My wife and I have come a few times in the last couple weeks. We had the turkey BLT, and chicken fried steak meal along with desserts. Rosario waited on us and was very attentive, and took great care of us making sure we had our food right away and our drinks filled. Great experience!

Food is decent and their staff is cordial, but their prices are ridiculously high. Breakfast shouldn't cost nearly $15 a platter. They need to get over themselves and remember they're serving eggs and pancakes. 

Business response:

Thank you for the feedback. We're always trying to make dining at Black Bear Diner the best experience it can be, so thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. We place the value on our plates and certainly appreciate your hard earned dollar. That is why we also offer the Little Less menu where you will find the same classics as a lower price point!
