The 18hundred
1800 Chester Ave, Bakersfield, CA
Crema's Take
“Tucked into downtown Bakersfield, this spot beautifully balances a full brunch and dinner menu with a dedicated coffee bar that draws regulars back for favorites like their Bee's Knees Latte. The charm lies in its family-friendly vibe and genuinely sweet staff who create a quaint atmosphere that locals love, though service consistency seems to be a work in progress. If you're after quality coffee drinks alongside solid comfort food like their standout Philly cheesesteak, this independent gem is worth a visit.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Stopped I. Here while passing through and the place and food felt a bit souless. I'm sure there are better places to eat and the burger was just eh. Not bad, but not worth the stop. Also, the bathroom could use some love - dirty, missing components, and the bathroom fan needs a…
Im sure The 18hundred is a great choice for a good meal. The service was lacking the day we visited. It took almost 30 minutes after being seated to get anyone to come to the table for drinks. The food is delicious but served on the smallest plates possible making it difficult…
