"This place has excellent food. Breakfast foods Burgers, Steaks. Homemade desserts pies bear claws. Very clean restaurant plenty of seating. Take the whole family. They have merchandise for sale. Booths, tables or a bar style area. They also have a sun room style area to eat in. Very unique decorations inside. Log style chairs. Carvings of bears, deer antler chandeliers. I definitely recommend this place. Everyone can find something to eat hear. Kids can color also. Thank you Black Bear diner you are awesome"

"First time visiting Black Bear Diner and we really enjoyed our experience. The black bear decor was really fun and the menu is pretty vast. We ordered breakfast items: Strawberry Waffles ($12.29), Bread Pudding French Toast ($13.39) with a side of thick cut bacon ($6.29) and The Volcano Breakfast which includes 3 pancakes, scrambled eggs, bacon and sausage links ($13.99). The portion sizes are definitely shareable or enough to take home for another meal. Everything was super tasty and we would order everything again.
Service was as attentive as we wanted and needed.
We are excited to return to try their lunch and dinner items and some of their desserts. I think this may be one of our favorite restaurants now."

"Visiting that place is always such a joy! They serve a delightful English breakfast that I truly look forward to. I love their breakfast offerings, especially the waffles and variations of sweet treats like pancakes; they always bring a smile to my face. This time, I opted for the avocado toast, and even though it was incredibly busy—making us wait almost 30 minutes to get a table—it was still worth it. The atmosphere there is always lively, and I really appreciate the experience. Thank you for such lovely moments!"
