Our servers Beth and Yara too were great and made it so enjoyable while we had our breakfast. Beth was always smiling and made every effort to make sure we were completely satisfied with our food and service. We always enjoy our meals at Black Bear Diner and I certainly hope we get Beth or Yara again in the near future.

Beth was an absolute gem of a server! We always host our staff meetings at Black Bear Diner, and she’s always been accommodating, patient, great communication and friendly face to see in the mornings! Highly recommend this Black Bear! Great food, service is always great, clean and quick!
