Black Bear Diner Reviews
Another good experience at the Black Bear Diner. We had breakfast and got an pancakes and waffles. Portions were huge! our server was friendly, patient, and we really appreciated the way she kept checking with us to see if everything was fine. Highly recommend!
I’ve driven past the Black Bear Diner in Gilroy probably a dozen times and always thought, “One of these days I’ve gotta try that place.” Finally had a couple hours to kill today, so I popped in to grab some food, knock out a little work, and see what all the hype is about.
Man, I’m glad I did!
First thing that made me smile was the menu — it’s printed like an old-school newspaper! Super cute and actually fun to flip through....read full review
My only complaint is their booth need to be a little bigger we barely fit in. They should have more tables with chairs
