Black Bear Cafe

We've been eating here for years, back when we were still tourists. Since we've moved up 6 years ago we've become regulars. The food is always great, the service is always great, everything is made from scratch. Great homemade cakes and pies for dessert. I just wish they were open year round because I do miss my favorite fish sandwich during the winter when they are closed.

This is a wonderful place to eat. We visited twice in two days while camping for a week in SMNP. This is a true country restaurant with down home cooking and comfort food. This place gets high marks because they deserve it. The entire time my family ate there the lady at checkout barely had a chance to chat with people while they checked out because she was consistently on the phone taking orders. If you want good country cooking in a Rustic atmosphere then you Have to stop here. The deserts are home made and delicious.

Great food! We have eaten here a couple of times now and I have liked everything we have had. It is a small place with limited seating, but worth it. The staff is very friendly and treats you like family. The fish sandwich is excellent although it is rather large and not too easy to eat as a sandwich. This was not a problem for me since I was dining in. The desserts are also very good.

I had the fish sandwich with a side of coleslaw. The coleslaw was excellent. The fish sandwich was also really good. I like that they gave me plenty of tomato, lettuce, onion, and pickles. It was nice not having to beg for more. They were quite busy, but the service was prompt and very friendly. I highly recommend!
