Food was great! My salad looked beautiful when it came out and tasted wonderful. Our waitress was nice. Only downside was when I checked out at the register. Cashier threw away my itemized receipt and when I asked for it, she didn't try hard to find it. read more

Black Bear Diner Amarillo - Buffalo chicken salad - extra spicy!! - Diners Near Me - Amarillo, Texas

It took more than 5 minutes for anyone to show up to seat us even though they weren't busy. My sandwich had a very over ripe alvacado along with burnt bread. My husband's biscuits and gravy plate had dry, crumbly buscuits and chewy bacon. Don't go! read more

We usually stop here on our way to New Mexico from Dallas. They have a huge menu and everything is usually pretty good. This time I had the Blackberry stuffed French Toast and it was wonderful. Highly recommend it. The service here is always great and the place is clean. Also, if you need gas this place is attached to a gas station. read more

I went to visit my daughter in Aurora Colorado n stop for breakfast the time wait was so long ,but over-all food n service excellent. Haven't tried Amarillo as I live here .I think a location on west of Amarillo would service for elderly people also. read more

We arrived at 7 am and by 7:50 our waitress had 8 tables and was checking people out. When my food arrived, a simple 2 egg plate, the food was cold and the fruit was over ripened. Plus the coffee tasted like it was water with flavoring. A huge thank you to the waitstaff and kitchen for trying when they were obviously set up poorly. read more

We decided to stop at a diner on Route 66. This place had humongous portions and wonderful food. We had pancakes, bacon, grits, hash browns, eggs and LOVED it all. The decor is fun with a "bear" theme and the waitress was extremely professional and d fast! This is a great spot to get a warm and filling meal that makes you feel like you were at your grandma's because it's just that yummy! read more

Shittiest gas station on earth. I've never seen such an ignorant rude employee as the one working on 2/10/26 at 11 pm. She could not care less about answering questions. When I asked her about an FM transmitter I was looking for, she just screamed at me that she didn't know what they had. Then she acted like it was super inconvenient for her to do her job and ring up the things I only purchased out of necessity. I will never darken the door of a TA travel stop again! read more

Without a doubt the best place in Amarillo for breakfast, as long as Brittany is your waitress

Great food. Great service. Great location We stayed at the best Western nearby. We ordered dinner to go. We also ordered lunch to go to take with us to palo duro st park. They had everything we needed and preferred it over the other local Options. read more

Even though we arrived a half hour before they closed (we were traveling), the staff was very gracious with quick service and delicious food. read more

The food was excellent. Too many low rating restaurants around town so I had to try this one. Definitely was worth it for the huge portion burgers. Manuel was a great server. He was everywhere! read more

Black Bear Diner Amarillo - Diners Near Me - Amarillo, Texas

Passed through Amarillo during a recent road trip. I'll admit I was out of my element, but Black Bear Diner was a name I recognized so I went for it. I didn't actually dine in and just ordered takeout, but the quality of the food and the service was great! I was a little bummed they didn't have my favorite chicken & waffles that day, but what I got instead was still pretty good. I'd probably try them again if I were in the same area. read more

Waited 10-15 minutes so be seated. Was not busy at all, then another customer came up to the counter waiting to pay their tab after I was waiting to be seated before I lost my patience and walked off. Was really craving a nice breakfast this morning as I'm a trucker so it's hard to come by something other than the regular fast food joints. read more

Food was good and hot. Service was horrible. We (2 of us) were sat in a corner booth, the waitress acknowledged others that were seated after us. She definitely wasn't observant. Finally brought us our drinks and said she'd come back for our order. Again, took a long time. Wasted about 1 1/2 hrs there. We love Black Bear Diner just not sure we'll we back to this location. We were driving from Okla. to NM and the diner was right off I-40 very convenient location for people driving thru town. read more

This restaurant never disappoints. The service and food are always great. We have only had breakfast there, so I can't say anything about it for later in the day. read more

Great food and they give you huge portions. Two people can easily share 1 plate if they wanted..

The service is terrible. We waited over an hour, no food. People next to us left before us and got there later. Too bad. Very cold also. That was our 3rd time there. We have left 2 of them. Never again. read more

Breakfast is amazing at this place! You walk in and it literally feels like your in Ruidoso or Pagosa Springs. The restaurant is super cute and the service is even better. Everything we had was delicious. read more

Service here is amazing Aly & Mia were amazingly attentive and kind, some of the friendliest service we've ever received. I wish I had gotten the host's name as well because he was just as great, the second he seated us he figured it was our first time there and took the time to explain the menu to us, and was very pleasant as well. Mia constantly made sure all of her tables were doing good even with her multitasking she still kept everyone taken care of with a smile, and is very patient even if you have no idea what you're ordering :). Aly wasn't even originally our server but she still came by to check on us and always cleared the plates way faster than you would expect anywhere else and even kept up conversation with us and the other tables, her vibrant energy lit up the room and made the already great experience even better. The food came out super fast and was SO GOOD. My husband and I came here for the first time ever expecting just a standard diner experience but this place is truly top notch and they clearly have a strong team manning the floor. We can't wait to come back the next time we stop by. Thank you guys! read more

Black Bear Diner Amarillo - Classic Benedict & Tri-Tip Dip - Diners Near Me - Amarillo, Texas

Destiny, is amazing and very attentive! Food and service was great! For the price you pay you get a bear portion.

Depending which one .. I stop at the one in Kingman Az. Off Beal Blvd .. always good .. We have one in La Habra Ca. But don't eat there .. reason is too many Restaurants to pick on .. I eat foods that I can't get in Amarillo TX. Real seafood & Mexican.. Pastrami's sandwich.. taquitos also .. read more

I have the steak, great quality meat and all the sides were great too. I ordered to pick up since I was passing by Amarillo and the ladies made very easy to order, great customer service. read more

Big mistake! We were in Texas and wanted steak. Big Bear sounded like it could deliver. It's a chain restaurant at a truck stop! No steak on the menu. Got burgers instead. Whoever decided that mayonnaise should go on a hamburger should be locked in a room with 30 screaming toddlers for a week! One of the worst burgers I've ever had. read more

The food is really really good whoever says that breakfast is only for the morning is insane I went at night because I wanted to try Black Bear diner and their food is really good the wait staff is super nice pretty cozy atmosphere also before I went on my Merry way I spent a questionable amount of money on candy at the TA store that is attached there's also two other restaurants I don't remember read more

Always a good place to eat and the service is always top notch; a nod to Ms. Destiny. read more

I absolutely love the Bears! The food is really good overall. I prefer the breakfast and the Turkey lunch, but I tend to go for the club sandwich and split it with a friend. FYI the cream pies and apple pies are to die for. read more

Black Bear Diner Amarillo - Black Bear Diner Chocolate Cream Pie! - Diners Near Me - Amarillo, Texas

I went to a Black Bear Diner in Phoenix...food was so bad said I'd never go back....we'll, I needed to find a breakfast spot near the airport cause Rick Husband Airport food choices are bare minimum...Saw Black Bear, knew I hadn't been to one in years so figured I'd give it a try. Host was nice, brought coffee and water right away...Waiter was really nice...all downhill from there. It took over 15 minutes to get my breakfast. Then let's discuss the food. I ordered the hash and eggs with grits. The hash had the flavor and consistency of shredded beef jerky and the potatoes were barely warmed up let alone cooked...I ordered over medium eggs, they were fried to a crisp...the cold toast was slathered in butter and the grits were a solid clump. Definitely my last foray into one of these ever again. read more

Got stuck in Amarillo and was excited to try this place. Put in an order and they called and said they had no cobbler but happy to make it for us. When we got there they said they wouldn't make it. They couldn't figure out how to issue a refund and 3 of our 4 items were wrong. The next day my friend went to pick up a slice of cobbler when they opened and they were also out? We decided to order a day later because we wanted avocado toast. They called and told me they had no avocados? I asked if I could cancel and the person said I had to call the store. I called the store and the phone said it was not in service and unavailable. I called the gas station attached and they put me through and the restaurant, who said they didn't have the ability to refund me and I had to figure out how to do it online. Anyways, big hassle. Not sure how they were out of things every single time I went to order read more

We love this place. Yes, it is in a truck stop, which means it's probably open when everyone else isn't. The portions are huge and everything that we have ordered has been great. Benedicts, pancakes, enormous biscuits and gravy, grits, really every traditional stick to your bones kind of breakfast you can think of. Service has also been amazing on every visit. We take family here from out of town and everyone is shocked at how good it is after we pull up to a truck stop. As for ambiance, did I mention it's in a truck stop? JK. Actually, they have a little lodge type thing going and it works. Give it a shot, you won't be sorry. read more

Wow, I cannot say enough about this place. By far the best diner I have ever eaten at. Everything from our waitress Britney to the quality of the food and portion sizes. Was absolutely incredible! This is going to be our go to place and I have to drive past several diners just to get here. I would highly recommend and I would give you 10 stars if I could. Thank you for a wonderful experience. read more

They do offer little less on the menu for those hungry but not too hungry. Thank you Denise for the wonderful service and to those back of the house for an awesome service and excellent food. read more

The last time I have been to BBD was when it was here in Westminster Colorado. So we decided to drop by before heading out to go home. It's not quite as I remember. The portion sizes was HUGE for one, I didn't remember that at all. The staff definitely friendly for sure, the prices were on a high side. Which I don't remember that, but then again, inflation. The chipotle sauce I used was amazing, which I personally wish they would bring it to retail stores. That could be a huge money maker there for them. I had the ham and cheese omelette. The ham was on the salty side and the biscuit that came with it was massive. The biscuit alone could be a meal itself!! But dang it was so good and moist, I also made it into a sandwich with my omelette. And I still had to get a doggie bag. But I would definitely stop by again if I'm in this part of the woods. I think Colorado had 1 left. What a shame. read more

The food and service has gone downhill since it opened. I walked in today, Saturday, July 8, 2023, the place is filthy and no one came to wait on me after the hostess sat me at my table - I won't be back. I'm sure it'll be closed before long. No stars in my opinion. read more

Black Bear Diner is one of my faves! Shay at BBD in Amarillo TX is amazing! Being a truck driver, there are times that we can't take our time and hang out. Weather and accidents sometimes sets us back. Today is one of those days for me. Shay quickly acknowledged me when I walked in (that's a huge plus for me) and took my order. I don't like being ignored when I'm about to spend my hard earned money. Shay was very helpful with the menu. I got what I wanted and then some. She's great at upselling. Total professional and very kind! Great job Shay!!! Keep up the great work! You're top notch!!! Have a great day!!! read more

The ambiance was very cute. The service and server was good. Now for the food. The food was good but why charge more for sausage patties over what would be charged for sausage links and why are you charging for coffee? It should come with breakfast or any meal free. Guess it goes back to greed. read more
