Bakersfield’s new
coffee shop
HUGO MALDONADO GARCIA/THE RIP
Bakersfield Roasting Company is located at 6501 Schirra Court
in Southwest Bakersfield.

The Bakersfield
Roasting Company is
the hottest new coffee
place in town! Located
at 6501 Schirra
Court in Southwest
Bakersfield. It’s the
perfect place to go for
a quick coffee run.
As someone who
drinks about three
cups of coffee a day
just to stay awake, this
new coffee shop had a
great first impression.
They have a variety
of flavors and coffee
options that can be a
little overwhelming if
you have not taken a
look at their menu before.
Bakersfield Roasting
Co.’s menu consists
of their house
favorites like caramel
lattes, espresso, and
brewed coffee with
the choice of iced or
hot. Other delights
include Italian soda,
house mocha, and
12oz or 1lb purchasable
coffee bags to
make at home. They
also have coffee brewers,
plus branded apparel
like t-shirts and
aprons.
An interesting detail
that caught my attention
about this coffee
shop is they have
a huge coffee bean
roasting machine
right as you walk in by
their main entrance.
The Bakersfield
Roasting Co. roast
their coffee beans inhouse
every Tuesday.
Any day of the week
is great to stop by and
grab a cup of coffee
and your choice from
many of their baked
goods.
When it came down
to taste their coffee I
was impressed with
my order, the flavor
of their iced cold
brew with a dash of
almond milk was just
what I needed before
the busy day ahead.
My iced coffee went
great with the taste of
their cinnamon roll
that is served with a
side of cream cheese
frosting.
You will not only
love the quality, you
will love the price. A
16oz cold brew coffee
with almond milk is
priced at $3.25 which
is almost equivalent
to a grande vanilla
sweet cream cold
brew at Starbucks for
$4.25. Think about it,
you can put that extra
dollar towards your
next cup of coffee at
Bakersfield Roasting
Co.
This new place is
denfinitely in my top
three coffee shops.
