The Dutchess

We're an all-day bakery, café and Burmese-Californian restaurant housed in a 1927-era building on the site of Ojai’s first bakery. Daytime features fresh breads, pastries and seasonal breakfast and lunch fare, while nighttime shifts into an energetic restaurant showcasing Burmese cuisine, alongside farmers’ market-driven cocktails, regional craft beers and small production wines. Everything is crafted from beautiful ingredients, with the majority coming from within 50 miles. The entire restaurant features historic-inspired pieces sourced from local sellers, California flea markets, antique stores and more, all balanced with a fresh, clean and airy look. The extensive and flexible layout makes it a perfect destination for hosting private dinners, cocktail parties, weddings and more, with the back dining room, bar and patio seating up to 125 or the entire restaurant accommodating up to 170 people. The bakery and kitchen can provide catering for your celebrations.
