Bacon Cheeseburger Salad
Robbie R.

I used to never give Black Bear much thought and never cane here, but a friend of mine said it was really good, so I'll give it a try. This location is in Willows, just off the 5 freeway and I'm always it seems driving this stretch of road, so here I am with one other friend. The inside looks generically familiar and clean. Service was fine and we're seated fine. I ordered this double classic burger with house salad. The bigger burgers with 6 oz or even a 14oz patty seemed a little too much at the time. This classic double had two 3 oz patties, sort of like a double double at In N Out and a bunch of fixins, like lettuce, tomato and grilled onions. The side salad was large and higher quality lettuce than most chain places. My friend ordered something pretty different, a Bacon Cheeseburger Salad! It's a big salad that has everything a bacon cheeseburger has, except the bun. It's not a lettuce wrapped burger, but a real salad with a chopped burger patty on top with a pile of cheese and bacon, served with whatever dressing you want. He actually like it a lot, despite it seeming kinda weird to me. Looked good though. I was more impressed with Black Bear Diner than I thought I was gonna be. I'll come back and maybe even try other locations.

This is the 4th Black Bear Diner I have tried. Definitely an older nostalgic feel to this one. It's right off the highway so easily accessible if your traveling. What stands out at this location was how nice the waitress Arielle was, the good music, and how quiet the diner was in the middle of the afternoon. Great place to stop if you have kids.

3egg Denver Omelet with Hash-browns & Biscuit

Cute Little diner. Very clean. Host/waitress was super nice. Food was done in a reasonable amount of time. I got the sourdough parm cheeseburger with fries huge portions. My husband got the Denver omelet with hash browns we also got a side of onion rings. Everything was so good I don't have a single complaint. I would definitely go again if I'm in willows.

This is a cool casual outdoor dining experience. They have delicious crispy chicken and I love to…read moreget it with their fresh salad in a tortilla wrap. They have killer fries and their tots are amazing. They also have excellent beers on tap and fresh brewed iced tea (when I go for lunch)! The service is just counter service but they are always nice and accommodating. I love the cold six pack of various sauces and condiments that they give you with your meal order. I love going there on a not too hot but sunny day and sitting at the picnic tables, pretending I'm not actually having to go back to work. If it's after work, this is a great place for some pub style food and a nice cold beer. There's plenty of street parking in addition to the parking space as they offer. GO - you will love your experience at Willow's Last Stand!

Visited February 28 2026. See my receipt as always…read more I decided to make one more stop since I was waiting on my friend to bring me their home made beef jerkey in Willows. This is super casual with indoor and outside seating. Feels like a locals hangout. Alot of guys hanging out and having beer and enjoying themselves. I got a grilled beef hot dog with potato salad. The potato salad was 5 stars! Nice grill on the dog. Maddy and Aaron were awesome and friendly! They have tvs to watch sports as well. Its a fun atmosphere. No frills. Alittle tight on the parking situation but a nice stop and dog friendly outside!

I chose this restaurant for my graduation celebration because I've always enjoyed eating here,…read moreespecially the birria fries. Unfortunately, this visit was a huge disappointment and not the experience I was hoping for on such a special day. Before arriving, my family called ahead to make sure they could accommodate our party of 10 and were told to come at 4:00 PM. Even with that notice, service was slow from the start. It took a while for anyone to take our order, and after our food arrived, our server essentially disappeared. We never received drink refills, and part of my little brother's meal was missing. The food was also disappointing. My meal arrived cold, and the cheese wasn't even melted. I was especially excited for the crab wontons, but they seemed burnt, almost as if they had been refried multiple times, yet somehow they were still cold when served. For a graduation dinner, this was extremely frustrating. We later learned that our server was on break and that the restaurant was short-staffed. While I understand that staffing issues happen, it was disappointing that no one appeared to be covering our table during that time. What made it even more confusing was that, by the time our party arrived, there were only about two other tables occupied in the restaurant. Because of that, the level of service we received was surprising and difficult to understand. With an automatic gratuity already included for large parties, I expected a higher level of service and food quality. Instead, both fell short. What should have been a memorable graduation celebration ended up being a disappointing experience, and I left wishing I had chosen somewhere else

Visited June 2 2026. See my receipt as always…read more I got into town alittle before 7am and of course went to my fav spot in Williams! I am not a big eater so they basically let me order the child's plate that had 1 egg..2 bacon and hash browns. Love the rye swirl bread! Coffee was super strong! Great fast service in a very welcoming and safe environment! Still had leftovers! Btw. They are celebrating their 50th anniversary this weekend with half off sandwiches along with a BBQ and live music! Unfortunately I think I might be in Chico. Don't miss this place off of highway 5!

Stumbled on this spot in Williams and it definitely has a memorable vibe. The decor is hard to miss…read morewith mounted animals all over the walls and even hanging from the ceiling, giving it a rustic, old-school steakhouse feel that makes the experience stand out. This is the place to come for steaks and drinks. The beer flight was a great way to try a variety and was easily one of the highlights. The lemoncello martini leans very sweet, almost like a sugar bomb, so it really depends on your preference. Food-wise, stick to what they do best. The steaks are solid, and this is absolutely a spot to order the prime rib, especially if you catch the Saturday special. On the other hand, the shrimp scampi was underwhelming and pretty basic, with shrimp that could have used more seasoning. Do not skip the gelato counter. The pistachio and peanut butter gelato are a must. Overall, a fun, casual spot with a unique atmosphere. Come for the steaks and beer, skip the seafood pasta and save room for gelato.
