The black bar is your classic local untouched by time, and a clean rag. Went for breakfast (1130ish, not busy) based on friends recommendation, and got some coffee, OJ, 2 caesars, and 2 eggs benedict. Listen, this is the best hollandaise sauce I've ever tasted in my life. Legit. Eggs were poached med, with ample peameal bacon, all topped on soft toasted english muffins. The home fries were a bit of a mix of sub cooked and well cooked potatoes (not their fault, most diners are like this right?), my wife got fries instead (which is the move), the coffee was decent, and the Caesars were made with horseradish (not a lot of bars carry horseradish, WHY?!). All in b4 tip $53, that's pretty good! Will definitely be coming back to try new things and will update then. Update: the service and food wasn't even close second time around. Service was terrible, and food was cold, and the salmon was off on the Benny. Ordered take out a few weeks later, also not good. Must've gotten lucky our first time cuz it's been terrible since. Will not be returning. It's noting they play live music some nights.

5 Stars Spent Mother’s Day at the Black Bear Pub and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the staff went out of their way to make it special. The food was absolutely delicious fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. It was the perfect place to relax and celebrate. Thank you for making the day memorable. Highly recommend!

Host drummer totally controls the evening to his advantage. If yr 'late' they wont let you up even if the music contnues for another hour or more. Buyer beware!

Great food, great portions, reasonable prices. This place is good for short pauses to grab a snack and a brew in between errands or to settle in on karaoke nights Mondays and Fridays. They serve a solid breakfast and their Chicago Dark (amber) is a must try.

5 stars because it’s what you expect. Maybe a bit better. Good omelettes. Chicken fingers and fries for the kids. Ok coffee. Locals. Nice people. Soup looked great.

Have gotten breakfast here many times. They were open Xmas day. That's commitment, a small establishment with good food with very reasonable prices.
Will continue to use.

I know they open very early for the amazing breakfast menu, but my only disappointment is that the kitchen closes too soon at night. Maybe they should announce last call for food like they do for alcohol as 1030pm seems very early when people need to absorb the drinks while enjoying the amazing LIVE local talent on Saturday nights. 10/10 for Mark, Reno & the Chefs :)

The food was great and well priced, although I did find it mildly frustrating that there was no drink menu.
