I ordered a couple beef burgers well done and they were raw.

Café Smitten has a way of being exactly what you need, no matter the moment. I’ve come here solo to unwind, with my partner for an intimate evening, with friends for a lively hangout, and with colleagues for business — and each time, it fits seamlessly.
The atmosphere is warm, modern, and versatile, with food and drinks that deliver both comfort and creativity. Whether it’s a perfectly made latte, a refreshing spritz, or something sweet and indulgent from their bakery, you can trust it’s crafted with care.
It’s rare to find a café that feels equally inviting for quiet reflection, romance, fun, and work — but Smitten pulls it off with ease. If you want a spot that truly adapts to your needs, this is it.

Whatever you do, do not have dinner here! I ordered the mushroom linguine and added salmon. Nonetheless the next morning I had food poisoning due to the tainted fish. When I call the next morning to inform them that they are serving a spoiled product, the shift leader did nothing but get defensive and claim it wasn't theirs.

Ordered the steak wrap, which I have ordered before, and is very good. However, I am very disappointed this time. The tortilla was rubbery, and when I bit in, I got a mouthful of tough rubbery tortilla. Also, they left off the aioli and cilantro, and the beef was kinda dry. Just make sure if you are bringing it that they made it correctly. Very disappointing to pay for something and not get what you wanted.

I walk in with my Mexican buddy, right? And boom—every pair of eyes in the room is locked on us like we’re freakin’ aliens or somethin’. Like they’ve never seen a dark-skinned guy and a Mexican walk into a place together before. What the hell is that about?

Really not bad at all. Just wish the breakfast food and coffee had a bit more variety. The quality was there for sure, the options were very limiting. Great service, friendly, and speedy.

I absolutely loved this place! There is so much attention to detail in the decor - the plants and lighting were both a nice touch. It's tasteful yet simple at the same time. There's plenty of seating indoors and outdoors. The food was delicious and coffee was top tier. They also have their own soft serve machine which is so cool to me. Would come here again.

Food is good and fresh and nice atmosphere. We had breakfast.
Smitten has been my go to place to get a latte & small meal. However about the last five or so times I've gone, the lattes taste different - watered down almost. And the food is usually always amazing but I just have such an issue with the prices. Love the atmosphere and vibes though!

It was okay

I usually love Smitten for their vibe and food! But recently have gotten poor service by their staff. I asked if there were any blended drink for my little brother and I was told “this isn’t Starbucks 🙄”. It could have kindly been suggested that they don’t have a drink like that. Not sure if I would come again - even though I love their sandwiches :/

Smitten has curated a whole! I met a friend here for lunch for the first time and loved it! The weather was perfect for eating outside. My steak wrap was a 10/10. I ordered the Lemonade+Fresh Mint and haven’t stopped thinking it! It tasted freshly made and the mint was a perfect balance. Smitten is the embodiment of the California vibe.

Best breakfast in Bakersfield.
