More than one hundred customers gather outside of Bob Evans around four-thirty this morning.
The new and improved Bob Evans Restaurant in Bellefontaine is now open.

The new store at 2100 South Main Street features a beautiful dining area and a much larger parking lot than the original store, which was torn down in late March.

Nite Mix host Ken Keller was live on 98.3 WPKO for the Grand Reopening early today. (Audio interview and pictures included.)

He reports that faithful customers were lined up as early as yesterday afternoon. More than one hundred customers camped out overnight in anticipation of the six a.m. opening.

Many Bob Evans corporate officials were at the event, too.

Bellefontaine Mayor Adam Brannon even helped wait tables.

Brannon used to work at the old Bob Evans location.

The Bellefontaine High School Marching Band performed the Star Spangled Banner, too.

Listen to Ken Keller's final onsite break, which aired just before seven a.m. 

The new Bob Evans can be reached at 592-9552.

Jesse Obstler is the general manager.
