I really do love Chick-fil-A, but dislike the drive thru..always extremely busy. Today I decided on enjoying my meal inside the restaurant. Much to my surprise, no one in line (but drive thru was 15-20 cars deep). There were a lot of folks eating-in but I managed to find an empty table. I ordered the Jalapeño Ranch Club (with a crispy chicken fillet). The burger had tomatoes, lettuce, sliced pickled jalapenõs, pepper jack cheese, jalapenõ ranch sauce and caramelized onion flavor candied bacon on a buttermilk ranch bun. This burger is so darn delicious with just enough spice. This is probably one of my favorites. Their signature waffle fries were so fresh and piping hot. I ordered the diet lemonade (made with Splenda), definitely my favorite. Despite how busy the restaurant was, staff were cleaning tables as customers left. The ambiance appeared to be chaotic but staff were on it. On a side note: they had this iconic Bakersfield" sign that I vividly recalled seeing as a child, hanging at the restaurant. The sign had some humor to it. lol read more

Fast service, nice people, and the greatest initiator of my 5 star review is that fact that they have a play place and ITS open! Lost gems with our current generation, this chik fil a is legit read more

Chick-fil-A has once again excelled with our catering order! I would thank Kyira, who was exceptionally pleasant and efficiently organized with the setup. She provided clear explanations for everything. We are truly appreciative, especially considering the distance they travel to reach us in the Mall View area. We hope to have a location out here soon. read more

Great smooth experience today. Ordered curbside pick up on the app and used a rewards coupon to get a free side. I was expecting a long wait when seeing how many people were in line for drive thru and in the pick up spots. They were busy! Even on the app they said it could be 5-10 mins to get my order so I settled down with my podcast and waited. Then almost immediately a young man was there with my order. It was great. My order was correct with the right food and sauces and it was hot and delicious. Very happy! Great service and high quality fast food read more

I do prefer my sauce in the little baggie that it comes in and not tossed in my bag on top of my food. read more

Honestly, I don't know what the big fox is about. I know my kids love eating here. I think I've had it maybe once or twice I honestly think that they are overpriced for the meal. I mean I was there today because I had asked my daughter what she wanted for lunch and this is what she wanted. The service is good. The parking is very busy. No road to park and the drive-through was horrible being in a big pick up truck is kinda hard for me to move around in there, but like I said the food I guess is OK. I just think it's overpriced but I know my daughter does enjoy eating there, but I will not pay that much for myself to eat there for a meal a chicken sandwich no read more

This has been one of those places I've been wanting to visit for a while now, but just never made it happen. Kind of out of the way from my normal commute. I have ordered takeout from Chick-fil-A but this was my first dine-in experience. With that being said....Stopped in on a random Thursday night after a late movie showing. Being early spring and great cool temperatures I opted to take advantage of the available outdoor seating. While the restaurant was busy throughout, it was also a relaxing atmosphere as well. I couldn't help but notice how Chick-fil-A reminded me of a very popular American burger drive thru restaurant you may know. (Located primarily in CA) A very simple menu, a drive thru and lobby that is always packed, and service that is quick but always friendly and accurate. Similarly, be careful what you say around others Chick-fil-A has a very loyal fan base, myself included I love the food here. The waffle fries are super tasty. What I like most is the pure quality and flavor of the chicken without having to dress it. I'm not big on sauces and dressing, and a plain chicken sandwich from Chick-fil-A still tastes amazing. If sauces are your thing they offer a wide variety. read more

I did a Mobil order. When I got there at noon, I thought I would have to wait a while for my order or my order was going to be wrong, but I was pleasantly surprised by it coming out fast, warm, and with a friendly greeting. And not to mention, the food was delicious! read more

Pretty normal chick fil a visit. Store was clean as always. Fresh flowers on the table. We took our son to play at the indoor play area and it was very clean as well. I ordered from my table using the QR code on it- that was pretty cool I never had to get up the brough it to my table. I ordered the spicy chicken with large fries and ice tea. The sandwich was delicious as always and fries could have been a little crispier but still pretty good! read more

Hot fresh and tasty is how I would describe my meal. The beverage was cold crisp and refreshing the chicken, hot, tender and delicious... French fries were crispy and properly cooked. read more

Everytime I come to this location they never get my car correct and can never find me because they never get it right n I know they can see what car I have, my emblem isn't missing and other locations has gotten it correct and the sandwiches come out so sloppy. I love chick-fil-a don't get me wrong but it's like the people at this location just don't care. Especially for how expensive the food is, like come on now read more

Marianna (hopefully I'm spelling this right)is so personable and friendly. Absolutely love her attitude. I hope they promote her!! She was standing in the rain taking orders with the biggest smile on her face. NOW THAT is customer service!!! read more

We had a horrible experience. the employee was rude and impatient. he kept interrupting me when i had asked him to give me a few minutes.

The chicken tastes really sweet for some reason. The fries are amazing but I don't like how sweet the chicken is. The place is really packed too so it's hard to find a table. read more

We love Jenna! She's always so polite and friendly. They have great breakfast and regular menu gluten free options for me. I appreciate the dedicated fryer for the French fries! read more

I'm never gonna see what the rest of you are seeing. There is literally nothing special about this chicken. Having had entirely mediocre experiences at other locations, I would never go to Chick-fil-A of my own volition. However, it was "take your cousin to work" day, and this is what my cousin decided to order for lunch. To be fair, the night before, I had noted that a sandwich on one of their commercials "looked bomb," and I may have even said, "I think I would actually try that, even though I've never liked that place." I personally ordered a deluxe spicy chicken sandwich with pepperjack, a side of mac and cheese, and a couple of buffalo sauces. The mac and cheese was actually pretty good. Worth 4 stars, if you will. As I bit into my sandwich, I immediately flashed back to the break room of McDonald's on State Street in Santa Barbara, because that's exactly what the chicken tasted like. Before writing this review, I actually Googled, "Why is Chick-fil-A so popular?" I would not disagree with the consensus that the customer service is impeccable, and that the food taste is consistent and reliable. It's just not that good. read more

I have never seen a more efficient and dedicated team worker than the drive thru team at this location. The drive thru associate challenged me to ensure the accuracy of my order with great dedication after multiple denials from me stating it was correct and yet... it wasn't. She did this all while training a new associate and still provided great customer service. The kind sir (tall with blond hair cascading under his hair flowing in the wind) took my order and paid great attention to my energy and maintained such a positive attitude. The young lady that was dedicated to ensuring DoorDash/Uber orders were accurate and all handled the high pressure with such amazing confidence and was committed to unbridled service. You can clearly tell that it isn't just the training of the associates at this location, but their team morale and individual pride to provide the greatest service possible. read more

The trick is dining in, let's face it we all want some Chick-fil-A but don't want to give up 30 mins sitting in that drive through that snakes and weaves throughout an entire shopping center parking lot reminiscent of a Disneyland ride line during spring break. Go inside, order, have a seat, and be eating in about 5 mins! read more

I drove up to the drive thru, Izel greeted me. I felt seen, I cried and ordered my nuggets.

It was a nice experience! We found a parking spot right out front, there was no line when we walked in to order ( considering how crowded they were ). The cashier was a sweetheart. And there was one 4 seater table left when we went to go sit down. Lol There drive thru is always insane and they constantly have a heavy flow of traffic inside as well for those who ordered pick up, so it was pretty loud and crowded inside the entire time, and the dining area is not that big either. Food came out pretty fast, and everything was really fresh tasting! Chicken was hot & juicy, waffle fries were perfectly salted and crispy, my husband's milkshake was awesome, the half iced tea/half Lemonade's were pretty good, The only thing really was that the buns were smashed and there was no sauce on the sandwiches. . . There probably made that way, and they do offer a verity of different sauce packets when you order, but still, sauce should come on the sandwich already instead of having to take apart your sandwich to spread it on yourself. 2 combos came out to 26$ something, which is normal for fast food now and day's lol. It was worth it, I recommend. read more

Chicken sandwich is fabulous! Nuggets are so good as well! Employees are the best anywhere.

Well, I was convinced to try Chick-Fil-a today and the sandwich is ok, The Soda's that came with the meals can't be drank. The Sprite is watered down which means the machine is not working properly. How could they not know this. I live too too far away to go back over non-sodas. But I am putting it out there. Check your machines. read more

Food was really good tbh but my whole family and I all got food poisoning. First time it's ever happened after going here for years. I probably won't go back for a long time, it sucks but so does running to the bathroom every 5 minutes Update- Called the store and spoke to the manager or supervisor, she basically called me a liar and said I couldn't prove we got it from them. read more

Ordered 3 peppermint chocolate chip shakes, given 3 cookies and cream shakes. I guess it's hard to remember. They were trashed once we got home and realized they were wrong. read more

So, there I was, bright and early at the Chick-fil-A drive-thru, ready to pick up an order and deliver it like the responsible breakfast hero I am. Now, I'm not allergic to getting out of my car--I'm not that lazy--but I figured, "Hey, why not save us all some time and just grab it at the window?" Efficiency, right? The young lady at the window, who wasn't exactly wrestling waffle fries or defusing a Chick-fil-A sauce spill, kindly informed me, "For order pickups, you'll need to come inside to confirm." Now, don't get me wrong--I respect a good system. But c'mon, we live in a world where my phone can tell me how many steps I took yesterday and probably how many chicken nuggets I've eaten this year. Surely, she could've just confirmed my order right there on the screen. But hey, rules are rules. So, I parked, went inside, and approached the first team member I saw. He gave me the classic "Over there" finger point--no "Good morning!" or "My pleasure!"--just a directional gesture like I was navigating an airport terminal. Eventually, a kind young lady handed me the order, and boom--mission accomplished. Look, I get it: Chick-fil-A runs a tight ship, and policies exist for a reason. But when the drive-thru is quieter than a Sunday at Chick-fil-A (you see what I did there?), a little common sense and flexibility go a long way. Technology is here to make things smoother, not add extra steps to my chicken biscuit adventure. read more

Julie or Julian was very rude not professional. We went through the drive through and from the moment she went up to our window she had attitude. I understand people have bad days but that needs to be left outside of work. read more

Obviously, best chicken sandwich ever ;) Honestly, their chicken noodle soup and salad is delicious too. If I'm craving tasty chicken, this is always my spot. read more

Food was good. I enjoyed the mac n cheese and pimento chicken sandwich. Customer service was good.

The guy that handed us the food and the girl that took our order were great but at the drive thru prior to ordering, my mom and I were trying to closely look at the only menu board at the drive thru because we couldn't see the laminated paper menus that were posted before it .. the guy he seemed he was in charge was trying to move traffic forward kept waving us to move forward but we were trying to look at the menu board for just seconds and he said something along the lines like "c'mon I have a line!" . There was like one or two cars behind and we were only taking seconds to look. Either put a menu board before or be considerate no need to be rude . Name on the receipt cashier said Sebastian idk if that would be him read more

I swear this cfa is haunted or something. The first time i went to this location was before a 3 hour road trip and my car suddenly broke down a block away. Then, the second time i went to this cfa i got a flat tire in a different car. And i had JUST gotten new tires. Anyways the food is good and service is fast, i just think its haunted or something. read more

11/5/24 11:22 They are missing 11 Sauces i ordered, why even ask if they always forget, its always something forgetting with then too, last time 2 times they did not give me a fork for my macaroni and cheese and guess what, not a fork for it again today ! Corporate needs to step it up and intervene. read more

There are very few fast food places that I can say have never disappointed me. This isn't one of them but it's pretty darned close! Bakersfield Chick-fil-A food has been consistently good. The service is excellent and their management team have always treated me in a professional manner. Being African American and hearing about race issues with the company. I am happy to say at this location I've never experienced it. Oscar and serval other managers have had nothing but smiles and great service. This locations sponsors some games at CSUB (local university) love yo see the cow at the games. Plus when the home team wins they give out free Chick food cards. I often end up spending more money going to redeem the cards sandwich or nuggets. But, I don't mind giving my money to a place that also gives me something free back. Downside: This place has the longest waits and line in the parking lot. So, you have to time your visit on off peak hours our you're waiting in the drive thru forever. They have lots of staff outside with their iPad taking orders down the line. It's just a super busy place, they do their best. However, instead of closing it for remodeling they should've just opened a second location. Because it's still super busy and some days they lose money because I know several people that leave because of the line. Use the app and car hop service it scores! Also, if you arrive and the drive thru line is long, but spots in parking are empty. I advise you to park and go inside. I did this yesterday and when I came out a nice red mustang that was in line when I went in was just making it up to the window. Score on the walk in! We had one box of nuggets missing, but a manager jumped on it and moved us to the side register and charged me and got our order fixed quickly. I felt it should've been just given to us for the inconvenience and the long 20 mins we had waited for our food and having to get back into line but every manager doesn't realize the importance of a return visit for that little kick back to apologize for the missing item. Food was hot, delicious and all the family enjoyed the meal. My gf had the frosty lemonade and today I am on my way back for a second one. Darn it Chick-fil-A why did it have to be so friggin good! Overall it was a nice visit. read more

Went to Chic-Fil-A to prove to my wife that it's better than Popeyes... yet was proven wrong. I asked for Avocado lime dressing, and they forgot it... which completely ruined my meal. Now that I think of it, a meal so DEPENDENT on a sauce couldn't be THAT good... So I went to eat my fries, hoping it would remedy any sadness from missing my sauce... And was surprised by these bottom of the barrel Chick-fil-A Waffle Potato Fries. I mean what in the actual f*%&@ Popeyes wins, guys. This place is NOT worth the time in the drive-thru, nor the money. read more

Got food poisoning from a single chicken sandwich. Can not recommend due to getting sick from the food.

This is probably my favorite fast food chicken spot in Bakersfield. Yes, I like Cane's, but I think I choose Chick-fil-A over them. It's all about the sauces here and they have tons of sauces for the people that like to keep it saucy. I like all their sauce, but my favorite is the original Chick-fil-A sauce. Chick-fil-A has been here for a little while now and amazingly I have tried breakfast once a long time ago and I don't remember it, so my review is strictly for their lunch/dinner items. Honestly, after eating the nuggets here, I don't know if I could look at the Chicken McNuggets the same. The nuggets here taste fresh and you can tell the quality is better. Their chicken sandwiches are really good and even their plain chicken sandwich is delicious and lightly seasoned. The crisscut fries are really good and lightly salted. I don't like when fries are super salty, so to me their crisscut fries are perfect. Do what that cow recommends and please "eat mor chikin" haha. You will not regret it! ;-P read more

Half grilled half crispy I ordered a chicken sandwich and asked for it to be crispy. To my surprise, when I received my order, it was half grilled and half crispy, not what I had requested. I was really looking forward to a fully crispy sandwich, and it was frustrating that my order wasn't prepared as I asked. I hope the restaurant can improve their order accuracy in the future. read more
