We’re new to this area of town and we were doubtful that we’d ever find an old school breakfast diner like the one we frequented in our old neighborhood. We googled ‘breakfast diners in Seminole’ and were intrigued by the awesome reviews here… me more so by the comments on their old fashioned grits! This hole-in-the-wall diner is located in a strip mall and is very easy to overlook, if not for the completely full parking lot - a very good sign! We followed the crowd inside and have been going for breakfast ever since! They also serve lunch for people who aren’t looking for breakfast food.True to the reviews, their grits are unlike ANYTHING this Southerner has ever had! Less gritty than traditional grits, but whipped in texture and consistency, they are the best grits I’ve ever had! Melt in some butter and sprinkle with salt and you’ll be in grit heaven! There’s honey, sugar and syrup available for those who prefer their grits sweet.Our order: We always get the 2 Egg breakfast - with two eggs cooked any way, with your choice of breakfast meat and one of the following three options: grits, toast or hash browns. The hash browns are old school shredded and griddled in a heaping pile, so don’t miss those, either! We always order a side of hash browns to split. Sometimes, my husband orders the pancakes - the size of basically hubcaps lol. The coffee is hot, the service is awesome and we really love sitting in Bonnie’s section. Go for the grits and fall in love with everything else like we did! The little guy who clears the tables is a sweetheart and we look forward to seeing his big smile every time we go!*Thank you also for serving and recognizing our veterans! As a wife to a veteran, you’ve got fans for life with my family! Don’t forget to check out the breakfast specials located on the napkin dispensers on each table! Bring cash to avoid the new 3% surcharge they tack in to credit card payments. They offer catering as well!Vegetarian options: By omitting meat from salads and breakfast plates, you can easily eat a vegetarian meal here.Dietary restrictions: They offer multiple items like salads, vegetables and fresh fruits for vegetarians and vegans.Parking: Many of the surrounding businesses have designated parking spot signs, but the traffic in and out means that you won’t wait too longKid-friendliness: Lots of kids here! The restaurant is small and tends to be on the louder side, so kids would barely be noticed.Wheelchair accessibility: Located on the ground level, this establishment has wheelchair accessible parking and easy access inside.

Beary GoodGolden Bear has been around for many years and they have a lot down pat. The place is usually busy and the staff is efficient. The coffee is good and the eggs are, well, eggs. The French toast is pretty good. The downfalls are the grits and ham. The grits are a little more flavorful than most similar restaurants, but the texture is soupy. Grits should be drier and slightly crunchy. The ham is flavorful but has a spongy texture. Prices are OK. I still can’t find a breakfast place in central Pinellas that gets everything right.
We love Golden Bear! The breakfast food is amazing... Always delicous and served with a smile!!
