Since 1995, Black Bear Diner has been bringing a unique experience to the diner franchise restaurant category.
As a business with over 140 locations in 14 states and counting, our brand values, culture and heritage are ready to position you for success.
Black Bear Diner is a fast-growing, community-oriented, family dining concept that offers great food in a fun, bear-themed atmosphere. Born from a desire to bring home-style comfort food classics and personal service back to the dining experience, the brand is strategically growing its national footprint.
Now is the perfect time to join the Black Bear Diner family as we expand and continue to see year-after-year expansion. Our Franchise Partners keep coming back for more as they continue to invest and grow footprints in their local markets. And there’s room to scale in your own market, as more than half of our growth is coming from franchise locations. Look at where we’ve been and where we’re going.
