I went in on Sunday May 31st. everything that evening, was a little off. I wasn't pleased. So I let the managers know that there team had fallen short. Of the Bears credos and Standards. This week the whole staff was working as a team producing quality food and a welcoming, atmosphere. for people to enjoy. Awesome JOB Lakewood Black Bear Team.

Very cute but you have to love bears because they are everywhere lol. Great people, good breakfast food ( that's all I've tried so far). Reasonable prices and too many souvenirs to choose from.

Black bear is always fabulous! Whether it's breakfast, lunch, or dinner, you will always have a great meal with super portions and reasonable prices for what you get. They offer children's menus and smaller portions menus for lighter appetites. I have never had a bad meal at a Black Bear Diner and I've been to several from Washington state to Texas.
