About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a regular noticed an old, dusty hat sitting on the counter of McB’s Laundromat. Curious, he picked it up and found a note inside with just one word scribbled on it: ‘Try.’ Smiling, our guy decided to give it a shot. He placed the hat in the nearest machine, pressed random buttons, and walked away whistling. Later that day, while collecting his clothes, he found not only his items but also several bags full of clean laundry—all neatly folded and smelling fresh. Turns out, someone had left their business card behind too: 'McB’s Laundromat – Your Clothes Are In Good Hands!'

2. At dawn, when McB’s Laundromat should’ve been empty, a delivery driver found a mysterious box wrapped in brown paper near the entrance. Curious, he opened it and discovered inside only an old pair of socks with a note scribbled on them: ‘Wash me next time.’ Turns out, it was just a prank from a neighbor who loved practical jokes.

3. Who keeps leaving that strange coin in the washing machine? It turned out to be a neighborhood prankster who was leaving those coins as a friendly reminder for everyone to pay their laundry on time. Since then, McB’s Laundromat has become known not just for clean clothes but also for its mysterious coin tradition.

4. At dusk, while loading clothes into the machines, a delivery driver spotted something odd—a small, rusted key hidden among the dryer lint. Intrigued, he picked it up and noticed an old address tag scratched on one side. Curiosity piqued, he brought it inside. Later that night, his neighbor popped in for some last-minute washing. ‘Hey,’ she said, eyeing the key, ‘I’ve been meaning to ask—do you know whose house that key belongs to?’ Turns out, it was hers, lost years ago.
