Crema's Take

This beloved Bakersfield institution feels like stepping into a classic American diner where the coffee is genuinely good and the kitchen turns out generous, craveable comfort food—from perfectly executed chicken and waffles to fresh-tasting roast beef dips that justify the loyal following. The multilingual staff brings real warmth to every visit, creating an unpretentious atmosphere that keeps people coming back for everything from quick breakfast coffee runs to lingering lunch sessions, all at prices that feel fair for the quality you're getting.

The coffees great, staff is nice tho some have mediocre English, tho they can communicate just fine. Food was amazing, prices were alright, 20$ for 2 egg 4 toast and hash browns with a coffee Pop music plays which I wouldn't personally choose for a 1950-60-70s esque Dinner but it's peaceful, I'd choose jazz or somethin personally. Love the place would recommend

4.3/5 for their roast beef dip. Flavor was fantastic and all the ingredients tasted very fresh. Staff was welcoming and friendly as well.

I recently had lunch at Milts. This sparkly clean restaurant is a wonderful place to eat breakfast, lunch or dinner. The servers here are always pleasant and extremely efficient. During a recent visit, I opted for a Cafe French Dip with crinkle cut fries as well as a house salad with Milts house vinaigrette ( my favorite) . My companion ordered a French Basque soup, which was loaded with fresh vegetables in a steaming hot tomato broth. According to my companion , the soup was very hot and satisfying . My Cafe French Dip was loaded with lean roast beef and served on a soft, and fresh Pyrenees roll. The French Dip was served with a delicious side of crispy, golden crinkle cut fries and a deli style dill pickle wedge. Delicious! I would also like to commend our excellent and efficient server , Avery. This is truly a wonderful place to dine. A true local treasure!

Great service and huge portions. Came for national pancake day left with this. Best chicken and waffles ever. Husband had the Pork Scnitzel which he was raving about. We signed up for rewards and got $10.00 off for our first time. We will definitely be back!!! 10/10 breakfast gem 💎
