Mr. Lube

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. Late one night, as Mr. Lube’s mechanic was closing up shop, he heard an odd humming noise coming from under the hood of a parked car. Curious, he popped open the bonnet and saw nothing out of the ordinary—until he sniffed the air and caught a whiff of freshly brewed coffee. The mechanic smiled, realizing it must be some clever prankster having fun with him. He closed the bonnet and went inside, only to find an empty cup of coffee sitting on the counter. Turning around, he saw a familiar face grinning from behind—a regular who always brought his car in for service. ‘Mr. Lube,’ the man said, winking, ‘you’re getting too old for these tricks!’

2. One morning, while Mr. Lube’s staff was setting up for the day, they noticed a mysterious note taped to the door: ‘Your next customer will be someone you know.’ As the day went on, each mechanic took turns waiting for their fated acquaintance. Finally, an old delivery driver pulled in—none other than Mr. Lube himself! Turns out he’d been meaning to get his brakes checked for weeks but kept forgetting. Everyone had a good laugh over coffee later that afternoon.
