    Protein Box. Boiled eggs, grapes, cheese, turkey, and hummus with veggies. So good and so filling too!
    Maria N.

    There is something about saving time that makes things better! Qwik Cafe, for example, makes lunch super quick and easy when you're in a pinch for time! It really, truly IS quick! From snacks (chocolate almonds, trail mix, etc) to desserts (think lemon bars, cake, and brownies). Sandwiches (hot or cold) to salads and half sandwich/half salad lite lunches. Even fruit or protein platters and other sides are available a la cart! There are options a plenty and everything is fresh and appetizing. I've had many options from here after the gym and the service (by service I mean grabbing your dressing and charging you) is as quick and friendly as the food is fresh and tasty. The sandwich options are limited but the quick factor is what makes (and names) this place. Literally grab, pay, and go. If you decide fairly quickly, you should be out in one or two minutes, tops! Definitely worth a stop if you're in a hurry.

    I don't even want to write this review in hopes that the rest of downtown will still go to Sequoia and wait thirty minutes... But I will. Because Quikcafe deserves it. Y'all, this place is everything I want it to be: super quick, easy, friendly, and DELICIOUS. I've had the turkey sandwich which is easily as good as next door, the kale salad, the ham & Brie panini, and the quinoa kale turkey salad. I love it! Same fresh, high quality ingredients. will be back again and again. Though some tips for the staff: -I wish the panini was toasted for much longer! It's like it's in the oven for three seconds and doesn't do anything -maybe more dressing for the salads? One container doesn't even cover half my salad (but I probably don't need it anyway) -CAJUN TURKEY SANDWICH

    Not once in the 20 some odd years of working have I worked in downtown Bakersfield, but that changed this year and with that change came new food spots to conquer. One spot that is definitely one of my go to spots to grab a quick bite is Qwik Café. While I may have an hour for lunch, I don't want to be hanging out in the streets of downtown, I rather eat and relax with a small nap if possible. What I like most about this spot is how quickly things move, you jump in line, grab the food you want and the cashier is efficient in checking you out to be on your merry way. Their offering is not huge but there is a good variety and something for anyone, at least I think so. All sandwiches are cold but some of them can be warmed up like their Turkey Melt. My favorites have been the Turkey Bacon, Tuna Sandwich and their Cobb Salad. While they are quick bites, they are definitely not small portioned unless you opt for the half sandwich, half salad combo but even with that, it seems like a full meal and more. They have Zappo chips, fruit medley's, some desserts and even soup of the day and they are owned/operated by Sequoia Sandwich so you know the quality of them are excellent. As I mentioned previously one of my faves is the Cobb Salad, they jam pack that salad with bacon bits, ham, turkey and fresh veggies and you can't forget about the chopped boiled eggs, that completes it. They do offer several dressings but I only go for Thousand Island so I couldn't tell you exactly what they offer other than ranch and balsalmic. If you are in the downtown area, possibly serving on Jury Duty (LOL), Qwik Café is just a few minutes away with a brisk walk, you don't have to worry about ordering, you and can in and out within 5 minutes or less, all depends if you make fast decisions and be on your way back to enjoy that delicious sandwich, soup and/or salad!

    Store front parking to get you in and out.

    I stopped in here on opening day and was pleasantly surprised with this newest offering from the Sequoia sandwich family. The concept is simple: decent food fast, with hours that reflect the midday lunch crowd. You'll find no made to order items here, just pre-package foods prepared each day in the Sequoia kitchen. Refrigerated cases contain a selection of salads, sandwiches, wraps, and desserts. There isn't any set menu, as they're hoping to rotate offerings. While most items are cold, you can pick up the daily soup. If you're in a hurry, this will likely be one of your new favorite options. Prices are on par with the next door sandwich shop (about $7-8/sandwich). Side salads and chips are available for pick-up at an extra charge. If you're jonesing for something sweeter, they have slices of cheesecake or their big as your head cookies as well. Seating is limited to three tables out front, keeping in line with the concept of get in, get out. Dedicated parking for patrons is also available to maximize efficiency, though I imagine using their sister sandwich shop's dedicated lot across the street would be fine too. Overall, a great new addition to the downtown lunch scene, and a welcome option for those of us on extremely limited schedules.

    Horrible Sandwich!

Of course, I had to try their famous tri-tip sandwich and added a side of fries. The sandwich was loaded with tri-tip, tender, flavorful, and paired perfectly with their BBQ sauce. The fries were a great addition and made the meal even more filling. I also ordered the Southwestern salad with chicken, and when I opened the container, I was honestly impressed by how much food they packed in there. It was huge, fresh, and loaded with chicken, avocado, black beans, corn, peppers, and plenty of toppings. Definitely not one of those salads that leaves you hungry afterward! I also have to give Firestone Grill credit for the sauces. They gave me two large containers of BBQ sauce AND two generous containers of dressing. As someone who hates when restaurants give you one tiny sauce for an entire meal, I appreciated that more than I probably should. No sauce rationing over here! I did takeout this time, but they offer self-seating and have a full bar, so next time I definitely want to dine in, grab a drink, and enjoy the full experience

    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!

This place is not horrible, but it's also not the best sandwich spot in Bakersfield. I want to like this place because the staff has always been so nice, but I just don't go for the sandwiches. The sandwich shop is located in a nice centralized location in Bakersfield. They have a good variety on their menu. My favorite on their menu has to be the chicken poblano soup. If you plan to dine in there's plenty of room for a big party or for just one. It's nice in clean inside. Parking is never an issue because they have a huge parking where they share with all the neighboring establishments. I don't see myself coming back and going out of my way to eat here unless I was meeting up w friends or family that wanted to come here. I'm not big on sandwiches, so it might just be me, so I highly recommend you check it out for yourself.

I would recommend reservations on busy nights. They have a limited offering of wine and beer but good pairings with their menu. My companion ordered the Shrimp & spicy fried rice. The flavor was yummy although a bit too spicy for my companion. I thought it was delicious but it does have a little kick. The shrimp was succulent and the rice was beautifully prepared. I ordered the Salmon Al Diablo. The plating was lovely. The salmon was cooked perfectly. It was a little sauce heavy for me and the flavor of the pineapple just wasn't there.
