Palm Beach Tan

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a regular stopped for his usual coffee and noticed something peculiar on the counter—a small, ornate bottle labeled ‘Special Blend’ that hadn’t been there before. He poured himself a cup of coffee and took a sniff—nothing unusual. But when he added cream, a faint scent of coconut wafted through the air. Curious, he asked the barista where she got such an exotic blend. Turns out it was just her secret recipe: half regular milk, half coconut creamer from the fridge next door. Everyone laughed, including the regular, who now orders both coffees daily—one with the special blend, one without.

2. At dawn, when most salons were still closed, an early riser arrived at Palm Beach Tan. The sun had barely peeked over the horizon as she entered, only to discover that someone had left behind a strange contraption in the corner. Curious, she approached it and found an old hairdryer connected to a makeshift timer. With a giggle, she turned it on—only for her neighbor’s parrot to start screaming ‘Get out! Get out!’ until everyone else arrived for their morning treatments.

3. At dusk, when most beauty salons are quieting down, a delivery driver pulled up to Palm Beach Tan with a mysterious package. As he approached the door, he heard soft laughter coming from inside—unusual for such late hours. Curious, he peeked through the window and saw only empty chairs and soothing music. Just as he was about to leave, an elderly lady emerged, smiling broadly, holding a bottle of sunscreen. ‘Delivery for Palm Beach Tan,’ she said cheerfully, handing it to herself. The delivery driver scratched his head, shook his head, and walked away, muttering something about ‘regulars’.

4. At sunset, when most people were heading home, a jogger passed by Palm Beach Tan and noticed something odd in the reflection of the salon’s window. Upon closer inspection, the jogger saw that the reflection belonged to none other than a delivery driver, who seemed to be doing an impromptu dance routine while applying his sunless tanning lotion. Passersby burst into laughter, thinking it was some kind of bizarre performance art until the delivery guy finished, nodded to himself, and walked off, completely unaware he’d become the talk of the town.
