We went there for lunch. You can order anything off the menu, breakfast, lunch or dinner. Lots of room - I use a wheelchair, and the restaurant is very roomy. Portions are large. My husband brought half his sandwich home. I got Eggs Benedict, and the serving of potatoes was huge. I shared with my husband and still left a lot. Our waiter, Phoenix, was very friendly and provided good service. Everything was very tasty. We’ll definitely go back.

We decided to go out to eat this year for Christmas instead of cooking. Big Bear Diner was one of the few places open until later in the evening. Upon arriving, we waited for about 25 minutes which wasn’t bad at all, especially for a holiday. Because of the holiday, they were serving a limited menu. When our server, Justin, came to the table he informed us that they were out of one of the holiday specials, three of the holiday entrees, and soup and salad (which was suppose to come with the holiday meals). This was quite disa... read more
