Customer & Critic Comments -

"Thank you for another splendid time at Cooking Bear, greatly enjoyed, and much spoken of by us to all who cared to listen on our further travels!" Lew Rood e-mail 19th May 2009

"Be careful of this place. You might just fall in love, lose your heart and develop a passion for real classic hospitality..." Gwynne Conlyn 8th May 2009

"Cannot rate the Cooking Bear highly enough. Our group of six was blown away by the quality of the food, the setting, the service etc. All pulled off in an easy-going manner by real people. Top class stuff without the big city snootiness.”  Will Butler 05-Oct-2008 on EatOut.
