I've gone here a few times now. I've eaten here twice and I've gotten to go orders. And the food is absolutely delicious!!!! Mouthwateringly good seriously!!!! I've tried a few of their stuff and I haven't eaten anything that wasn't just absolutely amazing/mind-blowing! The food isn't expensive. But it gets busy here which is why I've ordered to go a few times. If you want affordable food that'll fill you up and is also extremely tasty. You definitely need to go here. I don't have pictures of my orders because I usually forget to take pictures. Just be warned it's a local spot and it gets busy. So try to go early and take a to go order after you eat what you're eating at the restaurant. You won't regret!!!! I know I'm going to be going back and taking a to go order before I go home the next time I do go. read more

We eat at Knotty Pine frequently and have never had a bad experience. Their food is amazing. I absolutely love their omelettes. Yum.

After hearing how great this place is I finally decided to give it a try. I took some family from out of town figuring it would be nice to go somewhere I've never been so we could all be surprised. My first impression was that it was much bigger than it looked from outside. I liked the log cabin feel of the restaurant and the staff were friendly when we walked in. We were quickly seated in a booth by the restrooms in the back. This place reminded me of how Pappys use to be, clean! I liked the ambiance of the restaurant and all the vintage pictures and items. It made me feel like I was thrifting. After perusing the menu, I decided to try the California omelet with a pancake and country potatoes on the side. The omelet was good but I did not like the potatoes. I always order country potatoes over hash browns because I don't like when the hash browns aren't cooked in the middle. I like my potatoes cooked all the way through and when I ordered them I asked the server to make sure the bell peppers and onions were cooked well but I guess I also should have mentioned to cook the potatoes. In her defense the veggies were cooked to perfection. The pancakes were tasteless and I only took a few bites. Overall this place is a distance away from me so I won't go out of my way to go but if I'm in the area and I'm starving I guess I might try it again. read more

Knotty Pine Cafe is a must when visiting Bakersfield,CA. I loved the ambiance of house remade into a restaurant. You are transported to south when you come here.

They really treat you like family. This place is very busy, but the service is quick. Again, this is a destination restaurant stop. read more

Best biscuits and gravy in town!! Wonderful Breakfast! Fast service for how busy they are... I will be back soon!!!

Great food, great servers, great vibes! Parking isn't the greatest but don't let that deter you because the food is delish! My only complaint was my side of scrambled eggs (not pictured) that wasn't scrambled enough & tasted too oily. Fortunately, the chocolate chip pancakes made up for it. The other entrees we ordered were also delicious. The hollandaise sauce for the eggs Benedict were thick but flavorful and my brother killed the French toast. Overall, this might be our new breakfast place despite the far location. read more

So happy found Cope's Knotty Pine diner near the Bakersfield airport. Flew in from Denver and was hungry. Thank you Yelp for showing Copes Knotty Pine. My husband had Friday special of Fish, chips and clam chowder. We shared chili cheese fries as only can find in CA. I had a delicious taco salad. Highly recommend!!! read more

Copes is back to 5 stars with their great comfort food. The chicken fried steak, chicken fried chicken and ribeyes are made like they were on my first visit. Biscuits and gravy and hash-browns are cooked perfectly! I always loved the employees and servers, they are quality! The fluffy pancakes, the Eggs Benedict, Roast Beef and home made Reuben sandwiches have been perfect lately. The cobbler and french fries, so good! Their chili verde omelette is excellent! read more

Was very disappointed in my breakfast overall, ordered the Spanish omelette. Must of been a one-half egg omelette, never seen one so small, and maybe a teaspoon of salsa and ZERO CHEESE!!! It was small, I don't eat they much but walked away disappointed and hungry, but the small biscuit was good and coffee was tasty but not hot. Off day for copes I won't be going back, off to my other place TOASTED which is yummy read more

Absolutely loved it, large portions, fantastic Bacon, Biscuits & Gravy! Will return, i recommend it! read more

A classic breakfast destination- The staff is on it! You'll never run out of water or coffee with this crew on staff. Our server was very professional, efficient, and had a great sense of humour. I ordered 2 biscuits and gravy for the table as an appetiser and our server was kind enough to split on 2 plates. The biscuits were fluffy and very tasty. My buddy ordered a cheese burger and fries, I know it was good because he pounded it in a few minutes and looked stuffed. My chicken fried steak was crispy on the outside and the meat was tender. The only reason I'm not giving this place 5 stars you ask? I had to salt just about everything on the plate. I'm not sure if that's a bad thing, but I had to add a lot of salt to the gravy, fries, eggs, and hash browns. Some people like it that way, but I think the cooks should add a little bit of salt to remove the bland. This place is a local treasure and I think you should checkout out if you like traditional American diners. read more

Omgoodness this place is a literally slice of heaven. The food was so good. It is so small on the outside, I passed right by it. Once I realized where I was going, I noticed that I missed it because it had the parking lot FULL of work trucks. Now.....we KNOW it is gonna have some good food if it is PACKED on a Wednesday morning. Surprisingly it didn't take long to get a table. The food arrived quickly and man oh man.....it was so good. We will definitely come back next time we are in the area. read more

Always happy when I get to stop by for breakfast. Still my favorite place in Bakersfield for a good meal. The chicken fried steak is always delicious, the gravy is perfection.

Very cute little cafe. A great spot for breakfast or brunch! The food was great! It's so hard to find a cafe that actually makes country potatoes extra crispy. They cooked mine to perfection! A perfect crunch yet still soft on the inside! I was pleasantly surprised. The food is delicious and the service was just as great. I don't remember the waitress that helped us but she was a sweetheart!! Very accommodating! Also their biscuits were FAR from dry (another issue I run into at other cafes)! A very solid restaurant with a. Good atmosphere, good service, and great food! read more

The food is so good and I always good back, biscuits and gravy, hash browns, chicken fried is so good to

Went to Knotty Pine this morning for breakfast and was excited to try it again after many years. The service was amazing. Our waitress was super sweet and very attentive, making sure to refill coffee promptly and checking that everything was OK. The coffee was great and they had a sugar dispenser rather than the sugar packets which is always something I appreciate. The food was just OK. The gravy was good, but I wasn't a fan of the ridiculously large sausage patty, and my pancake was so rubbery on one side that I couldn't even cut through it with my fork. I've never had that issue with a pancake in my life. Very off-putting. Doubt I'll return. read more

Food was delicious, service was great overall the ambiance was excellent. As an old mad nothing better than a good coffee in the morning

I loved everything here!!!! Bathrooms super clean, menu was great. They have options for people who don't eat a lot but want a full breakfast. I got the option of "one egg, country potatoes and toast bread". Waitresses are great and super nice I would love to come back! read more

Probably the most home made tasting biscuits and gravy you can get in Bakersfield. Always good. And very consistent.

We needed someplace for brunch after my aunt's graveside service. I contacted Knotty Pine a few days beforehand & they were very accommodating & friendly, offering to put aside some tables for our group of nine. The place is small & you almost miss it but was obviously busy. We were seated almost immediately. The place was hopping with booths, tables & a counter. The interior was rustic & clean. Their menu was extensive and modestly priced. We ordered a variety of breakfast & lunch items and everyone enjoyed their meals. The portions are generous. I'm always eager to try a restaurants biscuits & gravy; the sausage gravy was very tasty although the biscuit was a bit on the dry side. Our server was friendly and provided quick service. We would definitely return. read more

Literally the fluffiest biscuits we've ever had!! Super clean and very cute inside. I don't think my coffee cup ever got less than 3/4 full. The service was awesome. Will definitely be stopping in again on our next road trip. read more

A group of friends and I were spending the weekend in Bakersfield and decided to meet up for breakfast at the Knotty Pine. Immediately upon arrival we loved the carved wooden bear and eagle on the roof--as well as the kind of "log cabin" decor inside. We told them we'd have 6 people but only 4 of us were already there, but they were able to seat us right away once they pushed two tables together. Two of our friends were running late, but our server happily put in their food order as soon as they were able to send it to us by text message! All the portions were huge. Really impressive. I ordered the ham steak, which was an old school-style slab of ham with the bone still in--and it took up my entire plate! On a separate plate I got eggs (scrambled with cheese) and breakfast potatoes and for my "toast" side, I got a pancake (which was crispy on top and soft and gooey in the middle and bottom, really good). Everybody loved their food and especially raved about the biscuits (which I myself didn't get to try). Our server rolled with the punches despite the restaurant being pretty busy on a Sunday morning, and she split our bill into 3 separate checks with no complaints. Homey, friendly, lots of character. Wonderful. read more

What an excellent place to enjoy lunch or brunch. This place has really friendly staff, amazing service, and large portion. They have one of the best fried green beans i've had. Their fish and chips are extremely flavorful and crispy. The batter was crunch and not too dense. The fish was tender and juicy. Finally, their chilis cheese fries were amazing too. Staff couldn't be more friendly and attentive. read more
