"I ordered a BBQ tray, but I must admit I was a bit disappointed with the presentation; all the food was piled together in a tray meant for French fries. The vinegar slaw was enjoyable, and the BBQ itself was decent, although I wasn't a fan of the BBQ sauce available on the table. It had an odd mixture of vinegar and sweetness that didn't align with the traditional NC BBQ sauce I usually appreciate. The staff was nice enough to offer me a cup of honey BBQ wing sauce, which I did enjoy.
The hushpuppies were tasty, and my husband ordered ribs, which he found to be good as well, though they came with that same unusual sauce that he ended up scraping off. I found the staff to be somewhat indifferent; they were young and not particularly warm.
When I needed to use the bathroom, I encountered an issue. The only male employee we saw was in the men's restroom, and I was advised to wait until it was free. No thanks to that experience.
Overall, I had high hopes for Old Bob's but walked away a bit disappointed. If I happen to be in the area again, I’m unlikely to return. A lesson learned: if you want a wider selection of BBQ options, it's best to go early."
