I usually come to black bear and they usually are on point. But today I got served cold food and I mentioned it to the waitress. Then she had the audacity to say "should I make it more crispier for you?"....No, you should just make my food hot or at least warm. read more

Restaurant is cute , my toddler loves coming to "The Bear Restaurant" we've been here for both breakfast and dinner they have great options.

July 3 I took my grandkids to lunch. Forrest 12 and Riley 10 we love sitting T their counter. Riley says other than the pancakes her dad makes at home Black Bear has the best, with chocolate chips... and with them she orders French fries. They get the " Old School" chelate milk shake and split it. The staff always makes it and serves it perfectly. Forrest gets the cheeseburger and the best onion rings in the world. Sitting at the bar we enjoy watching the food come out of the kitchen and all the waitresses run about....being at the counter the kids and I get such sweet and excellent service from them all. The extra napkins, the smiles, the sincere attention to the kids and their Papa. It's a lively place and reminds me of the many dinners across America I have been to down home, original, super friendly and great food. It's also a special place to be with my grandkids as they grow up over lunch take our time and enjoy conversations and our time time. My home Oakley is a better place because of the Dinner and all the wonderful lovely people who work there. Big thank you to them all. read more

Great service and helpful to help me decide what to eat ,very nice.... Leticia Greet when she came to see how we do... she is very professional read more

I had a wonderful experience at this Black Bear because of a server. The table adjacent to the table where my family and I were seated was rather noisy for us. When we asked this incredibly nice server Lola if we could switch tables, she graciously cared after us and fully understood the situation. Lola made sure we were okay by checking in on us while we sat and ate. We had a wonderful experience since this waitress was a pleasure to speak with. Lola would greet us and depart with a pleasant smile. While the food was good, our visit was made more memorable by the warmth and joy our server displayed. Thank you Black Bear for your hospitality and thank you Lola for yours. read more

I ordered from here through door dash. All was good on the fast delivery. The two stars are for the old old eggs. I put my two over medium eggs on top of my biscuits and gravy. Took a bite and couldn't eat it cause of the old after taste from the eggs. Super disappointed in this. Ruined my breakfast. Sausage links were good. read more

It was amazing and Veronica made us laugh and she gave us great service!! Very kind ,the food was also super delicious and came quickly! Overall wonderful experience!! read more

I've been coming here for 15 years. Great service, clean and food for large appetites!!

Why did I pay 18$ for a meal I called in that was clearly less that 15$ to order on DoorDash? My order got messed up... check out my two different gravy's on my plate. Then i have to wait 3 minutes for an explanation from a manger. Who couldn't figure it out. Then to find out my food was made wrong & manger tried to fix it.... But to have the kitchen staff rolling eyes & grunting to make my meal again. Said FORGET IT!!!! & WALKED OUT. 19$ meal not eaten. Nothing like a bad experience that cost you food & money. read more
