Why have I taken so long to eat at Black Bear? Idk, but whoever passes this place up over and over again for no reason needs a big ol' claw to the face. (Ok, not really.)
Came in on a Wednesday morning around 9:30 with no wait. Got seated, and all of a sudden the place was packed. I see why they have so many servers running around in those cute bear print suspenders. Everyone I encountered on this visit was nice and attentive.
Food is A-1 at a good price, especially in an age where places are charging a limb & a half for simple breakfast items. I ordered the Taco Salad with Chicken (yes, that early in the am). It was HUGE. Way more than enough for lunch and dinner, so I packed half away before I even got started. Fresh ingredients all around and great house-made bacon ranch dressing. Not bad at all for $10.95.
My companion got a huge pancake platter w/ all the fixins. I had a bite of her pancakes even without syrup and they were perfection. I will definitely be back here to try a lot more stuff on the menu.
