What can I say? Soooo glad we stopped here at The Botanist for lunch today on our way to Paso…read moreRobles. My husband commented that it made him want to move to Bakersfield which made our server Emily laugh. Limited parking in back and some street parking. We walked in without a reservation at 11:15 on a Friday and were the first customers of the day. Great decor, dim lighting, vintage looking furniture which does not sacrifice comfort for artistry. Our cocktails and meals were spectacular: Botanist Fashioned: 5/5-the brown sugar cinnamon syrup added a spicy bite to each sip which was unexpected and fun. Watermelon Sugar High:4/5-refreshing with watermelon juice freshly made in house and an ice cube with mint frozen in it. Seared cauliflower: 4/5-great appetizer for 2. The crispy chicken sandwich and the Botanist smash burger:5/5-Both had super flavorful pickles and toasted buns which always add a lovely crunch to each bite. If you're ever in Bakersfield and are at least 21, this place is well worth it! We'll hopefully be back someday. Highly recommend!

It's a little fast food joint on the side of the road that is plain and simple. When we stepped inside, they were quick to attend to us. Seating options are very limited, so you might be better off taking it to-go. Luckily, there was a table available for us and we sat inside. My burger tasted fresh and was perfectly cooked! Now the best part, the zucchini fries! I loved their zucchini fries. They're some of the best I've had. Really enjoyed my experience here!

I've had others smash burgers, but this burger had a nice crispiness to it and wasn't overly greasy! I hate overly greasy smash burgers. The fries also had a nice crunch to it.

We decided to download their app and order thru them directly. They couldn't find their drivers or they couldn't get a handle on them. Gave us a really bad taste. The food sounded good. But we will never know. Shame. Shame on us too for getting it delivered instead of going in. Hopefully I will get my refund. I attached a snapshot of what I wrote on their app. Good luck to them.‍ maybe we will give it a shot again... in a few months. But we will go in next time. ‍ 1) fix your phone numbers please. 2) pick better drivers/or don't use 3rd party drivers. Cuz they were bad.

I rave about this place to everyone I know, and encourage my people to stop here if they're taking a road trip to Vegas or LA from the bay. I finally tried the milkshakes this time around. The banana was ok, the pineapple was better. I like that it's not hella artificial. I love that they use real fruit bits. I'm not a huge fan of crinkle cut fries usually, but I like theirs. Why? Because they actually fry the fries to a crisp and then they're well seasoned. Yum. Every time I've come through, the girls working have always been really nice. Customer service is on point. I usually hit the drive thru and then park to eat. It's definitely a good place to people watch.. but I keep my doors locked lol. There's always a lot of movement on the street...

A Delicious Thank You to Teachers!…read more What an incredibly thoughtful way to give back to the community! One of our teachers at school entered a drawing for a free catered lunch from Locale Farm to Table, and we were so lucky to win! The drawing was the owner Heather's way of giving back and showing her appreciation for teachers. She was especially touched by our teacher's story, which made the win feel even more meaningful. Many of us who work at the school already dine at Locale and absolutely love the food, so we knew we were in for a treat. Heather brought some of their most popular dishes, including a hot honey goat cheese spread with Pyrenees bread, roasted butternut squash and Brussels sprouts, a fresh garden salad, and a chocolate and strawberry pastry for dessert. Everything was absolutely delicious! What really stood out, though, was how much thought Heather put into making sure everyone could enjoy the meal. She heard that we had some vegetarians among us and went above and beyond by preparing additional dishes without bacon so everyone had plenty to eat. That extra touch meant so much and really showed how genuinely caring and thoughtful she is. Having this incredible meal right before the first day of school was such a special treat. Teachers and school staff work incredibly hard, and feeling appreciated in such a generous way was truly wonderful. Thank you, Heather, for your generosity, kindness, and for supporting our school community! We are so grateful, and, of course, already looking forward to our next visit to Locale!

I also got the apple juice to drink which was nice and cold. I got an Arnold Palmer with watermelon Fresca and it was good too. Prices were pretty good, seeing it's a farm to table eatery in this economy. They were also very kind about our dietary restrictions. I have celiac disease and my sister is dairy free, so she substituted a few things on her burger.
