Wonderful lab. Very small and intimate feel but every employee I've talked to has been super nice and they always go above and beyond to make sure you have a great experience and the scans and development is always great. Best I've got from any local lab. And their film prices are wayyy cheaper than any other photo store I've been too. (But still a bit above internet pricing, but what can you do). I trust them completely with all my film dev and know it's going to be great every time. Also their support rules cuz I had to reach out via email about some order changes and they not only easily remedied it but also answered me on a day the store was supposed to be closed! Above and beyond!

Phenomenal service. It was my first time using a film camera and they walked me through all the essentials I needed to know to get started with it, recommended different film stocks and the uses of them, and generally were just super helpful, informative and generous with their time. Sometimes getting started with cameras is overwhelming but they made it feel so easy to get started by how clearly they talked about the camera and film stocks. Would recommend Bodega Film Lab to ANYONE looking to get started with film for the first time!

I was THRILLED to see the link to my photos show up in my inbox quicker than expected. The turn around time was so fast, and the pictures turned out so good! I’m an amateur, but I am over the moon with their service and quality. Thank you!!

Everyone is always really nice & helpful any time I've gone in! I primarily mail my film in to be developed, & they do get film back within their turnaround time. Locally owned, good people.

This is THEE place to go for all your film and photo processing needs. I live in New York City, where there's a million different film photo processing labs to choose from, but I always send my film in the mail to Bodega Film Lab because the quality of service, and the customer services is truly like no other. Here's why I love them:
As someone who is fairly new to film photography, it can be intimidating. Whenever I go to stores in NYC, they can be very patronizing to amateurs, especially when you ask questions about cameras and services - so I'm reluctant to ask anything. Yet, I had the chance to go to Bodega Film Labs in person while visiting a friend in Pittsburgh, and stopped in to ask some questions about recommendations and services. Both people in the store came up to me with a smile, and happily told me about their favorite film recommendations, and what services I'd need to be developed. They're genuinely so sweet and helpful, which is something that I've never experienced in a film store. When I told them I was visiting, they even gave me a free tote bag! They really care about the photography community that they serve.
On top of this, their stock of film that they sell is exceptional, and no where in the US can compete. They stock European exclusives with filters you cant get in the US, all for retail price. (If I were to buy the film they stock directly from the producers in Europe, I'd have to pay 60$ in shipping alone!) They also have really fun and niche film I haven't seen anywhere else, like pre-exposed rolls overlayed with graphics, and film that completely changes the colors of the photo you took. It really encourages experimentation, which has helped me grow. They are my one stop shop for purchasing film, asking questions and getting my photos developed.
Bodega film labs is the best!!!

Beyond amazing! I had very cool photographs my uncle took in WW2 that I wanted reproduced. I was nervous that they wouldn’t look the way I hoped. I was wrong! I felt heard and it showed in the final product. True professionals with exceptional skill!

This shop is so fun to go into, you never know what else you might discover besides the stocked film and knowledgeable staff.I’ve come in here with camera questions and the staff answered them with no problem (and no fee)! There’s also ton of sweet vintage clothes and accessories which was a huge plus for me.My scans came back promptly and in super high quality, better than what I’ve experienced at other places in town.They also have Club Mate which was a must when I studied abroad in Germany!!! This place was seriously a dream come true I couldn’t believe something like this existed in Pittsburgh <3

Best, coolest spot to get your film developed and buy new camera supplies. There's a great selection of film, from regular to expired to specialty rolls. I am so excited to be shooting film again and it's 100% due to BB's making film + processing services accessible. My negatives seem to be ready in about a week; if you choose to have them scanned in, you'll receive a download link via email. Can't say enough good things about this shop!
