Service was fast and friendly. Food was delicious. Lots of variety to the menu. Was there for breakfast and had eggs Benedict. Woodland decor.

The food was great. You can really taste the distinct flavors of each side of food. The service was quick and nimble, definitely worth it if you want food to come quick. The place is very cutely decorated as if it were a cosy cottage, the vibe is exactly what would want it to be if you like the bustling noise of chattering. However, if you are heavily introverted like myself, I suggest going in a day that isn't the weekend...it gets a bit noisy. (The coffee is great too!!)

Food was good. A lot of variety on the menu so good for families. Salads were fresh. Service was average, no complaints.

Love this diner! Breakfast all day. Giant biscuits that have a ton of tasty butter! Cool decor and ambiance. First time here and it was delicious over all. There is a slight wait even when slow, so if busy, expect to wait a while. Our waitress was nice enough, but she did forget our utensils even when she brought out the food and I had to actually get up and ask someone else because I couldn't even get her attention when she passed by. It affected her tip, but not this review. My biscuit was the highlight of both dishes, ... read more

I want to give a shout out to Rosario, Fanny, and Eric! Three top-notch servers at Black Bear! They really strive to make your meal is prepared right and they are very attentive. I never have to worry about my order being wrong whenever they are working. We need more servers like them!

Due to an early morning meeting last Wednesday I arrived here at 10:35 for a late breakfast . Food was pretty good but wow i ordered a simple western omelet , it took at least 30 minutes if not a little longer for it to be delivered to my table . It was not crowded either . Not sure why it took so long but I asked the server to please check on the order . Food was pretty good but i find that too slow for an omelet !

They have high potential, but it took forever to get our food and the restaurant was maybe 20% occupied. Ambience was not very good while we were there - a couple was having loud FaceTime calls and then watched videos together that the rest of the restaurant guests got to listen to as well. Situation could have been managed but staff didn't seem to care. All the guests were irritated though.

Walked over from our hotel. Service is so great. Food is good ole home style cooking , salad was so very fresh n crisp. I ordered the tri strip steak. Was good, baked loaded potatoe was incredible, best green beans ever. Husband had chicken fried steak which I took a few bites from was beyond great tasting. Best part was coconut pie we took to go. So so so good!!
