Perfect spot for a home-cooked breakfast! The service was friendly and attentive, and the food was absolutely delicious. I’m usually an espresso person, but the coffee here paired perfectly with the French toast. We also had the bacon and the stuffed omelette — they definitely didn’t skimp on ingredients, everything was flavorful and satisfying. Highly recommend and will definitely be back!

Just a disappointment, after all the hype. Link sausage was the little sizzler type,hash browns were cooked well, no flavor ,eggs done pretty well. A lot of food for your money,though.
We were just traveling through Burlington going home to Missouri and found this restaurant. It was amazing food and service! Would definitely eat there again.

Tucked away in the heart of Burlington, Iowa, is a hidden gem “Hungry Bear”that serves up the perfect country breakfast. From the moment you walk in, the smell of sizzling bacon and fresh coffee welcomes you like an old friend. The cozy, no-frills atmosphere makes you feel right at home, with friendly staff who greet you with a warm smile and treat you like family.
A classic, hearty breakfast that hits all the right taste buds. From the fluffy and buttery biscuits, smothered in rich, homemade sausage gravy, eggs cooked just the way you like them, paired with crispy hash browns that have the perfect golden crunch, you’re bound to start your day off right.
Beyond the food, the service is small-town hospitality at its best. Refills on coffee come without asking, and the staff genuinely care about making sure you leave happy and full. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, Hungry Bear is the kind of place that makes you want to sit, savor, and stay a little longer.
If you’re looking for an authentic country breakfast that reminds you of home, Hunger Bear is your place.
It’s cash only, so bring your old style pocket book and enjoy your home cooked breakfast!
