26 Best Cafes in Bakersfield

“I had the Moroccan Eggs and they were out of this world amazing! Full of flavor and spice! The perfect breakfast/brunch“

“Great food, friendly staff. I come here once a week .“

“The ambience is so inviting I love the old look of the countertops, but most importantly, the food is absolutely fantastic. We can’t choose just one meal everything we’ve had has been excellent.“

“I'm a retired chef from Louisiana but living in Nashville nowadays. I know about eating healthy and I would give this place 2 thumbs up.“

“The most friendly staff!! The food was amazing. Loved the French toast.“

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

“The owner was very friendly, helpful, and her whole countenance just glowed when she smiled! You could tell she loved her business, customers, and her food. I’m not sure why others thought this place was not up to snuff. As a family with two small children, we would definitely come back!“

“I genuinely can’t decide what was better, Jade or the California Grilled Chicken Sandwich. Jade was an absolute ANGEL, the type of waitress that makes you want to come back even when the food isn’t all that good, but thankfully that’s not a concern here because that sandwich? Oh my god. Everything about it was perfect. The bacon was actually crispy, the chicken was ridiculously flavorful, and the whole thing was so good I was halfway through it before I even realized how fast I was eating. Zero complaints, zero notes. 10/10 Jade & 10/10 CGCS.“

“The best waitress (service) staff in town - excellent food - wonderful atmosphere!!!“

“Great atmosphere and peaceful. Let’s have a cup and visit. Great views“

“We are from out of town and needed a real tasting coffee. We visited Sequoia National Park and tried a local coffee shops and thinking it should be reallll good since it’s a tourist destination but we’re pretty disappointed😭
But I’m still in search of a real good cup of coffee and I have to say driving past to Bakersfield we have to give this city a try😂
Thank you to George/Jorge from 502 Cafe!
When I asked for a house made syrup he was gracious enough to share their chai syrup that actually paired perfectly with my flat white (it wasn’t on the menu but Jorge was so kind to make me one). Jorge! you need to add this to your menu because it was really good!!!
My daughter ordered the Dulce de Leche and she said that it was good too. Also the presentation of the Dulce de Leche is pretty appetizing!
Thank you Jorge and the to the other guy who was helping him♥
I will definitely come back if we’re in the area again someday 😎“

“We ordered a custom two tier wedding cake from Sugar Twist. They delivered it safely on time to our venue. It was absolutely beautiful and looked exactly like the inspo photos I had provided. It was also the most delicious cake I’ve ever tasted. It was moist and perfect and everything I could’ve asked for. All of our guests said the same thing and raved about this cake. We can’t wait to order more on our anniversary!“

“Terrible service, the woman who attended me didn't even pay attention to me, I paid 10dlls for four donuts and it's not bad, the bad thing is that I didn't accommodate the donuts and they all arrived crushed, the donuts are excellent but the service is very bad!“

“Chili verde omelette 🔥🔥🔥🔥“

“I am so fortunate to live nearby the Arizona Cafe, some of the best and most consistent menudo in town and personally the one restaurant I have been able to count on for good, simple menudo that is pretty close to what my abuelito used to make. Over 20 years it’s been the same simple indulgence that I have firmly come to know as a staple in my life. Really appreciate the simple food and the simple service even on busy Sunday brunch days. Thanks for being a cornerstone and my go to menudo spot since I was a kid. With or without a hangover, it’s very good.“

“An iconic Bakersfield coffee shop. All local not corporate. Ms Jaydan is the ultimate server.“

“Food is always amazing! Staff is super friendly and attentive!“

“Between the best coffee and the barista Experience no wonder good coffee is sexy!!“

“Amazing food! Love the service and Chef Denweed! Thank you for my Birthday Bread Pudding 😋“

“I absolutely love this spot! The ice lattes, hot chocolate, and strawberry matchas are to die for. Mokhamena is very chill, and great for studying or hanging out with friends. The bathrooms are clean and theres a self-serve station for water.

The only reason I don't give it full five stars is because of two things: service and the bagels. The people are very kind, but sometimes they forget the order, and other times they don't follow through when you change details on an order. However, they have always fixed the issue! As for the bagels, they do not come as pictured. It was my first time ordering the bagel and it looked nothing like the advertised product. I ordered the Egg and Tomato Bagel, but there was no seasonings or mint on it. I could have made this at home. I'm still willing to give it a second try, though, because this place is very good.“

“The staff are friendly. The food is great. It gets packed on weekends because the food is that good. Downside?- they close at 2:00pm“

“Food is delicious and the serving are tremendous! I know what I’m having for dinner 😊“

“My AI guided me here I said it's absolutely the best deal for $15 and would agree that it's comparable to old River grill of the area very nice very clean should I pay at the counter with the gas station is I don't know just a suggestion that's coming“

“I’m proudly recommend this 5⭐️the Waldorf,pastramis,etc from sandwiches to soups,salads and desserts 🍮 are truly amazing 😻 I won’t stop coming back here 👍😻😻“
