I've been coming to this place for a while now and it is by far the best coffee shop I've been to, absolutely nothing compares and the staff here make the experience 10x better. Mohammad, Sarah, and Beth especially are just so welcoming and make the best drinks. The ambiance of the place is inviting and is the best spot to be with friends. read more

What a lovely experience!! The decorations are so beautiful and the staff was so kind with me explaining to me about their delicious treats! The coffee is soooo good and the pistachio cake OMG is one of the most delicious things I ever had in my life read more

Mokha Cafe - Pistachio cake - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Bakersfield, California

Tried it, loved it. The decore is perfect for this cafe; from the murals on the wall to the fancy trays which the food and drinks come out on. The first time I went, I had the Turkish coffee. Okay, Turkish coffee is not for everyone. I have had it, I knew what to expect, and I know I like it. This was good Turkish coffee. You must like dark coffee and must not be turned off by grounds as it is unfiltered. The second time I went, I had the Arabic coffee. That was a product I hadn't had, and I didn't know what to expect. I thought they might have served me the wrong thing. It looked and tasted more like a tea. That said... it was delightful. Sometimes, it is pleasant to be surprised by something. read more

I'm a big fan of Turkish coffee so I came to check this place out and got way more than what I bargained for. Started off with the Turkish coffee, which was authentic and perfectly balanced with sweet dates. The Adeni tea is rich and flavorful, not too sweet. The tea pairs great with the honeycomb bread. If you're looking for something sweeter, try the basboosa with pistachio drizzle or baklawa. Ended up trying a bunch of things and taking them to go for later. They have other types of baklawa so you can choose between peanuts or mixed nuts, or classic pistachio. We didn't leave a stray crumb when it came to the butter cookies. They come as plain and date-filled. The butter cookies are flaky and delicious. They melt in your mouth so don't try to dip them in your tea. Last but not least, we tried the ka'ak and this was not sweet, but had a nice crunchy outside and flaky inside. So if you're looking for a low sugar option the ka'ak is gold! Employees were courteous and didn't mess up our order. The atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable. You could pop in for a to-go order or take your time sitting inside the shop enjoying your drinks and sweet bites. They won't rush you. Actually, they offered us a sampling of an off-menu item: mango smoothie. It was thick and creamy like a milkshake, but refreshingly fruity of course. Check this place out if you're looking for a new spot for your caffeine or sugar fix! read more

The place is very nice. I really liked how clean and cute it looked inside. They also had games available which was fun to play while waiting for our orders. I ordered the a hot pistachio latte with oat milk. It is my favorite pistachio lattes that I have tasted. It has was creamy with a delicious pistachio flavor. From their small bites menu, I got their baklava, the mixed nuts (I believe she said pistachio, almond, and walnuts), the peanut baklava, and their honeycomb bread. All of it was delicious. My kids really liked the honeycomb bread and kept commenting how good it was. My favorite has to be the peanut baklava. It had a lot of peanuts and was very peanut forward. The service was great. The barista greeted me with a smile and was very welcoming and friendly. She was able to explain the different pastries available. She was very kind whenever I had any questions regarding the menu. read more

Cute place! Everything was delicious. I came from Fresno for the dubai strawberries and they were DIVINE. I had the house specialty Mufawar as well, pretty earthy but rich in flavor if that's your thing. The environment is welcoming and cozy as well. Locally owned, beautifully authentic. The staff was working hard to get through the long line! Seemed understaffed but excellent service! The gentleman with the accent was helpful and the two girls making drinks welcomed every customer as they walked in. They even had board games and great music! Will be visiting with my fiance when I'm in town again! read more

I just had the Iced Pistachio Latte and baklawa and I am seriously IN LOVE. Instantly my new favorite coffee place. Go try it! Make sure this place stays in business for a long time. read more

Tried Turkish coffee for the first time. Definitely strong but very smooth. Also loved all the pastries. Honeycomb bread, kunafa, basboosa. Macha green tea and iced caramel macchiato. So yummy. Great ambience and pleasant customer service. read more

Everything here is beautiful, I know the family that works and owns this business and I always tells friends and family and coworkers to go here because everything they do is with love and passion. Highly recommend their Yemen teas and their honey cheese bread read more

The service was amazing quick and the location is aesthetically pleasing. There is a lot of parking in the front but it can get busy during prime time. I wish they had some more food options. read more

Mokha Cafe - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Bakersfield, California

The food/ pastries we got was so dry, cold and tasted like its been sitting there for a couple of months. (we got kunafah and this other type of biscuit) Also the drinks we gotten which was two matchas, one iced pistachio latte and warm pistachio latte. It tasted like its had no effort put into them and was actually so gross. The quality they give to their customers regarding their high prices is actually ridiculous. (we payed about 49$ in total) Please do not represent us yemenis like this. Our foods and teas are nothing like this. This is very very disappointing. read more

Tired of bad service from most Starbucks in town my husband and I decided to stop here and we weren't disappointed. Coffee is good, the place is nice and kept very clean. Their honeycomb bread is a must! read more

Really disappointed with my experience. I waited about 35 minutes for my order, and they completely forgot my drink. No apology or acknowledgment at all. The service just felt careless. Won't be coming back. read more

The first three times I went there was amazing. Service was great and accurate and they gave us the tea service each time. The last time I went we didn't get the tea service. They handed us the one large mug instead of the teapot and smaller cups. I'm not sure what happened because I ordered exactly the same way. I did the times before. The didn't taste the same either. read more

2nd time coming and I thought I had finally found my go to coffee place to come to in Bakersfield while visiting but the wait time both times has just been ridiculous and just unnecessary. 30 min wait for 2 iced lattes is wild. The syrups are not even homemade so truly don't understand the why. 3 employees both times working on orders and it's not like there's a line out of the door. I really hope someone sees this review and works on a system to help this problem because you will loose customers. The coffee is good and better quality then a lot of places in Bakersfield but with that kind of wait sorry just not worth it. read more

Mokha Cafe - Honeycomb bread with iced caramel macchiato - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Bakersfield, California

First, their honeycomb bread is to die for. Everyone I've shared with has LOVED it. Honeycomb bread is pull apart sweet bread with cream cheese filling (second slide). I highly recommend ordering mufawaar, Yemeni coffee with evaporated milk . 10/10, I love coming here. For those of us on the west side, such a central location between all of my usual stops. A no brainer to stop by. Staff is very nice, parking situation is great with Frugatti's moving down the street. read more

I am a regular here. I stop in often when I'm on the road for work. The WiFi works great, the happy hour is amazing (2-4pm). Quiet enough to focus but the ambiance is warm and it's very clean and smells great. The Sana ani coffee is really good if you're like me and you're into black coffee. I recommend the pistachio latte if you like a milky coffee drink, though. The lemonade is really tasty if you don't like coffee. The honeycomb bread is my go-to, so soft and warm and delicious with the honey on top. All the staff is kind and helpful. I wish more people knew about this gem in town. read more

Visited today for the first time and I am very impressed. I bought an americano and several pastries. I didn't know what any of the baked items were (aside from the baklava), and all of my questions were answered by the friendly woman at the counter. Everything she recommended was delicious. I believe everything is baked in house. In addition to standard coffees, americanos, etc., they had all sorts of more exotic drinks: turkish coffee, saudi coffee, teas, all sorts of interesting things. It looks like they serve larger, tableside versions of some of the drinks for multiple people. I can't wait to go back and try everything! read more

Service was nice and easy I order two of the iced pistachio lattes. I can say this was the BEST coffee I've ever had!!! After leaving I could not stop thinking about it. Definitely coming back to try other items from the menu ! read more

Food very good I love the pastries and the matcha late as well the service very well and friendly.

I've loved this cafe on past visits, and have introduced many friends to its charm. I brought my kids for a special treat after a homeschool study on Turkish culture, but we were turned away from ordering the shareable tea because we arrived 10 minutes before closing. As a small business owner, I'd hope for a little more flexibility in moments like that. It wasn't a big ask, and a small gesture could've made a big impression. read more

First off, I love the ambiance and how cute the coffee shop was. The seating was comfy, the coffee was as delicious and the staff were so friendly. It was my first time I was really looking forward to trying the viral pistachio chocolate bar but I was too late. They had already sold out but I'm definitely going to get my hands on one next time. Just to try it! Overall it was a great experience! Really really loved the pistachio latte. It was so flavorful. And I just love pistachio so it was a 10/10 experience all around for me!!! read more

Stopped by here for a drink and snack for the road. I got the Qishr tea and their honeycomb bread. Cool spot with a beautiful mural. I wasn't greeted at entry which was ok. Maybe they can tell we were out of townies but ‍ the tea was refreshing but the cardamom overpowered that drink. I couldn't taste other notes in there. The honeycomb was hyped in comments IMO. It needed a bit more honey. It was dry towards the middle and bottom and not enough cream cheese. It was a small dollop (small ball that can sit on your thumb nail). If I'm back in town, I don't see myself going back there. read more

Got a pistachio ice latte for the price it wasn't as good as expected, and the customer service, the guy there is rude/cranky mood probably having a bad day but meh wouldn't go back read more

Everything I have tried here is super delicious. Very clean and chic vibe to the place. Definitely a new favorite spot for specialty drinks.

We were driving from LA and wanted to make a pitstop for gas and coffee in Bakersfield. I saw Mokha Cafe and wanted to stop since I've never tried Yemeni coffee. I'm so glad I did. I wanted to try one of their specialty drinks and the woman behind the counter was so nice and helpful. We got the pistachio latte and Mufawaar drinks. Both extremely good and not too sweet. We also got some of their small bite pastries which we enjoyed. I would definitely recommend this place for their drinks, food, and service. The cafe was also decorated really nicely. If I'm in the Bakersfield area I will make it a point to stop by! read more

Went there to get an iced coffee and my cup was filled up halfway with caramel and all i asked for was a little around the cup Gang wanted to give me a heart attack and watch me die of high blood pressure. I didn't know who to be more mad at, the barista who was staring into my soul or the caramel on the bottom of my cup that wouldn't even mix. read more

Not a big coffee fan, but I do love drinking matcha every once in a while so I used to go to Starbucks often. Since I'm trying to boycott, I have been looking for a Starbucks replacement in town and it has been difficult to find, but I went here yesterday and I absolutely loved it! Such a spacious work environment if that's what you're looking for and lots of natural lighting I ordered a regular latè with vanilla sweetener-pretty basic to be safe and it was delish! Not too sweet, not too bitter. I drank it on an empty stomach and my stomach did not hurt like it usually does with coffee. I will definitely be going back to try the rest of the items on their menu! :) ‍ read more

The barista with pink hair was so nice and sweet! She made my coffee remarkably well. They played great music and were super welcoming.

My favorite part of going to Mokha is the decorative glasses/utensils they give out with every order. The pistachio latte is my favorite as well as most of the food items. It keeps me coming back for more and has become my favorite coffee spot in Bakersfield. I hope it never changes! read more
