Love this place. Always stop here on my way to Oregon! Gluten free buns and terrific burgers and fries! Update- visited again 3 days later and ordered an iced peanut butter latte! SO good and they have oat milk and almond milk. Saige was super helpful!
This cozy gem offers delicious, organic meals made with high-quality ingredients and a warm atmosphere that nourishes both body and soul.

Yummy, full belly goodness! I have celiac disease, was able to order an entree thali style w/o naan and it was full gluten-free and dairy-free. The waitress didn’t seem to write a note of my allergy which usually makes me nervous as I am very sensitive to gluten cross-contact but I had no symptoms here, just an exquisite meal in a beautiful place. Stellar!
Known for its mouthwatering variety, this spot features a full case of creative, delicious donuts that keep everyone coming back for more.

We had been warned that they sell out early, so we arrived right when they opened and their stock was full! I was so excited to see an entire case dedicated to gluten free donuts. There were several flavor options of GF cake donuts — plain, cinnamon sugar, crumb, blueberry, chocolate frosted, and maple frosted. The maple was perfect!
My husband is not GF and got the apple fritter and a cinnamon twist. Both were huge and delicious.

Beware of your bill and up charges. I’ve been here about 5 times now. Prices are high for a small burger with fries ($30 without any drink) but I’ve taken friends here as I like the food and atmosphere. However, at this point there is a good chance I won’t be back.
Every time I’ve been here (except once when someone else paid), it feels like I’ve been nickeled and dimed for things that were not up front on the menu or were the opposite of what I was told when I asked an employee.
For example, my first visit here they upcharged all 8 of us a few dollars each for duck fat fries after we asked if anything comes with the burgers and waitress gave us several options, one of which was duck fat fries (with no mention of up charges, nor does the menu have the info). They wouldn’t honor her word, so We all paid the extra.
Another time, I was charged for a gluten free bun despite being told it was the same price as the regular bun before ordering. When I told the waitress she agreed it should be free but did nothing to reverse the charge. (It’s nice that they have gluten free bun tho)
Last week, a friend and I each ordered the same burger at the new Redding location but they each were a few dollars extra when the bill came. We showed the waitress the menu price and she said “oh the menu is wrong, the bill has the correct price.” We asked a few ways kindly but she wouldn’t honor the menu price we expected to pay when we ordered. She assured us new menus were being printed tomorrow. A week later and their menu (paper) still reflects the incorrect prices.
Tonight, a friend and I ordered 2 full meals and drinks. We spit them so we could have some of each and we were charged several dollar split fees without our knowing it. We hadn’t even asked for an extra plate.
It’s the little things that add up to create a customer experience and sentiment. I’m tired of leaving with a bad taste in my mouth and feeling like I’m supporting a business that’s all about the money. It also Seems like each time I go I’m liking the food less because of it. Sadly, I likely won’t be back or recommending pipe line anymore.
I didn’t order any drink and just my small burger and fries was $30 with tip. Same for my friends salad. Seems high to me.
This spot has a lively vibe and fantastic service, perfect for late-night cravings with a delightful unexpected twist.

Soooo gooooooood! For gluten-free you cannot eat the tortillas, but you can have the tacos in a lettuce wrap and it’s worth it! Dalia was the best waitress and recommended the best meal to me.
They were very good about providing food that was dairy free and gluten free. Best gluten free pasta I've ever eaten, very smooth texture. The girls that work there were great.
Experience a cozy diner vibe with bottomless coffee and stunning views of Mt. Shasta that create a perfect relaxing spot.

The OG Black Bear Diner! Great diner atmosphere and GREAT bottomless coffee! Excellent friendly service and with views of Mt Shasta. What else could you want? Oh, and they have gluten free bread so I was able to have a simple GF breakfast with some toast and didn't get sick at all! Thank you!!!
