24th Street Cafe
Best Breakfast in Bakersfield · CA
Where Bakersfield lines up for breakfast
The 24th Street Cafe is Bakersfield's classic downtown diner, a from-scratch breakfast-and-lunch counter that locals have voted the city's best breakfast year after year. Chicken-fried steak, biscuits and gravy, giant cinnamon rolls, and bottomless coffee come with genuine diner-booth atmosphere.
Run by a multi-generation Bakersfield restaurant family, it's the kind of unpretentious, everybody-welcome spot where the line out the door on a weekend morning is the surest sign of a town's favorite.
