Blue Bear - Racine

Delicious farm to table breakfast. Great, fast service and a fantastic bloody mary !

Food was outstanding, really unique and excellent. Prices are high, but the portions are generous and very tasty. We had a reservation for 4 people, but waited over 20 minutes to be seated, which was frustrating. Overall, I would recommend to anyone.

Great food! Enough choices that there is something for everyone. I’ll eat there again.

The shepherd pie was the most delicious dish I've had in a long while..Shh. don't tell anyone I licked the pan..It was that good!! My daughter was surprised how fresh and delicious her fish was, being from Milwaukee where there are good places on every corner to eat. She was surprise that Racine could offer better food. Delicious!?

This was our first time. Cute place set up perfectly for Covid safety. The waitress was great in that she was helpful, friendly and knowledgeable.
We took her suggestions and ordered smoked brisket entrees, they were amazing. Fresh baked bread and homemade jam. We will definitely go back.

Has a potential to be good if the employees paid attention to details. The serving of 4 pancakes is very nice. But when you forget to bring butter, and provide a small container of syrup, and when you finally bring 3 hard as rock slices of butter, the proportions of pancakes to butter and syrup do not work.

I realize Covid is a challenging time for all, but at the prices I paid I expect details to be done correctly.

We visit regularly because we can dine outside away from folks- we always go for dinner.
Blue Bear has a greatly unique menu which is almost entirely (maybe entirely) gluten free. From appetizers like Nashville Hot Wings !!) and Warm Crab Dip (yes, GF) to entrees like GF Cod Fish Fry (which is better than terrific!) or Chili Pork Verde (it was Awesome) and desserts like home made GF Cherry Pie or Creme Brulee. They do everything well at Blue Bear, their breakfast is just as creative and satisfying and also, Gluten Free.

Fantastic!

Creative, delicious, locally sourced - what's not to love! Honestly one of the best brunches I've had in a very long time (including NYC, Chicago, Charlotte, Milwaukee, etc.). And really nice people too. Can't wait to go back! This is one not to be missed.

Great spot. Definitely sitting on top of the Racine area food charts. I had a good mix of food my first time and will certainly be back for brunch and more dinners the rest of my trip. The ribs, meatballs, chips and flourless cake all hit the spot!

The food is consistently good quality. The service is always good. The decor is attractive and the art is interesting. You don't often see good art in a restaurant. The only thing I would criticize is that the Morning Buns are over baked and it's hard to cut through them with a knife. In warm weather, the patio is absolutely stunning with hydrangeas and vines and the potted plants are beautiful. Makes it easy to forget that you're on a busy street. Char Petersen

So happy to have this little gem in Racine county! We loved all of the fresh, healthy options. Our server was attentive and checked back on us often. We'd love to check out the brunch!

Long wait for them to take our order and bring food but server was very polite and food was excellent.

Good quality ingredients equal good food. Saw the tomato plants that were to be in my salad as i was walking in. Homemade ranch. The garbage pile sandwich was hard to eat and every bit as delightful as it sounds. This restaurant deserves lines out the door.

excellent excellent excellent excellent excellent!

Always a great meal at Blue Bear. My wife loved the s’mores oatmeal.

Covid precautions were excellent, food was good and served in a reasonable amount of time.

Friendly place, delicious brunch, helpful server, safe environment with lots of Covid
precautions! Thanks for a great Sunday brunch!

Great experience! There were a lot of bees outside and our waitress moved us into an enclosed outside area. When a bee flew into my mimosa, she replaced it quickly. This is a hidden gem in Racine and we’ll be back soon!!

Food was good, nicely off the beaten path. A bit scimpy on portion size, even for small plates. The mushroom asparagus goat cheese toast was outstanding! Will return just for that.

Overall, a good experience. They were out of items from the menu. The food for the 4 of us came out really staggered. So That was annoying. Waitress said she’d bring a part to one meal out soon (corn bread) but forgot. Water was never refilled. But the food was good and staff were friendly.

Great food, great service, perfect summer day to eat outside on the beautiful patio with Rose of Sharon, Hydrangea, and Hibiscus all around me. Prettiest patio ever! Char Petersen

We absolutely loved the food and service!

Unique spin in traditional breakfast. Homemade bread is excellent! Very friendly & attentive servers and they were busy.

Excellent service. Good spacing between tables. YUMMY food.

Really great food. Love the outdoor seating areas.

Food was very good but a tad bit overpriced. Would definitely go back

Love the keto menu options!

This place is a gem! Wonderful fresh healthy food and drinks! Even had almond milk for my Mexican Hot Chocolate which was delicious. Keto friendly and great salads too. Servers were terrific and friendly. Will go back as soon as possible! Five out of five stars

Had street Tacos and pasta dish. Very good. Outside eating area needed to be cleaned better.

Our first visit of many more to come exceeded expectations! The quiche of the day was outstanding. On our way back home (Milwaukee area) we stopped at their bakery and loaded up on delish treats. We’ll be back for sure!

Delicious, adorable patio!!

Love this restaurant. Good food, good service, very peaceful. The outdoor seating was more than 6 feet apart, I felt very safe eating there. We will be back!

My husband and I wanted to get out and have a safe restaurant meal. I am vegetarian and gluten free, so it is difficult to eat out. We have also not eaten out anywhere since the COVID thing started, so we were ready for a treat.

We sat outside, all the staff wore masks and were extremely friendly and accommodating. The food was great, I had a lot to choose from, and we had a great time. He had a reuben sandwich and blueberry lemonade (5 stars). I had a bowl with quinoa, slaw and fried portabella mushrooms. It was good, though I would have liked a little more kick to it. We sat at a distanced table. There's nothing they can do about road noise and they're done a great job of creating outside seating, including couple- and family-sized cabanas. Lovely. Very pleasant, we will return.

They’ve done a great job outfitting the patio for outdoor seating. Had a great breakfast!

Food is excellent and the staff is very friendly

So good! Nice menu choices. Ate outside and I think the lovely patio area will continue to get even nicer as time goes by. Waitress was efficient and gave some great suggestions. Really enjoyed our meal!

When you walk up to the door you can see the fresh greens they have planted in the ground. I thought that was pretty impressive ... have never seen that before at a restaurant. We sat outside because it is summer and we love open air dining. Not a great view of anything, but that's not a big deal. Food was unique and very good. Service was good too.

great food, good service a nice find in Racine!!!!!

The food is fantastic with lots of options for all the diets of my guests. And we really appreciate the pandemic precautions
