Bottoms Up!

You don’t need to board a flight to experience Southern Charm; all you have to do is swing by The Bistro’s bar to indulge.

It seems like just yesterday downtown Bakersfield was welcoming Mama Roomba to the neighborhood, but the locally-owned and -operated restaurant has actually been serving authentic Caribbean fare to hungry diners for five years.

That’s something I tell my out-of-town friends and in most cases, it’s true. Well-known for mouth-watering taffy chew’s, Dewar’s has been a Bakersfield icon for over a hundred years and shows no signs of losing popularity...

Long has the five o’clock rule been abandoned and the stiff traditions of clinking high balls. New fusion cocktails and mixology make for interesting imbibing, and Firehouse has a top-tested drink that is nothing short of intriguing...

Nestled on Wall Street Alley in downtown Bakersfield, Guthrie’s Alley Cat is the type of bar where you could easily spend more than a few hours...especially if you’re ordering the Bloody Mary...

If you feel like royalty, at Café Med, the royal treatment is what you shall receive. Whether you’re out with friends, or looking for something spectacular to sweeten up your evening’s meal, the concocted “luxury-in-a-glass” that is the Godiva Martini is exactly what your heart desires...

Who can resist a margarita? Certainly not you, once you take a sip of Mexicali’s most famous cocktail...

Ethel is one country-western gal that you might not want to tangle with on a Friday night. With a double holster, she’s got a bottle of Smirnoff on one side and hefty bottle of whiskey on the other.

You don’t need boxing gloves if you’re looking for a total knock-out, just swing by Noriega’s and take on the traditional Basque Picon Punch.

It's a man's world, so you shouldn't settle for tutti-frutti drinks. Here's something that will put hair on your chest.
