Smart and trendy cafe. Light and fast food. Delicious almond shake.
Cafe Smitten is my new favorite breakfast spot in Bakersfield. Everything on the menu looked amazing and it was hard selecting. I ordered the savory waffles and they were awesome. Thanks!
Not so smitten. I wasn't impressed specially by the high price's
Food ingredients are not well balanced at all. My breakfast burrito had way too many bell peppers. I ordered a dry cappuccino and asked for just foam, no milk, and got an espresso with a cup of warm milk. The music is wsy too loud. However, the employee that brought my food was very pleasant.
I love cafe smitten great customer service and the salads are delicious and try the lemonade with mint my mom get the tuna sandwich 🥪 it's good recommendations to dine or take out
Came here for the first time 2017 and is just as good as I remember.
Delicious food but please consider hiring friendly staff. This morning my waitress in the sleeve tattoos was very rude and ignored my question after bringing my diet coke. A few minutes later, the same waitress brought my avocado toast and ‘quickly’ walked away in a rude and condescending manner ignoring my comment on how lovely the day is. I don’t sense a good energy from staff in general even as i kindly got up and asked for Cholula hot sauce. The food keeps me coming back because it’s amazing & quality, but please consider giving the staff a training on the importance of being kind to customers or hire friendly staff who are ‘naturally’ kind and serve with a passion, instead of just for a paycheck. This place is hip but no so much the attitude of the staff. At the end of the day, ‘kindness’ can make a business much more attractive to customers just like Chick-fl-A. Thank you for reading my comment & God Bless.
Great patio with plants. Great food and fantastic coffee. Same owner as the Botanist.
Great food, coffee, and music. Really tasty pour over with counter culture beans. Friendly staff. A real gem.
Just passing through town, stumbled on this place, one of the best breakfasts I've had in a long time.
If you live in or ever find yourself passing through Bakersfield go here. Great food, coffee, and people. Since discovering it I have come here every time I head to the desert from the Bay.
I come here every week and it's always nice. We went with a big group recently and still the service was excellent and fast. I recommend the sweet waffles.
A nice "modern" cafe, tucked away in downtown. Definitely be back again.
The BEST FOOD EVER!! I got the waffle plate and it was the tastiest thing ever! I am not a big fan of whip cream but this one was light and not to strong. Everything mixed was the best. My family also enjoyed their food, said it was so good! We have never came here and it was a great first experience. It also had a calm environment which I loved. Plus it was pretty inexpensive, less inexpensive great quality food! Will definitely go back!
Above and beyond service. I spilled my coffee and went to get a towel to clean it up. Guy behind counter handed me a new cup and said don't worry about I got it covered.
Nice place, fast service, the atmosphere was comfortable with plenty options for indoor or outdoor seating..love it!
One of my favorite places to get Matcha. This last time I went it was raining and they had lot of roof leaks. I don’t recommend going during reading season. But definitely try the Moroccan breakfast!
Delicious food with friendly attentive service and a chill atmosphere. And the best coffee I've had in Bakersfield. Will definitely come back
I didn't get any food I think it's mostly vegan but the matcha latte was amazing and beautiful 😍
So far, the best coffee experience we've had in Bakersfield. The food and personnel match the high level of coffee crafting here. Totally awesome heated back patio. So worth going to Smitten!
