They really stand behind their words . I had two car done and both look really great after . I also got headlight restoration for one of my car now they look fabulous. Price is more than the Master car wash bit the quality is unmatched. read more

Lion Car Wash absolutely nailed it -- they treated my car like it was their own. For just $45, they gave it a full inside-and-out hand wash and dry that looks showroom fresh. Super friendly crew, great value, and they had me out in under 30 minutes since I was first in line. 10/10 service all around. Coming back for sure! read more

I don't understand how this place is rated 4 out of 5 stars. I came here as a recommendation by a friend who has the exact same car (make, model, interior) as I do. He said they usually charge him $40 and sometimes even $45, so I expected to pay the same amount along with a tip. I parked my car and the male asked me if I've ever been there before. I told him no. He said for my car, it'll be $50. I asked him if prices went up and he said, it went up $5. I proceeded to tell him that my friend goes there all the time with the same exact car and pays him $45. So, he said he'll charge me $45 this time, but it'll be $50 going forward. Yes, it's a $5-$10 difference, but it all seems so misogynistic to me. Keep the prices consistent and don't change it around just because a girl comes in without her husband. I hate places that take advantage of women. I was hoping they'd at least do a good job wiping my car down, but my interior wasn't even wiped down. The front bumper was still dirty. My expectation when paying someone to wash and clean my car for me is that they would do a better job than I would. That's not the case here. I won't be coming back or recommending this place to anyone I know. For reference, I don't like giving bad reviews, but I felt screwed here. read more

Pretty good wash but the Car Guy with tattoos tells me $30 at first for a "Basic Wash" when I go pay the girl charges me more then what the guy told me! What a rip off, I was going to leave a tip too but charging me more than what guy told me at first is outrageous! read more

Went here today for the first time and must say my car looks amazing Only problem is the guy said the car wash was $30 but the girl charged me $40 plus I left $10 tip . I didn't take the receipt but saw on my account I was charged different. read more

Very thorough ... cheaper price wise and they do a much better job than Sparkling Image. It does take a little longer but well worth it. I usually drop off the car and have a burger at the Frosty King. Excellent service. read more

First time going and was very impressed with the out come will be back and have already recommended to others

Still recommend this place two years later!! Friendly fast and great quality work. I haven't found a car wash better than this for a better price. read more

Awesome work by this business. Prices are posted, very honest. The place is behind Vavoline and you would never think it's a hand wash and detail place, but it is so with you getting your car done at this location. Visit the location. You won't be unhappy!!! read more

Very detailed and excellent hand car wash. Took pride in cleaning my car inside and out. Well worth the money.

Best Carwash in town! Im a regular customer here. They provide great and quick services. The price is reasonable and the quality of services are high! Highly recommend it! read more

Called 3 different times for price snd all 3 times he Quoted me $275 for detail snd interior shampoo. But he charged my credit card $375. When I noticed it I called him on it he had gave me a line of hose shit of how he had to do extra work. read more

Dude gave me two different prices for two different services. I chose the one that fit my budget. At the end I was charged for the more expensive one. It's clear he mixed the prices up when communicating them to me. When I brought it up he then tried to blame me. Like it was my fault. Like I purposely chose the expensive one. Seems common from the other reviews. Go somewhere else. read more

Charged me $40 for the worst wash I've ever had. Wouldn't recommend to anyone. Customer service was fine, but was also swarmed with bees just sitting there. read more

Had my truck washed today and they put a pretty good scratch on passenger door I asked what happened they denied they said maybe the grocery store I said no this doesn't go to grocery store it's a work use only it was not there when I arrived.

Horrible customer service . Horrible car wash. I took it in yesterday. But realized today it was still dirty on the outside and dusty and dirt debris inside. I called ahead of time to let them know. They told me to bring it in so they can rewash it. So I brought it in and he's coming to look at the car and I'm explaining to him everything and he's arguing with me that water always stays on the car and I said I wash my own car and I don't get water spots Still draining with dirt on my car after I wash it or dirt from not vacuuming right. I have a new car, it shouldn't look dirty and he just wiped it off with the rag. The seats were dirty so he came in here and wiped it. I said if I knew you were going to do this, I would've just stayed home if you weren't going to wash it again and waste my gas. His lazy ass didn't want to clean it again. Horrible business and customer service. read more

This car wash is OK little overpriced still left wax on the car even after getting detailed had to clean it myself redo a decent car wash but as the clay bar and wax for $275 little overpriced read more

Fast, friendly, and quality work. Workers are always attentive and follow any special instructions or requests. I've only had my vehicles hand washed here. I haven't tried any waxing or detail services, but I wouldn't be hesitant to try Lion when the time comes. read more

Easily the best car wash in Bakersfield and one of the only ones that truly does it by hand. The place is unassuming and you'll miss it if you blink, but follow the Car Wash / Window Tinting flags to get to the right spot. A regular wash for my small 4-door car runs $25 plus tip (ALWAYS TIP), and if it's not busy up it takes about 15-20 minutes. Well worth the time and value when I do not want to wash my car. read more

Im from out of town and randomly chose this location and I'm so happy I did. Great customer service, great thorough attention to detail. I highly recommend Lion Hand Car Wash!! read more

We purchased a used car and it was pretty dirty. We took it to Lion Hand Car Wash and they did an absolutely AMAZING job. The outside of the car looks brand new and they made the leather seats look new too! It was expensive, but 100% worth it! We highly recommend this place! read more

Lion hand car wash is always open and ready for the job! They take the time to clean the cars correctly, and I never have to wait more than an hour (for the basic $40 wash) which includes outside washed/dried, inside vacuumed and wiped down with some tire shine! Rims and windows always look great! Thank you!! read more

Went in and got a great hand wash on my four wheel baby. The people were busy working and stopped to help me. Everyone that I had contact with was professional and friendly. It is hidden off the main road, tucked away in the back. The price was exceptional for the work they did. I could not have had a better experience. read more

Great place for hand car wash I would highly recommend them they take pride in their work on your vehicle. Very busy on weekends best time would be during the week . It's nice to find a place that hand washed and takes pride in their work read more

Brought my Acura to get it washed. The gentleman and woman that washed my car were very thorough. They were both very friendly and did an amazing job. I will definitely be coming back. read more

This is the best Carwash for our area that is often as quick feeling as Cruz thru but without the brush swirl marks. The bonus is having the inside done as well. They are extremely reasonably priced and I love when they detail my car... it looks new, again! Country Boy is right near there and why not plan your lunch or snack time around having your car washed. They remember your car and Welcome us when we pull up. I also had my windows tinted by the shared business space. There is even a lube shop... it's like a one day spa treatment for our car! Highly recommend giving hem a try, thy will not disappoint! read more

I've been going here for 2 years and appreciate them putting a lot of detail into a car wash, they leave my car looking brand new every time. Usually takes 30 minutes for me to get in/out if it's not during a busy time, but if it is busy I'll just drop it off and go run some errands with my mom. read more

I heard good things about this place only to be disappointed. No one could communicate with me. I asked the lady behind the counter how much?? Her only answer was 30 minutes 30 minutes. I said no how much do I owe you for the wash. Again she said 30 minutes. It ended up being $50 and I wasn't impressed at all with the wash job. read more

I would give them 4.5 stars, my truck was very nice after taking it here, they conditioned the leather and it looks brand new. It is a little bit more expensive but every once in a while it's well worth it. read more

This place is great. Not at all visible from the street but locals should be flocking to this place instead of a chain car wash that leaves you to clean the inside yourself. I would give them 6 stars if I could. We've just spent a week on the road with three kids in a minivan so the inside was a pigsty, including tons of sand from the beach and crumbs from multiple meals on the go. $30 for wash and interior cleaning is a deal for how clean they got the car. read more

Tucked behind a couple of auto stores, was a little hard time find but so glad I did! This isn't a fancy operation but man do they do a great job! Hard working, efficient, and very detailed. My car was a mess after several out of town trips. They also did a great job cleaning in the inside and all the areas other places don't take the time to clean - cup holder, dashboard crevices, door handles. I drive a mid sized SUV and totally worth the cost, which I expected to be higher for the level of detail. Super impressed and I will definitely be back. read more

My car needed some TLC ..I was surprised at the cost but My car needed it bad, both interior and exterior so I decided to stay and I'm so glad I did! I was so impressed with how clean they left it. They took out my all weather mats, vacuumed it well and also washed the mats. All tiny finger prints were wiped from the back windows and my son's car seat was also vacuumed and wiped clean. I will definitely be coming back.. read more

New to town, here for business. The Lion Hand Car Wash is amazing 5 stars across the board. Reminds me of the place I typically use back home in Atlanta. It is tucked behind several other businesses. Prompt service, courteous staff, inside & out car wash, with interior cleaning way above average. Dressing of tires and interior if desired! Glad they ask Armor all on the tires is fine. So glad they asked, dressing on the interior not my taste. Won't even seek another choice. Traveling for work I frequent a lot of car washes. The Lion Hand Car Wash is in the top 5% of all car wash facilities or detail shops I've used. BTW while your waiting for your vehicle to be washed look through the hedges, if your in need of a haircut? Stop by the "Early Bird Barbershop". Gary opens at 6:00am Monday thru Saturday. He's an old school barber that cuts what you want and isn't afraid to ask. This is what you want. Intelligent and articulate conversationalist. Here for a few more months so I'll be back to both establishments. Multitasking at it finest. read more

Great service! Very good hand wash as I do care about the up keep of my paint. Very good prices, only $25 for interior and exterior, and they get you in and out quick. Definitely only bringing my car here for hand washes from now on! read more
