About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Ace Cleaners & Tailors, a regular once asked the owner why his shirts always came back with perfect creases but no buttons. The owner just smiled and said it was their secret formula. A delivery driver once joked that he’d seen the shirts being cleaned in a special room where there were no buttons allowed. The owner laughed and replied, ‘That’s our little button-free zone!’ Everyone knew it was just a fun story, but it added character to Ace Cleaners’ charm.

2. A delivery driver arrived one morning with an unusual package—a large box wrapped in brown paper. As he approached Ace Cleaners & Tailors, he noticed the sign above the door seemed to move slightly whenever he shifted the box. Curious, he set down the box and peered closer at the sign. It read ‘Open’—but only when he wasn’t looking directly at it. The delivery driver shook his head, shrugged, and went on his way, muttering something about strange cleaners. Later that day, a neighbor stopped by to pick up some shirts and asked if they had any special effects. The owner grinned and replied, ‘Just ask for our moving sign!’

3. At Ace Cleaners & Tailors, a customer exclaimed one day, ‘I can’t believe my pants are already wrinkled after just being cleaned!’ The owner, Mr. Lee, chuckled and replied, ‘Sir, our cleaners work so quickly that sometimes they press your clothes before you even leave!’ A delivery driver then piped up, ‘That explains why I always find my shirts ironed when I pick them up!’ The whole place erupted in laughter, and soon everyone was joking about how Ace Cleaners must be using magic presses.

4. At Ace Cleaners & Tailors, a neighbor once wondered aloud why their freshly cleaned pants seemed to be whispering his secrets back home. Another customer claimed that after dropping off her delicate blouse, she found herself humming the same tune throughout the day—only to realize it was the ironing song playing in the background! A delivery driver even reported seeing an old lady pointing at her clean shirt and saying, ‘That’s mine!’ before realizing it wasn’t hers.
