We have long appreciated going to Bob Evans for his consistent and hearty cooking. It’s the place to find all kinds of comfort food: stacks of hot pies, earth-fried steaks, buttery biscuits, giant burgers, tender roasts, even a tangy taste of Dang hot chicken or fresh seasonal berries.
The best thing about Bob Evans, too, is how good it gets out of your meals. You’ll find delicious food at an affordable price, with options to please everyone in the family. Enter: the new one American values menu Each part of the Bob Evans menu (breakfast, lunch and dinner) includes a section titled American Values that includes inexpensive but no less complete options that cover all your favorites.
When you scan the menu, just look for the sections called American Values! On the breakfast menu you will find Saviors of the dawn, a collection of meals priced between $4.99 and $7.99. You’ll find it incorporates everything from oatmeal to hot cakes, country cookies to brioche, French toast, sausage gravy to classic samples.
My 11-year-old Owen, who was my dining companion on our most recent trip, was in the mood for breakfast, so he ordered the Classic breakfast: Two eggs cooked your way, a choice of breakfast meat and your choice of bread. He was a man after my own heart: over easy eggs, sausage and biscuits.
The American Values menu also includes the customizable one Choose 2 combos. Priced between $6.99 and $8.99, the combos let you mix and match pairs of premium salads, simmered soups and signature sandwiches.
The possibilities are endless, with four different half salads (I love a good cobb salad), a half sandwich duo like the All American BLT or the Double Cheese Pot Roast Rip, plus a couple hearty soups like Chicken- N-Noodle or Cheddar Baked Potato.
I’m a big fan of pot roast, especially any dish that makes good use of the rich drippings from the pan, so I tried the Double Cheese Pot Roast Dip, which comes with a small cup of brown gravy. It was the perfect pairing with a comforting plate of chicken noodle soup that was overflowing with noodles and diced chicken.
Chicken noodle soup is good for any mood or any time of year, and the roast sandwich brought back memories of the french dip sandwiches my grandmother used to make for Sunday dinners when I was growing up.
And last but not least on the American Values menu are the Dinner bell dishes at an affordable price of $7.99. The menu includes seven dishes that cover all the classic comfort foods: Farmer’s Steak, Turkey and Dressing, Chopped Steak with Mushrooms and Onions, Grilled or Fried Chicken Breast with Mashed Potatoes, Walnut Smoked Ham Steaks and Steak lemon and pepper sole with home fries. All of these meals are topped off with your choice of freshly baked bread.
I’m never one to turn down fried chicken and mashed potatoes, so we gave it a try Hand breaded fried chicken breast. The photogenic dish comes with a juicy piece of chicken, a giant scoop of mashed potatoes (with your choice of beef or chicken gravy) and a side of corn.
I mean, it’s comfort food on a plate, right?!
The same goes for the smallest part of the Turkey and Dressing. Even though it’s called the smallest size, it’s still very filling: a couple of big balls of stuffing topped with slices of turkey, a big dollop of mashed potatoes and gravy, and a side of cranberry sauce. I LOVE Thanksgiving dinner any time of year, so it warms my heart when I can find a good turkey, mashed potatoes, and stuffing on the menu.
It’s nice to know that you always have an inexpensive option to feed your whole group and leave them stuffed!
You’ll find American Values items on the Bob Evans menu every day!
