    The bacon cheeseburger!
    Maddy E.

    The waitress was so attentive, friendly and nice! I would come back just for the amazing service, but the food was delicious as well, so good, and fresh! We were here on our lunch hour and the food came out so quick! This place is the best and is marked as a comeback spot for all the staff at our company now! Can't wait to come back!

    Huevos Rancheros with Chile Verde absolutely delicious!

    Just had breakfast at Bakersfield Racquet Club home of The Barnyard at Match Point Grill. I ordered Huevos Rancheros topped with Chile verde. It was delicious, The tortillas was topped with Black Bean spread with over medium eggs covered with a nice tasty rancheros sauce. I added Chile verde and the pork chunks were nice and tender with a flavorful but mild Chile verde sauce. I would highly recommend having breakfast here. I'll be back to try their homemade hash for lunch!

    I never expected this place to be such a gem of a find! It's located at the entrance to the Bakersfield Racquet Club. It's a great lunch spot with a variety of menu items ranging from hot/cold sandwiches, salads, and burgers. The price is very reasonable and the portions are generous. There is also an adorable outdoor seating area.

    The staff here is very friendly and attentive. I recommend the Turkey Sandwich but swap the bread for the toasted ciabatta bread that the Bakersfield Best Burger usually comes on, it's light and easy to bite into with slightly crisp ends. Add fresh California avocado for $1.00 and you are set. Each item "from the barn" comes with a side. I highly recommend Sweet potato waffle fries and the waitress let me in a special secret side: honey. I will never go back to asking for ketchup or ranch for my sweet potato fries. This was like eating desert. Soooo good.

    Hole in the wall gem! Stumbled in on this place and happy I did. The customer service was off the hook and the food was even better. I got a burger which was AMAZING. It was grilled to perfection on what looked like ciabatta bread, YUM! I also had some sweet potato waffle fries with some sauce that's to die for. Highly recommend this place, also very inexpensive

    What a pleasant surprise. Tucked away in the courtyard of the Bakersfield Racquet Club is a delightful and yummy treat. Diverse menu, terrific food and a wonderful staff. The owner is for the most part a one person show, waiting and bussing tables while cooking and serving. She was pleasant, attentive, informative and on time with everything. We seated ourselves, didn't wait long for menus to be delivered and drink orders taken. She quickly returned with our drinks, politely answered all of our menu questions, took our order and was off. Our food arrived in a very reasonable time and was great! Three of us, a burger with really good homemade onion rings, a turkey and avocado sandwich on a ciabatta roll with sweet potato fries and a nice salad. All were excellent. Well prepared and well presented. I thoroughly enjoyed my stop for lunch and will definitely visit again.

    I had the Zucchini Grillini w sweet potato fries and it was fantastic. I would highly recommend it to everyone. Customer service was amazing. The lady taking my order was nice, recommended plates, offered a sample of their homemade clam chowder, and she even offered to cover my drink if I checked in on Yelp. So, here I am: belly full, content, and happy I brought home some of that clam chowder.

    Waiting in line- super zippy, btw at Angry Barnyard BBQ for breakfast at the F Street Farmers Market.

    OMG! Everything is SO Good! I don't know what kind of magical secret ingredients they had to sell their souls for, but no matter what we get its always super tasty. Last week my son had the almond French toast w fresh fruit and I snuck a few bites- super moist and just enough syrup and butter to make it great without turning my 5 year old Into a crackhead for an hour. Yay! I had the brisket and hash. So flavorful. Not a burnt potato piece in the bunch, like I usually see at breakfast places, but each piece was clearly done and evenly textured like hash should be. And just the right blend of flavor on the brisket. Tender and perfectly seasoned. And as if that's wasn't enough, two perfectly cooked eggs were piping hot on top! I totally broke those yolks and let them drizzle their goodness all over- unifying all the favors in the most delicious way. Ommmmmmm!!!!! Today, if they are still offering it, I know my husband will try the sausage gravy and biscuits & I can't wait to see what they've got for me and my son. Overall, a great farmers market find! And with the awesome way these folks seem to change up the menu and keep things fresh without sacrificing tastiness, hard to please people like me who are always looking for something new will want to see them operate at more markets and events!

    Overall, service was pretty good. They were attentive, however I feel they could've put their cell phone down. I feel it was a little unprofessional for a business. I was disappointed when we ordered ice tea and we were told they ran out. Then, I assume she a was a regular customer, because when she asked for it, they made it, then offered us some. The food was fine, but for the price, there are other places I'd rather go. They supposedly close at 2 pm, but they are closed by 1 pm.

    Very impressed and satisfied with their menu options. First time here and definitely not my last. I highly recommend their sweet potato fries (barnyard style). I added mushrooms to my burger and OMG sooo good!

    Turkey sandwich comes with Mayo, lettuce, tomato and sprouts. Barnyard style fries are delicious!
    Shelby H.

    5 stars for my first experience! I wish I would have got the ladies name who helped me, she was beyond sweet! I ordered the turkey sandwich with the "barnyard style" fries that came with chipotle aioli. Both sandwich and fries were VERY tasty! I'm definitely coming back to try more from the menu. This place is semi hidden, but not hard to find. I went in an hour before closing and they weren't busy at all. You don't have to be a member of the club to eat here.

    Stopped in before our long trip up hwy 5. We ordered the brisket hash and biscuits and gravy. The brisket was delicious and had a really nice smoked /bbq taste. The only thing I would recommend would be to add some green onions to give the plate some color. The biscuits and gravy were a real home run (or should I say match point?). We ordered a side order initially but when we tasted the gravy and light and fluffy biscuits, we had to immediately ask for a second order. The place was clean and the waitress was very friendly and attentive. I think we found out new spot when coming thru Bakersfield.

Me on the other hand, not impressed at all with the fish sandwich. First impression was it did look super fresh. The lettuce looked crisp and fresh and the fish was poking out of the sandwich which means good portions. But the fish was a bit dark, suggesting either old or dirty grease or cooked too long? Either way it was bland. I ended up having to douse it with a mixture of tarter, malt vinegar, ketchup and Tabasco sauce. I feel as though since this is a fish restaurant that is from the coast, the fish should be their best dish. But this is twice now that it has failed to impress me.

Tell me why I was immediately in love. The moment I opened it, I was greeted with a thick, generously stacked turkey sandwich that looked like it meant business. We're talking layers on layers of tender, juicy turkey, piled high with that crisp, freshly shredded lettuce that gives the perfect crunch in every bite. Even writing about it makes my mouth water all over again! The bread? Soft, fresh, and just the right amount of pillowy to hold it all together without falling apart. As if the sandwich wasn't already the star of the show, the box came fully loaded with a chocolate chip cookie,, a bag of chips for that salty crunch moment, and a little sampler of macaroni salad that was slathered in Italian dressing. So tasty! Honestly? Mouthwatering from start to finish. Whoever put these boxes together understood the assignment! (Haha) This is definitely a must try when hungry!

Caesar's is hit and miss for me. Once in a great while it's one of the best sandwiches I've had and sometimes it's just okay. One thing I do know for sure is that I keep coming back because they have "that" clam chowder. My only complaint is that they are pricey and you can get a superior sandwich from other places. Parking is a little bit crazy during lunch time. Staff is always super nice here and the lines go pretty quick. I don't know if they have more than the 2 locations I know of. This location is not as fancy as the one on Brimhall, but their sandwiches are just as good.
