A tiny, old-timey bowling alley with big flavor! I came on a busy Monday morning with plenty of bowlers, which was fun for up-close people watching. You enter through the bar. My BLT took a minute to arrive, but was huge and delicious. All food is prepped by the owner's daughter. Pops works the main counter. Great for a family meal or afternoon fun! read more

What a great little local hang out. Proprietor was so welcoming and kind when I stopped in for a break. 8 bowling lanes, amazing food (Check out the Ginormous BLT) and great prices. The community is lucky to have a place to come and enjoy some great times on the lanes. Thank you Sir for a fun afternoon read more

I heard the Pastrami was good but was shocked at just how good it was. This place is very unassuming, it looked closed from the outside. I never would have thought I'd get a better pastrami sandwich than a dozen places in LA/Beverly Hills that have awesome Jewish delis. I never would have gone inside on a regular day but I'm glad I did and I'm tempted to make another trip up just for the sandwich. read more

We had the best time here. Perfect for adults and families. Lots to do for the kids and a great bar. The food was great! We loved all of it. The BLT was a standout but you can't go wrong. The chef takes great care with each order. read more

Mt Mesa Lanes - Fantastic place. Had the best time. Great for adults and families. Wonderful people run the place. The food was really good! Best BLT ever! - Bowling Near Me - Lake Isabella, California

We called ahead to reserve a couple lanes and it was a pleasure to bowl for two 1/2 hours the kids my family and our friends had a time of our lives . The owner was very respectful and even shook my hand before I left. he said "come back again soon "and I assure you when we're up this way will definitely stop by and grab something to eat at the snack bar and pull a couple games . Six adults and seven kids and eight lanes bowling with tons of video games in the arcade! read more

We were passing through the area and checked out the bowling alley. Great little place, with bowling, food and games. Family friendly place.

As far as bowling alleys go, this is your standard fare. The prices are decent and they have all of the staples you would normally expect. The only thing lacking is the atmosphere. The place never seems to get busy for some reason, which makes it oddly quiet. It's a totally solid experience otherwise, though. As far as the food goes: their burgers and pizza are so-so but the onion rings are amazing. I don't know what they do that makes them so special, but I think they are probably the best onion rings I have ever had. read more

Bar pizza is always a toss up. You can either get a soggy thin crust or a burnt cracker. No sauce or over sauced...you get the picture.. But this one was one of the best we've eaten. Made Chicago style with the toppings on the bottom and the cheese on the top. Garlicky, the sauce just the perfect blend of tangy and sweet.. Even cut in the way a true Chicago pie is cut. Thin and crispy crust. Hot enough to burn the face off at first bite. We'll definitely be ordering again. Loved every bite. You can't go wrong with this one. read more

We didn't bowl, but pooled instead! The bowling lanes were occupied due to a scheduled Sunday tournament. But we took the opportunity to play pool instead. And it was a lot of fun! We practically had the whole area to ourselves. One of our best family moments on a three day trip to Kernville and surroundings. I had the rare opportunity to show off my pool skills to my grownups, and they were impressed. The ladies and gentlemen at the place were very nice and friendly. The service was really good. My wife enjoyed their $1 happy hour beers, and we all loved their fried Zucchini with Coke. We couldn't have asked for a better evening... read more

Mt Mesa Lanes - Playing Pool with family - Bowling Near Me - Lake Isabella, California

This place is super cool! The food is amazing. Never disappoints. Owner makes you feel at home. Great staff!

The only reason I'm giving this place a 1 star is because on Dan. He was very pleasant and nice. Debbie on the other hand is a B****! She Was very rude and not friendly! I came to watch my family bowl on league night and I would have rather not came with the shitty service I got. Ditch the attitude Debbie that's not how to treat customers! I probably will never return! This place is not worth my time ever again! read more

What a fun place to spend the evening. Great food on top of great prices. Bring your appetite, you are going to need it, nothing is small. The BLT is two meals for me. The pizza is outstanding. The service is very friendly and efficient. Gabby, Dan and Mike will take care of every need. Keep up the great work. read more

This is the best small bowling alley I have ever been to! I know their schedule is all over, but if you call the center, they will be happy to give you all the hours. They are a family owned and operated alley, and they really take care of the facility. Nice lanes, good food, and clean bathrooms! Dan and his family make me feel welcome everytime I come. Only 8 lanes, so it does get busy. But if you expect that, they have delicious food and cold beer while you wait. Definitely worth the drive. read more

I came here to bowl with my husband and they were only open for the league. It was disappointing. We have been here 4 different times (we visit the area often) and every time they were league only. You should just put a sign on the door that says not open to the public... read more

MT. Mesa Lanes takeout food is the best. Pizza is delicious. Burgers are the best. I've tried them all in the area and MML gets the top rating. Plus, they are affordable. read more

This place is wonderful on all fronts. The food is amazing, especially the pastrami burger. The staff are all really friendly. It's always clean. Prices are more than fair for food and bowling. There's plenty to do including a bar, bowling, air hockey, pool and multiple arcade games. It has an awesome small town family business feel where you're always greeted with a smile and a good song on the juke box. I assure you that you will enjoy your time here. read more

I highly recommend the half pound bacon pastrami cheeseburger. Absolutely phenomenal. The service is impeccable with amazing, hospitable staff. read more

The man at the front desk came over to us and said very rudely, "Can I help you?" and I thought that he was joking so I asked for a game. We were told that we couldn't bowl because a league was coming. We would not have gone 20 minutes out of our way to this place if we would have known that they were closed. The league hours were not posted anywhere, on Facebook or online. I was thoroughly disappointed and would not like to come back again. read more

Small quite bowling alley during the day haven't went in the evening yet. No complaints great owners very helpful. They also have air hockey pool and arcade games. read more

Stopped by to play a few games and pass some time as we are camping in the area for the weekend. Staff is very friendly however caution to POC thinking about coming in. Fellow players are very unwelcoming to outsiders. Felt very "cliquey" and unbeknownst to us (non professional bowlers) there are unwritten rules to bowling. Instead of being polite about it and informing us, they were aggressive when they asked us "to wait for the player at the lane next to you to take their turn before you". In addition To this, they heard us speaking in Spanish and we over heard them yelling and mocking our language. "I need my huevos to make this right now" "Que Rico". In conclusion, just know this is a bowling alley focused on league teams so they take it very seriously. This town is small and nonlocals are not welcomed (especially if you are not white). However the prices are very reasonable and I wish we were here when a different crowd was present. read more

Would not allow apple juice brought from home for 11 month old infant. Choices were soda, lemon-aid or water from snack bar. God forbid the baby food made an appearance would have probably been told to buy a burger and fries! All under the guise of liabilities. Yeah right because snack bar soda and lemon-aid protects you from liabilities more than parent provided juice/beverages. Sounds more like money issues and desperation to me. read more

The guy at the front desk came over to us and with a very snarky tone and said "Can I help you?" And me thinking he was kidding, I asked for a game. In a rude manner he told us we couldn't bowl because a league was coming soon. We wouldn't have gone if they hadn't posted the league hours on their Facebook page stating that it was no longer open to the public. read more

Chris and Dan are such wonderful people. Our first time meeting them and they are so pleasant. Service was excellent and they are so tentative to all their guests. I could see there was a problem with the Air Hockey game and Dan was quick to go fix it. We visited them on New Years Eve and they made such a wonderful impression. We are weekender's and will highly recommend it to all our friends. If you are from out of town, stop by and check it out. read more
