The Black Bear Tavern

Great food and service. Super friendly atmosphere. My 10 year old daughter is a super picky eater. Nearly cleaned her plate and declared that they were the best pancakes she’d ever eaten. This was our 2nd trip to this restaurant, once with just my husband and today with our three kids. Both times were great experiences. We highly recommend!

We arrived at black bear tavern with a party of ten and the staff refused to seat all of us together. They logic why was baffling and made no sense. There was a section that could accommodate 12 additinal people but they refused to allow us to put tables together. I asked the staff that if that section were to fill how many waiters would work the section. The answer was one. I inquired, what is the difference between separate tables with 10 people verses 1 table. They simply told me that is the way it is. Another one of the staff then got snippy with us and asked twice "do you want a table" regardless of the actual questions we were asking. They refused to take our business. They willingly refused easily and $100 bill plus tip. Makes no sense. We took our business to honest meats foothills resturant that easily accommodated all of us. I would recommend not visiting black bear tavern if you have a large party.

Great comfort food in a beautiful setting. Odd hours so check before going.

Nice atmosphere w/ fireplace. Service great. Menu limited but decent. Fries great. Chili excellent. Burger decent. A bit small and bun too big. Portions small. Quality good.

The steak sub and tater tots were very good. My friend enjoyed the blue burger and slaw. The staff was friendly; the service was excellent. A good, pleasant and comfortable place for an enjoyable lunch while visiting with a friend.

The staff here was the best service I've had in a good long while. If you're ever in the area this is a stop you have to make. On top of everything, the food was incredible and delectable!

Sunday breakfast was great. Sausage gravy biscuits were delicious. Staff was very attentive. The outdoor patio dining is fantastic. Very pet friendly. My dog felt like she was the center of attention.

Refused to seat a party of ten even though they had ample room. They said the waitress would be overwhelmed. Never saw such a bad business decision in my life. Will never go back. How do you refuse business because you don’t want to accommodate a family on vacation!! Dumb- founded. They had three tables with customers ... the rest of the place was empty!! This is pure craziness!!! Wow after reading several other reviews this sounds like a common practice.. refusing to accommodate paying customers and over all rudeness!! Wish I could give a negative star rating

Great food and even nicer folks had a great time.

Stopped by this place for lunch while in town on business. Really glad I did! Service was extremely fast and food way above what I expecting. Hope to bring my wife next time!

Awesome staff, family atmosphere, my breakfast was great! Will definitely go back! Thank you for making me feel welcome 😊

What a beautiful and quaint establishment. Breakfast was delicious!

Great breakfest! Exciting eggs and the biscuits were soft and buttery! The only problem was the table next to us, obsessively chastising the waiters about how they didn't get to sit where they wanted to on a busy Sunday along with the fact that they have some sort of pepper allergy. Word of advice people, if you're that needy, just stay home! Service is excellent and will most defintely be coming back!

The biscuits 🍪 and gravy have the most flavor ever and the blueberry pancakes were so good you don't need syrup🥞

This is one of the best places I have ever eaten! I got the Creamy Shrimp Scampi and it was delicious. I definitely recommend! 5 star service. Lisa is the most personable server ever! I enjoyed her and her funny comments and side talk is hilarious. Give her a raise! :)
