Built in 1949 by locals Scott MacDonald and Ward Albert, this restaurant is the oldest remaining Bob's Family Restaurant in America. It was designed by respected architect Wayne McAllister, incorporating the 1940s Transitional design of Streamline Modern Style while anticipating the Freeform 50s Coffee Shop architecture. The towering Bobs sign is an integral part of the building's design and its most prominent feature.
