    Caprese Sandwich
    Danielle B.

    I have been to Black Bear Coffee three times, and each time it has been great! The Caprese Sandwich was great with generous pesto on top. The teas I have ordered here are very good too (I would like a bigger selection of teas though)! They have a good selection of desserts, but I haven't tried one yet. Next time! Service is friendly and pleasant. The ambiance is welcoming with fun art pieces on the walls. I have seen groups here as a meet-up location, people with computers, solo diners, and people hanging out socially. Parking is cheap parking on the street. Looking forward to my next visit to Hendersonville. I will stop here again!

    Best coffee I've had in a long time. Love this location on Main Street and the staff is very friendly. I drink decaf so it's really hard to find good coffee that isn't too weak or bitter. Absolutely love their Cozy Cub latte hot or iced. Have been meaning to try their food items as they look and sound great as well. This is definitely our go to coffee spot only wish they stayed open later hours.

    Both times I have visited Hendersonville I have loved stopping at this coffee shop. Their specialty coffees are very good, with the dreamsicle being very latest favorite. The staff is very friendly and handle long lines with ease. Their long hours are great and convenient. The outdoor and indoor seating is plentiful. Highly recommend visiting this shop while you are in town!

    There is something unique about small town living. Friendly and inviting always come to mind and this place covers that. Friendly staff and a nice array of coffee and drink.choices. A small but adequate pastry selection and breakfast and lunch offerings. The coffee was done well and while a little slow on the breakfast sandwich delivery it was good and fresh. Prices are what they are for what you get but the attraction to sit outside and enjoy the town is a huge plus. Interior seating is also very well laid out and spacious. If your in town sit back relax and enjoy small town USA.

    Trendy coffee Cafe in the middle of Main Street. The salted carmal mocha and the hot chocolate were exceptional. The service was friendly but a bit slow. The artisan Italian sandwich was good but the prosciutto was very tough and chewy. The grilled cheese was good, not sure why they added prosciutto slivers to it.

    Best matcha I've had in a long time. They adjusted the sweetness as requested and served up the drink quickly! Seems like a great local coffee shop on the main St!

    Medium Cozy Cub with oat milk
    Beth B.

    What great use of a such a large space! Love the high ceilings and spacious room. The staff were friendly, and my drink was AH-mazing! I had a yummy Cozy Cub with oat milk (I always appreciate finding non-dairy options). The drink was just the right amount of sweet without being overly so. Would def come back.

    Hot chocolate - absolutely amazing! Avocado toast - flavorful and very filling. You could definitely share this Bought some organic coffee as it's difficult to find in these parts. Be aware as not all options are organic for some reason. Would come back to try other types of drinks

    We arrived in Hendersonville NC to visit for the weekend. After a long day of driving we were happy to find Black Bear Coffee downtown! I had a delicious strawberry iced latte with oat milk and my BF had a s'mores latte. Both were amazing! They had lots of people working and it was a cool Vibe.

    Decided to try these guys while in town, and I'm glad I did. Their chai is on point, and the kiddo liked being able to pick out a pastry from the display. The pop tart is HUGE!

    Ahhhhh.... I am at my favorite coffee shop, Black Bear Coffee Co, 318 N. Main St in beautiful downtown Hendersonville. I WAS going to order a Honey Lavender latte this morning but this darn Nutty Irishman Latte kept calling my name. "Pick me! Pick me! I'm Seasonal! Pick me!" I mean... how can you say no to a delicious Latte made with Hazelnut and Irish Cream syrup and skim milk... large, extra, extra hot??? I just love this coffee shop...my favourites coffees are their Chai or their Mocha Frozen Frapps. I will order them year round..it can be 20° out and I'm ordering frozen Frapps! Of course, I do love their many different flavors of hot coffee choices as well! They always have a nice assortment of menu items such as pastries, salads, sandwiches etc. Beers and wines as well! Can't beat their fantastic, friendly and knowledgeable service! Love the staff at Black Bear! I love their relaxing, feel-good atmosphere, the nice background music and I especially,love their beautiful outdoor patios. So ....Hats off to Black Bear Coffee Co! Thank you for being here! Love you guys!

    I have been to Black Bear three times over my recent visit to Hendersonville. Each visit has been very pleasant. Clearly the staff have a connection with locals which I appreciat. I had single origin Counter Culture from nicaragua--a solid coffee in the light range. While it was piping hot at 7, it had lost some of its warmth when I came in at 8:30. The dark chocolate/raspberry scone was excellent with both flavors spread generously through the scone. The scone had a crisp texture which I prefer to the softer, doughier forms. My wife enjoyed a pumpkin muffin from the texture standpoint but could have used a tad more cinnamon. I had a chocolate croissant the previous day and the chocolate to croissant ratio was much more than i had typically found at many other coffee shops.

    Morning coffee and my "office" for about three hours today, I found a table towards the back next to a power outlet. With that, I was able to enjoy some morning wakeup while pounding away at the keyboard. Decent enough for a Teams meeting with really good noise cancelling hardware otherwise you would definitely need to go elsewhere. Clean, quiet, comfortable. Great coffee and working wifi. This was a great stop. [Review 20109 overall - 3465 in North Carolina - 1085 of 2023.]

    Visiting Hendersonville. Stopped in for coffee and bagel. Apparently it takes a whole kitchen to warm a bagel.

They have a drive through, but considering that it was my first time here, I wanted to get a better idea of the options/menu, so we went in. It gives off old school diner eclectic vibes, which is cool with me. The staff was friendly and greeted us after finishing up the drink they were making. We took some time to check out the menu & landed on an iced Turtle - one of those listed under "specialty drinks," which was caramel, dark chocolate, and butter pecan. I was a little nervous when I got it because of the amount of syrup in the bottom, so I gave it a good stir. Flavor was a little strong, mostly from the dark chocolate (which I'm not the biggest dark chocolate fan to begin with), but after a good mix, all blended pretty well. I enjoyed the flavor and would certainly drink it again, but would like to try another option to explore more of the menu. Definitely worth a visit if you're passing through the area.

They also have loose leaf tea jars that you can bring up and they will make a cup of tea for you. They have pastries, hand made crafts and other small items for sale. Staff were quick and friendly. Overall it's a cute, old fashioned little place that I would totally come back to next time I'm in town.
