Reviews for Black Bear Tavern and Restaurant in McHenry, MD
Service was terrible. Two different employees came up to me after I walked in, I explained I placed an order. One just walked... away, the other told me where to go then walked away while I was asking a question. Then come home and find out the $14 teriyakibowl has a portion size for a small child, pictured below. This entire experience was horrible the food was cold, it took me 4minutes to drive home.

We went on a Sunday late afternoon. We sat at the bar and it wasn?t too busy. The bartender was attentive. The place appeared to... be clean. The food was so delicious! I didn?t get a picture of it, but my husband had the brisket flatbread and ate the wholething. We had mozzarella sticks, fries and coconut popcorn shrimp. There was a little mix up with out food, but they fixed itright away. We will definitely be back again. Read more
This was our first time here. We had a party of 6 and seated us outside right away. The server was nice and took our drink and... appetizer order. She came back and said the sampler that we ordered was not available. So we took a few more minutes looking atthe menu and when she came to take our order, she said they were out of ribs, steak,and shrimp. It was Father?s Day, the mainreason we went was for the ribs, which is what my husband wanted. So he had to change his order, he got the crab cake sandwichand fries. 2 of our party got the fish and chips, 1 got the brisket sandwich and 1 got the grilled chicken sandwich. We had towait over 30 minutes for our food and it wasn?t even busy. They were very skimpy on the fries and they were over cooked. Myhusband said the crab cake sandwich wasn?t bad but not worth what you paid for it. The sides for the fish and chips came outafter they were finished eating and the grilled chicken sandwich was not good at all. I know it wasn?t the servers fault at all,but it was a very disappointing Father?s Day dinner and definitely not worth what we paid. We don?t recommend going there, wedefinitely won?t go again!!

We came to Deep Creek Lake for the long weekend. We ate a late lunch and wasn't hungry until 8pm. Most restaurants close by 9PM.... This was one of the restaurants that closed at 10PM so we came here at 8:15pm on Sunday 5/29. So it seemed like only 3 womenwere waiting on all the tables. We sat down and waited 15 mins just for someone to stop by to offer us water, and another 10mins to take our order, and another 30 mins to get the food. So We didn't get food until almost an hour after arriving at therestaurant. The food wa pretty good though, the fries were on point, I loved the fries. I got hot wings with mango habernerosauce, and it was good, not as hot as they advertised though. My husband got a philly cheesesteak and he said it was ok. Read more
Delicious food -friendly waitress! Probably The best teriyaki sauce I?ve had was on the rice. Excellent crab cakes! Very... filling! Great atmosphere, nice spot on the lake to enjoy drinks and great food! We ordered chicken wrap, crab cakes, teriyakirice, Asha a couple of burgers for our table. The burgers were huge and delish! Crab cakes were fresh and very tasty! Batteredonion rings were yummy too!! Read more
We stopped here for lunch. It wasn't as nice and homey as what I thought it would be. It wasn't very busy. We sat at the bar.... Bartender was very nice and attentive. The hostess though was getting paid to sit there, not very friendly and not verywelcoming. The food came out quick and was good. We both had the brisket sandwich. Restaurant was clean as well as therestrooms. Read more
I guess all the 4 star and 5 star reviews are for the bar/beer. Because the food was barely edible. I got the peel and eat... shrimp as my appetizer, and some of the shrimp weren?t even cook through, the center on some shrimp were still raw/clear. Alsogot the half rack of babyback rib as my entree. It was tough to chew and swallow, and the meat on the rib did not have anyflavor, there?s no rub of any kind on the meat. All the flavor was from the sauce they splatter on top on the rib. I wasn?texpecting a competition winning rib coming here, but I can honestly say this was the worst babyback rib I?ve ever had.Definitely won?t be back again. Read more
Great atmosphere. Wonderful staff. The food was delicious. Wide selection of beers and wine. Beautiful view of the slopes and... lake. Live entertainment. It was a great experience and we had a wonderful time. Read more
