I'm a brown bear wash club member for a reason and that reason is because Brown Bear is great, there's always a friendly greeting and smile...every day, every time and at every Brown Bear Car Wash.

Well organized place even though only a few spots are available due to the tiny space. Water jet is fully enough to rinse dirty stains on car.

Manual car wash, they need yo keep 1 attendant at least for so many things can increase their sales.

First experience of manually washing the car. Except for a dryer, which was either not there, or we just could not find it, this car wash was just what we needed on a long drive. Windshield was shining and the entire car was spick and span in under 20 minutes. Had to keep tapping the card to extend the session, but with two people it was a cakewalk. The best part is that this car wash is open 24 hours and it has large vacuums to clean the inside of the car, but we did not use it. I definitely recommend this location and would happily go back again!

Needs to have stronger vacuum for cleaning, other pumps in the area have been changed but not this location. Some are okay as is, others are weaker. Hit or miss.

Easy to use. Takes credit cards -- spent $10 on vacuum and wash-- easy to use and no damage to car from the other types of car wash.

I have been going to this location faithfully for the past 1 year every month (I used to go to the one in Bellevue Crossroads before this). I was drawn to this location since there is usuallyless traffic and the cleanliness has been consistently good. Due to my positive experience, I had also recently left a 5star review with some photos on Google Maps.On my recent visit on Apr 14 however, I was truly displeased. The washer did not have any war/hot water at all. This meant that I had to rinse my car with cold water and the high-pressure soap was also with cold water.I did not think about it too much, however after returning home, I noticed that grime that would have otherwise been washed away was still sticking to the car and there were some scratches caused due to remaining debris that would have, again, been broken away if the water was hot as usual. I know this because I have been doing the same procedure every month for 2+ years with consistent results.One thing that I would like to point out is that the location was unusually busy when I last visited. All the bays were occupied with half of them having one person waiting. I have not seen such a crowd before at this location perhaps because I usually visit later in the day.It is my belief that either the water heaters at the location are not designed to handle such traffic or something was wrong on the particular day. Hope the owners are able to fix things so that people can continue to have wonderful experiences at this location.

It was available on a Sunday evening on my way home from a Medieval Faire in eastern WA. My car was so dirty and covered in dead bugs. I am grateful it was here. I can see out the windows again.

Ok self service spot but better to go elsewhere. I was minding my own business and washing the car and some service attendant came up to me with an attitude and kept asking me over and over again “why did you do that?”. I asked him what he was talking about and he kept repeating the same exact words, extremely rude and irritating.It was only until 3 or 4 back and forths that he pointed out that the washer and brush lines were entangled, which I still have no idea why that is something he had to point out to me, it was easily resolved by taking one of the lines and looping it back around.I guess Brown Bear pays these guys to loiter around instead of actually helping customers.

Bummer there is no drive thru. It's self wash only so I kept looking. Brown Bear let me down this time because I thought they were all drive thru. So I sort of wanted to let folks know in advance, not all Brown Bears are drive thru.

Cost quickly adds up and doesn’t really clean much unless you want to scratch your car with the brush.

A nice self car wash place but no enough option for a person who uses a credit card. I wish I can manage the time without using my card multiple times

Doesn't accept cash so card/EFT only? Also $3 for 4 minutes is unnecessarily long and expensive. Otherwise pretty well maintained being the only self service car wash in Kirkland. 6/10 would eat dinner in the parking lot while watching people use the brush again

It's said 24 hours in Google, but basically, card readers don't let you use the carwash after certain hours.
