SanDiegoVille was created in 2010 to report about all the fun & delicious happenings taking place around America's Finest City and we quickly earned a reputation for being a news source for and by those that shun archaic journalistic practices in pursuit of reporting the real story. The El Cajon location will also offer a selection of beer and wine. The menu will mimic the style of old newspapers, even titled The Black Bear Gazette with articles on the front page, and will offer a huge array of dishes including breakfast, burgers, salads, sandwiches, entrees, desserts and shakes.

Like other branches of the chain, the restaurant will offer a rustic motif with bear decor dotted all over the restaurant, including the signature 12-foot-tall black bear carving by artist Ray Schulz that greets customer of every location. The first San Diego location of Black Bear Diner will open at the 7,000 square-foot building that was previously a Coco's at 1025 Fletcher Parkway in El Cajon. Last year, Black Bear Diner announced it had signed a multi-unit development agreement with its existing franchise partners, Karan Gogri and Sanjiv Patel of National Restaurant Inc., that will result in an additional 19 units over a six-year period including two locations planned for San Diego. The chain of 'old fashioned' American country diners currently has more than 120 locations in 12 states. Black Bear Diner is planning on opening two outposts in America's Finest City.īased out of Redding, CA, Black Bear Diner was founded by Bruce Dean and Bob & Laurie Mannley in 1995.

A national comfort food chain with more than 100 locations around the country will open its first San Diego branch later this year.
