You can pick up some cool little things, some vintage, some not here. Super inexpensive... nothing is priced, the cashier of the day kind-of comes up with prices on the fly. A lot like a yard sale. Hours are: Mon through Fri, 12pm to 4 pm.

I also went back today to volunteer, and they gave us a tour around the facility and showed us how everything operates. It was really impressive seeing how much they've grown since they first opened and all the different ways they help the community. I really respect what they're doing and what they're working toward for the community. Definitely would volunteer and help out again.

They'll feed you if you're hungry no questions asked. You just gotta wait your turn. FYI Women and…read morepeople with disabilities or children eat first. So get your ticket and get in line early. I'd say if dinner is the most packed time so get in line early, ideally around 3:30-4:00pm because sometimes they'll run out of the chicken and you'll get the chicken Patties instead of the actual deep fried chicken. There's a lot of homeless people here that will bicker and smoke cigarettes in line while you're waiting. Some of them will smell because they haven't showered but everyone usually calms down when they're in the cafeteria. They need volunteers. If they are short staffed then it takes longer to get fed.

Myself, my personal opinion and first thought was Wow this person will not even own up to slamming the moose lodge. Be your own judge and come see for yourself. I am at moose while I m posting. this review. If I can figure out how to post my pics . So I will just tell you Tracy is today's bartender and she making bloody Mary's like .. well eassist way to put it is Tracy's bloody Mary's even give THe Crest a run for their money. Just picture a tall Bloody Mary, not stingy on alcohol, actually mixed perfect. On top is a strip of bacon , celery, salami, 2 shrimps, 2 and a large pepper in themiddle and 2 squares of diff cheeses. Here's the topper price is $7.50 great margs also same price. lunch served everyday, can't say how other days are but Arnie who cooks on wed thurs and Fri is awesome. The greasy burger they call it because it's cooked like an old fashioned burger - the best. Grilled onions or raw and all the fixings to dress it up comes with fries. And again amazing price only $4 .00. Not a liver fan but people drive from other towns for Arnie's liver and onions. 2 big pieces of liver people swear by. Always other great choices also. Fri night is steak dinner and karioke. Tuesday night is taco Tuesday a big crowd favorite. TVs with sports, pool table shuffleboard. A patio with tv horseshoe pit and great for who smokes. Popcorn available help your self. People here are always comfortable lots of conversation .members are like having a second family. anyone to say anything negative about Glen ( who runs it all) is crazy. Kind, great nature- all good!!!!!!! Talks to all. Also I might add they have one of the most popular bingo in Bakersfield. Great prices and large payouts wed. 6pm. Come early with usual crowd 100, it fills up quick. Always something happening at the Moose!!!!!!!! Become a member. camper and RVpeople can park at any moose across the states!!! It's fun to go visit and have access to meet other moose members, exchange stories and meet other great members. Pismo moose you always run into someone. Sit at the bar with a close ocean view. Hope this gives you a positive vibe, moose is deserving place. Thanks for reading Sharon Unruh .
