Bob Evans has launched a line of 10 family-sized takeout meals, each priced at less than $20, in time for many Americans' return to the school-year routine.
The family-dining chain is marketing its Bob Evans Family Meals To Go with a “Think Outside the Pizza Box” promotion that gives a $2 discount to guests who bring a pizza coupon into the restaurant.
Each dinner, which the chain says serves three to four people, comes with bread and a choice of side dish, or it can be ordered à la carte for $5 less than the meal price.
Choices include turkey breast and dressing; turkey, bacon and cheddar pasta; six grilled chicken breasts with choice of sauce; fried chicken breast; chicken and broccoli Alfredo; cranberry pecan chicken salad; pot roast stroganoff; chicken Parmesan; meat loaf; spaghetti and meat sauce; and roast beef with gravy.
In addition to the new family to-go meals, Bob Evans said last month it planned to roll out its "Taste of the Farm" takeout component after testing it in a Westerville, Ohio, restaurant. The retail and carryout operation, which includes a bakery and cold case with grab-and-go items, will be added to remodeled stores going forward, the chain said.
Columbus, Ohio-based Bob Evans has 569 locations.
