tasty and not dry at all like some biscuits can be. read more

What an awesome breakfast place! The food and service were very good, an portions are big. Don't get the "large pancake" unless you are HUNGRY! It hangs over the sides of the plate. The staff are really friendly group and went out of the way to insure we were well taken care of. read more

This place was recommended by a friend for their breakfast. The menu was standard and had the normal breakfast options. I typically get a little bit of a few things aT breakfasts places. I got French toast, biscuits and gravy with bacon. The French toast had a little too much egg for my liking. The biscuits and gravy was delicious! The bacon was crispy and done how i like. My husband got a large pancake that was bigger than his plate. It was over cooked and almost black on one side. Would go back for their biscuits and gravy only. read more

It has some solid food had good service the place is nice, and the decor feels homely it's a solid place with nice people

One of those "can't miss" spots in town here. It may not be some people's style visually. But the food is hard to beat. They have incredible breakfasts. Particularly the hamburger omelet. Portions are big enough to feed more than one person easily, or if you're like me, to gorge yourself on and not need another meal for a day or two. Again, incredible breakfasts and lunches. The staff is amazingly friendly and the prices are the best bang for the buck in town BY FAR. read more

Wasn't impressed at all. The room smelled of cigarettes. The food was just ok. I wouldn't even go if someone paid for my meal.

Tasted great there was 10 of us and not a single meal tasted bad! Will definitely be back! Maddagain was an amazing hostess! Thank you so much( sorry if I spelled wrong) read more

Very good breakfast and great service. Even my picky child said that was the best. Love finding places like this off the main road, but worth the detour. read more

We were craving pancakes and this place didn't disappoint! My husband got the bob's pancake and I got the blueberry. Both delicious. Coffee stayed filled. Good friendly service. Prices are reasonable. Worth a stop if you are passing through McAlester headed south towards Dallas. It's right on the highway. read more

We did curbside pick-up and ordered inside. Had breakfast items: bacon and ham were excellent! The biscuits and gravy were fluffy and everything was piping hot. Service was so friendly-- enjoyed our breakfast in the car :) will be back read more

Delicious breakfast stop! Very friendly and tentative staff. Stopped here on our way through Oklahoma. Would definitely come back someday!

So this place had 5 stars and they deserve all 5 of them. We stopped in on our way through because of the yelp reviews. The food was amazing. We both had breakfast and let me tell you it was delicious. Service was fast, and very friendly. If we ever come this way again this will be a must stop. read more

Super yummy breakfast food! Omelets and hashbrowns are my favorite thing to get here!

We had a likable waitress, and she took our order promptly. Food came quickly but was only ok. But the thing that caused me to give it such a low rating was the very loud foul language coming from the kitchen. We were just passing thru but would probably not eat here again if in the area. read more

We love finding local favorites during our family summer road trips, and this little gem didn't disappoint. Everything from the eggs, biscuits and gravy, pancakes, chicken fried steak and french toast was delicious. The service was beyond excellent. read more

Heading to STL from DFW area - glad we stopped! "Bobs Special" a very good breakfast and lots of it. Fast, piping hot food, cheerful service and great prices. Not right on 69 but is on Business 69. Nice to eat at something other than a chain restaurant. read more

Great food and great service. The owner is so nice and his staff is to. The price's and portion's of the food are great.we will be back.Really like going to what about bobs read more

The food was great. The facility needs a little TLC, but good food and service.

Stopped here for breakfast on our way to Branson, and we really enjoyed it! Great food, fast and fresh, plus good prices! I highly recommend trying What about Bob's! read more

Oh hell no! I would only go back if I was starving and broke down in the parking lot

Always delicious and service with a smile. Really feels like family when you go in here. I have many memories in this place - even in the old location. I miss seeing Bob, though, he was great. He always pulled up a chair and talked to us while we ate lunch and called me "Princess" the whole time I was growing up. His kids are great though - keeping the yummy, friendly legacy alive. Breakfast, lunch, brunch, it doesn't matter! Check this place out BEFORE 2PM and you won't be disappointed. read more

This is one of those times when you are not sure weather to stop in the small town with minimum places to eat or keep going. We decided to stop at Bob's for a hamburger. It was a good choice. The place was clean, clean restrooms, good food. The people were friendly and helpful. read more

Great place to eat. I love it there. This is my go to place to eat breakfast. The customer service is great. The food tastes great. For the price, you get a lot of food. If you are looking for a casual breakfast for your family or friends, I definitely recommend everyone try what about bobs. read more
