Black Bear Diners are quality fun places to have meals, especially for breakfast, lots of options, big portions and good food. We went on a busy Sunday but didn’t have to wait too long for a table. Service was good for it being so busy, not great. Food came quick and didn’t feeled rushed to order. All the food was good and you get way more than you pay for! Much better than a Dennys or ihop.

Went when they did the all you can eat fish fry and was not impressed. However, every other time we’ve gone the food has been good and portions more than enough. Polite staff.

I was in Redding, CA for a job interview, but have known that this Black Bear Diner is the ORIGINAL and have been wanting to come for years, so it was no thing at all to drive up the extra hour! The diner itself is cozy, traditional, but has plenty of seating and the service (and food) was excellent, especially since it was around the holidays (12/17) that I visited. My favorite things there are simple: Biscuits and Huckleberry Shake (in spite of the cold weather, haha)! On top of it all, you cant beat the views of Mt Shasta that are right outside the doors! Thank you Black Bear Diner OG, I will be back!

I LOVE this location! The Chicken Stack is my very favorite item on the menu! It is carnivore and keto friendly, and it is consistently delicious. It might sound strange, but once you try it you will become a true believer. This is carnivore/keto comfort food. The staff here is wonderful! The chefs are outstanding! I usually eat here in the evenings, and just cannot say enough good things about their outstanding Customer Service and delicious Chicken Stack! Please do t ever take it away, encourage people to try it- it is a winner! As a carnivore/keto person it is my go to!

I ordered the same thing today as yesterday. Club sandwich w/fries. Yesterday it was fantastic. Today, not so fantastic. Fries weren’t completely cooked and were dripping grease. They packaged the fries on top of sliced sandwich, for delivery, so the bread was soggy and greasy as well. Bacon was near raw.

Went to this location for dinner while we’re in town, we were seated promptly and asked for drinks. The host brought us drinks and told us our server would be over soon.
We needed a little time to check out the menu, our waitress came over and introduced herself to us. She was very friendly and polite. The restaurant wasn’t too full when we arrived but quite a few more tables were filled while we were there. The restaurant wasnt too loud, we could have a conversation. The restaurant was decorated in many bear themed items. They had a small gift shop near the register.
Some of the staff were kind of hanging around betting on who would order what etc. and werent paying attention to the chefs. The cooks had to have the host take items to the tables because of this.
Our server was pretty on top of things, got our food out quickly and got our order correctly and checked on us often. Drink refills were a bit behind but she had quite a few tables and it was understandable. Overall it was a decent meal for a decent price.

Very good food, but the services from waitress was ok, took to long refil the coffee and bring the check… 15min waiting…

The orange juice, is freshly squeezed! I love how they have their menu’s printed out to make it look like a newspaper with community news on the outside and the menu on the inside. It really was cute! The service was just right, not checking on us all the time but also not letting enough time go by that we think we’ve been forgotten. The food was pretty good. It wasn’t a “OMG, I’m definitely coming back” but it definitely wasn’t a “yeah, where’s my check?”. The atmosphere was just right. I went on a Tuesday morning and it wasn’t too busy but also wasn’t dead.

Black Bear Diner is by far the best breakfast restaurant in Redding, California. It feels like a little piece of old-school Americana that I hope always remains. I love Hannah!!!
My recommendation: two people should split one ScramBOWL (spelled just like that). Skip the ham and substitute extra crispy bacon—it’s absolutely heavenly.
The manager, Jim, is a kind and excellent gentleman. If you order on DoorDash and happen to be out of ketchup at home, he makes sure you get plenty. Austin, the young man who answered the phone, was polite, professional, and a class act as well. Both of them went above and beyond—Redding is lucky to have them.
Five stars across the board. And here’s a tip: if you order through DoorDash and spend $20 or more, you get $6 off. Delivered, it can actually cost less than dining in. What a deal!
