    Our go-to breakfast spot!! The food and service are both amazing here!! You will not be disappointed! Our coffee cup was never empty, and the portions were exactly enough.

    We stopped for a quick lunch and had the grilled chicken sandwich with fries. We sat inside as there was no space on the patio but that wasn’t an issue for us. The sandwich was good and we received a very warm welcome. A friendly local cafe that we would visit again.

    Everything is absolutely delicious. Our server recommended trying it before adding any condiments and he was SO right. I'm very picky with hash browns and I try them everywhere I go. These are now at the very top of my list. The curly fries were equally delicious and the sandwiches were perfection.

    The Worker Bee Café in Carpinteria, CA, is a charming little restaurant that is definitely worth checking out. From the moment you walk in, you'll be greeted with outstanding customer service that will make you feel right at home. The food is equally impressive, with a menu that offers a range of delicious options. For breakfast, I highly recommend ribeye and eggs. The steak was cooked well and had a rich, savory flavor that paired perfectly with the fluffy eggs. The country potatoes were crispy and seasoned just right, adding a nice crunch to the dish. The eggs benedict with toast was another standout dish. The eggs were perfectly poached and the hollandaise sauce had a nice tangy flavor that complemented the dish. The toast was also perfectly toasted, with a nice crunch that added a nice texture to the dish. The waffle and berries are a must-try dish. My daughter always orders this dish and they do a great job here at the Worker Bee Café. The waffle was crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, with just the right amount of sweetness. The fresh berries added a nice tartness that perfectly balanced the sweetness of the waffle. And let's not forget about the mimosas. The full-glass mimosa was a great way to start the day, with a refreshing and delicious flavor that paired perfectly with the breakfast dishes. My wife and I love the mimosas here. It's one of the reasons we keep coming back. Overall, the Worker Bee Café is a great spot for breakfast. The customer service is outstanding, the food is delicious, and the outdoor seating in the back adds a nice touch of charm to the dining experience.

    GREAT HIDDEN GEM !!! AWESOME SERVICE, FOOD, ATMOSPHERE, FAIRLY PRICED. The most beautiful thing about this place is the friendly staff that treat you like family. The owner Rick made us feel like we were family he hadn't seen in ages, even sat down with us and had a cup of coffee and wonderful conversation. The chef knows his craft serving up delicious meals with some in-house creations as well as traditional breakfast, lunch, and dinner for any hungry traveler. They make their own chorizo and the eggs are farm fresh, they also make corned beef from scratch, which is phenomenal! We highly recommend The Worker Bee restaurant and look forward to going there again very soon ⭐♥️⭐♥️⭐♥️⭐♥️⭐

    A great breakfast place. The food was great that everyone enjoyed and service was great. Patio option is nicer than indoor dining for the sunny day. Highly recommend and definitely will come back again.

    What a great find in Carpenteria! We had Avocado toast with eggs and their signature dish, Corned Hash with Eggs. The food was tasty and the staff was super friendly!

    When they say "renowned corned beef" they are not kidding. By far the best I have ever had, and I love diners and always order corned beef. Service was also great and they brought out a nice little book for my kid to read while we waited, which was a cute touch. Highly recommend!

    The food is really good. We had the biscuits and gravy and cornbread beef hash (the corn beef was superb). I also tried the cinnamon roll special, and it was pretty tasty.

    I’ve been here twice, once sitting down to eat and another was take out. Both times the food was great, when I ordered take out, I got one the fattest breakfast burritos I’ve ever had. It’s was so good! The service was awesome both times as well!
