Since 1995, Black Bear Diner has been bringing a unique experience to the diner franchise restaurant category.
As a business with close to 170 locations in 14 states and counting, our brand values, culture and heritage are ready to position you for success.
Guests love the huge, generous servings, making the quality and abundance of food we serve unmatched in the category and a big reason they return again and again.
Our typical guests are loyal, multi-generational families of all ages that visit us for life events or to enjoy a hearty meal.
Serving all-day breakfast, lunch and dinner, these solid revenue drivers are just one of the factors that help our Franchise Partners continually achieve high AUVs.
We’re continually recognized by the industry. For 5 years in a row, we’ve been ranked on Entrepreneur’s Franchise 500.
Our bear-themed branding is seen throughout the diner from the welcome bear wood carving outside to the cabin-themed interior and branded merchandise. 
“The financial model is there, and it’s a strong P&L situation. If you’re going to be part of something, this is the brand to be part of.”
