I love that the menu changes every week, so there’s always something new to try—classic flavors like chocolate chip are comforting, but the rotating specialty ones make every visit exciting. The presentation is top-notch too; the pink box and perfect cookie designs make them feel extra special.“

Parking: Although front parking may seem full, the spots open up frequently and there are more spots a available further down.

Kid-friendliness: Mini cookies are a great choice for kids and limiting the sugar rush.

Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs or other obstacles to impede wheelchair access.“

“Great customer service and always delicious donuts 🍩“

“Just moved in the neighborhood and love that I have this sweet donut shop for these early foggy morning! Love the ham, cheese, jalapeño croissant and the donuts were light, fluffy but the maple bars are definitely hubs favorite! Every neighborhood needs a good donut shop - this one is it!!“

“I love the donuts. the homeless around there are too much. I know it’s not the fault the donut shop , but they do have some issues with people hanging around in the parking lot , just expect to see some wild stuff outside. They don’t bother people I don’t think but they look rough it’s a little unsettling for kids probably.“

“Went there and the conchas were really soft and still warm which was a good sign. Although not all the pastries that i seen online were there. Which were not ready but you can actually see them making the new Bach of pastries while inside which was cool. And it's not pricey like other places.“

“Smith’s Bakeries, has a small satellite space located inside the Countryside Market.Smith’s bakery has been a staple in Bakersfield for about 70 years. They now have several different satellite shops in Bakersfield, along with their main bakery on Union Ave.Try their thumb print cookies, I don’t know anyone who doesn’t like them.“

“At 4 am on any given day the coffee is always fresh and the mexican sweet bread is warm and fresh out the ovens. They have these bolillos filled with cream cheese and jalapenos that are sooo good. When im in the mood for a hot out the oven sweet treat thats where i go every time!!!“

“Super amazing! Try the cookie dough muffin!🍪“

“An awesome bakery offering not only fresh baked goods but specialty items such as cakes like their delicious champagne cake , pies and specialty breads like jalapeno bread. Should be noted that orders over $50 requires a deposit. A great place for fresh baked items and specialty items for the important events in your life. sugar free items such as cakes and pies are available when preordered by phone. A great option for the diabetic or sugar challenged person in your family or friends circle.“

“We like the champurrado and the bread 🍞 yummy 😋“

“(Translated by Google) I was looking for authentic bread from Mexico and I found it. It is that place that invites you to enter even if you are not hungry, the aroma of freshly baked bread and the smell of coffee is irresistible. A local business, operated by the same owners, if you're not in a hurry, will engage you in conversation. If you are in the neighborhood, visit the Conchitas bakery ??(Original)Buscaba pan auténtico de México y lo encontré. Es ese lugar que invita a entrar aunque no traigas hambre, el aroma a pan recién horneado y el olor a café es irresistible. Un negocio local, operado por los mismos dueños, si no llevas prisa, te atrapará en conversación. Si te encuentras por el barrio, visita la panadería Conchitas ??“

“Every time I venture into the mall, Auntie Anne's Pretzels is a stop I can't resist. Their pretzels are consistently fresh, light, and delicious with just the right amount of salt. In my opinion, they really do make the best pretzels around! I've tried other places, but none compare to the quality these guys provide.
What stands out, aside from the pretzels, is the service. I’ve never had a negative experience at this location – the staff is friendly and efficient, making it a pleasant part of my shopping experience. If you’re ever in the mall and craving a tasty snack, I definitely recommend giving Auntie Anne's a try!“

“You probably already know they have awesome donuts, but did you know they have taro smoothies with or without boba? They are so good!“

“We did not get a cinnabon. We got the Carvel Sunday. The prices are high but we come here just for the Carvel ice cream. For soft serve, it's pretty awesome. The girl was so nice and put the Sunday together just like my daughter asked for it. The chicken on a stick at the checkout looks so freaking good. I did not get it though because ...My concern was how long had all that food been sitting out there. There were mountains of chicken. Do they really sell it all in the required amount of time? I didn't see how that was possible. It sure looked crispy and delicious though. We were on a road trip and I didn't want to get sick by eating old chicken. This is a newer gas station and there is so much great junk food to eat here. So if you're on a road trip, you definitely should pop by nice atmosphere and nice people. Hopefully they'll respond here about whether all that chicken was just for display or if it really does sell out in the hour.“

“AMAZING COFFEE! The staff was knowledgeable and super friendly! It was our first time there and we asked what the cashier what drinks she recommended and boy was she right! I loved the fact that she didn't seem annoyed by us asking about the menu! She's great! The drinks were so flippin good. I didn't get a picture before trying them but they were topped with whipped cream and cinnamon on the dirty horchata, the whipped cream and chocolate syrup on the banana mocha drink were perfectly balanced! Not overpowering and not too sweet! It's definitely our new favorite place for coffee. Highly recommend this place for some great coffee!“

“After doing extra cardio lately..hiking, a boot camp this morning, and my regular training it was only right that my girl and I treated ourselves to something sweet after dinner

I’m a nighttime donut person, not a morning one, so most shops are usually low on inventory by then. I called around to a few places..some were honest, some… not so much. I even stopped by one before this spot, looked through the window, and they straight-up lied about what they had left. I didn’t even walk in

I called this place and asked about their inventory. She told me they had over half left. No chocolate (not an issue for me), and when I asked about fritters, she said they had a good amount. Sold.

I pulled up and ordered not one, not two, but TWELVE donuts. She even threw in two extra, which honestly felt like a reward after all the extra steps we’ve been getting in

My fiancée and I ended up eating there since the shop had this super cute, old-school vibe. The workers probably thought we were crazy, but I made sure to compliment them because that was hands down the best fritter I’ve had in Bakersfield

You’ll definitely see me back maybe even with a few of my gym bros. All I ask is that those fritters stay in stock… because they were PACKING

Donuts were had around 7:30 PM 🍩“

“I was raised in Bakersfield. I no longer live there but, when I visit... I MOST DEFINITELY NEED MY SMILEY FACE COOKIES! These cookies not only makes me smile but, my tummy as well! I must say there has been some imitators of these cookies but, none of them will ever compare to these yummy most amazing cookies EVER!! I will most definitely be visiting soon!!“

“Jeff's Biscotti E Ricotta are great BUT his Cuccidati are amazing. The fig filling has a hint of orange and vanilla that made my taste buds jump for joy. Don't get mad if you turn into a fig junkie. Thank you Jeff for these amazing cookies and the great customer service. I look forward to trying more of your products. Lori“

“Good donuts and coffee very too“

“good food and snacks for adults and kids“

“Angelica's on Niles has some great Mexican sweet bread and some great birthday and wedding cakes at great prices, we have been several times to buy some sweet bread or a few birthday cakes and 1 wedding cake and we have been nothing but extremely satisfied with all there items“

“Smith’s Bakery is a gem of a place in Bakersfield, truly amazing. Everything I’ve had from there for the 25 years I’ve been going there has been nothing but the best. But my God, are they overpriced. They raised their prices dramatically during the pandemic, which I understand to a point. But now they appear to be arbitrarily raising prices just because. And it happens in such a short amount of time that it’s kind of pitiful. For example, they raised the price of a box of their thumbprint cookies by $2 in ONE month. What justifies THAT much of a cost increase in such a short period of time?“

“I love this place! My bf and I visit at least 3 times per week. The bread is always fresh and the taste is amazing. I usually find that the bread from other places is a little dry and it never lives up to the beautiful colors and designs...not here, though. Here, it's delicious every. Single. Time!“

“Prices went up since I last remember for my Bakersfield visits. This location does not get much product for sell and difficult when you have limits available. Thump cookies were 3+ days old which is a bit odd to continue to sell so I did not buy the kids the small cookies. Wish they had more availability.“

“Quality made pies and cakes that I have ordered. I’m very happy with all of my purchases from Karen. Thank you!“

“The food had an unmatched breadth of spices and depth of flavor--can't go wrong with anything you order. The menu was out of some items and other items take a while to cook, which we were informed about in advance. Service was kind and attentive. More people in Bakersfield need to know about this place and Yemeni cuisine.“

“BE AWARE!!!

I was visiting my friends in the area and got my self some food before we meet. I order a palabok because thats my favorite since i was a child. When I took the first bite I got a wierd feeling and got confused. After eating it for a while I realize that the food was so goooood and it made me feel like gordon ramsey prepared it for me. This place is Awesome and the staff is super wonderful!“

“Angelica's Bakery is a Bakersfield Original Legend!
They always welcome all kinds of customers with a smile and respect. The baked goods are always tasty, fresh and affordable!
My partner and I LOOOVVEEEE the Crema con Jalapeno Pan and it serves perfectly as a hot chip and pan dulce mashup!
The gentleman at the front is always so kind and understanding, and he definitely cares about the community and getting to know them.
The Bakery is always clean and smells fresh every time we walk in.
It's such a blessing and vibe to be able to walk into an original styled bakery shop, and I highly recommend it for your life experiences. It will mean more to you one day!
Thank you Angelica's!“

“I get my morning coffee or matcha before work. Buttery Scones so good. I love the bacon cheddar pastry for a quick breakfast treat.“

“I just have to give the hugest shout out to the girls who work at the Carvel/Cinnabon part of the store. I must say how unbelievably UNFAIR it is that they don't get tipped. It's so sad that they're not appreciated for the excellent customer service. I mean really? These girls work hard and with a smile. They deserve a little extra for their hard work and dedication. Concerned but hopeful. Good Luck girls“

“Great tacos & burritos! I didn’t have a piece of gristle, the meat was tasty & flavorful! The donuts are really good too.... even at 4pm they tasted fresh! Even better: they have Dollar tacos on Tuesday AND Thursdays. Win Win Win!🌮🌮🌯🌯🍩🍮🍰“
