Does anyone goto the Pentagon from this location?

Off-topic... why is it called Bob's? I don't recall a Bob's ever being in that location. I remember when the CC, Long John's and Shoney were there, but never a Bob's.

The former Shoney's was a Bob's Big Boy restaurant many years ago before it was Shoney's. It was one of the first major slugging sites back in the 70's and 80's -- and the name "Bob's" just stuck with the slugging community. [:)]

Since you can get home from the Pentagon to Bob's, I assume you can get their in the morning? It must be the other line, not the L'enfant/14th street line. But, I can't say that I'm positive.

And, has anyone had a free cup o' joe from the new Al's? If they put it in a togo cup, might be nice to warm up to while we wait for our rides...

I see... I was a Bob's before my "time". I couldn't drive in the 70/80's. ;)

kgirl,
That makes sense to me. Wonder why it doesn't list it here on this site. ??

I don't know if Bob's serves the Pentagon in the AM.

I've never seen a rider going there, but on occasion cars have driven up to both lines, but there have been no takers. I'm at Bob's between 6:15 and 7:00AM so I can't speak for what happens after that.
