    All in 1, Vanilla Latte, Cheese Danish & Baked Cinnamon Roll - Single

    Always busy, made fresh and delicious! Came a few time before and on Mother's day, line was pretty long but went by fast and all the staff was very kind and friendly. The bagel breakfast sandwiches are so good and great for the price! Definitely made fresh to order!

    Stopped in here for a morning treat. I tried the blueberry scone for the first time, it was delicious. The service here was fast and the staff were friendly. I came here after a volunteer from my work recommended this Sugar Twist. The inside has plenty of seating and the freshness of their bakery treat were plenty.

    Sugar Twist is the BEST pastry shop in Bakersfield, California. The service is excellent and friendly. The ambiance is very welcoming and relaxing to have some coffee with pastry. Don't forget to try their flacky cream cheese roll!

    Breakfast Burrito   Bacon
    Jay A.

    Very disappointed in service today at the Calloway location this morning. My wife and I come weekly and never ever have we waited so long to get our order which today was just 1 breakfast bacon burrito. When we finally got it, it looked like a mini burrito, we called it a burrito slider, it was so small. My iPhone is actually bigger than the burrito. Maybe just short staffed, off day or a fluke. We'll be back next week like always and will hopefully have a better experience. FYI- we were not the only disappointed customers, many obvious unhappy faces. Do better, be better and we'll continue to support Sugar Twist.

    We've loved coming here for many years because of the amazing food but the quality of service has been on the decline unfortunately. Today we went to get donuts for a family gathering and the employees were quick to pile all of the donuts on top of each other knowing they were freshly made and extremely wet. This sadly caused all of them to stick together and pull frosting off the others. For how expensive these donuts are, you want them to look as good as they do in the store. Very disappointing.

    Strawberries and Cream Cheese Puff - Single

    I got the strawberry crème puff. It was so decedent and not to sweet! Definitely a yummy treat. They helped me pretty fast even though there was a line when I walked in. It was a cute little pastry shop with the baked goods on display.

    Went to my daughter's eye doctor next door, only to find out that they were closed 2 hours earlier than their normal schedule. So we popped into Sugar Twist located in the same plaza so my daughter can get a an after school snack. She was enticed by the puff pastry stuffed with fresh strawberries and whipped cream. To be extra, she chose the one drizzled with chocolate sauce. Based on the fact that she didn't have a bite left, I would say it was very good. I've had the pleasure of being part of a previous Yelp event here and I can attest to the fact that the pastries are flaky and buttery. I also bought a cannoli which I've had before and it was light and airy.

I went twice to this location two days in a row because I enjoyed it so much. First with a friend and then I had to introduce it to my kids. The coffees and teas are delish and unique, as well as the smoothies and juices (I didn't try those but my kids loved them). We tried a variety of baked goods, the honeycomb bread is sooooo dang good! Filled with little pockets of cream cheese, drizzled with honey, and topped with toasted regular and black sesame seeds (I forgot to take a pic of this one, but I'll add it next time I go). We enjoyed all of the pastries we tried- not a crumb on our plates by the time we were finished! The decor is beautiful and unique. All of the employees super nice and helpful. You can ask them for descriptions or ask for a menu to see details and ingredients. They're open late too, so I think my next visit will be a GNO or a date with my hubby.

The cafe is located in a plaza with ample parking spots, and the employees I interacted with were polite and efficient. I ordered a Turkish coffee and thought it was a great version of the drink; it may have been small in size, but it had a potent flavor. There was a good amount of indoor seating, and I could see this cafe being a fine spot to linger in for a while.

If im clueless let me in on the Vietnamese coffe you know of...anyhoo If you're looking for a caffeine kick, the cold canned Vietnamese coffee will give you a jolt you wouldn't believe. Food-wise, the Peruvian grilled cheese sandwich was flavorful and well made, but I'd recommend asking for the sauce on the side unless you enjoy a messy sandwich. The ham and cheese croffel had great flavor, but it was a little light on the ham and cheese. I think the cropples are better suited in the sweet variety as they seem small incompressants to a ham and cheese croissant someone would purchase for about half that price. In my opinion, it was more of a kid's snack than a meal and not quite worth the price, if you're actually hungry I would go with something else off the menu. Everything was made fresh , you must be patient here , perfection can be slower than your metabolism, so dont go there hangry. During my visit, Hector explained that he envisions Uncharted Adventures as a gathering place for the community. The business frequently hosts weekend vendor markets and local running clubs. Hector also shared he was creating a dedicated Memorial Day wall honoring local veterans, first responders, and teachers, while also working on an outdoor eating area. It's always great to see a Hector and Chris, and the new Adventures they take on. This is one of the few coffee shops in Bako worth checking out, whether you're stopping in for a coffee, a bite to eat, or a community events theyre hosting give em a visit an introduce yourself. You can thank me later. .Overall I would give everything a four and a half Stars but since Yelp doesn't do half Stars I'll give them a five out of five stars. As they deserve a free half star for all of the Uncharted Adventures that they are a part of...lol get it.. nevermind.. bye for now...

I also ordered the almond croissant, which was wonderfully flaky and buttery with just the right amount of almond flavor. It paired well with the coffee and made for a great treat. The real star of the visit, though, was a drink I wasn't even planning to order. The barista offered me a taste of their Vanilla Cream, and it was incredible. It tasted just like flan, smooth, creamy, and sweet! After one sip, I couldn't stop thinking about it. It's the kind of drink that keeps you coming back, and was pleasantly surprised to learn that it was lactose free!

The food is heavily missing flavor,the hummus is disgusting. I can't believe they call that thing hummus, it's an insult to actual dish.. it's almost like it was trying to imitate the real dish, but failed terribly in even attempting to. Their pizza tasted like play-doh and looked very pale. Smitten is at least consistent with one thing, which is their staple: no flavor. One of the breaking points for me was being served food that had someone's HAIR. The restaurant is very expensive for the poor experience they have to offer. I stopped recommending them a long time ago.
