Keene Cafe

Family owned diner on Hwy 58 between Bakersfield and Tehachapi in the small community of Keene. Great service, fantastic food, great value and very nice people to serve you. Open for breakfast and lunch. I've had most of the items on the menu and always satisfied with the quality and flavor of the meal. Great place to get off the highway and unwind after a long drive.

We are on our way home to Mendocino from a ten day road trip to Wisconsin and back, and our car decided to break down here. Our rescuer won't be here until about 3am so we took a break from sitting in the hot sun and came inside the cafe for a bite to eat.The waitresses are WONDERFUL. Very sweet ladies! My two egg breakfast was amazing. These are absolutely the best hash browns I've ever eaten in my life. If it wasn't so far from home I'd definitely look forward to coming back! As it is, we're definitely going to stop by if we are ever in the area again.

My friends just rode here on a motorcycle trip and had great things to say about their experience.I can't wait to try it

Best staff there and great service. Staff is always in a great mood and go above and beyond for their customers. I love this place and love that's it's right between Tehachapi and Bakersfield so great to stop in for a quick bite.

Stopping here before they close.Their hours are 7:00 to 3:00 pm.All the food is great tasting.They have lots of indoor seating and outdoor seating as well and plenty of shade trees. If you eat outside you can either watch the Kern County Fire Department helicopters takeoff or land or you can watch the trains or the traffic go by.This place also has a large selection of beer and they have mixed drinks as well. They have plenty of breakfast items and plenty of lunch or early dinner options. I highly recommend this restaurant to others.

While on an overlook view, a motorcycle rider told us he had the best breakfast at Keene Cafe. So the next day we took a detour from our route and tried it out. That was the best Huevos con Chorizo I have had in 40 years. Too bad we live so far away or we could eat there more often! Staff friendly and offer welcome hospitality. Coffee was also good.

Clean ,quaint cool spot to stop and have a great breakfast. Or lunch. Right off the hwy58. Usually not busy and service was quick and friendly. We will stop here again. Thanks.

Keene Cafe is a great little spot just outside of Tehachapi. This charming, old-school roadside cafe serves up delicious home-cooked meals. It's the kind of place where you can tell everything is made with care, and the flavors bring that comforting, nostalgic feel. The staff is incredibly friendly, and make you feel right at home, as if you've been coming here for years. It's a bit off the beaten path, but that only adds to its charm--it's clearly a spot where locals gather, and it feels like you're part of a little hidden treasure. If you're passing through or just looking for a laid-back, welcoming place with great food, Keene Café is a great choice!

Excellent food, awesome waitress, quaint cafe close to freeway. Had the country burrito special.

This place really is an area gemstone,and so lucky to have such a fine establishment at this location.The food is really good here and the staff was very friendly and courteous and attentive and I hear a lot of laughter in the café and people having a good time it's clean and I would love to eat here again.
