So on a whim, because I still am vigilant about chicken fried steak, I popped into black bear recently... this time, afternoon and on a regular weekday, with not a lot of expectation but was in the area, and had a whole different experience. I ordered my same order as before and had a completely different type of time. A big cfs, brown gravy, fries and yes I know that's bad for me--childhood nostalgia, I'm a diner type of gal from time to time. The service was great. Felt like a regular with some of the casual small talk with the ladies who work there. The manager was on his way out for the day, but saw him interacting with the crew and you can just tell, these folks like working together. I got to meet him, Alex, was a cool guy with an ever cooler take on what I should order next time. It's a lot of food! A lot a lot. I have this thing where I look around to see what everyone else is having and what I could've ordered. I left there with big leftovers and that big feeling of when your gut and heart are full. It was a diner kinda day. Exactly what I ordered. read more

Food: I ordered the pancakes with two eggs w/cheddar cheese and 2 slices of bacon. It was ok and did what it needed to do in that moment but left more to be desired. Service: It was a Monday and I waited for 5-6 minutes to be seated because they only had one waiter for a semi full room of people. When I was seated I ordered to go and used the restroom. The restroom was really clean and a plus. The food came out pretty fast too. The vibe in there is an older crowd and they all seemed retired and just enjoying someone else cooking for them. lol The meal was $12 so that's reasonable! read more

Online order for delivery: I live in another state and wanted to have something delivered for family for Thanksgiving. Found this place on my food delivery apps. The price was perfect. I loved that it was several items including a dessert. Food was delivered fast. My brother said it smelled good when it arrived and also tasted good. Portion size was great, they were able to eat for lunch and dinner. read more

Black Bear Diner Humble - Holiday Turkey Dinner - Diners Near Me - Humble, Texas

Came here early around 6am, right when store opened. Still quiet, less crowded. Food came out at a reasonable time and hot with plenty of condiments. Felt as if waitress was rushing us to place our order starting with drinks first, and then ordering food to go from table to table. She was the only one serving 5 tables around that early. But Omlette seems to had some kinda of white shredded cheese inside. Didn't seem it was enough on inside at all, but more meat than cheese. More light than heavy. Pancake was buttered and sweet, best thing on my plate. Potatoes were dry, not moist. My party also said if it wasn't for gravy on her biscuits her biscuits were dry in most areas. This visit was deserving a 2 stars, cause it was a hit or miss overall. Probably wait some months before going back again. read more

Have visited on four different occasions and on everyone it's been a very helacious wait with no assistance (event after being understanding and consulting with management). It has the proper setting to be a nice homestyle breakfast/brunch type of vibe. But first I'd say make sure that your staff is being attentive to patrons that are entering, make sure servers frequent the table to check to ensure everything is okay, refills,etc and make sure that communication is clear between foh and BOH because on three of those occasions we had multiple orders that were wrong and one not even brought out to our guest that we were treating. I'd love to say I'd try again but that's going to have to be a miracle there! I wish them the best and hope everything improves and works out . read more

Service was great and the food portions were quite big, at a great price. This was my first time there and it won't be my last.

Worst service ever waitress with an attitude, bring his personal problems to work came here for the first time and was treated with so much rudeness read more

Best place for the area - it's really hard to find restaurants by the airport. The area was just kinda sketchy. It made me feel better that this was a chain. Service was very fast though and the waitstaff were nice! Food was standard breakfast food and what you would expect for options (French toast, pancakes, etc.) read more

Didn't find the original spot we wanted to go to so we drove passed this place and decided to come and try it out!! At first nobody was at the front, I guess they have one person seating people and at register too.. but as soon as he saw us he was quick to sit us down. The menu can be better with pics so we get an idea how it looks!! We asked for the bacon cheddar hamburger, western bbq hamburger, turkey sandwich, and side of onion rings!!! The size portion and flavor was on point, very good hamburger meat..super juicy! They do ask how you want your meat cooked, and that's pretty good. The only issue was I don't know what type of cheddar cheese that it didn't keep melting when burger was still warm. You might want to shop around for a better cheese, other than that everything was delicious The strawberry milk shake was good too!! My son loved it!! Ice cream in your shake?? You can't go wrong Service was good and we will be back for sure!!! read more

Just has disgusted vibes. I didn't want to eat my food known they allow their employees to eat in the kitchen around the food they are serving. People have no respect and don't have a care in the world when it comes to good customer service. They need to hold people like this accountable to what they signed up for when they took the food handlers test. Honestly it grossed me out I didn't even get to enjoy my meal. Besides my food being cold. read more

We had lunch at Black Bear Diner. It was my 2nd time at this name of restaurant. My husband's first time. My first time at this location. Menu is on newsprint. Interesting. Ordered. Our server, Gregory. Excellent. Excellent service. We very much enjoyed our dining experience. The restaurant. Much to look at. Good crowd but not awful. Not too crowded. Husband had meatloaf. He liked. He loved the green beans. Funny our server could anticipate just what my husband would favor with his meatloaf. It was very fitting. My husband was very pleased with his meal. Meatloaf, mashed potatoes, green beans. I had chicken and waffles. Good chicken. Yummy waffles. Right hint of vanilla. Butter. Syrup. Side of mixed fruit. We cleaned our plates. Highly recommend. We can't wait to visit again. Husband visited again. Today. Lunch with his mother. Interestingly, again his server Gregory. Just awesomeness again. Thank you. read more

Josie is very great I will ask for her when I come back Ty ty for the great service. Such a great place

Bear's benedict - California bacon. It came with thick-cut smoked bacon, avocado, spinach and grilled tomato slices, with a side of strip-cut hash browns. We also ordered the Bear's choice - 2 thick-cut smoked bacon, 2 sweet cream pancakes & scrambled eggs with a side of spicy sausage patties. The food was standard and the service was meh. I was set on ordering Grandma's famous cobbler for dessert, but the waiter nonchalantly dropped the bill on the table without saying a word. It turns out we pay at the front (near the hostess stand), and can order desserts there. We were first timers, and it would've been nice to have a heads up, instead of having to find the info on our own. My husband paid the bill, so I looked over the itemized bill after we had already left. We were charged for a "soft drink" ($2.99), although the only drink we ordered was 1 coffee ($3.49). The waiter did ask if I wanted lemon for my water, so the "soft drink" charge could be a charge for the lemon. If I knew there was an extra charge or that it would cost that much, I would've said no. read more

We waited 15 minutes before they took order, sweet cleaning lady helped us get our waitress. I ordered sausage gravy with biscuits, horrible heavy and tasteless biscuits with floury tasteless gravy. Truly the worst I have ever had. Other breakfast was pancakes and eggs, these were okay yet mediocre and not worth the cost. We were very disappointed in service and breakfast. read more

By far one of the worst experiences, I've ever had just trying to get a table. I was told 15 to 20 minutes when I arrived, which then turned into 40 minutes which then turned into over an hour. Got a notification they were ready to seat us just to be told that they had no tables available, just to keep on waiting. To top it all off the people in the front are absolutely rude. The customer service sucked. I've been to a lot of blackbear diners, but this one isn't it. read more

Our three year old son slipped and almost busted his face in the wet foyer. I understand that some water is unavoidable, but after alerting the front staff that this happened they said "I'll take care of it" and after 5 minutes I had to ask to see the manager when his response was "There's nothing we can do". My response was, "well I'd hate for somebody to slip and really get hurt". No attention to the crying baby asking how he's ok, only after talking to the manager did they attempt to mop the floor with a wet mop and leave a sign sideways. read more

First things first, as a Jersey girl this is not a typical diner. Came in for an early dinner with my husband and we were seated immediately. The menu was super overwhelming for a girly like me who LOVES food, but I made it a point to only look at the dinner options. My husband had the chicken bacon ranch wrap with fries which he enjoyed very much. I ordered a house salad and the pesto pasta with grilled chicken which tasted great although it was missing the tomatoes that it was supposed to have. The garlic bread and cornbread were top notch! The service was just ok. My husband asked for ranch for his fries and the server placed it on the table beside us. I also had to ask for a to go container 3 times before getting one. Overall it's a pretty nice place with good food and a relaxing vibe. We've already discussed giving it another shot soon. read more

I can't be the only one who has been anxious to try this new restaurant that has been seemingly popping up all over the city. The ambiance was very laid back and it wasn't crowded for a Sunday after church. I finally made my way in and unfortunately did not enjoy my experience. I mean, it wasn't completely terrible, I just expected more. We were seated rapidly. It is very much diner style. It's quaint. Our server made some recommendations and we ended up having the 2 egg breakfast with their sweet cream pancakes, tri dip and chicken meal, and 3 kids meals (Alfredo, 2 pizzas) the kids enjoyed their meals. The tri dip was dry and had an unusual flavor (our first time trying it so it may have been normal) The pancakes were pretty good. Sweet, slightly dense. The link sausage was a much better quality of meat than I'm used to from some other breakfast spots. Everything came out lukewarm and we waited a really long time for our food. Had to ask for refills on more than one occasion and they weren't busy, so idk. All in all, didn't seem like a bad place. Worth one shot, but not looking forward to returning. read more
