Always great food and great customer service. I have never had any issues with them. I always try to buy their Awesome Bread Pudding TO GO, everytime me and my family or wife eat there. Thanks Black Bear Diner Lodi,CA.

I ordered the breakfast sliders with hot Italian sausage, over-medium eggs, and country potatoes. My eggs were cooked perfectly (which is rare). The sliders were much bigger than I expected. One was more than enough. The second slider was just as good the next day.

I normally really like this olace and usually it would garner a higher rating, but tonight the meal fell really short. I ordered a breakfast omellete and it was really lacking in flavor and it was dry. The rest of the family's dishes were subpar. I'll try it again in the future. I'm hoping this was just an off day. Normally the food is much better. The service was a bit lacking that day as well. The server had to be asked multiple times for hit sauce and it felt like to us like the server felt inconvenienced when we m... read more

My meal was fair. The hash brown potatoes were served barely warm almost cold in some parts. The bacon was alright, cooked to order though. My omelette was fair as well. Service was slow and had to ask for items a few times before we received them. The cornbread muffin was good, nice flavors and moist not crumbly. Waitress seemed overwhelmed with our group of 8. The food was good, not great but good enough where we'll be back. The chicken tenders were served hot, fries were ok. Everyone was happy with their meals, not compl... read more

Clean and comfortable surroundings. Very friendly and efficient staff and service. Avocado toast is very tasty, cup of fruit is a nice touch. Everyone in our group enjoyed their meal. Will be back.

Black Bear Diner is much like Denny's but not much like Denny's. What makes it much like Denny's is it's breakfast and how you can always count on it being good. How it isn't much like Denny's is you can order lunch or dinner and count on it being good. That's why I will pick Black Bear Diner over Denny's any time. I have not visited the Lodi location before and decided one night after a hockey game in Stockton that this would be a good choice for something quick to eat. My son got his usual chicken tenders with fries and m... read more

We love BBD once in a while for Sunday morning breakfast. Fresh taste, and the largest portions we've ever seen at a restaurant. The coffee is also amazing. Highly recommend making this a breakfast visit!!
