About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a regular noticed something odd in Maude’s coin return tray—a tiny note, folded into a paper airplane. Curious, he unfolded it to read: ‘Wash your clothes here and win a free coffee!’ Soon enough, more notes started appearing—some with jokes, others promising discounts on future washes. One day, a delivery driver found a note reading: 'Win two free coffees if you bring us your dirtiest shirt!' Turns out, Maude had a secret love for really dirty laundry.
2. One day, while loading her laundry, a little girl noticed something unusual—an old coin rolling across the floor of Maude’s laundromat. Curious, she followed it and found an ancient-looking key hidden beneath one of the washing machines. Excitedly, she showed it to Maude, who smiled knowingly and said, 'Oh, that old thing? It's just our secret entrance to the staff lounge!' The little girl giggled, realizing that sometimes secrets are best left undiscovered.
3. One afternoon, a delivery driver was dropping off boxes when he heard an unusual sound coming from inside. The dryer next to him started humming a familiar tune, as if it were playing along with his favorite song on the radio. Curious, he peered inside and saw that the dryer's door was ajar—revealing a tiny old gramophone spinning gently within. As he approached, the music grew louder, filling the laundromat with the rhythm of an old-timey waltz. Turning to his colleagues, they all burst out laughing, realizing it was just Maude’s eccentric way of keeping things interesting.
4. While sorting clothes one night, a neighbor exclaimed, ‘Did you see what just came out of that dryer?’ Out popped a small green sock, waving its little toe in the air like it was doing some kind of dance. Everyone burst into laughter, including Maude herself, who had no idea where that sock could’ve possibly come from.
