Bob and Edith’s Diner, a hyper-local chain of five diners spread across Arlington and Fairfax, is planning to its sixth location in Old Town Alexandria early next week.
The new location at 1743 King Street — formerly Ernie’s Original Crab House — is planned to open on Monday, February 28 at 7 a.m.
“We are a family owned business that has been serving the locals for over 50 years,” said Alexander Bolton, director of marketing for Bob and Edith’s Diner, in an email. “We are opening up a new location in Old Town on Monday February 28th at 7 a.m.”
Bob and Edith’s offers the archetypal diner fare, like eggs and french toast for breakfast with burgers, soups and pies for lunch, with nearly everything on the menu at around $10 or less.
