Such a delightful little cafe! Even simple food like scrambled eggs and sautéed spinach was so delicious. Their buttered baguette is to die for. Highly recommended!

Absolutely fantastic restaurant. Limited options on the menu, but the food is fantastic. Their service.is great as well. Went around 11 am and they had both breakfast as well as lunch options. The restaurant has a great decor and ambience. Lots of people there, seems to be a very popular place. They have seating inside and out. Would highly recommend this place.

Great and delicious breakfast. Great coffee. Lots of pastry options like cakes and freshly baked baguettes and croissants. Amazing hospitality. It has both inside and outside seating options. Definitely a place that I’ll visit frequently. I got the eggs breakfast sandwich with bacon and veggies on a French baguette, with an Americano.

I love this little restaurant. They have delicious fresh bread and pastries, as well as a weekly rotating pre fixed menu with a soup, entree, and dessert for around $20, which is an amazing value. There’s outdoor seating, and they also serve coffee, espresso, and tea. This is probably my new favorite place to relax and enjoy a sunny lunch with iced coffee and a sandwich.

My office decided to order lunch from The Blue Bears for a lunch event. Our team really enjoyed the carrot ginger soup, the tomato, mozzarella, pesto sandwich, and the roasted pork loin entree. The ordering and pick up service was very friendly and nice. The office voted that they would do lunch from The Blue Bears again.
