    The food was delicious! I had been going there for years. I had stopped going once they changed their name and stopped serving their delicious tacos. I decided to give them a try again and the burger and fries were good. My only complain was that I had ordered the burgers with cheese and they didn't come with it (we realized once we were done eating lol) but the food was so good, it didn't matter. The cashier girl was friendly and wasn't rude when I kept changing my mind which was a plus since I was indecisive. The place was updated from the lady time I had gone which was over 6 years ago. I just really wish they bring back the tacos!!!

    Menu displayed at their front window

    Ordered the family pack #5 clearly as seen on their menu outside the window. But the girl at the front window didn't have any idea what was going on. She charged me for 2 triple Texas burgers when I wanted the FAMILY PACK #5 which supposed to be 3 1/4 quarter pound burgers not the actually #5 burger. Don't come to this establishment. They don't pay attention and clearly have no fucking idea what menu items they are serving.

    Curly fries, cheese sticks, shrimp, avocado cheeseburger, and salad.... lots of ranch

    Excellent food and service! A few days ago my cousin passed away unexpectedly, Z(owner) invited my aunt and family to eat at Pop's, the food is amazing, even after the dining room was closed, guests still were trying to come in, people ordered at the window and drive-thru. The employees were courteous and kind. Please come support this family owned restaurant. Huge THANK YOU Veronica & Family

    Was in the drive in burger mood! This spot looked the part, so off we drive to Pops on Taft hwy. Not gonna lie, wasn't too impressed on first sight. It was in a pretty ruff looking area. Walked in and dining area was empty so that's usually a bad sign. Looked at the menu and was impressed with all the options. I was sold on the pastrami combo and I upgraded to zucchini sticks and added an ordered of taquitos. My wife got the burger combo and my son the usual chicken strips. We had a little snafu as they forgot wifeys fries. She went to let them know and at first they acted like they didn't believe her- which would've been pretty bad review wise! But luckily someone else over heard and brought my wife her fries. Thank god! First bite on my pastrami was a game changer! So good! Lots of pickles and stuffed with thin sliced pastrami! The zucchini sticks were perfect- crispy and flavorful batter! The taquitos were bomb!! Crispy and a really good avocado salsa. Wife's burger was flavorful and her fries were well seasoned and crispy! This place is in my must visit category! Big tasty portions and very reasonable prices!

    Great food and service! Lots of specials. It does get a bit busy at times. The food is always fresh though.

    Double bacon cheeseburger, single cheeseburger, mushrooms, and chili cheese fries

    I haven't been here for years. The burger was insanely good. The chili fries were awesome. I just loved it here. Mushrooms are good. Root beer float.

    This place is great. The double cheeseburger is good and the shakes don't disappoint. Good quality food, don't let the appearance fool you.

    Great burgers and service, they also have great deals for families. I enjoy their tacos and burritos, but they have a great pastrami.

    Got to get the Pops steak fries. Your arteries might complain but you most definitely won't. Not fine dining, just good grub!

    What can I say? Soooo glad we stopped here at The Botanist for lunch today on our way to Paso…read moreRobles. My husband commented that it made him want to move to Bakersfield which made our server Emily laugh. Limited parking in back and some street parking. We walked in without a reservation at 11:15 on a Friday and were the first customers of the day. Great decor, dim lighting, vintage looking furniture which does not sacrifice comfort for artistry. Our cocktails and meals were spectacular: Botanist Fashioned: 5/5-the brown sugar cinnamon syrup added a spicy bite to each sip which was unexpected and fun. Watermelon Sugar High:4/5-refreshing with watermelon juice freshly made in house and an ice cube with mint frozen in it. Seared cauliflower: 4/5-great appetizer for 2. The crispy chicken sandwich and the Botanist smash burger:5/5-Both had super flavorful pickles and toasted buns which always add a lovely crunch to each bite. If you're ever in Bakersfield and are at least 21, this place is well worth it! We'll hopefully be back someday. Highly recommend!

    I honestly was just looking for some take-out but I had such a good time at the botanist!…read more I love a good moody interior so I sat at the bar and the lovely bartenders were so sweet! I ended up getting a burger, fries, and a mocktail! The food was amazing but, from a student's perspective, I will say it wasn't a cheap eat. I really enjoyed the experience though so I didn't mind the little splurge! :) Would definitely come back here with friend for the apps and drinks!

    This place is amazing. Great service, good vibes, and beautiful art. My friend and I went to eat in…read morethe gallery. Very respectable service and attentive as well. I recommend this place. The food was amazing as well, I got the tri tip melt and my friend got the sweet potatoes and Brussel sprout bowl. Very delicious!!

    A Delicious Thank You to Teachers!…read more What an incredibly thoughtful way to give back to the community! One of our teachers at school entered a drawing for a free catered lunch from Locale Farm to Table, and we were so lucky to win! The drawing was the owner Heather's way of giving back and showing her appreciation for teachers. She was especially touched by our teacher's story, which made the win feel even more meaningful. Many of us who work at the school already dine at Locale and absolutely love the food, so we knew we were in for a treat. Heather brought some of their most popular dishes, including a hot honey goat cheese spread with Pyrenees bread, roasted butternut squash and Brussels sprouts, a fresh garden salad, and a chocolate and strawberry pastry for dessert. Everything was absolutely delicious! What really stood out, though, was how much thought Heather put into making sure everyone could enjoy the meal. She heard that we had some vegetarians among us and went above and beyond by preparing additional dishes without bacon so everyone had plenty to eat. That extra touch meant so much and really showed how genuinely caring and thoughtful she is. Having this incredible meal right before the first day of school was such a special treat. Teachers and school staff work incredibly hard, and feeling appreciated in such a generous way was truly wonderful. Thank you, Heather, for your generosity, kindness, and for supporting our school community! We are so grateful, and, of course, already looking forward to our next visit to Locale!
