Anthony's Laundry and Dry Cleaning

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was just another Monday morning at Anthony’s Laundry and Dry Cleaning. A delivery driver rushed in with a mountain of shirts, when suddenly he noticed something strange on one of them—a tiny, handwritten note that read: ‘Please iron me upside down.’ The delivery driver blinked several times, puzzled by the note. He carefully turned the shirt upside down and began ironing it. As he worked, an elderly gentleman from across the street waved and shouted, 'Hey, you’re doing it right!' Turning around, everyone saw that indeed, every other shirt had been folded normally—except for that one mysterious note. Anthony laughed and said, “Welcome to Anthony’s Laundry and Dry Cleaning, where even our most unusual customers get perfect service.”

2. One day, while a delivery driver was unloading shirts from the truck, he noticed an old lady peering through the window of Anthony’s Laundry. She kept muttering something about ‘perfectly pressed pants’ and pointing towards the skylight. When asked what she meant, she replied with a smile: ‘I saw them dancing there last night!’ The delivery driver shrugged it off as just another quirky customer until his colleague mentioned seeing her shadowy figure in the shop’s surveillance footage that evening. The next morning, everyone at Anthony’s found themselves wearing freshly laundered clothes—all neatly arranged with tiny paper cranes attached to each item. A note read: 'Thank you for your perfect service!' Turns out, the old lady was a retired origami artist who believed that perfectly folded garments brought good luck.'

3. While loading shirts into the dryer one afternoon, a delivery driver muttered under his breath, ‘I hope these don’t turn out like last week’s batch.’ And indeed, when the customer picked up her clothes, she found them not only perfectly clean but also suspiciously well-pressed—too perfect for anyone’s taste. Upon returning home, she noticed that every button on her blouse was meticulously aligned, even though it had been mixed with random shirts from other customers. When asked by a neighbor if she liked the new look, she replied sheepishly, 'It’s a little too uniform, don't you think?'

4. It was an ordinary Tuesday afternoon when a little girl walked into Anthony’s Laundry and Dry Cleaning. As she approached the counter, her eyes widened in surprise—was that really a sock dancing on the drying rack? The owner, Mr. Anthony, looked up with a smile and said, ‘Ah, hello there! That’s just old Sammy, our resident sock who loves to dance.’ The little girl giggled as Mr. Anthony continued, ‘He’s been entertaining customers for years now.’ And so, another ordinary day turned extraordinary, thanks to a friendly sock named Sammy.
