Bear Wallow Cafe

We finally went here for lunch after driving by many times. Their burgers are excellent, my husband had a chicken salad. Everything tasted fresh and we will start going there more often :) 5 stars well deserved.

I went here for breakfast, was suggested by the local gentleman from the gas station. Great chicken fried steak! The service was on top and overall amazing even just passing through. Great vibe with staff.

A very friendly hometown Diner. Open for breakfast lunch and dinner. A good selection on the menu for each time you want to eat. Sarah our waitress was absolutely wonderful. I had the open-faced beef roast sandwich and mashed potatoes. Was very good. My wife had a Mexican combo plate. Very large portions so you will get plenty to eat. They also had quite a large assortment of pies. See the attached pictures if you would like.

Stopped for breakfast on 9/11/23. Loved the decor and the philosophy - conservative, 2nd amendment, anti - tyranny. No talking on cell phones in the dining room; love it! Not for everyone, but they get my vote! Kathleen was our server. She steered me to the Chicken fried steak and eggs - I'm glad she did! Husband had Juevos Rancheros and commented on the generous chunks of beef that were smothered in with his eggs, tortilla chips and cheese. We'll be back next time we pass through!

Quaint small town diner with very friendly staff and cozy atmosphere. Fresh pies are amazing. Fruit and pie crusts and very tasty. Makes for a good day trip from Show Low to see beautiful Alpine.

Hello reader. Not from here, passing through on my way north. Found this place and it’s pretty good. The beef soup was amazing good. We had the sandwiches which were on point as we were rolling. The soup to go comes in a foam coffee go up which you can eat on the go. They make pretty good pie too.
The general store across the store is pretty cool too.
Free street parking right out front.

Always delicious... Definitely has great staff and a great atmosphere. We definitely will be returning..

Found the breakfast fantastic and the service great. Definitely home style cooking and more importantly a home style feeling. Staff were all great towards me and my wife. This was the place that I enjoyed the most on my Grand Circle tour road trip. Wish I could go there right now for a meal. People should be aware that cell phone usage is not allowed inside. Yet another reason to love this place. Enjoy the meal and company. Use your phone after.

Best breakfast spot in Alpine, hands down. Becoming a weekly ritual for my wife and I. Great food, even greater people!

This little place in the middle of Alpine Arizona is such an amazing place!! The food was fantastic, the service was second to none and the scenery was absolutely beautiful! If you're ever up North, I highly recommend stopping in for breakfast!

We got the Big Bear omlet and it is huge! We could have split it. The waitress was very nice and the restroom was clean.

I stayed overnight in Alpine, AZ and ate breakfast at Bear Wallow Cafe. Breakfast was delicious and customer service was great. 'Merica.

Old and Funky, Great Food, big dishes, and fast and friendly service, loved the knotty pine in the back.

Place was hopping with customers a bit pricey but food was ok waitress was on it and had a great disposition

We had breakfast. I had the omelette with hashbrowns. My boys had french toast and scrambled eggs and hashbrowns. We were all very happy with taste and service.

Maybe it's nostalgia, but this place has got to be one of the best breakfast places I've ever been. They do everything well, and it's such a cozy atmosphere, it's hard not to love.

I found this place on a small advertisement at a small gift store in a ghost town in New Mexico. It was on my way back home so I chose to go this way vs the 10. No waiting and grabbed a spot in the back with a view. The waitress didn't see me come in so it took a little longer to get a menu. I had the half order biscuits and gravy, eggs over easy with hash browns. It was the BEST biscuits and gravy I have ever had. It was hot and I had to drink water to cool it off. I came in very hungry. I had to try their pie too. I ordered mixed berry and it was warned up with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream. Everything was to die for and I love this place. It is a pretty drive through the mountains to get to Phoenix. I will definitely eat here again on my way to New Mexico. I can't say enough good things about this place! Try it and it won't disappoint. Best to call prior to find out their current operating hours and days before you go. I got lucky when I went because if I had shown up the next day I would have found them closed.

They were slammed which apparently is normal. You never would have known any issues with the wonderful attitude of the waitress. Everyone knew everyone. Hi Norm. It may be the only place for breakfast but you weren't rushed to move on. Oh..and meal was fantastic. Met a gal by the name of Kay or Kate. Small world, we went to the same high school in Tucson. She looked 10-15 years younger than me, but only ?3?. Such a Nice accommodating town.

The food was outstanding. Staff was friendly. Food came out on time .My coffee was always full. Cool mountain vibe, mountain decor . A local favorite,the place was packed. Cool signs and local poetry to keep you entertained all throughout restaurant. If you swing to the right,you'll love it. Liberals beware.

Stopped by on way thru town, hoping they were open as we had eaten here last year. Place was packed as it was the only restaurant open on 4th of July and once again food, staff and place was wonderful!
