I got the BBQ Bacon Cheeseburger and was not let down. Huge burger and large portion of fries. Definitely will be going back. I recommend it if you're in the Bloom!

I think Bear's Place has some of the worst service I have gotten since I moved to Bloomington. The only service I got was when I got a Beer at the Bar. Sat down to watch some Jazz for 30 minutes and no service. Then I moved to the dinning area for another 20 minutes and still no service. Everyone seated around me got service. I'll never come back.
