The burgers here are so good, really fresh and made with fresh ingredients. The buns are soft and the fries are super crispy with soft centers. It's busy here but they move quick, if you order multiple combos they'll separate them for you. It's convenience and good food that made me give them 5 stars! read more

Shake 'N Buns - Double cheese burger - Fast Food Near Me - Bakersfield, California

Actually good burgers and shakes, fresh and tasty, I definitely recommend. They will take care of you.

Good food, but can't say the same for beverages. Sometimes they're soda machine has a weird taste with the sodas. Maybe it's their soda lines from the syrup containers something there. Also the wait time is tremendously long kind of reminds me of in and out wait times plus the prices are pretty high. Their lunch specials for the hamburger it's over $10. I think that the cheese should be included for free at that price. It's good food just questioning if it's worth the money. Of course companies are going to use the excuse of the economy, but the price of food is skyrocket thanks to the fake inflation. These companies can afford to make their food a little bit more affordable. I will go there, especially for the double cheeseburger and the chili cheese fries read more

I don't know if they changed owners but the last time I ordered from here it cost me $45 for 3 cheeseburgers, a small fry, and a small pineapple shake. The hamburger patty was so thin I could have went to McDonalds for a better cheeseburger. I used to love coming to Shake N Buns because they had an actual cheeseburger and their small fry was enough for at least 2 people but now I'd rather buy my own hamburger patties and make them at home. read more

Their vegan burger is as good as it gets in town. I look forward to trying all their wings. My favorite thing about the burger is that they use impossible patties which are arguably the best manufactured patties. read more

I like the food here and the prices are reasonable, but this was my order of cheese curds. Paid just a little bit over five dollars for this. I wouldn't mind paying a little more but at least fill the bag. read more

Shake 'N Buns - Cheese curds. - Fast Food Near Me - Bakersfield, California

We went here back in February 2020 on our way to our weekend getaway at a cabin in Sequoia. We found that this places was affordable, decent food, and definitely better experience than other fast food chains. Overall, we enjoyed the experience, their fries and burgers. The only thing lacking was their chicken tenders. It was not the best we've had but im sure it's great for the kids. read more

Delicious! Everything was fresh the pastrami fries were on point, they don't use the nacho cheese they use real melted cheddar cheese, so depending what your preference is, it could be a good or bad thing. I also had the western burger which you can get in single or double , single was enough for me. It comes with bbq sauce Swiss and American cheese and onion rings, so bomb better then most of the fast food chains in town. Don't forget to order some cheese curds they're pretty good too. The people are nice and the service is great, so skip the large chain restaurants and hit up shake n buns. read more

4 burgers, 4 fries and drinks meal is a better value but I wanted to try the Californian and zucchini fries. I did like what I ordered. The burger was good but kinda soggy bread. The ranch was 50 cents and tasteless. I'd add a little more salt to the Zucchini and a little less salt to the normal fries. I toasted all the fries and leftovers when I got home. Everything was better second time around. read more

My children talked me into visiting this location. I saw this tiny little building and I was skeptical. However, the drive-thru was poppin. Proof is in the puddin baby! This place is so delicious. I would go every day if I could read more

If you're vegan or need plant-based options, this place is where it's at! My boyfriend and I ordered burgers, fries, fried pickles vegan shakes and they were amazing! Super tasty vegan cheese and vegan ranch to boot! And a shout out to the staff, they were hella friendly, and even asked how our food was while we were eating it at the outside tables. So glad they cared about how we liked our food, great customer service! Absolutely recommend this place! read more

Good small little spot to grab a bite to eat. There is no seating inside but there is some tables out side. They have your standard burger spot items but also a lot of plant based options as well. The hot mess burger is really good and it's apart of some promotion they have going on right now with a premium patty. It's a better tasting beef patty mixed with some other meat with a TON of jalapeños included. My bf loves spicy stuff and it was even a lot for him at times. I hope they keep these burgers on the menu. We also got a shake, corn dog, & burrito. Really good, not too expensive, & bomb ass ice for your drinks :D read more

That lady no longer works there so I don't think it is the businesses fault because it was the best place with crushed ice in your soda

We've been here a few times since my last review. We live 3 hours away, so whenever we're close by, we try to plan a stop for vegan food. Today I got the vegan version of their Signature Bacon Burger, supposedly made from the Impossible Meat. What I was expecting was two Impossible meat patties.What I got was three thin patties, which probably really only equal 1 1/2 regular sized Impossible patties. And this was the driest Impossible burger I've ever tasted from anywhere. Seriously, Burger King's Impossible Whopper is waay better. And since I can find one within a couple of miles, I won't be going out of my way to get SnB's version. The Buffalo fries were drenched in Buffalo sauce, making the fries soggy. And the Philly Teese was just okay...nothing like what I raved about before. The only redeeming food item was their vegan strawberry shake, which was a welcome treat on this very hot day. I won't be traveling 3 hours just for that anytime soon though. So two stars from me, and in the end, likely won't be coming back. read more

Shake 'N Buns - The vegan Signature Bacon burger. Tastes as dry as it looks. Head to Burger King for their Impossible Whopper... seriously. - Fast Food Near Me - Bakersfield, California

I ordered a signature burger which costs much more than the normal menu burgers and was a bit disappointed. This was the size I'd say of a junior burger . Don't get me wrong the flavor was good , it just wasn't as pictured at all . I'd say it's worth a try if you love bacon , but it wasn't a messy 5 napkin burger like in the picture . What I love the most here would be the ice cream treats . I love the peanut butter shake . read more

This restaurant always has fresh food never have I been disappointed once when I go there.

The food was so good! I had never been here but I've heard good things so decided to try it. I did drive thru and it took about 10 minutes but it was because of the car in front of me. The burgers had great taste and the fries too!! The vibes are like sonic but a mini version since i believe it's all outdoors and drive thru! Highly recommend!! read more

The crispy chicken salads are the best With Buffalo sauce or ranch............must try.......... read more

I really like their fries. Burger was good. Shakes and ice cream are delicious. Staff are courteous. I'd go back again

Just picked up my food. I came about 3:00pm 7/31/21. Specifically stated "well done, no pink" it's clearly pink inside. And it sucks because I don't have time to go back since I have to work. So once again I have to put up with the fact that people don't care to get an order right. I shouldn't have to always take a 50/50 chance on if my order is right. I choose not to eat undercooked food and I shouldn't have to. Why is it so hard for people to get it right? is what I'm asking for really that bad? read more

Shake 'N Buns - Undercooked meat when specifically asked for well done - Fast Food Near Me - Bakersfield, California

Wow! I was so impressed at the good quality of the ingredients! It was hot and tasty! The wait time was a little longer than corporate fast food, which I didn't dock points for because I personally don't mind waiting. Especially, due to how tasty and hot the food came, I wouldn't mind waiting twice as long! I just note it here as there are some people who don't like waiting long. We didn't go inside, but from what we could see it looked clean and staff was very friendly at the drive-thru window. 10/10 will be stopping here again while road-tripping! read more

Just finished eating this goodness. Just driving through Bakersfield on our travels & found this place on Yelp. Would definitely recommend & would definitely come back when in the area. We had the classic burger, pastrami sandwich, kids burger meal, fries, and the fried pickles! Super good food & happy with the service! read more

Everything is always hot and fresh, and the shakes are bomb! Going to try the fried pickles next time I come. read more

The online menu offers plant-based chikn wings, but the order ticket didn't print out as plant-based. My first online order was made early so when I picked up, it had regular meat wings and onion rings were lukewarm and soggy. The staff offered to remake the wings and were really nice about it, but unfortunately I couldn't wait so lost $10. The second time I made sure to write notes to make sure they saw that I wanted vegan wings since the online order doesn't show a difference. But when I showed up on time to pick up my order, they hadn't begun yet. (And no the drive-thru wasn't busy.) I waited 10 minutes past pick up time and plant-based wings were good, but probably won't try again. I appreciate the vegan options, Bakersfield! Sidebar - dairy-free milkshakes are bomb! And they have vegan Ranch!! read more

This place is a bit far from where I live and is in a kind of annoying spot to reach (Right by highway entrances) but every time I've eaten here, it's been pretty good. Had a peanut butter milkshake and it was very peanut-buttery. Boneless wings were dripping wet with sauce and fresh. Only real issue I'd say is the prices, but everywhere is expensive nowadays. Definitely worth your time if you're hungry and nearby. read more

I have tried a handful of times now to really give this place the benefit of the doubt, but the service is always so slow and the staff is less than friendly. Needless to say I definitely will not be coming back. read more

Been here a couple of times and haven't been disappointed yet. The pastrami burger is amazing and I've come back for it more than once. My wife is in love with the plant based CB ranch salad which is all vegan. She loves it and said it's one of the best vegetarian/vegan things she's ever had. Service is quick, the staff is friendly, price is reasonable and the food is great what more could you ask for. read more

to get mad I added bacon and extra pickles on my burger is INSANE. Why do y'all get jobs y'all hate and don't have the capacity for? I will never understand this. Ppl just be trying to order their food. Not deal with your attitudes read more

I think I found a new favorite spot for a burger. First off they have a daily special, $5.99 fo a double cheese burger, fries, and a drink. Burger is nicely cooked, bun is toasted and veggies are fresh. Crinkle Fries that are nice and crispy. My only complaint is they packed my drink with too much ice. Next time I will ask for easy ice. read more

Love the spicy chicken sandwich. The fries are better than McDonald's. Service was great!

I just ordered the vegan buffalo sandwich, and it was so satisfying to the taste and the presentation of it was so beautifully stacked & wrapped With the side of ranch, which was very delicious . read more

Ok this is for Plant based aka Vegan shake. Whaaaaat?! I got a chocolate shake oh yes I did and it tasted like I remember a drive thru shake tasting... yessss! Ok, sometimes you are in a road trip and need a drive thru fix. Ate at Guapos Tacos next door and afterwards we saw drive -thru menu of Plant based shake! Yummy in tummy in car. And they have a quickie drive thru so we didn't have to wait for full menu customers to get their food cooked. Back on road! read more

The food is so good! Fries are always fresh and the Vanilla Shake w browny and walnuts is so good, they are my absolute favorite

Shake n buns is delicious! They have really good family pack deals for families of 5. Completely worth it!

The impossible burger was done well! The burger was delicious and prepared with care. I've had the impossible somewhere else in town and thought it was the impossible burger itself, turns out it was the poor prep. I wish there were more shake n buns around town! Expansive vegan options available. read more

Okay, I've legit only tried their Impossible Burger- which is vegan- and fries! But I am STOKED. Shake N Buns is doing it right by including cruelty-free options. Beyond that they apparently also make sure they use vegan burger buns and a separate fryer for fries (slightly too salty for my taste but OMG crinkle fries!). Oh and let's not forget that they offer vegan cheese options! Whaaaat?! It's a bit pricy (9$ for a burger without cheese) but SO worth it if you're craving a treat. Thank you Shake N Buns; the Bakersfield vegan community applauds you. Here's hoping for vegan bacon add-ons or other vegan treats soon! read more

Most burger joints who offer a vegetarian or vegan option seem to settle for something like a garden burger--a real cop-out for a restaurant in my estimation. But not at Shake 'n Buns. Vegans take note, this place serves a truly legit vegan burger--the Impossible Burger. The vegan patty is super tasty with a nice consistency, and gets nicely charred on the grill. Then they actually follow through with vegan mayo and TWO choices of vegan cheese slices--provolone or cheddar. Highly recommended to my vegan friends looking for a great burger in Bakersfield. Note: drive through or outdoor seating only. Keep checking back, because the owner is looking into vegan ice cream. read more

Service is top notch and food just as good. I great the classic combo with extra seasoning on my fries and Rootbeer with extra ice. These are the best burger and fries in town hands down. The employees are super nice. The food takes a little longer than most hamburger places cause food is cooked after you order it. Fresh and amazing! read more
