What a hidden jewel! Discovered this diner just down the street from where we're staying and can't say enough how nice the staff were and the food was delicious ???? We both had the lite dinners (smaller portions) and they were perfect.
I had the scrumptious roast beef and veggies, with green beans and broccoli. My partner enjoyed the chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes and broccoli.
Ended up, we couldn't get out the door without a huge bowl of the coconut cream pie...should have started with that! Yummy ????
Enjoyed so much, came back for lunch and had a hot pastrami with broccoli cheese soup.
This was such a nice spot. Had a week to work in Oakland and ended up eating here twice. If you’re in Oakland, you know the risk parking anywhere, but I felt safer at Blackbear because they had security in the parking lot. The log cabin- diner atmosphere was unique and cute. I had the cheese grits one day and the eggs benedict the other. Both were delicious. The fresh squeezed orange juice was my favorite.
Whoever does quality control for these restaurants deserves a raise. Eaten at them all over California and have yet to have a meal that didn’t meet/exceeded expectations.
Service here was top notch. Be aware of the parking lot theft situation though. Very obvious that travelers flying out of the airport have their cars broken into frequently in the parking lot here. They even have a security guard out patrolling to prevent it but…..Oakland gonna Oakland…. If you know what I unfortunately mean.
Update: 7/25/23. Been flying out of KOAK a lot lately and stop here once or twice a week before getting in a plane. Wanted to give props to both Onealia and Jose who are beyond awesome. Good service is rarer than it should be today but these two will restore your faith in the craft. Ty for having me and keep on doing what you do! Cheers
Everything was great except for the prices. I was shocked when I saw the menu. If I were to compare the prices between the one in Napa & this one, you might be surprised at which one was much cheaper. But the service was great. I didn't have to wait long for anything. And my food was tasty too.
I went to Black Bear in Hegenberger in Oakland and I’m so happy to share my amazing experience even there were only two waiters, a girl and a man, it was very busy and they still did everything possible to make us feel comfortable, the food was delicious and it came to our table faster than we imagined; Our waitress recommended us to try new items that had been included in the menu only for the season and I really don't regret it, everything was very nice.
I love these restaurant chains. The decor is adorable. And the foods always good and plenty. Something for everyone. Good attentive service. Just fly in and was looking for a yummy breakfast close by and this was literally less than 10 minutes from the airport. Also a great spot to wait if your picking up someone from the airport. Oh and very good coffee ☕. Would return and recommend.
Cute place for some comfort food. Oscar was a great waiter and took good care of use. The menus are adorable, they look like a newspaper. I had the ribeye, it was good. The cornbread was huge and delicious! The green beans were very flavorful. The hubby had the meatloaf, it had something in it that he didn’t like ...couldn’t figure out what it was. The pie selection was nice. The decor of the restaurant is adorable. The portions are large. There was plenty of parking spaces and the restaurant was easy to find.
Cute and delicious. Love the bear theme and story. Portions are quite large so we wasted a lot of food (which I do not support). Great customer service. Close to the airport. Clean and safe.
