To be quite honest, we stumbled onto Bob's by accident. We were on our way to another place for lunch, but it was closed, and we passed by Bob's on our way back to our motel. I'm so glad we stopped in! The inside of the restaurant feels like an old-time diner. The owner is incredibly friendly. He took our order, made the food, AND brought it to our table.

Great place to eat at when in Okoboji. Never nearly as busy as the Arnold's park location and a much more traditional restaurant. The food is delicious for the type of food that they serve (fried food). I definitely recommend going here and suggest you get a malt.

Nothing beats Bob's cheese taverns! Famous since 1949, this is their newest location in downtown Milford, drive right up to the door. So convenient. Arnold's Park location still open. I love their cheese curds instead of fries. They offer malts, too.

Good food & service at a great value. Good option for carry out, as Food comes out quick. But also lots of seating for dine-in. Order the "Family Fry" if you get fries 🤤
