First hot meal in 4.5 weeks for this trucker and it did not disappoint one bit! Pretty large portions, clean and friendly. Staff was extremely nice. I didn’t even have time to finish reading the placemat before my food was brought out to me. I ordered “The Grizz” without pancakes and a hot coffee. Total was $23.

First off, just wow. The food was completely delicious and the service was awesome. From front desk to the table, Lilly was awesome and sweet. She sat me at the table and informed me the newspaper thing in front if me was the menu and I loved that concept. She told me my waitress would be over shortly and I thank her and she left. I was browsing the menu and a couple minutes go by and ny server (Kaycee I believe?) answered my questions about a dish and took my order with two sides. I had the chicken stack with a side of Sweet potato fries and a side of onion rings. The two sides came out and she gave me a side of ranch, and I took a bite of each and I was in heaven. The fries were perfectly cooked, and the onion rings were completely delicious. Then a minute later my food came out and the

You won’t believe what’s happened to the old Johnson’s corner, the famous landmark in Colorado! It’s now a Black Bear Diner! I’ve been to a few Black Bear diners in Northern California and Arizona, and they’ve all been pretty great. But this one stood out. It’s got a bigger space, a really cool atmosphere, and fast and friendly service. So far, it’s definitely my favorite Black Bear diner. The place is spotless, and the service was fast and friendly. Our server, Caleb, was amazing! And the restaurant manager, Toya, went from table to table to make sure everything was perfect. I will be going there again in the near future. As with all other Black Bear Diners, I recommend this one too!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Black Bear Diner is the kind of place that reminds you why dining out can be so special. From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed like family and surrounded by a cozy, rustic atmosphere that just makes you feel at home. The portions are huge (bring your appetite!) and the food is always hot, fresh, and full of flavor. What stood out most to me was how much care goes into every plate—from the fluffy pancakes and hearty breakfasts to the savory comfort food dinners. And don’t even get me started on the desserts… absolutely worth saving room for! The staff is friendly, attentive, and genuinely makes you feel like you’re a regular, even if it’s your first visit. Whether you’re grabbing breakfast, brunch, or dinner, you’ll leave satisfied, smiling, and probably already plannin
