This place is sick. The coffee is great, The atmosphere is great, they were playing drum and bass, and the bathroom has a real sink. They trust us to turn it off ourselves and everything

Looked up this place online because I’m new in town and it did not disappoint. The area is really nice, there is A LOT of parking in their own lot, they have outdoor and indoor seating and the staff are friendly. Great place to sit and study, the cappuccino was really good. Would for sure go back.

Service is great and love the vibe. First time I went i had a stale waffle buut the matcha latte made up for it cause it was the best I ever had! Second time I got the egg feta spinach breakfast burrito, delicious just wish they had salsa or something to give it a bit more flavor. In all I'd go again.

Great food options with a tremendous diversity. They do it all. And it's fresh & healthy! Loved it! Lovely staff and great ambiente as well! <3

Wow! Very fortunate to find this gem as we passed through the city. Had this been in remotely close to where we live we’d be regulars. Cannot wait to eat here again. Food was spectacular (tried the Greek Eggs and schnitzel salad, both perfect and made with fresh ingredients), was beautifully presented, the service was most friendly, and decor is lovely and well thought through. Really can’t point out one thing we didn’t love about this place. Very well done

Was just passing through town and I’m really glad this is the spot I picked to stop at. Super cool vibe with a mix of good indoor and outdoor spaces. Lots of parking, really nice aesthetic, and just generally a cool but friendly vibe from the staff. Coffee was great and so was the steak sandwich. All the food options seemed awesome!

This is a great, cute Cafe we found on a road trip. The drinks are great! And their sandwiches were very very tasty. I had their mushroom sandwich and a matcha. I also tried their pumpkin pie. Yumm. I liked the whole style and vibes of this place.

Really great spot! Especially if you are traveling through. Easy access to parking lot, wide variety of food & drink and seating options. I had the Mocha and it was a lovely dark, dry, mildly sweet chocolate. Perfect balance! The egg bagel sandwich was great too.

Very chill vibe and beautiful presentation! We arrived at 11 am on Memorial Sunday and the cafe was almost empty. Plenty of free street parking and also a parking lot. There is ample space in the front and backyards. Food was ok but it felt good staying here. I love their music selection!

A Charming Stopover: Cafe Smitten in Bakersfield Location: 909 18th St, Bakersfield, CA Nestled in the heart of Bakersfield, Cafe Smitten exudes a charming, hippie-inspired vibe that's sure to win over any visitor. Here's why this cozy cafe left a lasting impression on me: As I pulled into the parking lot, I couldn't help but admire the eclectic exterior of Cafe Smitten. Once inside, the warm and inviting atmosphere immediately enveloped me, with a laid-back ambiance that felt like a breath of fresh air. The menu offered a delightful array of options, ranging from artisanal coffee creations to wholesome breakfast and lunch items. I opted for a classic latte and a hearty sandwich, both of which exceeded my expectations in terms of flavor and quality. One of the highlights of Cafe Smitten was the ample seating options available, from cozy indoor tables to spacious outdoor patio seating. Whether you're looking to catch up with friends over coffee or simply enjoy a moment of solitude, there's a spot for everyone to relax and unwind. Despite its unassuming appearance, Cafe Smitten boasts a level of hospitality and attention to detail that sets it apart from other cafes in the area.

In conclusion, Cafe Smitten is a hidden gem in Bakersfield that's well worth a visit.

I think I found my new favorite breakfast spot! My friend recommended this place and I am only sad that I just found out about this yummy place! The food is delish, service is excellent, and great atmosphere. Get the Moroccan eggs. I can’t wait to try everything on the menu!

I’m from out of town so this was my second experience here and it was amazing! Beautiful brunch food items and wonderful pour over coffees! I got the mushroom omelette and my husband got the Moroccan eggs. Both beautifully cooked, delicious, and aesthetically pleasing as well. Our daughters shared the toast flight. Didn’t leave a morsel on the plate so that’s saying a lot! The counter culture coffee they used was well balanced and bright. Very delicious. The space is amazing with lots of places to sit and study, work, or chat. I highly recommend this place if you’re in Bakersfield!

Nice setup with quite a bit of seating. Wifi for people who want to get some food or beverages and maybe work on some school work. Food was good and prices were reasonable. It can get very busy very quickly here. Plenty of parking though right out front on the street or in the parking lot on the side of the building. Customer service was good. Will go back again sometime soon.

Searching for a great breakfast spot and loved the menu options. Ordered the egg & cheese bagel and the breakfast burrito. The bagel was good but on the basic side. The breakfast burrito was delicious though! Would love to come back and try the Moroccan eggs.

I have to say this place has really improved on the quality of coffee, customer service and atmosphere. I had a slice of brownie pie and a Cortado. The brownie pie was good and the Cortado was delicious. Good job guys

3/5 for the breakfast bagel and 3.5/5 for the nitro cold brew. The bagel and egg was stale. It didn’t have any taste, felt like I was chewing nothing. Presentation was good though. Maybe it was a bad batch but definitely didn’t make my Sunday morning any better. Staff was friendly and prices were reasonable.

Cute cafe to work from. WiFi was great! However expect to sit close to others in the interior. We order a shakshuka, mint lemonade, and a coffee scone. Shashouka was good but wish it had two more slices of bread to accompany it. Wish I read the mint lemonade description more carefully! I thought it would've been like a mint infused lemonade but it's literally just regular lemonade with mint leaves as garnish. We tried to smash the mint leaves a bit to provide a mint taste but it barely made a difference :/ - it's still a refreshing drink though! The coffee scone was delicious! Coffee flavoring really stood out
