“ Having grown up in the area, I have heard about how good the Hob Nob is, but never tried it. It was definitely worth the wait. The food was delicious and home cooked. The restaurant was very busy, and the service was good and quick. They really know how to put out the food. The hamburger steak, slaw dog, and ice cream were delicious. I really liked the little salad bar. Hob Nob is definitely worth the drive. ”
“ The food was absolutely delicious! Everything was affordable. Definitely stay for desert! ”
“ The food was incredible, Savory and crispy. The icecream / milkshake was one of the creamiest-flavored shakes I've ever had. The atmosphere that of a diner. ”
“ We moved here over a year ago and have not found good food, until now! Hands down this mom and pop restaurant has the best food I have had since we have moved here. The burgers have great seasoning, and the cheese is properly melted. My wife had the catfish super, and she loved it. Yall have to try this place. The service is very friendly and pleasant, the prices are fantastic. ”
“ This is a "hole-in-the-wall" that we love. Today i had what was probably the best banana split I have ever had! ”
“ I love finding little drive-ins off the beaten path that are family owned and been around forever. My pictures are nothing fancy, but the cheeseburger, blackberry cobbler with hot fudge and peanut butter shake were delicious. The shake was the creamiest I've EVER had...sooo good!! The prices were very reasonable, as well. If I had one complaint, there were flies everywhere, and a pile of dirty dishes on the counter where you pay, but in all fairness, we were there during peak hours, and the door was open a lot. We waited, maybe 20-25 minutes to get a booth, so not terrible. The waitress was friendly and doing her best to serve us quickly. I'll definitely be returning and definitely recommend! ”
“ Hob-Nob Drive In is like going back in time, a time when the food tasted fresh and delicious and homemade. The milkshakes were the best I have had in a very long time. They were thick and full of fruity flavor, with chunks of delicious fruit. The burgers were cooked to perfection and reminded me of what a real beef burger should taste like, not like a frozen patty of questionable products. The cheese was perfectly melted, and the buns were soft but didn't fall apart. It is obvious that the people who run this restaurant are passionate about their food and care about what they are serving their customers. We will definitely be going back! ”
“ It’s very hard to find any restaurants that have chocolate soft serve. They have it here at Hob Knob Made my day! So good! Just went in for a soft serve cone and a peanut butter milkshake. Did not disappoint!! Staff very nice, friendly and helpful! ”
