Black Bear Diner Napa Reviews
I know Black Bear, but I just moved here. Not all franchises are the same. I was really hungry and I was glad I tried it out. I will definitely be back!! I want to try the breakfast for sure And the deserts. It is a great place to go if you’re really hungry. Old fashioned good food. ——Matt
Unbelievable how fast the food came out. Huge portions- tasted great. Super busy for breakfast on a Sunday but we got in with zero wait !
Amazing service and amazing food. Michelle is always a pleasure. Always love coming here with my family.
Marcos, the gm, was absolutely fantastic! We had lunch catered to my office and he delivered the food himself. He was helpful, knowledgeable, and so friendly! They brought lots of gluten free and vegetarian options for myself and others in the office that needed it. The food itself was amazing as well. 10/10 recommend
Marcos & chefs staff, a masterful conductor of an orchestra of culinary perfection not missing a beat as the symphony of chefs produce flawless music in every plate. Ericka & Cheyenne meet and greet and seat you with professionalism and cater to your every dining need. All while smiling genuinely. A tango of plates, customers and coffee.... Great Spot, Great Staff, Great Food..
Great food...diner-ish so lots of options. Service was quick and delivered with a smile.
Love, Love, 💖. So glad that I stopped for breakfast. First to.er and I most certainly will return when I'm in town again. Great breakfast..the scramble. Thank you Francisco for a great dining experience.
I was here twice in 2 days. Food was great. Service was lacking both times. Waited for refills and they never came. One was lunch/dinner the other was 10 am.
This store seems to have a lot of regulars. Customers walk in and the servers know their beverage of choice and entree! Great service, fair prices, and good food with decent portions! This is my second Black Bear Diner to review and it’s been consistent! I do have to say that the decor seems a bit tired and there was a musty smell in the dining area when I walked in. Other than that, it was a pretty nice experience!

I had heard of the Black Bear chain, and this was my first time to try it. The place is large and bright. The menu is fairly large, with something for almost everyone. My breakfast was huge. I coul…
WE were there about 30 minutes after they opened and waited about five minutes to be seated and given a menu. About twelve minutes later someone came and took out order and soon thereafter coffee …
Our server Josue was an absolute joy. Very attentive and engaging. The portions are huge and prices very reasonable. I get the appeal for families and people with big appetites and tight budgets. Definitely salty though. Be careful if you have high blood pressure. Seems like some ingredients are canned or processed, adding to the salt load. Service 5 stars, value 5 stars, food...meh...3-4 stars
We've been going to Black Bear in Napa ever since it opened several years ago. We always liked the atmosphere- kinda rustic. The staff have always (except once) been excellent. Great ladies and guys who are friendly and efficient. One time we had an issue with the hostess who made us wait to sit at the counter until those in front of us were waiting to be seated at tables. It has always been my experience that if you want to use the counter you may proceed ahead of those waiting for tables. That was the only time we were disappointed in the staff. The food, especially breakfasts, are great. Lunches are very good too, with a variety of choices and any special requests handled correctly. However, I cannot recommend the "French Dip" meal. The meat was very tough, pot roast I think, and it was stringy and fibrous. The taste was bland. That is the only time I was dissatisfied with their food. Plenty of other choices though, so not to worry, you will find something to your liking.

This used to be a nice restaurant but lately everything is off,not so good. Alot of people go there, just seems to me that ,they(chefs and managers) could do better for the customers.
Ok, feeling kind of bad for saying this, but, man, I am still in shock on how terrible the food was. However, our server LUCY was so great, it just auto corrected everything. I guess this is goodbye, Black Bear.
Our server was very sweet, she was extremely busy but still tried her best to get bk to us at a decent time. My daughter loved her chicken & waffles. I wasn't feeling my salmon dish with green bean…

I come here on rare occasion out of convenience. There are far better breakfast options than this place. Today I came in and was ignored. It was about 9:45am and not busy. There was a young lady ri…
Perhaps unfair to bother rating a chain restaurant, but this is mediocre food in an unappetizing (but very popular and busy) environment.
