Our Story

Built for the neighborhood.

Bootleggers is Bakersfield's craft beer headquarters — good food, cold drinks, and a welcoming room, on both sides of town.

The east side Bootleggers on Auburn Street

Now open on the east side.

We started on Allen Road with a simple idea: real food, honest drinks, and a room where you always feel welcome. Bakersfield showed up — and kept showing up.

Now we're on the east side too. Our new Auburn Street location gives folks across town a shorter drive, plus a spacious main bar and a private event venue for birthdays, work parties, and celebrations.

Same team, same welcome. Come by for lunch, dinner, happy hour, or the big game.

Craft Beer HQ

Rotating drafts and a beer list built for the way Bakersfield actually drinks.

Game-Day Central

Every big match on the big screens — FIFA, World Cup, and everything in between.
