The K-Bob Café In Princeton Minnesota Closes Its Doors For Good
I may be the last one to know; but I was so sad to hear that after 61 years in business, the iconic K-Bob Cafe, a staple in the Princeton, Minnesota community closed its doors this past August. My understanding is that a Mexican restaurant will be located in that location soon.
MEMORIES
When I think about the K-Bob, I have so many great memories. I remember working with my Aunt Marlene in Fridley, and we would meet her husband at the K-Bob in the morning when we would be coming home from the night shift, as she worked the night shift and he worked the day shift. I remember the delicious smell of caramel rolls, pancakes, eggs, and bacon. I never knew the owners of the K-Bob Cafe, but I remember spending lots of happy times there; great times with family and conversations over coffee and tasty homemade food.
So many people that I went to school with had their first jobs at the K-Bob cafe. It was located right downtown Princeton and was only open mornings to early afternoon, but was just "THE" place to go whenever you wanted a traditional delicious home-cooked meal. Not to mention, lunch had to be followed by a slice of the many homemade pie selections available.
