Delicious breakfast with hot coffee. We stopped by at this cafe on our way from Death Valley NP to Lake Tahoe by Hwy395. The cafe can be accessed through backside gate. Stop by for some hot beverage.

Delicious food for a fair price, served up in a cute lil cafe run by very sweet, passionate folks. Pupfish Cafe is kinda embedded into a book store, so you can enter straight from there after parking on the side of the building or enter through the back door which has a parking lot right outside of it.

I ordered the avocado toast with scrambled eggs and I added salmon (for extra $), and it was very good. They legit gave me an entire avocado-worth of slices, which was more than enough. Three people in my group got the waffle sandwich and absolutely loved it. One complained about the syrup embedded into the waffle being too sweet. The other in my group ordered the tuna melt which was loaded with cheese and had a small salad on the side—they also enjoyed it.

There is a restroom inside of the book store, which customers of the restaurant are allowed to use.

Food definitely 5/5 and friendly service with self-serving water and additions for coffee at a station near the seating area = 5/5 for service. Atmosphere was a neatly decorated, modern cafe so also 5/5. Definitely stop here for great food and a nice vibe!

The Pupfish Cafe is located at the back of Spellbinder Books located along Mainstreet in Bishop, CA. The best way to enter is to turn on E Line Street and immediately turn south down an alley and park at the back where you can walk directly into the cafe. They mainly have grilled paninis, salads, and some breakfast options. The paninis are average size and reasonable prices and are good. Nothing fancy but the staff was friendly and the service is quick.

Warm, friendly breakfast cafe inside Spellbinder books. It’s always cozy inside, no matter how cold it is out. The place has the scent of fresh, hot food. Their tea & coffee drinks are tasty and the Norwegian Toast was out of this world. I’m looking forward to trying some of the other Toast items in that menu category!

The food was excellent. We ordered two teas, a salmon toast, and a Nutella toast. The salmon toast was incredible – I haven’t had such delicious salmon and this kind of combination in a long time.

The atmosphere and the café itself were just perfect. It’s a great spot for breakfast or lunch.

This café is The reason I love supporting local businesses. The food was amazing, The drinks were even better! It’s a bit cozy inside, but the service was amazing nonetheless! Will be making this one of our pitstops whenever we are in town.

My husband and I had lunch at Pupfish, our daughter Reccommend it. It’s not a place you will see from the street. It’s small and in a parking lot but has good food. I ordered the grilled cheese sandwich which was very good, it also comes with a small salad. My husband had the turkey sandwich, he really enjoyed it. They have a couple tables outside and about 6 inside, small but quant. The restaurant has a doorway inside that goes right into a library.

The food was great. Only reason they got dinged on service is because they were quite busy and didn't seem to handle it very well. Other than that, great healthy food. I would totally return.
