Hi Keona, we now operate out of an office building where we stock about 1000 titles, mostly current bestsellers and new releases, children's books, and local titles. We can order everything else, over 2 million titles and usually have them ready for… Read more

Faith Coffee Shop - Sugar Cookie Latte Golden hour iced

Finally made it to Faith Coffee Shop and it definitely lived up to the hype! The only thing I…read morewished for was a slightly friendlier and more enthusiastic host to guide me through the menu and explain all the fun coffee options But hey, maybe they were busy preparing for the storm, so no hard feelings! I quickly trusted my friend's recommendation and ordered the famous tiramisu latte and WOW... it was basically dessert in a cup! My usual coffee choice is a little stronger, but this was such a delicious treat and the perfect cozy first sip of the day. The atmosphere was honestly my favorite part. The second I walked in, I loved the uplifting Christian vibes. There was a joyful group of ladies laughing and chatting, and their energy completely filled the room with warmth and kindness. It felt welcoming, lively, and peaceful. Overall, such a sweet experience and definitely a fun little Bakersfield coffee stop I'd come back to!

I can't say enough about this cute faith based coffee shop! Because it's tucked off the main road,…read moreI don't think many realize it's here. As my Book Club was looking for a coffee shop to get together to do vision boards, I thought of it based off of my daughter's recommendation. She and her friends have come here to study, and the vibe is perfect for it! Welcoming staff, delicious coffee (hot and cold) and juices, rotating bakery items, a cute gift shop/a book store right next door, a prayer wall, and lots of different and comfortable seating arrangements make this coffee shop one that you have to visit. After spending the morning doing vision boards here with the girls, several indicated that this will become their "go to" from now on. Highly recommend!

I love this store because there's so many things to look at. There's something for (almost)…read moreeveryone. The woman up front was very kind and helpful. She helped me grab a petticoat from the wall and showed me to their little dressing room even though it was close to closing! Most places would be annoyed but she was extremely patient and sweet with me. While I was shopping around there were some loud people messing around and it sounded like they dropped something. If you go into an antique store, please be respectful and mindful that you're surrounded by old and valuable items, most importantly, items that don't belong to you. This may be where some people are getting a "rude attitude" because I'm Mexican, and didn't sense any of the racism or rudeness that people talk about in these reviews. I also try to be very respectful when entering a store of any kind. Expect the same treatment and attitude that you give out.

Just went in for a visit today, first time and so disappointed. I was excited to explore and look…read morefor some cool finds. Sadly it was ruined by one of the workers. As my boyfriend and I were browsing through their selection we decided to stop to take a picture at a mirror near one of their sections. I don't know if the employee knew how loud she was but we clearly heard her comment, "Every time people pass by that mirror they stop to take a picture. It's stupid. It's dumb." It dampened our moods completely. We didn't get to even finish looking at the front of the store. We put the item we had in our hand back in their place and left. Really saddened about the experience and the fact that we couldn't enjoy the rest of the store as we could see they had lots of variety and the prices seemed reasonable from what we did see. Here are some of the pictures we managed to take before leaving. Update: upon further review a lot of recent reviews seem to be about the same women with the same common factor. She only provides terrible atmosphere and service to people of color. Which is very disappointing to see that so many customers come excited to come and explore to only leave feeling worse due to something we can't change. Especially in this climate and day of age, it's saddening to see such hate being spread.
