About this business

In 1995 founders Bruce Dean and Bob & Laurie Manley opened the first Black Bear Diner in Mt. Shasta, CA.

I'm sure you've been to one of the 70 or 80 black bear restaurants on the West Coast by now, but this one is special... Close to where it all began, ran by amazing people, and the best servers around. Huge helpings of great home-cooked food. Definitely my favorite breakfast place in town.

I love eating at Diners. Black Bear is the ultimate diner. They have great food, (shout out to the Chefs). The staff is always courteous and often check on you throughout your meal. Black Bear is always full but, there's always an empty table. I've known one of the owners since High School. All they want is to do is give them a plate full at a great price.

It's always a bit of a shock to read bad reviews of a diner--and a chain diner, at that--and see complaints for being what they are. Black Bear Diner is nothing special, but to me it met the needs and expectations of those who dined there. Service was a bit frenetic the day we ate here, but they were also trying to juggle many, many firefighters who were battling a nasty blaze west of the city. Our waitresses were apologetic about the situation (hardly their fault) and friendly. The food generic and hearty diner fare, bu... read more

We arrived at 7 am and were prmptly seated. It turns out Alyssa was the only server on duty. She was super friendly and cheerful. She was runnung around taking care of the whole dining room and doing it perfectly. The host was great helping with coffee and water service. My wife and I shared the chicken fried steak and eggs. It was excellent as usual. Great service and food.

Shout out to the front of house. They managed the throng of Black Bear aficionados and weary travelers from NB & SB The 5 exists with precision and a smile. The 4-top booth felt like a comfortable living room couch. The table was spotless. The condiment tray was well stocked. The salt & pepper shakers, ketchup bottle and the 3 bottles of proprietary Black Bear sauces were wiped. It's a personal peeve of mine (I was a waiter during grad school). When I reach for the salt or ketchup container, it's always 50/50 in n... read more
