Tips

Know Before You Go:

Nostalgia:
I ate here as a kid. My mom and I would eat at the drive in and have the waitress set up a tray on our window. They still take orders car side, like an old fashioned drive-in. On the weekends there's a lot of vintage cars here too. The food is okay, the ambiance unmatched.

The Original:
This is the original Bob's Big Boy...the one that started it all. You can often find local classic car clubs meeting here and reminiscing about the past.

Same old American food as all the others...but this place is often visited by site seers.

The flagship of this charming chain looks and feels as good as ever. Designated as a State Point of Historical Interest, this is the first Bob's Big Boy! Take a moment to admire the huge Big Boy statue before you head inside this child-friendly spot. Enjoy classic American diner food that feels like the type of dishes Fonzie would approve of. There is even car-hop service on the weekends....
