Reviews for Black Bear Diner Porterville in Porterville, CA

There was a time where they gave you too much food for the price you paid. Not the tables have turned, it seems they give you... less and charge you more. As far as the quality of the food, truthfully it's just okay. It's better than Denny's but not bymuch. Read more

Quality basic American food but we'll prepared. Portions were too large, honestly. No way I could finish my sandwich, just too... big. But everything was well done with care. Read more

Worst experience ever. It took over 45min to get our food. We were a large group (10) but two tables sat after us, ordered, ate,... and left before we even got our food. The waitress never came by to refill drinks. She also got orders wrong and when we askedfor the correction, she was rude about it. Not to mention the plates came with eggs and biscuit plus a choice. She kept tellingus it's one or the other and so we never got our biscuits. At one point she said she go check on our food and 5min later we hadto go find her and the food was ready and waiting, she was just standing there. The food itself was good for majority of thetable, which is why two stars instead of one. Hoping this is a one off for this restaurant but will never come back to thislocation. Read more

Food is delicious, customer service is hospitable, ambiance is relaxed, clean and welcoming experience! My kids love the food... and portion for a bear- size appetite! Price is just right for quality food. An overall happy experience, will definitely comeback again! Read more

Friendly staff, good food. They did not have any Grandma's Famous Cobbler, so I left disappointed. It's one of my favorite... things to get when I visit a Black Bear Diner. Read more

This is a great place to eat. The food is delicious and very large portions. The service is great and friendly. Lots of... different dishes to choose from and breakfast anytime. Very kid friendly they provide booster seats and crayons to color with.There is a very large parking lot and would be easy for someone in a wheelchair it get into the restaurant. Ordering the breadpudding with icecream is a must. It is the best I have ever eaten other than what my husband makes at home. Read more

Very good American food ???? I recommend the veggie omelette I'm not a vegetarian so I ordered a hot link on the side but that... omelette is so good. Their chicken fried steak and fried chicken is also pretty darn good and I would definitely recommend thebear claw with coffee I haven't tried the blackberry filled but the almond filled warm with butter and syrup to dunk it in isvery good.

Visited this dinner early morning on our way to Sequoia National park. Ordered Joe's Hobo Omelette and Shasta scramble with... Toast and red potato house fries on the side. Both were quite good. Their coffee is really good too compared to other dinners wehave been to. Read more
