    Clam Chowder
    Mark Maureen C.

    We had a Philly sandwich, a french dip and clam chowder. The clam chowder was more of a potato soup. It was good but not a typical clam chowder. It was great for dinner, reasonably priced and friendly service. The restaurant had a old western feel and could have used some attention to cleanliness but it was a fine experience.

    I Landed at this non- tower airport, that's right next to the highway. Across the street from Walmart, and lucky to catch this cafe while it was still open. We first self- serve, and refueled our aircraft. Once we walked outside the gate, this cafe was walking distance. We were given a table right away. The waitress was very attentive, and gave us some time to look over the menu. Glad we shared a meal, because the Philly cheesesteak was enormous. The sweet potatoes fries was a bonus. I love the chocolate pie, because it reminded me of nation chocolate pies.

    Food was great and the people and the place was wonderful. The waitress was very friendly to my Grandson. We stopped by before going home from camping and they even offered to let our fur baby come sit with us.

    Love this spot. Once it was the cafe of an active runway. Now, peaceful gardens in the front and back are remnants of a quieter time. Good food and service.

    Nancy's Airport Cafe just off the main drag.

    Thank you Jody and all the other staff for making our visit so memorable. This local classic has been providing comfort food and great homemade pies for 60 years. I met Nancy when she was 80-something years old and that was memorable. My husband loved the pulled pork with onion crisps. I had the classic triple decker with turkey. Half came home with me. Both sandwiches included crisp fries. We both enjoyed a cold beer. Three of the couples dining had also flown in for lunch. Napa and Tracy were homemade for two couples. Big windows offer views of the runway. Comfortable booths and tables. This Willows landmark is definitely worth a visit.

    Food We ordered breakfast food which is served all day long. We had veggie omelette and pancakes. The eggs were really fluffy and the omelette was flavorful. The pancakes were also fluffy and yummy. The hash browns were crispy on the outside but soft and moist in the inside. This place is a hidden gem. Service Although there was only one server, she was friendly and our orders were taken swiftly and served right away. She also checked on us a few times. She was not only attentive but her attention to detail is on point. Ambiance This place is your typical diner. Not fancy at all but clean. Lots of parking space. It's easy to get off and on the freeway. We will definitely come back.

    Small airports for some reason always have a great place to eat, even if you're not flying in and just driving. This airport cafe has some of the best breakfast around. I had a big omelet served with hash browns and toast. The coffee was good too. Service is prompt and no probs at all. Good place to stop if you're in the area. The food is super scrumptious. Prices average.

    Visited February 28 2026. See my receipt as always…read more I ordered the hobo omelete with a side of biscuits and gravy for breakfast.. HUGE portions! The omelete was overflowing with bacon and ham. The biscuits and gravy were tasty! I am only about 130 pounds so most of this was to go and share it with my boyfriend. They have a good menu with alot of specials. Casual and comfortable atmosphere! They also have beer and wine and other drinks. I wanted to get a banana creme pie to go but they were out of them. They also have a cute gift shop centering around bears. Sandra waited on me and she was delightful! Friendly and hard working staff! Bring your appetite because the portions are huge! Convenient off of highway 5 with plenty of parking. Definitely recommend!

    I used to never give Black Bear much thought and never cane here, but a friend of mine said it was…read morereally 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.

    Visited April 19 2026...see my receipt as always…read more TERRIBLE FOOD! You know I don't ever give a bad review unless it's warranted! I realize the honest review is not favorable. I ordered the lunch special ( it was to go but I like to see and sample the food first). Thank goodness I did..the soup was oily and chewey and not edible. I gave it back to her with my concerns but she said nothing. The fried rice looked like it had been recooked a few times ..gross! The chicken dish had a few pieces of meat with what looked like expired vegetables! I saw past reviews and should have known better. Never again!

The happy family tofu was absolutely delicious, and I loved the way the fried bean curd soaked up the sauce. There were plenty of veggies in the dish like baby corn, snap peas, and bamboo shoots. Our server was friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed getting to chat with her. She was very helpful and attentive. Stop by Wong's the next time you're in Willows!

One of the two…read morerestrooms was out of order with no signage indicating so, causing a line to form for the single working restroom, which was left in poor condition. Despite the store being far from busy, there was no effort to welcome customers -- no greeting at all, unlike the standard I've come to expect at Starbucks locations nationwide. When my 78-year-old mother, who has some difficulty hearing, asked about the summer drink menu and requested samples, the employee helping us was distracted, curt, and visibly irritated by the questions. She informed us there would be a 20-minute wait because she needed to help other customers, despite there being only three other people in the store, none of whom were waiting to order. When we said we'd rather leave, she reversed course and explained she actually needed to prepare samples for other customers first -- a detail she hadn't mentioned initially. The interaction felt dismissive and disrespectful, particularly toward a senior customer, and I found the lack of transparency frustrating. Having worked in customer service myself, I was surprised by this level of service at a company that prides itself on the customer experience. Based solely on service and cleanliness, I would not recommend this location and won't be returning.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
