About this business

The Bear Pit Bar-B-Q Restaurant is a restaurant based in Mission Hills, California. In their own words: “The Bear Pit s history began in the late 1940 s, when original owner Ben Baier moved from Missouri and started a small barbecue shack in Newhall, California. After several years the popularity of his food spread, so he decided to move to northern San Fernando Valley town of Dennis Park (later Mission Hills ) and start a small take-out restaurant. He partnered with Don Carrow (of Carrow s Restaurant fame) and had country singer Tennessee Ernie Ford as an early endorser of the restaurant. As the San Fernando Valley grew from being an agricultural community to a major city, the Bear Pit grew along with it. In the early 1960 s, the restaurant was sold to Ruben and Bea Gordon. The Bear Pit became a landmark in the Valley, so Gordon built two more Bear Pit restaurants in Canoga Park and Glendale.” Phone 8183652500 or visit bearpitbbq.com to get in touch.
