    I stopped here for breakfast one Saturday morning. It was rather busy which probably explains the slow service. I ordered from the "make your own breakfast" section of the menu. Two scrambled eggs, two pork sausages, and 2 sweet cream pancakes were what I assembled. The eggs and sausages were good but the pancakes...oh those pancakes were amazing. They were so light and pillowy soft inside and the flavor was delightful. They provided a small ramekin of syrup, which wasn't nearly enough for these two large suckers, but I never could flag down our waiter to get more. Sigh. Pay on the way out at the register.

    Homemade Meatloaf. $11.89. Ground beef and seasoned sausage. Roasted then topped with beef gravy and a deep-fried onion ring.

    We had an OK lunch at Black Bear Diner in Newberg, Oregon. Black Bear Diner is a national restaurant chain with, at the time of writing this review, over 150 locations in over a dozen states. Most locations are on the West Coast, but there are a few as far east as Missouri and Arkansas. The type of cuisine served is classic American. This restaurant worked out for our group of eight because: (1) we were in the area doing a wine tour (Willamette Valley / Oregon Wine Country) and this restaurant's location was convenient to the wineries/vineyards we went to and (2) the restaurant was able to accommodate our somewhat large group, as walk-in customers, in fairly short order (we didn't have a reservation and I don't know if this place even takes them). This was on a Saturday around 1:45pm. While the restaurant is spacious and had plenty of open tables, we had to wait about 10-15 minutes for a table to be prepared for us. Maybe they were short-staffed. Black Bear Diner is old-fashioned Americana. From the outside in, the atmosphere is like dining in a wooden lodge, complete with brick fireplace, antler chandeliers, and art and decor featuring black bears and images evocative of the American West. I like it. In the front, they had a small display case of various pies, cobblers, cakes, brownies, and other desserts. The menus looked like black-and-white newspapers and were titled, "The Black Bear Gazette." They even have a jukebox. Neat. The menu had an extensive selection and I thought the prices were reasonable, at least, for what I got. I had the Homemade Meatloaf ($11.89) from the "Little Less" Dinner section of the menu. Little Less dinners include seasonal vegetables and red-skinned mashed potatoes with country gravy. In other words, less calories and healthier. My meatloaf was made with a "special recipe of ground beef and seasoned sausage," roasted and topped with beef gravy and a deep-fried onion ring. I can't remember if I substituted my seasonal vegetables out with one of Black Bear Diner's regular "homestyle" sides, Italian green beans with bacon. Regardless, that's what I had as my vegetable (green beans and bacon). Overall, the meal wasn't anything to write home about, but it was filling and satisfying nonetheless. I like this kind of food, and meatloaf in particular, and it wasn't bad. It served its purpose. On the menu, I noticed they offered all-you-can-eat fried fish for $15.99 (includes fries, hushpuppies, coleslaw, and tartar sauce) on Fridays after 4pm. They also have prime rib on Fridays and Saturdays after 4pm. In general, I think Black Bear Diner is ideal for families with kids, groups, and for a casual breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's easy. Service was good. Our server was polite and efficient. The hostess was fine. Not the warmest welcome. The section where our table was located, at the southeast corner of the dining room, was frigid. The AC was cranked up way too high. One of us had to go to the car and get some jackets.

    Santa Maria Tri-Tip* (240 cals.) the calories don't include the sides.

    I really want to like this place but they aren't fantastic. The steak is overly salty, the mashed potatoes are rehydrated, but at least the kids pancakes are massive. The servers are always friendly to us, and the atmosphere is not overtly warm but isn't cold shoulder either. We will be back as there aren't a lot of pancakes for dinner options in Newberg, but it's not a first choice.

    Over medium eggs, like rubber.  Don't advertise all day breakfast if the lunch cook is clueless.

The accompanying fondue was so good to dip the Croquettes into. We finished with a Ham and Brie Sandwich that was excellent, accompanied by crisp and hot french fries.

I tried the grilled cheese which my sister got too - yummy, but there's a sticky cheese on there that I didn't love. Greens that came with all items were weird. Didn't eat them - don't know what they were.

Thankfully I pulled over in the lot to eat, so I didn't get far before I noticed my meal had come with fries instead of the salads. The salads were half the reason I wanted to eat there. I walked up to the window to ask why I had gotten fries, and the woman told me they were out of the salads. That's definitely something she should've mentioned when I ordered, but she didn't. I pointed that out to her and explained I wouldn't have wanted it if I had known. She offered to let me return my meal, but I suggested she refund half and let me keep it, which she agreed to. The piroshki was a good size and well seasoned with plenty of filling. The fries looked seasoned but didn't taste like it. They needed salt and/or some kind of sauce. I didn't order any sauces because I didn't know I was getting fries, but they should've come with something complimentary IMO. They were extremely slow for a Friday afternoon on a very busy road. The prices on their website are considerably less than at the shop ($18 vs $15.50 for my meal), and there wasn't a current menu pic on Yelp (which I've since added). I would've skipped it altogether if I had known what they were charging. I imagine that's part of the reason they're so slow. Minus two stars for not explaining they were out of half my meal before preparing it, plus one for offering a fair solution, minus one for sub-par fries and nothing to eat them with. Minus one for inconsistent pricing.

I would have gone 5-star, except I made the mistake of asking for the green salsa, and putting it all over the tacos.

Obviously my fault for not testing the waters carefully -- but it did affect my enjoyment of the evening. Just be forewarned!
