Oh, my!!! I always have the best time at this quaint little bistro. The best spots to eat are outdoors in the back covered patio. It’s like dining in your own lovely garden. The sounds of the fountain and the lush plants & vines are so pretty. The waiters & waitresses are super helpful and very kind. All of their salads are excellent, but my favorite is their taco salad: mixed greens, corn, black beans, and a whole bunch of other yumminess all drizzled with their killer balsamic vinaigrette. I’m not talking like«decent» dressing, I’m talking it’s so good you lick your plate and then ask to lick your friends plate. My favorite sandwich is the chicken salad on a croissant: moist chicken with a fab sauce, sprouts, a hint of spice. Ah-mazing! Today, however, it was raining… Time to try the soups! I ordered the special of the day: loaded potato soup in a bread bowl. Oh. My. Creaminess. It’s like the best baked potato all delish in a crispy, buttery bread bowl. My belly is thanking me. Another fantastic tip… Order your dessert before you sit down. The front counter is always displaying the most beautiful sweets. Guys. Like seriously. You’ll want one of every kind: cookies, cupcakes, & pies. This little baker lady is like a magician in the kitchen. My favorite cupcake so far: salted caramel. B.o.m.b!!! K. So you can’t go wrong. Go here.

Cutest place in town! Great outdoor dining! Like being in a beautiful backyard party! Also, absolutely delicious. Several of us had really tasty salads, and the others had sandwiches and soup that they loved. Save room for dessert because their cupcakes are outrageous! Very friendly service!

Bella Rose is the perfect place to have lunch! Their menu has so many delicious soup, salad, and sandwich choices. One of my favorites is the Cobb Salad. Paula’s homemade Balsamic Dressing is the best! Make sure to dine on their patio. It’s such a relaxing and beautiful place to visit with friends or family. Definitely order a cookie or cupcake before leaving or even take a few home. Love this charming café and bakery!

We stopped here for lunch on the way from Los Angeles to Sacramento. Cute little town and the teapot water tower right behind the restaurant is just adorable. The pictures of this place just showed what an adorable little café it was, so we had to check it out. The service was 5 stars for sure, as is the atmosphere, but the food is a three star, so I had to bring it down to four stars. The menu didn’t have a ton of options for vegetarians. The soups all have meat in them. They looked good, but I wish they’d make at least one option daily that doesn’t have meat in it. The sandwiches my husband and son ordered looked really good. My salad was okay. They bread that came with it was good, but I wished there was more of it. It was a Southwest style salad, but oddly, the dressing that came with it was really sweet. I expected it to be tangier, perhaps a little kick, but it was just super sweet, which didn’t seem to match the black beans and corn very well. I would have liked that dressing with an Italian pasta salad, which apparently they have, but I didn’t realize it until later. This place is apparently obsessed with Doritos chips. They put them on top of the soups and the salads. I ordered mine without. I don’t want packaged chips on a freshly made salad, and at that, I certainly don’t want chips covered in fake powdered cheese that is full of MSG. Gross. I highly, highly recommend that they switch to freshly cooked corn chip strips to put on top of their soups and salads. Cooking up a small batch of them each day wouldn’t be that hard, and would significantly improve the quality of the soups and salads. Guests would appreciate it a lot, and it might even save them some money because Doritos are pricey.

Lunch was excellent and so was the service. I had soup and ½ sandwich which both tasty and hit the spot. Very clean café. I would recommend this location to my friends.

Great menu and charming ambiance! I enjoy going here almost weekly. Everything I’ve tried on the menu is delicious and the portions are generously sized. My favorite is the veggie wrap!

Excellent soups and salads! My obsession is their baked goods. I go to this place at least twice a week and buy cupcakes, cookies and tarts! Beautiful outdoor seating and would work well for a special occasion. I believe their main business is catering.

I’ve been here a handful of times since they’ve opened. Usually as a girls day lunch stop. I’ve *never* been disappointed by them. The food is always great and the services is always pleasent. I couldn’t even recommend one thing in particular because everything I’ve tried has been so good.

Such a cute spot for lunch! The outside patio is perfect to dine. Love the fiesta salad and all the homemade soups. Can’t leave without a cookie or a cupcake either! Highly recommend.

As a tour bus guide, it is difficult to find lunch spots that can accommodate a large group and provide a quality product. Bella Rose never disappoints. The ambiance is wonderful in the back garden patio, and the limited menu that is offered to our buses(3 choices of salad, sandwich, or beerock) works perfectly. Paula and her team provide quick, friendly service and really know how to make you feel welcome. When I come by myself, I enjoy the fiesta salad and homemade soups. No meal is complete without a fresh baked cookie or cupcake. You have to try the baked desserts and indulge… you won’t be sad you did! Highly recommended.

This is a great lunch spot. Whenever I want to meet a friend or if we have company in town, we always enjoy a visit here. I have a hard time choosing between the chipotle chicken sandwich and the fiesta salad. The sandwich’s sauce and mix of flavors is addicting. The large size of salad is very large, but I don’t dare leave a bite behind because it’s just too good to waste. During one visit there, I ordered a cupcake because my friend did… oh WOW. It was a salted caramel cupcake and now I know what the fuss is about. I have been missing out!

The BEST croissant sandwich and Chinese chicken salad. I really have never had anything I wasn’t happy with from here. For dessert you can literally try any cupcake and it will be the best cupcake you’ve ever had. My favorites are the pink champagne and salted caramel. They should really go on the show cupcake wars… You will not be disappointed going here. Promise

Looking for a lunch with my friend in Kingsburg and Bella Rose hit the spot. If you are looking for a place to a nice place for a good cup of soup during these cold winter days, their lasagna soup was delicious. I highly recommend it. The restaurant is clean and very cozy and the service was good. Try it next time you are in Kingsburg

Kingsburg is a charming little hamlet known for its Swedish customs, shops, and celebrations. Bella Rose is a charming little cottage-turned-café just off the main street of Draper. It sits among other old homes and you really wouldn’t know it was there unless you had been told to look for it. Definitely a town treasure. The old cottage has been restored and remodeled so that garden seating is available in the front and back yards. The living room/dining room has become the main dining room for the café. The original kitchen for the house sits partially intact, acting as a prep area for the café. Bella Rose has very limited serving hours – 11 to 2 on Tuesdays-Fridays. There is a catering and bakery working out of this space, also, and I gather that is where the majority of the business takes place. The menu is limited to salads and sandwiches which are all very good. Service is impeccable. Because some items are so popular, be prepared to be told that they are out of a dish. Each day has specials as well, so if you really like beerocks, you should plan on going on Thursday. This is definitely a «ladies who lunch» spot. Very feminine décor. Glass top tables, wrought iron chairs, pinks, and blacks and a whole shelf of hats. Positively charming in all aspect.
