A&R Dry Cleaning

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar on the dry cleaner's loading dock—a mysterious box wrapped in brown paper and sealed with twine. Nobody claimed it, and when he mentioned it inside, everyone just shrugged. Finally, an old lady from down the street stopped by one day. She smiled and said, 'Oh that package? I forgot to pick up my suit jacket!' Everyone laughed, realizing they’d been spooked over nothing more than someone’s lost dry cleaning.

2. One afternoon, while picking up his shirts, a regular whispered to the cashier: ‘I swear, my clothes come back smelling like someone’s been hiding moonshine in here.’ The cashier just smiled and nodded knowingly. Later that week, when an excited delivery driver picked up his uniforms, he sniffed suspiciously and asked, 'Hey, is it true you guys clean with moonshine?' The cashier winked and replied, 'Why don’t you try it yourself? It makes your clothes feel brand new!'

3. One day, an A&R employee found a mysterious note taped inside every cleaned garment: ‘Wear me with confidence—you never know when someone will offer you a job!’ Soon enough, everyone in town was wearing their freshly cleaned clothes with a smile, waiting for that lucky break. Even the grumpy old man down the street started showing up to the laundromat, claiming he needed his shirts ‘to impress the next potential mugger.’ The whole town laughed—and A&R Dry Cleaning became famous for more than just its excellent service.

4. In the dusty corner of A&R Dry Cleaning, a small dog often appeared out of nowhere. Every Monday morning, just as the staff arrived, the little mutt would scurry into view, sniffing around the entrance and then dashing off with a strange glint in its eye. One day, an enthusiastic delivery driver named ‘a regular’ brought in his uniform, worried it was too dirty for inspection. As he left, the little dog bounded over, snatched the clean shirt right from under his nose, and raced away down the street. Everyone laughed—even the usually gruff owner called after him, ‘Hey, come back here, you little rascal!’
