Customer service was just okay, I asked if they had a white chocolate mocha and instead of suggesting another drink she said "no." If I had a business I would train my employees to suggest alternatives to increase my profit and keep my customers happy. The food was pretty good, and the little cafe was very cute. I love that there was plenty of parking, and it was well decorated. The outside patio was definitely a plus. read more

Oh my. I was passing by Bakersfield and was looking for a place that had Matcha and found this one. At first, I wasn't aware that it was sort of like a café/restaurant set up so that made me a little nervous, but the Matcha ended up being really good! I got a Matcha latte with rose syrup. The second thing I ordered was an almond banana toast. I didn't get to open my box before I left, but as soon as I opened it, I was disappointed because it was small and it was eight dollars! I also thought that it was on a hard sourdough bread or something of that nature because it looked really toasty. Like the kind of toasty that you might break a tooth on. Let me tell you, though, I quickly changed my mind when I took the first bite. IT WAS TOTALLY WORTH THOSE EIGHT DOLLARS!! That toast was the best toast I've ever had! And the bread wasn't what I expected. It was sort of like on a raspberry or blueberry or raisin loaf. Still not sure but it was not dry or too toasty at all! Anyways, you guys have to try it! I'm going to have to come back just for that. read more

We enjoyed our iced matcha latte, iced Americano, and mint lemonade in their back patio. We only had time for a quick bite to eat, so we opted for their breakfast burrito, which was filled with feta cheese, savory, crispy potatoes, scrambled eggs, avocado, and spinach. It seemed healthier than your typical breakfast burrito and was delicious, too! read more

This place has an excellent vibe and a really nice outdoor patio. It's super dog-friendly as well. The breakfast burrito and drinks were both really good and definitely worth coming back for. read more

I hosted a bridal shower on the patio last month and was so impressed! We loved the attentiveness of the owner and staff when planning and executing the event. Stassie gave us the perfect balance of freedom and guidance. Food was delicious, set up and clean up was a breeze, and all of our guests were so pleased! read more

It's been awhile since I've eaten at Cafe Smitten! Glad I was able to bring my family in this time from brunch. It was super packed and outside seating wasn't an option due to the small amount of rain that occurred. However, we were to snag a couple seats near the counter which was nice! I got an iced matcha latte with nutella + hazelnut toast and my brother got an iced mocha with steak wrap and a salad on the side. The iced matcha latte was good but the matcha was mild tasting and I'm used to stronger matcha. The toast was really good, I definitely would get it again. My brother liked the iced mocha as well as the steak wrap! read more

Very first time here, and I will be returning! The prices are a bit on the pricey side but totally worth it. The food is fresh, healthy and tastes amazing! I was obsessed with my bowl, and it was a hefty amount! MATCHA LATTE really won me over, it was so earthly and so sweet. I couldn't get enough of it. We came by around 8am and it was already full of life! The workers are nice and patient with you. They have music but it's not too loud, some people are working, others are just catching up. You sit yourself and order, then they bring it to you. read more

It's busy busy for Saturday lunch. Stopped by on our way to Sedona. Vegan portobello sandwich: 3 stars. Kudos for having a vegan sandwich. Loved the sprouts and mushroom. Just needed a little salt. Couldn't taste the vegan pesto too much. Bread was crispy. It was just a little bland for me. Could be my taste buds. Steak wrap: 3.5 stars. had plenty of flavors for me. However hubby who ate most of it thought it was a bit too greasy. Music was good. Pie holes: comes in variety of flavor. They ran out of the blueberry. So got strawberry, lemon, caramel apple. 3 stars. Fillings were good but too much pie crust for me. They had matcha pie so of course i had to get it. 5 stars. It tastes like my Royce matcha chocolate. Yummmmmm read more

I love this cafe! It's so cute and is the perfect little spot to hang out or grab food. My friend took me here for brunch on a Saturday morning. We ordered and found a table right away, so there was minimal wait. There's indoor and outdoor seating, but we opted to sit outside because they had a cute backyard vibe. There's heater lamps outside too, so being chilly wasn't an issue. I ordered a hot chai latte with oat milk and the Moroccan eggs. They food came out quick, and it was delicious. I really like both items that I ordered and the portions were great! I was really content and satisfied after the meal. There's a parking lot dedicated to this cafe so parking isn't an issue. Overall, love this place and would be coming back whenever I'm in town! read more

Consistently delicious matcha, coffee, and food. A go to downtown spot. I wish it were open later like dagnys.

Well, not only did I like this place but I was super happy to see this kind of a restaurant in Bakersfield. We had a late breakfast on our way out of town, sat outside with the dog in the sunshine and enjoyed ourselves. Small menu but nicely inventive food. I had a mushroom omelette with cheddar served with tomato and cucumber salad. My husband had baked Greek eggs that had halloumi cheese poached eggs tahini was very good. The cappuccino was gorgeously made. Jasmine tea that was looseleaf. Very happy with this spot and if I return to Bakersfield anytime soon, I will definitely come again. The baked goods look delicious. While the staff look like cool hipsters, the clientele ranged from much older retirees, to young people on their computers, to families. read more

Few places in Bakersfield feel as chic and trendy as Cafe Smitten! They have two locations, but this cute one is located Downtown. There's plenty of street parking, but expect a wait once inside as this place is popping! Even on a weekday morning, the inside was completely full and there was a line to order. You order at the counter for either dine in or take out. You order both food and drinks from the same place. I just got a matcha latte, which was great, but they have some tasty food items! They also carry pies from the pie hole and they had a fun matcha pie in season! I love Cafe Smitten and think it's a great coffee shop slash brunch spot to give Bakersfield a little something something! read more

I love this spot! I can't brag enough about the freshness or how delicious everything is. I usually have a day during the week that I go vegan and their quinoa bowl is perfect for that!

Love this place! Routinely stop by when in town for court. They're open early (6a) and serve excellent coffee. The breakfast keeps me coming back especially the Moroccan eggs and Greek eggs. There's plenty of space to spread out both inside and outside. There's a serene patio in back. Even their restrooms are something to write home about because they're clean, airy, and eco friendly. Plenty of free parking in their lot or on the street. Did I mention free WiFi? read more

Food is always amazing. Everything is delicious. The people who work there are very prompt and brought everything out even extras

Ordered their Moroccan eggs, which is two poached eggs bath in tomato sauce. If you like tomato based sauce, you'll like the flavor of this combination...sweet, tangy, tart, garlicky...use the accompanied sourdough slice to scope up a little sauce and some eggs...it's really delicious. I ended the meal with their Earl Grey Tea pie, which had a great balance of the right amount of sweetness and a tea flavor that was not overpowering...left me wanting more! They also have many other flavors of pie that I'm dying to try next time! read more

Staff is incredibly rude. It's as if you're burdening them when trying to place an order. Strange attitude to have when people are coming in to the business with their hard earned money. Female owner isn't any better. read more

Sorry yelpers , but based on our lunch today this is definitely not a 4.5 star establishment . More of a 3 star and here's why : We ordered 3 things to share - 1) quinoa salad - great fresh ingredients, everything was working out when it comes to taste - but why serve it in a tiny plate ? We tried mixing the ingredients about a 1/3 of the salad spilled off the plate . 2) hummus plate - inedible . Plain and simple . Tasted like something that came out of a Sabra hummus can , plus a ton of salt . Very disappointing 3) halumi Cheese sandwich - very good . Best dish in the our lunch We also got an americano which was very watery with a fate scent of coffee ...not good Perhaps we didn't order their signature dishes , perhaps they had a bad day at the kitchen ...bottom line , very disappointing read more

Convenient location with parking lot. Outside cafe areas, one which allowed for dogs, the other had headlamps and a fire pit. Cute ambience. Small but good menu. I liked the Moroccan Eggs- two poached eggs in a spiced tomato stew. I liked the avocado and mushroom sandwich- not quite a full meal, but an excellent snack. The mixed berry crumble was good- slightly more on the sweet side. The lemon cranberry chews pie was good too- tasted like a lemon bar with cranberry preserves. Cafe drinks were all excellent if a tad on the sweet side. I'd definitely go back! read more

A nice healthy breakfast was what we wanted, and we found it at Cafe Smitten. What we loved: the tomato bisque and the quinoa salad were lovely, and the earl gray cream pie -- while not healthy, was absolutely delicious. What could have been better: I need to stop ordering avocado toast in restaurants. While it was well executed--the toast and the egg were cooked perfectly--I want a bit more avocado, especially for the price point. read more

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 read more
