Feb 2025 Update. Once again a delicious spur of the moment lunch! I've gotten the really good smashburger, fries and drink every time but wanted to mix it up a little, and the very nice staff woman suggested the chopped cheese. Whoa - SO good!! It will be my new go to until I'm ready to try something new again. My hubby got the smash burger again and said it once again was delicious. I have to mention the fries - they are perfect! Just the perfect crispiness! Thanks everyone at Bob's! ◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇ Bob's was recommended for great burgers - and they weren't kidding! My hubby had the BBQ burger and I had the smashburger. Might have been the best burger I've ever had! The meat was SO flavorful with excellent texture, and all the trimmings were just perfect. We also grabbed a milkshake and singlescoop from the ice cream bar for the road. Excellent ice cream. Can't wait to eat there again!!

Bobs (Band of Brothers) American Store and Cafe is my favorite restaurant ever. And it isn't just about the food. As a matter of fact, their food is awesome. I became addicted to hot wings and it is all their fault. I already had a coffee addiction and they just added fuel to the fire on that one. You'll never want McDonald's after eating there. But it was the first place me and my sweetheart ate at, after moving here. And I became attached to them all. It was a strange and new place. They were so inviting and just passing by their café made me smile, as I knew I had somewhere to go if ever I felt afraid. I was once a victim of assault and that type of fear is something you learn to live with. So, having safe places is always comforting for me. They never knew my past. They were just there and that meant everything to me. Also, they will be serving pizza come soon and I have full confidence that they will succeed. They are all kind and hardworking folk. They are super polite. My daughter worked there and she could not have been more blessed to have had such a great real first job. They treated her like family. All of the girls there are kind and hardworking. I love them all and as we move to our new home, I am going to miss them and the coffee for sure. But I have the memories and gratitude always. They deserve all the success in the world.

Have been meaning to try this place for a while and stopped in today for lunch with my family. I was very surprised at the quality of the food. The service was great, but this was definitely the best hamburger that we have had in the greater Beckley area and I don’t really think that it’s even close.For those of you who liked Chicago hotdogs, they also have best Chicago dog I’ve ever had outside of Chicago (better than some I’ve had in Chicago). If you live near Glade Springs, shady Springs, Flat Top Lake, or even Beckley, drive up and give these people some business. What a great surprise today!!
