Black bear diner is a cute honey diner that is found in Horizon, TX. The service was great the servers were friendly and were able to recommend some of their favorite dishes. My boyfriend ended up trying the bacon classic cheese burger and I had the open faced turkey sandwich. The food was exceptional comfort food. The staff was extremely friendly. My boyfriend and I also shared a brownie sundae. The options are endless. If you are in the mood for comfort food check out the Black Bear Diner

Don't be intimidated by the gas station vibe. Local pit stop for some brunch! The restaurant opening is located inside the Petro travel center store and there is plenty of parking.It was our first time here and the food was pretty ok for a truck stop dinner and the portions were large. However the Service wasn't terrific. We were a party of 12 and they were able to accommodate for our large party. Working in the food industry myself, I understand the struggle of rushes but in this case, we had to keep reminding the waiter of two orders. One of them even came so late that the food was cold, and everyone in our party almost finished with their meals. As for the second one It seems like they had forgotten it because we had to come up to the front and ask and we saw the plate just sitting there. They did reimburse us for one meal but service was a bit disappointing.

Looks like what I've been looking for! Traditional American Style Diner!Service was pretty good. No complaints there. Ambiance was perfect. It has that trucker, small town American diner ambiance. The food was delicious! I want to visit here again next Saturday and try a different breakfast plate. First off, I've been wanting good hash browns that don't seem like frozen or bought pre-prepped and these hit the spot! They're unique also. Never had this style. The potato slivers were really thick so really tasty. It was toasty and soft, so perfect texture. I just wish it was seasoned. I understand why it may not be but it would've made it perfect. I came originally to order the ham steak but I saw home made hot Italian sausage and I had to try it. I'm so glad I did. It was delicious! So tasty! It's going to be hard not ordering that on my next visit. I didn't care for the Apple Cobbler. It was just a mini apple pie. I mean if that's what you want go for it. It tasted good. It's just not my ideal version of a cobbler. I still highly recommend this place and I'm definitely eating here again on my next opportunity to eat breakfast!

In general, the husband and I like Black Bear Diner. The first one we went to was years ago in Phoenix and always a favorite place on a birthday. More recently, we've gone to the newer truckstop locations. It was nice to find one in El Paso.This location seems fairly new. It's located inside the Petro and replaces the previous restaurant. We were at the Petro for a couple of days on a reset and had three of our meals at the Black Bear.Each visit, we were seated right away. There are booths and tables along with counter dining. The menu has plenty of options, including entrees with smaller portions and low calorie options. The food was good, but lacking at times. The Fit & Focused Chicken Apple Scramble was greasy and missing the avocado. The husband had a cheeseburger that was very good, but the coleslaw was cabbage with very little else. Some of the food came out barely warm. Overall, food was hit or miss. All of our servers were pleasant. Service was good.

I wouldn't know if the foods any good, I can't comment on the ambiance other than not to friendly, service is underwhelming considering i just got kicked out because, "We're not open right now!" It's 6:15am and they're still not open yet!Then change your hours!!!

The food is great but overpriced and there is a constant turn over of waitresses. The style of the dinner is that of old time America. Me and my wife use to go there all the time but the prices kept going up and we could no longer afford it.

Had been waiting to visit this location since opening and we seemed to have picked a perfect day to do so. We initially tried for Fathers day but the wait was just a tad over what we felt comfortable doing. Also as a recommendation to other people, this is a diner, which means it is not that large of a place and large parties will take time to be seated as the accommodations are a tad lackluster in that sense. Their food as always was as delicious as their arizona locations that we frequent throughout the year. I had their Country Fried Steak eggs benedict and as always the portions were good and hearty. The fruit was deliciously crisp and in season and honestly everything felt and tasted great. The atmosphere is one you would expect and it does feel very active throughout your meal. Please remember they do have fudge as well as other goodies you can take afterwards. This is inside the Petro station where there used to be a Skillet Diner so please don't go in expecting this to be a large establishment like its other iterations. Also shoutout to Petro for awesome amenities while traveling.
