Black Bear Diner Milpitas

First time at this Black Bear Diner. I ordered the patty melt and fries. Both were delicious and fresh. My gf ordered the biscuits and gravy that were good. The staff was nice and friendly, always checking up on us and making sure our waters were full. The food filled us up that we didn’t have enough room for dessert, so will definitely be back for some pie in the near future.

This is by far the best blackbear diner I’ve ever been to. The host/ waitress Samantha was absolutely amazing! A very sweet, attentive young lady and quick too.. The food was absolutely perfect the portions are huge and definitely worth every penny. By far the best place to go to in Milpitas must go there if you haven’t. This place feels like home.

Big meals. Service was good this trip. Food was definitely smaller portioned Denver omelette. Hash browns excellent. Toast so so dryed out. This used to be the best value for your money, with this New menu prices, now not of value. $20 and 24.99 prices. No longer family friendly.

This is definitely a North California staple and a one of a kind diner worth visiting! It's basically a local version of Denny's with log cabin upper mid-west vibes. The bear decor and newspaper article style menu is simply delightful and quite refreshing for those with Adirondack and No-Cal experience with nature and the great outback. It was my first time here and came in by myself on a Saturday between 2-4pm. It was a great overall experience but I was greeted by a server who asked "May I help you?" Instead of asking if I was a party of one or just seating me which was weird, awkward and made me feel a little unwelcomed and the reason why this review gets 4 stars. However, I'm going to discount the fact that I was dressed in "relaxed" clothing ( I walked from my hotel room and decided to grab a bite while my room was getting cleaned) and the server was kinda young and may be a little new as the reason for that exchange. The appearance was neat and clean not too crowded. I was seen immediately and my food came out fast. The rest of the staff was busy yet nice and chill. The huckleberry lemonade is off the hook and the food I ordered was really good too! The rest of the menu was a bit pricey but had a lot of options as you can tell from my photos. If you see this place in passing and want that down home experience give this place a try!

and eggs. The food was cooked to perfection and our waiter was super friendly and attentive with us.

Super random note: They have so many photos of cats on the walls and we LOVED it so much! I think the cats belong to the owner and it's so cute seeing all the adorable pictures. There is also a lot of artwork done by locals which is nice for the business to show support for them.

Great business, friendly customer service, and tasty food. Definitely coming back again!
