ROCKET SHOP CAFE -

"We are trying to bring something to this side of town," John Harmon said. "We are going full-steam, and going to hire 30 people from this area to work at the Cafe." Bakersfield has needed this project for a long time now.

We are very excited about the restaurant opening of the NEW Rocket Shop Cafe. Ron Paulk and the staff at CSI contractors are building the new Cafe and are excited to be a part in the airport history. The old building and retail store had been in this same location for over 60 years. Everyone who has lived in Bakersfield or has traveled through this part of the OLD 99 freeway as it was once called knows that this is huge step in progress for Bakersfield and the entire aviation community. Pilots from all over the United States are Harmon Rocket builders and are excited to be able to once again fly into L45 for the best "ROCKET" burger.


Located at the Bakersfield Municipal Airport, the Rocket Shop Cafe will feature good old fashioned cooking, just like gramma use to make. Biscuits & gravy, chicken fried steak with all the fix'ins! ...BBQ tri-tip, baked beans, home made peach cobblers...just to name a few things on the menu. With 9 televisions to watch the excitement of your favorite driver on the Nextel Cup Nascar or Busch Series racing schedule. Speed Channel will also keep you occupied while you enjoy your time spent at the Rocket Shop Cafe.
