    Drive thru line.

    I usually get a Triple Iced Espresso with some sort of flavor in it, and I don't usually review chains but I LOVE this Starbucks. They have so many great team members; Jodee, CJ, Ricky, and Luis just to name my favorites. It's a bit small inside compared to other Starbucks but if you come in the late afternoon there is usually room to sit. I love it!

    It was quiet when I came in after lunch. Staff was nice and friendly. Got a lavender frapp to go. They were quick and efficient and it tasted the way it should.

    Slow extremely SLOW... got in line and just over 15 min to order and it's not like that line was crazy long, 4 cars between me and the order box. 20 seconds to order, 4 min to get to the window, 1.20 min I sat at the window no one said a word to me.. pay and get my drink less than 13 seconds.. thank goodness I work close I went on my break..

    Love the air con

    Always great coffee and the cashier was very nice and accommodating. It was 105 degrees outside and we really needed an iced mocha to wake us up and quench our thirst. We ordered our two drinks and in less than five minutes we had our tasty treat.

    First time at this location in Bakersfield. We are spending the days at the hospital for a family member and the Starbucks on site at Adventist health is closed on Saturday!?! Why would a Starbucks be closed on a Saturday? Crazy! Anyway closest one was this location. Parking was okay in our big truck, but no way to fit in drive thru. Walking up there is two tables with umbrellas to sit outside. Looked clean and organized inside, couple people ahead of us. Line moved quick and we received our drinks in a reasonable amount of time. I would definitely come here again if I was in the area.

    Cranberry bliss bar, so good!!!

As I was walking I saw the sign for this place and was happy I did because my other coffee options were a fast food restaurant or the famous coffee chain. It was a bit confusing to locate. It was tucked away in the back of a commercial office space type building. Once inside the place was very clean and organized. Very minimalist design. I was only one of 4 total people inside. My order was taken quickly. I ordered an iced americano with a ham and cheese turnover. Coffee was on point. No notes. No complaints. The pastry however was not good. They asked me if I wanted it heated up. I said I did. I saw her put it in the microwave, and I assumed they turned it on. When I bit into it (I had already left and walked across the street) it was cold. Like cold cold. On top of that it was flavorless which made it worse. Stick to the coffee or make sure you check the temp of the food prior to leaving.

If you're driving up, go past the outdoor dining space for the restaurant and the door foe the coffee shop is opposite the restaurant. I di ask the barista if they had any specials or any drinks they were really known for and got some funny looks. But ended up with a delightful honey lavender latte, which was delicious. I would recommend a good cup of coffee at Beanies!

Being driven back from the Grand Canyon having spent nearly a week camping with some awesome people from SJSU, we were informed we were staying at a Super 8 motel overnight to take hot showers and sleep on beds (one week of camping will do that). I had search on Google for coffee nearby and saw this "Bikini Bottom Coffee" shop pop up and yes, I was intrigued of a coffee shop with bikini clad baristas. But it was getting late and we had an early departure for San Jose the next day so I bookmarked this place just in case the free coffee and breakfast offering at the motel did not speak to me (it was terrible...). The morning of the departure, I got up early and it was just a 1-minute walk there and they have two(?) drive by lanes for cars to pull up to order. You can also just walk up to order. Aside from the obvious -- baristas in bikinis taking your order, they have an extensive list of coffee drinks and souvenirs you can buy. Given I need my morning cup of coffee, I opted for the House Blend Bue Coffee and their French toast breakfast sandwich. My verdict? The coffee was alright. I have had better coffee, but given my choice of free (gross) coffee at Super 8 vs my bikini coffee, the latter was a much better solid choice. The French toast breakfast sandwich was heavy with sausage, bacon, and eggs if you are a meat lover. Customer service was excellent so I will give them props for being patient with me while deciding what to order. Overall, it's a good coffee pit stop (if Dutch Bros isn't around) with good customer service vibes (and no, it is not what you think lol).

Not sure what kind of beans they use here but something tells me they're of the Folgers variety. If you're looking for espresso, this ain't the place. It looks like they make Red Bull mixed drinks so if that's more your speed then I suppose give Bottoms Up a try. I will never understand why places that have "espresso" in the business name, don't take care to make sure their espresso is at very least drinkable.

I went twice to this location two days in a row because I enjoyed it so much. First with a friend and then I had to introduce it to my kids. The coffees and teas are delish and unique, as well as the smoothies and juices (I didn't try those but my kids loved them). We tried a variety of baked goods, the honeycomb bread is sooooo dang good! Filled with little pockets of cream cheese, drizzled with honey, and topped with toasted regular and black sesame seeds (I forgot to take a pic of this one, but I'll add it next time I go). We enjoyed all of the pastries we tried- not a crumb on our plates by the time we were finished! The decor is beautiful and unique. All of the employees super nice and helpful.

They also had free WiFi & since it's near the university, it's popping with college students working on their laptops. I absolutely love the variety of items to eat & drink! I got the Dubai chocolate, manakeesh, mint mango smoothie (seasonal for Ramadan, not a permanent item) & a Vimto refresher. I've never had Dubai chocolate before but I am STOKED I had it here for the first time. Perfect size, perfect crispy texture & powerful flavor. I love that the pistachio isn't overwhelming. The manakeesh is my all time favorite. Flatbread with white melted cheese & the perfect seasonings. It's embarrassing how quick I ate it. I can't savor it because it's THAT GOOD!! Only $3!!! The Vimto refresher is my absolute favorite new drink. It has sparkling water with berries. Chefs kiss. I know it's going to hit hard in the summer when I'm needing a cold drink. The mint mango smoothie is PHENOMENAL! The balance of mint & mango is just right. I hope they keep this item around. The service was also wonderful. Kind baristas that are knowledgeable & definitely hard workers! They are a very busy business & they handle it with ease. One thing I do not care for (but it will not affect negatively on my review) is credit card payments. Your subtotal they tell you after you order is only if you pay cash. If you pay card, it is atomically more because of credit card charges but they do not say that. It will also reflect an even higher amount on the screen because it automatically adds 20% gratuity to your credit card charge. So it goes from one price, to another, to another. I always tip but if it's not a restaurant, it will typically be 10%. Be aware of the charges when you go. I absolutely love this spot. I can't wait to try new drinks & food!
