CONDITION AND REULTS OF OPERATIONS

          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                         AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    The Company views a strong financial position as a major benefit to
shareholders and emphasizes payment of dividends as part of its financial
plan.  A portion of earnings has consistently been invested to create a
reserve to protect the Company in downturns in business, to capitalize on
opportunities for expansion and modernization and to provide a secure source
of income.  For these reasons, the Company prefers a conservative approach to
investing rather than taking greater risk for possible rapid growth.  During
times of volatility the Company places excess funds primarily in short-term,
relatively liquid investments such as government backed treasury funds or
certificates of deposits.  As a long-standing policy long-term investments
were made in domestically domociled stocks with the preceived potential of
appreciation and safety, primarily telecommunications stocks and in the
Government National Mortgage Association ("Ginnie Mae") fund.

    Cash flow provided by operating activities in fiscal 2008 was
$3,500,000 which was sufficient to meet day-to-day cash needs.  Short-
term investments consisting mainly of Certificates of Deposits, cash
and cash equivalents totaled $8,404,000 at the end of fiscal 2008
compared to $9,013,000 at the end of fiscal 2007.  In the third quarter of
fiscal 2007, a bowling center in Falls Church, Virginia, was temporarily
closed due to roof damage caused by an ice storm.  The building remained
closed for repairs through the first three quarters of fiscal 2008, reopening
on March 31, 2008, the first day of the fiscal fourth quarter.

    During fiscal year 2008, the Company expended approximately $740,000 for
the purchase of entertainment and restaurant equipment.  In May 2008, the
Company purchased and received bowling pins totaling approximately $246,000.

    The Company is seeking property for the development of new bowling centers.
The Company has made no application for third party funding as cash and cash
flows are sufficient to finance all contemplated purchases and to meet short-
term purchase commitments and operating lease commitments.

    The Company's position in marketable equity securities, primarily
telecommunication stocks, is a further source of expansion capital.  These
marketable securities are carried at their fair value on the last day of the
year.  The value of the securities on June 29, 2008 was approximately $4.3
million compared to $6.1 million at July 1, 2007, prior to disposition of
Alltel and Avaya stock.  During the second quarter of fiscal 2008, the Company
received approximately $291,000 from the combination of the sale of its Alltel
holdings and the mandatory conversion of Avaya stock for cash.

    Cash dividends totaling $3.5 million, or $.69 per share, including a $.10
per share special dividend on the 50th anniversary of the opening of Bowl
America's first location, were paid to shareholders during the 2008 fiscal year,
making this the thirty-sixth consecutive year of increased dividends per share.
In June 2008, the Company declared a quarterly $.15 per share dividend paid in
August 2008.  While no factors requiring a change in the dividend rate are yet
apparent, the Board of Directors decides the amount and timing of any dividend
at its quarterly meeting based on its appraisal of the state of the business
and estimate of future opportunities.
                                     -10-
OVERVIEW

     The Company is in the entertainment business which, by its nature, has
ups and downs based on consumer tastes and whims.  About half of our business
comes from the steady league bowlers which appears to have ended its long-term
decline.  The other half is from casual bowlers and groups and generally
depends on the public's discretionary budget dollars and their choices.  An
unstable economy can lead many to participate in entertainment that is close
to home and relatively inexpensive.  Bowling has those advantages.  However
the longer the economy remains unstable, the less willing people are to spend
on other than necessities.  Weather is also a factor, especially for casual
bowlers.  While extreme heat or rainy weather prompt people to look for
indoor activities, heavy snow storms can keep customers from reaching the
centers.  Postponed league games are made up later in the season, but lost
open play income is never recovered.  Fiscal 2009 will be a challenging
period but our response will be helped by having the resources to be able to
promote the sport.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

    Fiscal years 2008 and 2007 each consisted of 52 weeks.  The Company
temporarily closed its existing Falls Church, Virginia, bowling center in
February 2007 when its roof was damaged by an ice storm.  The center reopened
on March 31, 2008.  In fiscal 2008, eighteen centers were in operation for the
first nine months and nineteen centers were operating during the final three
months.  In fiscal 2007, until the ice storm occurred about half-way through
the third quarter, nineteen centers were in operation.  All comparisons in this
discussion and throughout the report are affected by the change in the number
of centers in operation in fiscal years 2008 and 2007.

    Management has not completed its analysis of expected business interruption
insurance recovery for the closed center, but the Company believes it will
recover $800,000 of lost income, included in Operating Revenues, for the period
July 2, 2007 through June 29, 2008.  Estimated insurance recovery of $440,000
was included in the same category in fiscal 2007.  The amounts are net after
expenses and are allocated to Bowling and other and Food, beverage and
merchandise sales.

     The following table sets forth the items in our consolidated summary of
operations for the fiscal years ended June 29, 2008 and July 2, 2007, and the
dollar and percentage changes therein.

Operating Revenues
    Fiscal 2008 saw lower traffic than the prior year resulting in lower
revenues for both bowling and food service sales.  Management believes the
negative impact of rising gasoline prices and uncertain economic conditions
reduced customers' discretionary spending.  In addition, the Falls Church
bowling center was in operation for only three months in fiscal 2008 versus
seven and one-half months in fiscal 2007.  Fiscal year 2007 included a full
year of business at the Bowl America Short Pump location opened in January
2006.  Operating reveunes decreased $1,870,000 in fiscal 2008 and
increased approximately $1,654,000 in fiscal 2007.  Bowling and other revenue
decreased $1,446,000 in fiscal 2008 and increased $1,241,000  in fiscal 2007.
Food, beverage and merchandise sales declined $425,000 in fiscal 2008 and rose
$413,000 in fiscal 2007.

Operating Expenses
    Total operating expenses decreased $691,000 in fiscal 2008 partially due
to the operation of one fewer center for the first three quarters, and
increased $1,071,000 in fiscal 2007, the first full year of operaton for Bowl
America Short Pump.  Costs for employee compensation and benefits were down 2%
in fiscal 2008 and up 5% in the prior year period.  Approximately half the
decrease in fiscal 2008 was the reduced payroll at the Falls Church location.
Included in this category of expense are contributions to our two benefit plans,
both of which are defined contribution plans.  There is no additional obligation
beyond the current year contribution.

    Cost of bowling and other services decreased 1% and increased 3% in fiscal
years 2008 and 2007, respectively.  Maintenance expense decreased 13% in fiscal
2008 and increased 4% in fiscal 2007. Fiscal 2007 included the deductible
expense for Falls Church's roof repair and a major plumbing repair at one
center.  Snow removal expense declined in fiscal 2008.  Supplies expense
dropped 10% in fiscal 2008 and was up 17% in fiscal 2007.  The initial supplies
for new point-of-sale systems purchase in the prior year and entertainment
supplies were responsible for the majority of the increase in fiscal 2007.
Advertising costs decreased $41,000 or 7% in fiscal 2008 compared to a
decrease of $91,000 or 13% in fiscal 2007.  Utility costs were up 3% in fiscal
2008 and 4% in fiscal 2007 primarily as a reult of increased electric costs.

    Rent expense declined 13% in fiscal year 2008 and was up 7% fiscal year 2007
primarily as a result of changes in percentage rent at a leased location.
Insurance expense, excluding health and life, increased 3% in fiscal 2008 and
declined 6% in fiscal 2007.

                                     -12-



    Depreciation expenses decreased $154,000 or 8% in fiscal year 2008 as no
depreciation expense was recorded for Falls Church for the period of its
closure.  Depreciation expense increased $253,000 or 15% in fiscal 2007, the
first full year of operation for the Short Pump location.

    Operating income in fiscal 2008 decreased approximately 21% to $4.3 million
from $5.5 million in fiscal 2007.

Interest and Dividend Income
    Interest and dividend income decreased 6% in fiscal 2008 as a result of
lower interest rates on investments and lower investment balances that were
brought about by lower cash flows from operations, primarily the closure of
Falls Church from February 2007 through March 2008, and the increased dividends
dividends paid by the Company on its Common Stock during the year including the
$.10 per share extra dividend paid in January 2008.  Falls Church is now
contributing to cash flows however interest rates have not increased.  In
fiscal 2007 the same category increased 32% in part from a one-time dividend
on a telecom stock.

Investment Earnings
    Investment earnings of $267,000 on the Alltel and Avaya transactions
mentioned above, were recorded in fiscal 2008.

Income Taxes
    Effective income tax rates for the Company were 35% for fiscal 2008, and
34.4% for fiscal 2007, the difference from statutory rates being primarily for
the partial exclusion of dividends received on investments and the state tax
exemption for interest on U.S. Government obligations.

Net Earnings
    Net earnings in fiscal 2008 were $3.5 million or $.69 per share compared to
$4.2 million or $.82 per share in fiscal 2007.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
    We have identified accounting for marketable investment securities
under SFAS 115 "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
Securities" as a critical accounting policy due to the significance of
the amounts included in our balance sheet.  The Company exercises judgment
in determining the classification of its investment securities as available-
for-sale and in determining their fair value.  The Company records these
investments at their fair value based on quoted market prices with the
unrealized gain or loss recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income,
a component of stockholders' equity, net of deferred taxes.  Additionally,
from time to time the Company must assess whether write-downs are necessary
for other than temporary declines in value.
     We have identified accounting for the impairment of long-lived assets
under SFAS 144 Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets
as a critical accounting policy due to the significance of the amounts included
in our balance sheet under the caption of Land, Buildings and Equipment.  The
Company reviews long-lived assets whenever events or changes indicate that the
carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  In making such evaluations,
the Company compares the expected future cash flows to the carrying amount of
the assets.  An impairment loss equal to the difference between the assets'
fair value and carrying value is recognized when the estimated undiscounted
future cash flows are less than the carrying amount.

                   BOWL AMERICA INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.  ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization
    Bowl America Incorporated is engaged in the operation of 19 bowling
centers, with food and beverage service in each center.  Ten centers are
located in metropolitan Washington D.C., one center in metropolitan
Baltimore, Maryland, one center in metropolitan Orlando, Florida, four
centers in metropolitan Richmond, Virginia, and three centers in metropolitan
Jacksonville, Florida.  These 19 centers contain a total of 756 lanes.
The Company operates in one segment.

Principles of Consolidation
    The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and all of its wholly owned subsidiary corporations.  All significant inter-
company items have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.


Fiscal Year
    The Company's fiscal year ends on the Sunday nearest to June 30.  Fiscal
year 2008 ended June 29, 2008, and fiscal year 2007 ended July 1, 2007.  Fiscal
years 2008 and 2007 each consisted of 52 weeks.

Estimates
    The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
requires management to make estimates and assumptions.  These estimates and
assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period.  Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Significant estimates include the deferred compensation liability for executives
and key employees including survivor benefits, depreciation expense, cash
surrender value of officers' life insurance, the Federal and State income
taxes (current and deferred), and market assumptions used in estimating the
fair value of certain assets such as marketable securities and long-lived
assets.


Revenue Recognition
    The Company records revenue for fees charged for use of bowling lanes and
other facilities at the time the services are provided.  Food, beverage and
merchandise sales are recorded as revenue at the time the product is given to
the customer.

Depreciation and Amortization
    Depreciation and amortization for financial statement purposes are
calculated by use of the straight-line method.  Amortization of leasehold
improvements is calculated over the estimated useful life of the asset or
term of the lease, whichever is shorter.  The categories of property, plant,
and equipment and the ranges of estimated useful lives on which depreciation



                                     -19-
and amortization rates are based are as follows:

              Bowling lanes and equipment             3-10 years
              Building and building improvements     10-39 years
              Leasehold improvements                  5-10 years
              Amusement games                          3-5 years

    Maintenance and repairs and minor replacements are charged to expense when
incurred.  Major replacements and betterments are capitalized.  The accounts
are adjusted for the sale or other disposition of property, and the resulting
gain or loss is credited or charged to income.


Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
    The Company reviews long-lived assets whenever events or changes indicate
that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  In making such
evaluations, the Company compares the expected future cash flows to the
carrying amount of the assets.  An impairment loss, equal to the difference
between the assets' fair value and carrying value, is recognized when
the estimated undiscounted future cash flows are less than the carrying amount.

Dividends
    It is the Company's policy to accrue a dividend liability at the time the
dividends are declared.

Advertising Expense
    It is the Company's policy to expense advertising expenditures as they are
incurred.  The Company's advertising expenses for the years ending June 29,
2008, and July 1, 2007, were $549,548 and $590,767, respectively.

Inventories
    Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method)
or market.  Inventories consist of resale merchandise including food and
beverage and bowling supplies.

Income Taxes
    Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes".  Under this method, deferred income tax liabilities and assets
are based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases
of assets and liabilities, using tax rates currently in effect. A valuation
allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that a deferred tax
asset will not be realized.

Investment Securities
    The Company accounts for its investments in accordance with SFAS No. 115
"Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities".  All of
the Company's readily marketable debt and equity securities are classified as
available-for-sale.  Accordingly these securities are recorded at fair value
with any unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported, net
of deferred taxes, within a separate component of stockholders' equity until
realized.  Realized gains or losses on the sale of debt and equity securities
are reported in earnings and determined using the adjusted cost of the
specific security sold.

                                     -20-

Earnings Per Share
    Earnings per share basic and diluted, have been calculated using the
weighted average number of shares of Class A and Class B common stock
outstanding of 5,135,693, and 5,136,499, for fiscal years 2008 and 2007,
respectively.

Comprehensive Earnings
    In accordance with SFAS No. 130 "Reporting Comprehensive Income", a
consolidated statement of comprehensive earnings reflecting the aggregation
of net earnings and unrealized gain or loss on available-for-sale securities,
the Company's principal components of other comprehensive earnings, has been
presented for each of the two years in the period ended June 29, 2008.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
    For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company
considers money market funds, certificates of deposits, and repurchase
agreements with original maturities of three months or less to be cash
equivalents.  The Company maintains cash accounts which may exceed Federally
insured limits during the year, but does not believe that this results in any
significant credit risk.

Other Current Liabilities
    Other current liabilities include prize fund monies held by the Company
for bowling leagues.  The funds are returned to the leagues at the end of the
league bowling season.  At June 29, 2008, and July 1, 2007 other current
liabilities included $334,785, and $317,973, respectively, in prize fund
monies.

Reclassifications
     Certain previous year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the
current year presentation.

New Accounting Standards
    Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation (FIN) No. 48,
" Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes" was issued in July 2006 and
interprets FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes".  FIN 48 requires all taxpayers to analyze all
material positions they have taken or plan to take in all tax returns that
have been filed or should have been filed with all taxing authorities for all
years still subject to challenge by those taxing authorities.  If the position
taken is "more-likely-than-not" to be sustained by the taxing authority on its
technical merits and if there is more than a 50% likelihood that the position
would be sustained if challenged and considered by the highest court in the
relevant jurisdiction, the tax consequences of that position should be reflected
in the taxpayer's GAAP financial statements.  Earlier proposed interpretations
of SFAS 109 had recommended a "probable" standard for recognition of tax
consequences rather than the "more-likely-than-not" standard finally adopted.
The Company was required to implement FIN 48 on July 2, 2007.  Consequently,
the Company analyzed its tax positions and determined that no material tax
positions recognition criteria are different under the new standard.

    In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, "The Hierarchy of Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles" ("SFAS No. 162").  SFAS No. 162 identifies the


                                     -21-


sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles
used in the preparation of financial statements that are presented in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.  SFAS No. 162 is effective 60
days following approval by the Securities and Exchange Commission of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board's amendments to AU Section 411,
 The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity with Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles.  The Company does not believe this statement will have
a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

    In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 163, "Accounting for Financial
Guarantee Insurance Contracts - An interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60".
SFAS No. 163 requires that an insurance enterprise recognize a claim liability
prior to an event of default when there is evidence that credit deterioration
has occurred in an insured financial obligation.  It also clarifies how
Statement 60 applies to financial guarantee insurance contracts, including the
recognition and measurement to be used to account for premium revenue and
claim liabilities, and requires expanded disclosures about financial guarantee
insurance disclosures about the insurance enterprise's risk-management
activities.  SFAS No. 163 requires that disclosures about the risk-management
activities of the insurance enterprise be effective for the first period
beginning after issuance.  Except for those disclosures, earlier application
is not permitted.  The Company does not believe this statement will have a
material impact on its financial position or results of operations.


2.  CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
    Cash and cash equivalents consisted of the following:

                                              June 29,         July 1,
                                                2008            2007
     Demand deposits and cash on hand       $1,015,558      $  482,667
     Money market funds                        175,645         175,645
     Repurchase agreements                     938,309         889,033
                                             _________       _________

                                            $2,129,512      $1,547,345

    The Company's money market funds invest in short-term government
securities.  The Company's overnight repurchase agreements have restrictions
that allow funds to be invested only in government backed securities.  The
account balances at times exceed federally insured limits.  The Company does
not believe this poses any significant risk.

3.  INVESTMENTS
    The Company's marketable securities are categorized as available-for-sale
securities as defined by SFAS No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in
Debt and Equity Securities".  The cost for marketable securities was determined
using the specific identification method.  The fair values of marketable
securities are estimated based on the quoted market price for those securities.
Short-term investments consist of certificates of deposits and U.S. Treasury
securities with maturities of generally three months to one year.  At June 29,
2008, the fair value of short-term investments was $6,274,274.  At July 1, 2007,
the fair value of short-term investments was $7,465,611.  Non-current
investments are marketable securities which primarily consist of
telecommunications stocks and a mutual fund that invests in mortgage backed
securities.  Unrealized gains and losses are reported as a component of
accumulated other comprehensive earnings in Stockholders' Equity.

As of June 29, 2008, the Company had $21,130 of gross unrealized losses from
its investments in federal agency mortgage backed securities which had a fair
value of $2,673,962.  As of July 1, 2007, $81,216 gross unrealized losses were

                                     -22-

from its investments in federal agency mortgage backed securities which had a
fair value of $2,479,493.

    The following table shows the gross unrealized losses and fair value of the
Company's investments with unrealized losses that are not deemed to be other-
than-temporarily impaired, aggregated by investment category and length of time
that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position,
at June 29, 2008.

              Less Than 12 Months    12 Months or Greater            Total

Mutual fund  $   -       $  -       $2,673,962   $21,130    $2,673,962  $21,130


    During fiscal 2008, the cumulative losses on the Company's investments in
the mutual fund holding mortgage-backed securities, primarily Government
National Mortgage Association ("Ginnie Mae"), decreased by approximately
$60,000 from $80,000 at the end of the previous year to an unrealized loss of
$20,000 as of June 29, 2008.  The value of these investments fluctuate based
upon the market interest rates and credit quality.  To mitigate credit quality
risk, the contractual cash flows of the underlying investments are guaranteed
by an agency of the U.S. government.  Accordingly, it is expected that the
securities would not be settled at a price less than the cost of the Company's
investment.  The Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-
temporarily impaired at June 29, 2008.

     The following table summarizes the cost and approximate fair values of
equity securities available-for-sale as of June 29, 2008, and July 1, 2007
as follows:


                                   Original      Unrealized        Fair
                                     Cost           Gain          Value

    In the year ended June 29, 2008, the Company recorded a pre-tax gain of
$267,237 from the combination of the sale of its holdings in Alltel and the
mandatory conversion of Avaya stock for cash.  In the year ended July 1, 2007,

fiscal years 2008 and 2007 was $1,764,226, and $1,918,595, respectively.
No depreciation expense was recorded for Bowl America Falls Church during
the period when it was closed. The Company includes construction in progress
costs in the bowling lanes and equipment not yet in use category until
completion of the project.  Bowling lanes and equipment not yet in use are
not depreciated.


5.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
    In February 2007, the Company temporarily closed an existing bowling center
in Falls Church, Virginia when its roof was damaged by an ice storm.  The
center reopened on March 31, 2008.  The Company has business interruption
insurance that management believes will cover the lost income of the center
while repairs were being made.  At June 29, 2008, no final settlement of the
loss has taken place.  The Company believes that a reasonable estimate for the
amount to be recovered is $1,240,000 from the date of the roof damage through
June 29, 2008.  In fiscal years 2008 and 2007, $800,000 and $440,000,
respectively, were recognized as revenue and receivables for those amounts are
included in Prepaid expenses and other on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at
June 29, 2008 and July 1, 2007, respectively.  The estimate was based on the
average yearly percentage change in revenues between 2007 fiscal year and 2006
fiscal year multiplied by the prior year earnings of that center and
subtracting the year to date earnings up until the roof collapse.

Lease Commitments
    The Company and its subsidiaries are obligated under long-term real estate
lease agreements for two bowling centers.  Certain of the Company's real
estate leases provide for additional annual rents based upon total gross
revenues and increases in real estate taxes and insurance.

    At June 29, 2008, the minimum fixed rental commitments related to all
non-cancelable leases, were as follows:

           Year Ending

                                                 _______   _______
                                                $277,694  $319,266


Purchase Commitments
    The Company's purchase commitments at June 29, 2008 are for materials,
supplies, services and equipment as part of the normal course of business.

6.  PROFIT-SHARING AND ESOP PLAN
    The Company has two defined contribution plans.  The first is a profit-
sharing plan which, generally, covers all employees who on the last day of the
fiscal year or December 29 have been employed for one year with at least one
thousand hours of service.  The Plan provides for Company contributions as
determined by the Board of Directors.  For the years ended June 29, 2008,
and July 1, 2007, contributions in the amount of $125,000, and $140,000,
respectively, were charged to operating expense.

    Effective March 31, 1987, the Company adopted an Employee Stock Ownership
Plan (ESOP) which generally covers all individuals who were employed at the
end of the fiscal year and had one thousand or more hours of service during
that fiscal year.  The Plan provides for Company contributions as determined
by the Board of Directors.  The value of the Company's contributions to the
Plan for fiscal years 2008 and 2007 was $125,000, and $140,000, respectively.

    The Company has no defined benefit plan or other post retirement plan.

7.  INCOME TAXES
    The significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets and
liabilities were as follows:
                                               June 29,         July 1,
                                                 2008            2007

         Deferred tax liabilities            $2,590,003       $3,347,564

    Income tax expense differs from the amounts computed by applying the U.S.
Federal income tax rate to income before tax for the following reasons:

                              For the Years Ended
                                  2008    2007

8.  STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
    The Class A shares have one vote per share voting power.  The Class B
shares may vote ten votes per share and are convertible to Class A shares at
the option of the stockholder.

    At June 29, 2008, and July 1, 2007, the Company had $39,093 in employee
loans related to the issuance of shares.  These loans are secured by the
shares of the Company's common stock acquired and are full recourse notes.
The notes bear interest at rates of 3 1/2% to 5% and are payable over a term
of three years from the date of the agreements which range from 2007 to 2008.
These employee loans have been recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in
capital.

9. DEFERRED COMPENSATION
   Deferred compensation payable was a total of $54,621 at June 29, 2008, and
$59,224 at July 1, 2007.  The current portion of these amounts is $8,113 at
June 29, 2008, and $7,272 at July 1, 2007, and is included in accrued expenses.

        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


Board of Directors and Stockholders
Bowl America Incorporated
Alexandria, Virginia

We have audited the accompanying consolidated Balance Sheets of Bowl America
Incorporated and Subsidiaries as of June 29, 2008 and July 1, 2007, and the
related Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Earnings,
Stockholders' Equity and Cash Flows for the years then ended.  These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require
that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes
consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for
designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not
for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's
internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such
opinion.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the
amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Bowl
America Incorporated and Subsidiaries as of June 29, 2008 and July 1, 2007,
and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then
ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.

As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company adopted
Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for
Uncertainty in Income Taxes-an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109",
July 2, 2007.
