I had a craving for meatloaf and mashed potatoes so here we are. Let's go! I was greeted upon arrival with a big smile and hearty greeting. Felt welcome. I ordered the meatloaf with mashed potatoes, broccoli, warm cornbread and a side Caesars salad. The salad dressing was amazing! I asked if it were made in-house and was surprised that it's not. It's Ken' Metropolitan SelectRomanCaesar Dressing. You can taste the anchovies... so good. The food was dry satisfying. The broccoli was buttery and had a nice garlic flavor. The mashed potatoes were real ad the gravy flavorful. With club soda, dinner and 25% tip, it came to $23... very happy. read more

Came here for breakfast on a Saturday morning a couple months ago. Black Bear has a homey feel, and service was surprisingly quick for a prime breakfast time. I've eaten at a few Black Bears, and my main critique is that the food isn't anything special. It's good, just not unique. For instance, my open-faced turkey sandwich tasted like pretty much every other open-faced turkey sandwich I've ever tried. The biggest standout was the blackberry bear claw, which we shared among our party. read more

Always a Solid Stop We stopped in at the Black Bear Diner in Draper for breakfast. I've been to Black Bear before and even to this exact location, so I already knew it was a safe bet. It didn't disappoint. The place had a quiet, easy vibe. Not too busy, and if you know, you know. It has that comforting, rustic charm that always hits the spot. Hubby had scrambled eggs with cheese, toast, and hash browns, plus a hot coffee. I went for the avocado toast with an egg, red potatoes on the side, and added a side of bacon. Everything was delicious, hot, and fresh. Our waiter, Davio, is originally from London and brought great energy to the table. Super friendly, attentive, and quick without hovering. We were in and out quickly, full and happy. If you're anywhere near Draper or have the opportunity to dine at a Black Bear, it's a solid breakfast spot. I'd absolutely stop at again. read more

We came for breakfast this morning, being a Monday it was not busy. We were seated right away and our waitress took our drink order. We decided what we wanted to order and after about 15 minutes my husband had to holler to get our waitress's attention, (was too busy talking with 2 other employees at the end of the counter). My husband wanted his ocuntry potatoes deep fried so they would be crispy, I did not but mine were deep fried as well. We yet again had to holler for the waitress so we could pay and get out of there,(yet again too busy talking). My husband tried talking to the manager about our poor experience and he just brushed him off, not really caring at all. I would NOT recommend this place unless you want poor service and sub-par food. Also I saw another waitress take toast off a plate to have the cooks toast it more with her bare hands, very un-sanitary!! read more

Finally, this was my first time checking out a Black Bear Diner for dinner. From the outside, it always looks like a nice place for a meal. Their menu was in the form of a newspaper. I ordered their New York Steak & Eggs with grits and sourdough toast. The menu said that it was a USDA Choice Meats by Linz steak. Can't say that I've heard of that particular brand, but it was good. I got coffee to go with my meal. I always love places that serve breakfast all day. I might say that it was better than eating at a Cracker Barrel! The service was also very nice and friendly. I would not mind eating here again! read more

The Black Bear Diner is okay. I think the food isn't memorable. I got the Bread Pudding French Toast and it had raisins in it. The server was really nice. read more

The staff are all very friendly and welcoming! Tables and floors were clean. Unfortunately I thought the food is just okay. I got the Volcano this time (with french toast instead of pancakes) and I think it was a good size meal for the price, but the food is okay . The bacon was a bit overcooked in my opinion. The french toast was a normal french toast. The eggs were cooked exactly how I liked them though! And the coffee was okay too. Overall a 3/5 for me. read more

Service was so good, Gary was so super nice and helpful. He definitely made my experience at this restaurant better and he would be the only reason i'd come again. Not gonna lie food was really butt, unseasoned and not worth its price. read more

Great food!! Just like we used to get at home!!! Great pancakes. Service is great! Ordered meal with mashed potato's and gravey loved it!!! read more

We came to the dinner about 430. It was very slow with only 1-2 other customer. It took well over 10 mins to be sat, we were seen by the cook several times. Once seated service was ok. When the food was served a hair was clearly visible across my omelette. I ask for it to be remade. The rest of my family received subpar food. My "new plate" was seen the the serving window for well over 10 mins. The waitress (Kiara F) checked in asked in we needed anything. I asked for a box and for my food that I never received. The two waitresses working were seen chatting and laughing with each other and the cook most of our stay ant the restaurant. After receiving the new plate the omelette had minimal ham and the hash browns were burnt. read more

We love Black Bear near us in Phoenix and we were pleased to see one near our hotel so we didn't have to try and find a spot for a bite to eat. While they serve breakfast all day I opted for lunch this go round. Even though I love their sweet cream pancakes and sometimes eggs benedict. Today I opted for a simple BLT. A few others at the table ordered breakfast, chicken fried steak and more. Service was a bit slow at first, but once he came not only was he funny; he was quick, attentive and even played with my nephews cute little baby . Our area was clean and we had no issues. Only issue if that was that we stood quite a while at the hostess station before someone came up to help find us a table and seat us. read more

Gary is a amazing server! Great food and even better service! 10/10 recommend. Ask for Gary or Nikkie!

After visiting the local Draper Living Planet Aquarium, four of us patronized our local Black Bear Diner on the other side of I-15. We've been here many times before and used to patronize the BBD more often when the kids were youngsters. But it was nice to return to the Draper BBD last Wednesday night. We were seated immediately and waited on by Kaia who did a very nice job taking care of our slightly off-kilter dinner orders. The four of us enjoyed two omelets, a bacon cheddar burger, and eggs benedict. All were pretty good tasting but could have been brought out hotter. We also enjoyed hot tea, hot chocolate, a soft drink, and iced tea...and each drink was $3.39. Huh? I get that they were unlimited refills, but $3.39 for hot tea and iced tea, each? Sure, I get the current economy, but really? Also, the seating area needed a lot of attention as multiple tables were un-bussed and the carpeting needed a good vacuuming. It was pretty filthy and made the wrong impression on us. That, and the restrooms had no warm water...just ice cold...and the faucet in the men's room needed serious repair. We got out of there at $83.03 due to two add-ons to one of the omelets (sausage links and baked salmon), but still...it was of kind of pricey for this kind of establishment...don't you think? Oh, and the managers need to get in there and pay some attention to detail...getting tables bussed and floors vacuumed. Three Stars for an "OK experience" that could easily have been better! read more

Gary was cool and super nice and friendly, the food is underwhelming and under seasoned though, the steak doesnt seem 10 oz and isnt a ny strip tastes more like cheap sirloin, good service but the food here is not good and the presentation is bad i think theres a lot of potential but just not executed great read more

The wife and I went in late afternoon before the dinner rush. We had a great time and the server was fantastic (Ella). She answered all our questions with a smile on her face and checked back with us often as I always need more napkins because I'm messy! Our drinks were kept full. The steak and eggs with potatoes was very good. My wife loved her chicken avocado sandwich which she had never had before. The pricing for the meals was good. read more

We come here every other Sunday for family brunch. The servers are always friendly, and the food consistent.

We came here to start of my mom's birthday, our waiter was so sweet and was happy to make my mom's breakfast great. We did wait a little bit for the food but our waiter was constantly coming to check on us and make sure our waters were full. This restaurant is so cute and I love the little bear details everywhere. When our food came it was hot and delicious. Once again our waiter was going above and beyond bringing extra syrup. To end our huge meal she brought my mom this delicious sundae. It was so good! I think this diner is a great option and the prices are great! I will be coming back! read more

Quick service, wonderful and attentive waitress, delightful atmosphere, and delicious food! I enjoyed the crispy chicken ranch wrap.

I had the worst meals of my life. I ordered Chicken Fried Steak with eggs and a side salad. The chicken fried steak and gravy was absolutely terrible. It was cold and flavorless. The hashbrowns were saturated in grease. The biscuit was so hard and dry I couldn't break off a piece with my hands. I had to saw it with a knife. And the side salad was nothing but strange lettuce with shredded carrots, gross. The waiter kept forgetting about us. We had to call him over to take our order and he forgot to bring things we asked for. I will NEVER eat there again. So not worth the time or money! read more

Pretty good food. I like the roast beef. Fish and chips were pretty good. The do a very good breakfast.

Excellent food... nice environment... good service and very friendly...... seems like we never have to wait to be seated as well....

We love eating at BBD and we love our server Joy she is the best and on top of her profession, but the woman that was working the area where the food comes out, I think her name is Lucy, she is the worst co-worker to have for these serves. We where eating and she was yelling joys name in a very condescending way more than once, Lucy is very unprofessional and made our experience eating there horrible, someone really needs to teach her how to be more professional!!! Joy is one of the best servers I have had, please give her a promotion, and give Lucy a demotion as far as we are concerned! read more

The definition of a breakfast diner. Killer hash browns and large portions. The great service is just the cherry on top.

Came here with my nephew as he gave me a ride to drop my car off. Service was great in the beginning and then was nonexistent when the large party of 20-30 people had arrived. The fried chicken and fish n chips were really good. They couldn't seem to get the banana cream pie right and kept bringing out the coconut cream pie (2x). When paying for the meal they were able to take it off the bill. On the fence with this place and might return. read more

We were seated at1215 the sever took our order at1225 .many were seated after us and all received their meals at 115 we asked the manager if we had been forgotten . He assures us the food would be right up. Four large orders and 15 minutes later we walked out. This was inexcusable read more

Sophia was the best!! She was so sweet and made sure we had everything we needed. We will ask for her in the future. Food was delicious!

I gave them a four star because of the service. If it was only based on food it would be a five. I'm staying in a hotel right next to the restaurant. I ordered the chicken fried steak. They forgot the ranch dressing for my salad so I had to walk back over to get it. Made me a bit frustrated so I thought I would old light them up on reviews. But the food saved them. Very good food. The chicken fried steak was really good. I had a chicken fried steak once in Texas that was supposed to be the best ever. Well, this was as good or maybe better. So to wrap it up, food saved them from a bad review. read more

Chill place. Bfast was good although we did it simple. Eggs potato bacon pancakes etc. potatoes and bacon weren't very crispy so if you like it that way suggest tell them when ordering. That made a mistake in order and fixed it and removed item from check without even asking. Server was super friendly. . Would go back again. read more

There were 3 of us that arrived at 5:45 pm for dinner. The restaurant was not crowded. We ordered simple food, the chicken luau, breakfast platter, and tri-tip dip sandwich. We all ordered at the same time. I could see my chicken and the breakfast platter under the heat lamp. We waited and we waited. Waitress brought them out after a long wait. No sandwich. By then, it had been over 30 minutes since we ordered. The two orders she brought out were not hot. It took 10 more minutes to get the sandwich. Cold food when it should be hot is not good. Waitress gave no explanation. I don't think that I'll go back. read more

If you like 50's much and mediocre food this might be the place for you. Omelet was fine nothing special. Hash brown were blah. Bacon was very salty - but that's bacon right?!? Service was fine but nothing amazing. The overall experience is it was mediocre. I wouldn't come back again but had to try it once. I did like the coffee, for a diner. read more

Black Bear sends me a free breakfast every year for my birthday, and I wouldn't skip it! I went here on a Sunday at 9am with my mom and grandma. It was actually not as busy as I anticipated, which was nice. I was seated immediately. Our server was very nice and helpful. We oddly caught a weird cold draft in our area although it was freezing outside. She checked on it for us and fixed it, and we were quite comfortable the rest of the time. While I rarely drink juice these days, I would recommend giving BBD's orange juice a try. It is amazing. I normally get some combination of eggs, bacon, and either potatoes or French Toast (the Bear's Choice breakfast gets you a taste of everything!). On this visit, I got French toast. I've found the biscuit and gravy to be pretty decent, and the waffles to be a lot denser than I'd prefer. Their pancakes are delicious, but pretty heavy--just a heads up if you prefer light and fluffy. I love their portion sizes and how quickly the food comes out of the kitchen. Their little shop is also very cute and fun to browse. I'll keep coming to BBD for breakfast and recommend you give it a go too! read more
