I haven't been to Black Bear diner since I was a kid. They serve a lot of food where and they have a lot of options for kids. They also offer wine, beer, and mimosas. The desserts look amazing.

The food is basic "truck stop" fare that seems pre-cooked, didn't arrive hot. Scrambled eggs had that pre-cooked patina, pancakes were firm and cupped, not hot. The coffee was not good. The hot Italian sausage was decently spicy but very greasy. Service is good and pleasant. Serving portion size is very large. A bit expensive at $20. I've had worse, it's edible and I was hungry. It's just disappointing as this was my "cheat" meal and I was hoping for better. ‍ Ok, I need to admit that I recently returned from Paris... read more

Good quality and lots of options if you're looking for an abundant breakfast. It's one of the few options in the area that opens early. We got their chocolate chip pancakes and eggs with bacon and larger pancakes and everything was yummy and plenty. Service was welcoming and personable. I'd definitely go back (despite fares tend to be on the pricier end).
