Black Bear Diner is like going back in time. It's kind of what you expect from a diner but we liked it. I had the veggie scramble with hash browns. Top layer of hash browns was good, under part was not as much. My husband had the Bear's Choice Breakfast. I also had the cookies and cream milkshake which was really good. Service was good. Bathroom was clean.

Lots of people there, mostly locals. We generally stop when in the area. Service was better this time. Food not so much. But everyone has there day. (Hash browns not so good this time). I would say meatloaf was good, as some desserts. Waitress was more alert of customers and their needs. Last time different waitress had taken orders and then seen her when time pay.

Current menu as of JUNE 25 2025 The hostess wasn't paying attention to the line so I shouted i was next . Communication between staff isn't good. The actual server was nice. So you get an extra star for that. Yall need to do something about the bread pudding demand. Never have any by 10am and that goes for the mt Shasta location which I suspect is owned by the same people as this yreaka location. Make more bread pudding....you make more money. You know, instead of being sold out and unhappy customers.

Salad was pretty good was a Taco Salad. I Would recommend it, fresh ingredients and shell was cooked perfectly. Waitress was very good. However the people working in back room bus boy and dish washers were the most rude and annoying staff I have seen in a while. I am far from a prude and love music yet they had some extreme Punk music blasting from the dish washing area. Every time the door swung open this extreme punk music, with very colorful language which amazed me. It was bad enough that after 15-20 minutes of this I asked for my check and left before finishing my food. It was not just me I am a 45 year old man who loves loud music I was embarrassed for the senior citizens that were in there. I made eye contact a few times and could just sense the disappointment in the room. It was the bus boy, dishwasher and one other gentleman in the back room that just were bad energy. I was surprised every time I have been to Black Bear I have left very happy. Can’t say that any longer.

The Black Bear chain stands for consistent, fast and a good sampling of American fare, from hearty breakfasts to good burgers! It's a family-friendly diner with a mountains-feel!

Tried for second time to dine in. My daughter's boyfriend wanted to treat us to lunch. My daughter and I always spit an order being they are generous portions. \nWe spilt the california burger, i…

Good variety, generous portions of down home cooking. Service is friendly and quick. Restaurant has clean dining area and they provide historic reading and coloring for the kids.

The good news: great service. Very clean bathrooms. The bad news: poor quality food. My avocado toast w/poached egg was bland and boring. The hash browns were tasteless. Not worth a 2nd visit.

Ya went n burnt the sweet tazer fries!🥺 For a guy who hasn't eaten these in probably 10 years, this was no way to get me excited about doing it again! Your coffee is flat. I will likely not be coming back.

What a treat! The Tri-Tip Dip was absolutely delicious — tender, flavorful, and satisfying. The kids really enjoyed their Grilled Cheese and BLT sandwiches, which were well-prepared and hit the spot. The only downside was the customer service. Staff seemed more focused on chatting with friends than clearing tables or checking in with customers, which took away from an otherwise great dining experience. With a bit more attention to service, this place could be a five-star spot. We’ll likely be back for the food!

Well folks. Wait staff polite and pleasant. They checked on us regularly and took our orders quickly. My wife's meal and mine were a bit above average.\n\nIn the downside, when we sat down at the tab…

The food is stupendous. Everything is delicious but the service was terrible. Not once did the waitress come to my table to ask for coffee refill. And when I got to the register they handled pies with their bare hands which is a health violation. If you're handling money you have to put gloves on when you're handling food. I don't know why the restaurant allowed the checkout person to not wear gloves. Very disappointed in this one. The other ones were great

After having vehicle troubles. We had to get a motel. Been to a few black bear diners before and had great experiences. The town not having any place to get a rental car we had to use doordash. We got our food on time. It was missing both my daughter's and my onion rings. Now as a doordasher my self is know the bags are sealed. The meat on our burgers was in pieces and every time we tried to pick it up it just fell apart. This was the first time I have ever been so disappointed in black bear diner.

Came in with a group of 3 people for dinner. We ended up waiting 20 minutes and still no one came to greet us. I would understand if the restaurant was busy, but it was a Wednesday night with 5 oth…

DO NOT spend time here if you are a commuter passing by for a rest stop. Just 1 bathroom for whole diner. Expect Long queues!! The servers have no sense of taking orders based on first come first served. We waiting 28 mins and then had to leave, very annoyed and disappointing. People at the counter were rude. They were serving random tables, irrespective of who came first. Very unprofessional!! If you have 2 hrs to sit and relax then may be stop here, but there are a lots of good places in the vicinity

Disappointed in service & food here. In the middle of making a Togo order, waitress stopped to take a phone call of an order she placed for Togo order and it was wrong. She walked away and talked to irate customer and I gave order to another waitress. Simple grilled chicken Cobb salad. Both waitresses placed 4 dressings in a bag and then my salad. I asked her to remove 3 dressings I won’t use and left. The salad had very few ingredients and the chicken was FRIED! It was like trying to chew rubber and was cold. My dog couldn’t eat it and I had to throw it I. The trash. Garbage! I had pulled off freeway driving from Cali to Oregon and expected a healthy, fresh meal. That was NOT THE CASE. Poor service and terrible food. $20 (salad and tip) for garbage. Will not return and do not recommend. Also trash area filthy outside. Wonder what kitchen looks like? Not fresh, lacking care in prep, old, dried out fried chicken pieces inedible.
