Many people may not know that this little gem is open to the public but they are.... My husband will tell you that this place can be dangerous because I can find tons of things I never knew I needed but it's also great to find that one odd thing you were looking for and usually at a better price than even online retailers. My latest endeavor included being on the hunt for restaurant style taco holders (you know the metal ones that zig zag). I could not find these in any store and Amazon had them but outrageously priced. Not only did they have them but they also had several sizes. I went with the 2-3 taco size and my husband loved them. I was also needing some soup spoons and I love that they have tons of styles and you can by just want you need by the dozen. Have you lost a few spoons to the evil garbage disposal???? Well you can replace them here! I did get a different style than I order so I need to go back and exchange them but still a great deal. Truly if you need anything for your kitchen check here first, you won't regret it. read more

Twice, we have been to J&E Restaurant Supply this year. Each time has been a good experience. They have inventory in two buildings situated across from each other. In one building, you will find all their large heavy duty equipment one would find in restaurants. We go to their other building which holds a large selection of kitchen supplies for both the home and/or business. Do they have the lowest prices? Nope! I researched prices ahead of time and we could have saved money if we ordered online. Are they expensive? Nope! The prices we paid were not much higher than if we had purchased online. Although it did not save us money, we did save on time by making our purchases here. Will we be returning? Yes, we will. Good selection. Fair prices. How is customer service? We have received nothing but 5 star service here. read more

J & E Restaurant Supply - Inside the store - Restaurant Supplies Near Me - Bakersfield, California

See all

I have gone to this store for many years. The service is good, not too sure about prices, but they have a great deal of inventory. We bought a large ice machine many years ago, I think it was capable of 300 lbs. a day, and our current ice machine that makes 85 lbs. a day. They also sold us special water filter systems for the ice makers. And browsing in the kitchen items, you may find things you did not even know you needed. This is a large store with everything to run a kitchen, either yours at home, or a commercial kitchen. read more

I have been in the J&E Restaurant Supply store many times and am always amazed at the inventory they have. It is an experience just to walk around the store to see everything that they carry. I must say that I have only positive experiences with the employees...always polite and helpful. And prices are hard to beat...much better than the department stores. We are fortunate in Bakersfield to have a store like J&E. Their primary business for years was commercial and now they let the public come in to enjoy the wide assortment of products that they carry at great prices. They for sure have the largest inventory of kitchen items in Bakersfield....... so maybe we need to consider them as the Costco of kitchens, except we get much better customer service here than at Costco! read more

The worst customer service the front desk lady hung up on me twice and was rude at that was needing information and she said just come to the store and ask instead of connecting me with a sales person read more

Customer service is the best I really recommend it for the Restaurant owners and catering companies

I had to grab a couple of things for work today and of course time is money. I couldn't get anyone to take time to help me. I felt like an inconvenient rather than a valued costumer. I am not about to explain the situation but when you are asking questions and they act like they are to busy to help it's enough to make me walk out of the place. Would it help if the associates understand and are knowledgable about their products? Would it make sense that they avoid questions then? I wonder. I'm just going to say this, I know the manager wasn't there so I will excuse what happened today. However, when you are helping a guest, it's rude to ask other people if they need help when you have not resolved the initial costumers needs. It was a frustrating experience please please please be respectful to your costumers. read more

Super friendly and helpful staff. They have everything for a commercial or home kitchen. The inventory is impressive.

Prices were really good and there was a pretty good selection. I was looking for some party supplies rather than restaurant stuff, but I was happy with what I found. The staff was very helpful. read more
