The salad was lovely, the cornbread muffin too. To start was a salad with cornbread muffin. We both decided on the Turkey dinner, with mash potato and green beans. Our drink order was taken but we waited about 10 minutes for them to arrive. We waited around 10 minutes to be seated. My husband and I were looking forward to trying this diner for an evening meal. Thanks to our positive experience here, I plan to look for more Black Bear Diners when we travel. There's a cute little gift nook by the checkout where you can purchase Black Bear diner products like coffee mugs and black bear stuffed toys, along with a small bakery case if you just want to stroll in at the end of the day and pick up a piece of pie or cheesecake.īlack Bear Diner is a chain that was started in the PNW and now has many franchises.
Wait staff was outstanding, friendly, and attentive.
Portions were large and eggs, waffles, bacon, sausage, ham, were all top quality, well-prepared and served hot. there for dinner, but every time we drove by near dinnertime, the parking lot was packed, so I have to assume that dinner was great, too. After the first breakfast, we were hooked & returned a few more times. Terrific breakfasts - we stayed at a neighboring hotel that did not have an on-site restaurant, so Black Bear Diner was our go-to for breakfast for several days. This was not a good experience, and I doubt if we will return. What in the world?!? I don't know if our waitress was grumpy or unhappy with us over something, but she was overall far from pleasant. She then came back and said, "Oh, sorry" and took it back. Then the waitress who had gotten my plate came over and gave us a $5 discount coupon (again no comment or apology). Finally, it arrived newly made with sauerkraut. I waited for a while watching my husband eat and for the food to come back out. Finally, another waitress came over, and I told her the problem and she took the plate. I could not get our waitress to come over. I asked for a menu to be certain it had been described as being part of the sandwich, and, of course, it was because that is a main ingredient of a Reuben. I actually carefully looked through both halves of the sandwich to see if I was missing anything and it had just gotten pushed over or something, but there was no sauerkraut whatsoever. In the first bite, I quickly realized there was not sauerkraut at all. Their diners' club was advertising some corned beef options for St. had not come yet and she said he was bringing it. First of all, the bill arrived before the food did. Today was a different experience altogether. We have been to this Black Bear Diner a number of times, drawn back by the good food and friendly service.
