Black Bear Diner: Good Food and Good Friends

Black Bear Diner

So, you’re in Portland. You’ve got your hipster beard and your bike-riding friends, but you’re looking for something a little more wholesome than doughnuts and coffee. Where do you turn? 

Well, if you’re hungry but not necessarily looking to hang with the hipsters (a common mistake), then Black Bear Diner is the place for you. The meal arrives quickly and the menu is excellent.

So there’s no reason to wait a whole five minutes while waiting on someone else’s order when they take forever at Starbucks.

The atmosphere is fun and welcoming

You will feel right at home in the Bear Diner. The atmosphere is fun and welcoming, with a cozy atmosphere that invites you to relax, chat with friends and family members, and enjoy delicious food. There are televisions everywhere so you can watch your favorite sports teams play on game days if you’d like.

The menu has something for everyone: 

  • Americans love their burgers made from Angus beef. 
  • Canadians adore poutine (french fries topped with cheese curds).
  • Tacos are popular in Mexico.
  • Italians enjoy eating spaghetti.
  • Scandinavians delight in pasta Alfredo and we’re sure there’s something else that we’ve missed.

Restaurant’s decor is inspired by outdoors

If you’re looking for a place to dine that’s not just good food, but also has an authentic, rustic feel and atmosphere, The Bear Diner is the place. 

  • The restaurant’s decor is inspired by the great outdoors, log cabin theme, hunting and fishing theme, outdoor seating, lots of wood, mountains and lakes.
  • The diner serves up traditional American fare with some twists on classics like sandwiches and burgers (burgers are served on brioche bread), salads with homemade dressing options such as ranch or bleu cheese vinaigrette, homemade soups (including vegetarian stuffed peppers), French fries cooked in beef drippings and yes even pancakes.

The menu is hard to beat

Go Bananas at Black Bear Diner

Potassium, which is found in abundance in bananas and aids in the maintenance of fluid equilibrium in the body, also helps to control blood pressure. Additionally, they include vitamin B6, which promotes a more effective conversion of food into energy. 

Bananas contain only 40 calories per cup (1 banana). Bananas provide a lot of fibre and little calories. As a result, they are a great option if you want to eat well while still savouring your favourite dishes.

Make your own omelet at the Omelet Bar

The Omelet Bar is a great place to start your day. You can choose from several types of omelets, including the classic Western-style egg and cheese, or try one with vegetables and meats. 

If you’re feeling ambitious, go for an “Omelet Supreme” with three different kinds of meat (turkey, ham and bacon) plus cheese, onions and bell peppers. This dish comes with toast for $4 more than other options.

If you don’t feel like making your own omelet at the diner but still want some eggs Benedict or French toast later on in the day. Or if they’re too busy serving up meals at midnight, you can always order them from their menu instead.
