This little restaurant serves very good meals and has very good pastries. I enjoyed their salmon dinner, their marinated portabella mushroom sandwich, their sweet potato bread/cake and their blueberry muffin. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Their prices are better than most of the other...restaurants in the town of Denali.More

This is one of the better places for breakfast and you know it because there is a line out the door. The food is very good. We went for breakfast twice. They do have take away so I suggest ordering food early and then going...to pick it up.More

Good for breakfast but very busy. Sitting inside and out, but with rain of the area limited seating. Good food for breakfast, and for dinner on days open in evening. People nice. Sorry I still do not like being asked to tip on takeout!

We had two meals and breakfast there. The food was good and very reasonably priced which is unusual for a Denali. We recommend it

Great breakfast options and good coffee. Food is prepared to order, and hot when served. The staff are very friendly and gave smiles on their faces.

The Black Bear Coffee House was incredible. Get away from the $30 breakfast buffet at you hotel and go here. They had incredible fresh baked goods and regular breakfast items. The cinnamon rolls were incredible. The coffee was great. The service was awesome. If it...appears to be busy, it is not. They service people fairly quickly. This was the best breakfast I had on my two week cruise and land vacation. Do not miss!!More

I would rate this place above excellent! All the homemade bakery items were amazing and the breakfast was delicious! Cinnamon rolls are next level good. All the young ladies working up front had great customer service skills and all the guys in the back were...working hard to get the delicious food out quickly. If you are staying nearby you must stop in try this place.More

Went for coffee and breakfast. They were incredibly busy but handled the surge well. Our coffee was the best we’ve had on the whole trip. Breakfast was also good enough for us to try to figure out how to go back each morning before departing...Denali.More

This is a great place to grab a tasty bite! We went both days for breakfast that we were here and would’ve done lunch but came back from an activity MUCH later than anticipated. I got the breakfast bear-ito with sausage both times. It was...the best breakfast burrito I’ve ever had, very flavorful, hearty, not dry, great balance of ingredients, and perfectly seasoned. The sourdough pancakes were great and the rest of the family loved the bacon and great biscuits (we’re from Oklahoma so we recognize good biscuits)! I had a breve the first day and a latte with honey the next, and both were excellent! Everyone enjoyed their coffee. The staff was very friendly and got the food out quickly. We’ve been to all 50 states, and this is some of the best breakfast food and drinks we’ve had! I highly recommend this place for good food and coffee!More

Great casual food (chili & salads were excellent). Went back the next morning to pick up some bakery for the road - also excellent. Busy place - order at the counter and then food is delivered to your table. Indoor and outdoor seating available.

This was highly recommended by one of the places we visited so decided to stop in for coffee & breakfast. Not sure what the hype was all about! You form a line & order at counter (no problem) I had a breakfast sandwich with egg/cheese/bacon...& hubs ordered omelette. Zero flavor on either! Kept adding salt & pepper so could taste something-anything!! Too bad, it is cute & a good locationMore

We didn't want the full breakfast buffet at the resort so we walked over to the Black Bear to get coffee. They are right across the street from the Denali Princess lodge. the restaurant is quite small and it seemed very popular they had pretty...good coffee and excellent cinnamon rolls and muffins. we also ordered a breakfast Bear-ito. pretty good if not a little messy to eat. I would recommend this place for breakfast. prices are typical for Alaska.More

We went to this spot for breakfast and we were craving some biscuits and gravy. So we went there and ordered ur breakfasts. There was a notice that says they are a counter service. So I thought we would pick up our food there, so...I did not tip when asked. When the drink came in, my name was called and so I went to the counter and picked up my drink. However, a waiter went to me at the table to serve my breakfast food. It all went in a span of 2 minutes. I wish I had tipped as a result, but the best thing that I can do for now is to just leave this restaurant a great review. They deliver food insanely quickly guys. And their (double) biscuits and gravy was so good!More
