Everything was so good. - A breakfast scene featuring a wooden table with a white plate holding a partially eaten pie with crust and filling, a bowl with remnants of a meal and sauce, and various drinks including a tall blue water glass, a black mug, and a white cup with a saucer. There are utensils, napkins, and small condiment containers scattered around, with chairs and a stone wall visible in the background.

Had I known I would love the food, would have taken before pics.The gobbler sandwich. The Tomato bacon soup . Chili & grill cheeseBacon, egg and cheese sandwich on ciabatta bread was so good. Will come again.

Great atmosphere! - A dining area features wood-paneled walls and a window with a plaid valance decorated with bear silhouettes. A green stove is mounted on the wall, and a small potted plant is on top of it. The wooden table has several cups, glasses, a juice box, and some crumpled napkins. Four wooden chairs with maroon cushions surround the table, and the scene is lit by natural light from the window, revealing a grassy outdoor area with a red vehicle in the background.

Outstanding! Passing through on the way to Vermont. Used Yelp to pick a breakfast spot. Luckily, the first place I picked was closed, even though their Yelp page said the were open. Hungry Bear was actually my second choice, but I'm glad it's where I ended up. It was an absolutely perfect breakfast! So many great choices on the easy to read menu. And coffee is included in your breakfast choice! Haven't seen that in years! The staff was super friendly, and very helpful. If I ever passing through this way again, I know where I'll be stopping for breakfast!

This was a welcomed late-breakfast stop in Plattsburgh NY. Busy and a Spacious dinning environment brought us a really nice break from our drive with excellent service and a kitchen that knows how to make a memorable meal. Great coffee delicious food. What more are you looking for . We were very very happy to have found the Hungry Bear.

You can find this place in Plattsburgh a bit out of the way - so glad we trusted the reviews and had lunch here. The service was like you don't get these days - even though we were not a local, they treat everyone as if they have known you for years. Get this - the food was so good. I had breakfast (serve all day) and my husband had lunch. We left feeling very satisfied to get back o the road to head south, wish we could visit more often.

Chicken and waffles is two huge pieces of chicken, potatoes with onions on a waffle smothered with sausage gravy. - A breakfast meal with fried chicken and waffles topped with a creamy gravy and black pepper, served alongside diced potatoes with onions. The dish is presented on a white oval plate on a wooden table, with a knife inserted into the food. In the background, there are glasses of syrup and condiments, a mug, and a pair of glasses.

I've discovered chicken and waffles and this is the best place so far. Two whole pieces of chicken wrapped in a belgian waffle and smothered in sausage gravy. Ask for the sausage gravy separately if you don't like it on the waffle.

Outside of restaurant

The service was great and our server was very friendly. Definitely a place with a lot of regulars who go there a lot. Which gives the ambiance of a home. Apart from the service, I got the pancakes with bacon and eggs and it was probably the best pancakes I've had. Definitely give this place a try.

We just wanted to get 2 bagels with cream cheese. Getting them here was a mistake. We should've…read moregone to she supermarket to get bagels & cream cheese separately. It would've been quicker, used less plastic & we would've gotten more bagels. Now that we know that less 7 % of plastic has been recycled & it's toxic. We should stop using it to wrap everything. at has been recycled & is especially toxic. The food & service may be good if you're eating in but it's very disappointing to me that businesses have no regard for the materials they use and the environmental impact.

Time / Date 12:13pm…read more 5-1-2024 MY ORDER: 3 STACKS OF PANCAKES, 3 scrambled eggs(with tomatoes), 2 sausages and 2 bacon. BEVERAGE : coffee with half/half When you search the definition of a restaurant it is described as "a place where people pay to sit and eat meals that are cooked and served on the premises." The definition for customer service is "the assistance and advice provided by a company to those people who buy or use its products or services."..... 5 hours....5 long hours I traveled to the city of Plattsburgh; to embark on another mission which I completed.....But not only did the 5 hour solo car karaoke fest LINKIN PARK helped me complete this mission.. "MICHIGAN PLUS" gave me the energy (THE FUEL) I needed to successfully complete what NEEDED TO BE DONE on this mission... The minute you walk into this fine restaurant you're immediately greeted with the fresh aroma coming from the grill. The chefs, grill masters channeling their energy creating dish after dish after dish. BREAKFAST, LUNCH and DINNER! This fine establishment serves it all!! Even though they're open 7 days a week from 7am till 3pm. I must say my first time in Plattsburgh, first time at Michigans Plus...being recommended this place by a staff at the nearby Hampton Inn... I knew immediately this fine restaurant never ever "missed a step", "skipped a beat". The staff especially my waitress and the OWNER (whom I met)....SO DAMN PROFESSIONAL AND FRIENDLY! EVERYONE TREATED ME with respect and just overall a great customer service. My food....my MEAL.....HOT DAMN!!! Now I know I had a large plate of breakfast. But I needed to prepare for this battle I was going to be in. This mission is important to me for my life and the level I NEED TO ASCEND TO. My pancakes were fully cooked individually filled with FLAVOR, my eggs were SCRAMBLED....SCRAMBLED(with tomatoes). My sausages and bacon all tasted fresh! Everything was fresh.... Quick side note (if only they had other milk options) but overall!!!!!! I am thankful for and happy(plus FULL) all because of the heart of Plattsburgh, NY....Michigans Plus Please support the locals!!!! PS: The mission was an exam.
