Woolworth Diner - (Near Bakersfield, CA)

5 /5 Yolanda King: Stopped by yesterday afternoon between lunch and dinner and it was absolutely amazing! It was the perfect time to go! (It was busy when we got there but emptied out as we were finishing up, so got some photos) The burger was delicious. The Martins potato buns and the Woolies sauce were a perfect touch, oh and that black cherry, tarragon soda! The building was restored beautifully to its original beauty. Thank you so much for all the hard work that has gone into this, for all of us to enjoy. So nostalgic from my childhood. I will be back the next time I’m up visiting Bakersfield. How can I forget to mention the employees. Everybody was friendly, especially the cashier.

3 /5 Cynthia Statsmann: The place looks great, and the employees were very nice. Sadly, the food was mostly disappointing. The burger was really good, and the fries were good, except they were cold. The sauce that comes with the fries was very good. The grilled cheese sandwich was a joke. It was also cold, so the cheese was not melted. And there was not enough cheese for how thick the bread was. There were also no substitutions, add-ons, or removal of any of the ingredients allowed on any of the food. So the whole add-on section of the menu was pointless, since I’m seeing other reviewers saying the same.

4 /5 Shash Khan: I want to give a 5 stars . 1st I wish they kept the vintage look inside. 2nd they should add more cashiers. We waited for a while . They were a lot of people waiting in line took us close to 30 min. Good thing the food came out fast.. The burger was good and fries is crunchy. The Albondigas soup and salad was also good. There is a lot of tables to set. I will come back again.

5 /5 Dawn Baker: It was really nice to see how much work went into the renovation of the Woolworth store/diner. It is a much friendlier atmosphere then before. It has the modern open air feeling, but with the unique luncheonette experience. The food was really good. Our group had the Carrot & Ginger soup, shakes, burgers, and grilled cheese sandwiches. The customer service is outstanding. I hope this continues. My mom was visiting from the east coast, and was very excited to come here and you didn’t disappoint. Thank you for a great lunch. We’ll be back for the Reverb coffee and the diner!

5 /5 Joe Chan: Wife and I sat at the bar where the bartender Jody was genuinely friendly. She was fun to talk to and she made us feel welcomed. They have a few beers on tap and some wine. We enjoyed a couple glasses of Mind Haze. For food, my wife and I had the double cheeseburger and shared a large order of fries. Burger was delicious and very basic, in a good way. Kind of like the old days. Just meat, cheese, pickles, caramelized onions and sauce. Meat patties had good seasoning and flavor. The fries are seasoned perfectly. If you want a fancy burger, this isnt the place. If you want a juicy, flavorful, simple burger like the old diner days, this is the place.
