    Protein Box. Boiled eggs, grapes, cheese, turkey, and hummus with veggies. So good and so filling too!

    There is something about saving time that makes things better! Qwik Cafe, for example, makes lunch super quick and easy when you're in a pinch for time! It really, truly IS quick! From snacks (chocolate almonds, trail mix, etc) to desserts (think lemon bars, cake, and brownies). Sandwiches (hot or cold) to salads and half sandwich/half salad lite lunches. Even fruit or protein platters and other sides are available a la cart! There are options a plenty and everything is fresh and appetizing. I've had many options from here after the gym and the service (by service I mean grabbing your dressing and charging you) is as quick and friendly as the food is fresh and tasty. The sandwich options are limited but the quick factor is what makes (and names) this place. Literally grab, pay, and go. If you decide fairly quickly, you should be out in one or two minutes, tops! Definitely worth a stop if you're in a hurry.

    Not once in the 20 some odd years of working have I worked in downtown Bakersfield, but that changed this year and with that change came new food spots to conquer. One spot that is definitely one of my go to spots to grab a quick bite is Qwik Café. While I may have an hour for lunch, I don't want to be hanging out in the streets of downtown, I rather eat and relax with a small nap if possible. What I like most about this spot is how quickly things move, you jump in line, grab the food you want and the cashier is efficient in checking you out to be on your merry way. Their offering is not huge but there is a good variety and something for anyone, at least I think so. All sandwiches are cold but some of them can be warmed up like their Turkey Melt. My favorites have been the Turkey Bacon, Tuna Sandwich and their Cobb Salad. While they are quick bites, they are definitely not small portioned unless you opt for the half sandwich, half salad combo but even with that, it seems like a full meal and more. They have Zappo chips, fruit medley's, some desserts and even soup of the day and they are owned/operated by Sequoia Sandwich so you know the quality of them are excellent. As I mentioned previously one of my faves is the Cobb Salad, they jam pack that salad with bacon bits, ham, turkey and fresh veggies and you can't forget about the chopped boiled eggs, that completes it. They do offer several dressings but I only go for Thousand Island so I couldn't tell you exactly what they offer other than ranch and balsalmic. If you are in the downtown area, possibly serving on Jury Duty (LOL), Qwik Café is just a few minutes away with a brisk walk, you don't have to worry about ordering, you and can in and out within 5 minutes or less, all depends if you make fast decisions and be on your way back to enjoy that delicious sandwich, soup and/or salad!

    Store front parking to get you in and out.

    I stopped in here on opening day and was pleasantly surprised with this newest offering from the Sequoia sandwich family. The concept is simple: decent food fast, with hours that reflect the midday lunch crowd. You'll find no made to order items here, just pre-package foods prepared each day in the Sequoia kitchen. Refrigerated cases contain a selection of salads, sandwiches, wraps, and desserts. There isn't any set menu, as they're hoping to rotate offerings. While most items are cold, you can pick up the daily soup. If you're in a hurry, this will likely be one of your new favorite options. Prices are on par with the next door sandwich shop (about $7-8/sandwich). Side salads and chips are available for pick-up at an extra charge. If you're jonesing for something sweeter, they have slices of cheesecake or their big as your head cookies as well. Seating is limited to three tables out front, keeping in line with the concept of get in, get out. Dedicated parking for patrons is also available to maximize efficiency, though I imagine using their sister sandwich shop's dedicated lot across the street would be fine too. Overall, a great new addition to the downtown lunch scene, and a welcome option for those of us on extremely limited schedules.

    Horrible Sandwich!

    I was in Bakersfield, which is a rare occurrence, and I stopped by to eat at this place. I love a…read moregood barbecue, but I had low expectations for this one. I guess because it's a sports bar restaurant, and it's in Bakersfield. I got the shock of my life. It turned out, this was the best barbecue food I ever had. Not only that, but it's very affordable. I would say a bargain. I didn't have to spend 100+ dollars for 2 persons, like a lot of so called high quality barbecue restaurants. The briskets and ribs were amazing. Delicious, flavorful, and melts in your mouth. Sides were also delicious. The service was good too. You just go up and get your order. It took a little time, but the staff is helpful and friendly. I'll be back here again, the next time I'm in Bakersfield. Maybe I'll visit the Buck Owen's museum. Bakersfield is truly the Texas of California, although I've only been to El Paso, Texas.

    My first time at Firestone and I gotta say this place is spacious, the employees at the register…read more were very helpful and professional. I really enjoy my ribs they were tender and in my opinion they didn't need the sauce. I enjoyed how spacious the place is and the giants fan they have keep the place cool during this hot weather. Was just passing by for a dinner meal, and I was very happy. If I could give one recommendation maybe smoke those ribs a bit more to be a bit more tender. Definitely will be back for that tri tip.

    I came here trying to currently support only local businesses here in Bakersfield in 2026 and…read moreshowed up here on a recommendation from Howie's Micheladas--another amazing local business we should all support--and Locale absolutely delivered! ​The food was incredible, everything we ordered based upon Jasmine the waitress' recommendations rocked!!!! The Western Burger was the burger was cooked rare to my liking the onion rings were big And flavorful by themselves,the cheese was absolutely some of sharpest Cheddar I've had at a restaurant, overall, one of the best burgers I've had in the valley, and paired perfectly with the sweet potato fries, which were very good but a little soft for my liking maybe next time I'll ask for them a little crispier. We also tried the loaded tuna croissant and the pastrami ,salad combo which my wife raved about both stating that the dehydrated brussel sprouts in the salad was something she wanted me to prepare at home for her my daughter liked the tuna salad but decided to take out some of the Cranberries which she said were absolutely fresh as they were very tart, both entrees were extremely tasty and prepared with super fresh ingredients. ​Lastly, shout out to Jasmine, shes an absolute gem of a person. Even though the restaurant was busy inside, she was incredibly attentive, professional, and had the warmest attitude. She nailed the suggestions made sure absolutely everything came out perfectly without missing a beat. this place has great vibes, great cooks who prepare great food, and great service. We will definitely be back!

This local gem has been serving our community for more than 11 years. Due the traumatic and unfortunate events of yesterday, our local community has been shaken up. Locale's response to its community is nothing short of outstanding. We appreciate your help and generous response to affected residents. I was grateful to see FBI agents at the restaurant. I was able to thank them for their courage and service in bringing the situation to a resolution. Grateful to have a safe space to work and enjoy a complimentary meal. The food was great and the service was impeccable. The empathy from staff is truly commendable. I appreciate the staff and proprietors of Locale Farm to Table.

    Our first time visiting, we were immediately greeted and sat at a booth. Elijah was our waiter and…read morehis service was amazing. Very friendly, he gave several recommendations, and was very patient as we reviewed the menus. He checked in regularly. Now the food... we had the bacon on bacon, ordered by the bacon lover, (my husband) and he gave it a 10/10. I enjoyed it too! We had the vodka pasta and shared it, and that was amazing, the pasta was served al dente and was perfect. The chicken was grilled perfectly and tender. We left room for dessert and ordered the carrot cake. I'm a carrot cake snob so I was already setting myself up for disappointment, It did not disappoint. Very moist, the cream cheese icing was light and tasty. Every other bite had a surprising crunch. 10/10 Drinks- I had the hibiscus muse. Very tasty and refreshing. The hubby had whistle pig old fashioned. Solid drink! He doesn't venture out much and was pleased with the entire experience. Would visit again! From him that's saying a lot! A great review for food is one thing but when you get great, tasty food and exceptional service, that's rare and deserves a review. Thank you centro cali brewing and Elijah!

    Here on a Saturday afternoon. It wasn't busy which was nice…read more Our party included 7 people and our waitress was on point with service. Here are the dishes we ordered; 1. Spicy Potato Pearls appetizer. This dish was really good and it consisted of 8 spicy potato pearls, perfect for sharing. I would describe as seasoned mashed potatoes, rolled into a ball shape and coated with a panko and deep fried and topped with finely grated Parmesan cheese. It's served with a side of cilantro aioli and a lemon wedge I would definitely order this again. 8/10 2. Breaded chicken over Garlic Fettuccine Alfredo. The pasta had a nice garlic flavor and a rich creamy white Alfredo sauce. Chicken was cooked to perfection and flavorful. One of my favorites 10/10 NOTE: all pastas are made in-house 3. Cali Lasagna : Wagyu beef bolognese, pomodoro sauce, Parmesan and basil oil. Lasagna was piping hot and very good. It had dollops of ricotta cheese on top. 9/10 4. Fried Lasagna: chef special. OMG!! This was my absolute favorite and hopefully becomes a regular menu option. Lasagna rolls that have been breaded and deep fried. 10/10 5. Minestrone soup: very flavorful and nice chunks of veggies. Served piping hot. 10/10 6. Four Cheeses & Figs Pizza: white sauce, mozzarella, provolone, goat cheese, blue cheese and fig compote and topped with arugula 10/10 7. Cali Pizza: San Marzano tomato sauce, mozzarella, Italian sausage, salami and topped with hot honey & sliced Fresno chiles 9/10 (pizza was a bit greasy) NOTE: all pizza doughs are made in-house. 8. Fish & Chips (chef special): battered in a squid ink batter and fried to perfection. Served with French fries & tartar sauce. 9. Prosciutto Arugula Pizza: San Marzano tomato sauce, mozzarella, prosciutto, arugula, apple slices and topped with a balsamic reduction 8/10 (a bit on the salty side) 10. Creamy Pesto & Artichokes Pasta: pesto sauce, penne pasta, artichokes, asparagus, arugula and Parmesan 10/10 11. Tiramisu: 10/10 Cocktails: 1. Cucumber Margarita nice cucumber taste not overly sweet 10/10 2. Espresso Martini: it was good but not outstanding. The foam should have been frother. 7/10 Overall food was fantastic and our waitress was on-point with our orders. Parking is free, however, it can be challenging during peak hours. The ambiance is very laidback and a chill vibe. They also have an outdoor patio if you prefer to dine outdoors. Restrooms were very clean and fully stocked.
