Bear Diner

Disappointing Experience – Won’t Be Back We pulled up to Bear Diner in Bear, DE and my first thought was yikes. My wife tried to be optimistic, saying “you pay for ambiance, maybe the food will be good.” I don’t mind paying for ambiance, but this place didn’t look promising. Inside, we were seated quickly in a booth. The restaurant looked clean, but old, and the booth seat had a spring poking into me. Our server Stephanie came over and took our coffee order. Before the coffee even arrived, another waitress, Wendy, came by, played with our small dog, and asked if we were ready to order. We told her Stephanie had already taken it. Without a word, Wendy spun on her heels and walked away. The interaction felt awkward and unprofessional. The coffee was not good. I ordered chicken and waffles

Breakfast is good. Prices are good. The place could use an uplift. Needs Brighter lighting & color. Its kinds dark & dingy looking inside.

Favorite spot for breakfast. I always come here and order the waffle sometimes with scrapple. I've also tried their pancakes and eggs Benedict also delicious. The service is always great and quick. Staff is always friendly and makes sure everything is okay and good for us. Been to this location multiple times with friends and family and never have had a problem or issues and will come back for more

Husband and I ordered eggplant parm dinner with linguine and soup for take out. Linguine was very overcooked and mushy. Pasta sauce tasted like straight tomato paste and chunks of canned tomatoes. No Italian seasonings. Eggplant was two stacks of three slices with that same horrible sauce on top and mozzarella cheese. It tasted like freezer burned, pre-cooked eggplant. Soup tasted like it had a splash of something sour in it. The only good thing about this meal was the bread and crackers. Such a disappointment for a father's day meal to share with my husband after a long day of work.

I love coming here by myself or with friends or family. It feels like home. The food is great, cooked the way you want it. Ashley was my server she is super friendly and makes you feel like she's known you forever.
