With very limited time, we opted for an easy spot near home -- the Bob Evans in Beachwood. We have a list of other non-chain counters we need to visit, but this one was conveniently close and we knew it had a large counter.
We expected a long wait given it was Saturday late morning, but fortunately got seats at the counter after only a few minutes. Service was friendly enough, but not all that attentive or special.
From the large menu, Cam chose chicken and fries -- he proclaimed it to be excellent, and it certainly was a large portion. Ted has his usual -- eggs, potatoes, toast, bacon and coffee. Overall, the breakfast was pretty average -- just kind of plain, and a little bit on the greasy side.
The place is loud and busy, just not very relaxing. But for the price, it's OK. Not worthy of a recommendation -- more a mention as a "by the way, if you don't have time for anything better".
