“I love coming here! It feels like a place of refuge, and Joanne, the owner, is incredibly helpful and kind. In addition to having great machines, she also has a sweet and gentle shop dog! Not to mention the turtles in the back. Highly recommend!!”
“They are so great. A friend once invited us to join his laundry pickup and we thought we'd splurge just once, but we haven't looked back. 4 years later+ we are still regulars.
We make some unusual household budgeting choices that prioritize what is good for us. We don't own a car, but we splurge of groceries. We live in a really small unit, but we splurge on having someone pickup our laundry and return it clean and neatly folded the following day.
Get your priorities straight, spend money on what makes you happy.”
“Lottie is always great at greeting people. She offers to help, always going the extra mile even though it is self-service. Lottie is very friendly and welcoming, which makes the Lake Merritt laundromat feel like you're at home. There are many washers and dryers to choose from and various places to sit while waiting and plenty of folding tables. Recently, the laundromat was sold, and the new owner, Ed, is just as nice. For the first time, a washer didn't work for me, and he was able to fix it remotely. He has since updated the machines. I've been coming for years, and they still feel new.
I have to knock it down a bit just due the parking however I like this place enough that when there's not a spot I will just come back another time when a spot is available rather than going to another place.
It's always a great experience, and that's Lottie being on site and setting that tone. Thank you, Lake Merritt laundromat”
“Not thrilled about their pick up process. Very confusing for 1st time goer. Place is out of the way for me. The service provided is amazing. They are very good at cleaning shoes. Even tho it's a drive for me to get here, I will be coming back to have more shoes getting revived and looking new again from here. Heavily reccomend these folks!”
“I agree with the other reviewer: everything about this launderette is excellent. The people are lovely, they do excellent work, the prices are low, and they always remember how I like my clothes done. And when I disappeared for a year with no explanation, they kept my clothes for me the whole time. Eventually they called me just to let me know they still had my clothes.”
“Was hoping I could use card as I didn't have quarters but none of the machine readers worked. Not trying to leave a review just wanting to add info that this seems to be a coin only laundromat rather than accepting card as Google says.”
“James was so friendly from the moment I walked in the door her repaired my jeans button …guess it was a Good Friday! The button he fixed was way more secure on my jeans than the button that came on them brand new…. Amazing repair work!!! Thank you Diamond Cleaners!!!Service: Clothing alterations & repairs”
“Shattuck Cleaners are professional, clean effectively, and the clothes are ready promptly. The service is fairly priced to meet the customer's needs, and Kelly will make you feel that they value your business. I am loyal to Shattuck Cleaners for all my laundry needs and recommend it without hesitation.”

1841 Park Blvd, Oakland“Amazing Laundromat!
I live a short walk and (along with the associated next door cafe) they have provided community-building and supported local artists by hosted music nights outside in their parking lot, social distanced movie nights on the nearby park during the e pandemic, including arranging for projector and screen and bathroom facilities. It’s great to see the staff year after year who know the place like the back of their hand, and Steve, an owned, is a mensch. Much more than a laundromat. Support it.”

“Friendly family owned business, excellent service and very fair price for the area. Alteration is great, the lady took time to explain what works on what garment. They don’t have a tip jar or tip screen like all stores nowadays, yet so deserving!”

1500 E 12th St, Oakland“Love this Laundry!!- Clean-organized-Staff- Clean Restaurant- Plus have large washer for us.Since I found this beautiful and clean laundry I always come here.Great work! Plus love the art work!”
“The best laundromat in town! Buck is the owner. He provides friendly and outstanding service. He's owned the business for many years. It has consistently been clean and well maintained. The prices are very reasonable and it's perfect for bulk loads. My clothes always get clean and I save a lot of time because the dryers are extra hot. Don't be alarmed by high prices for the washing machines because the dryers are free when you wash there. This brings the price to about $1.50 to $3.00 per load including FREE drying. These prices are unbeatable and you can't beat them anywhere! Able Fabric Care is the best. They also offer laundry service and have a restroom on site. Off street parking is convenient and easy. Having a conversation with Buck is a guaranteed way to pick up some old school wisdom!!! This place deserves 10 stars.”
“Larger clean laundromat with tons of machines and dryers. Have never had to wait to do anything, except park sometimes. I like that it's card operated and not coin.”
“It doesn't open super early, which is ok. It's always clean with nearby parking. Cute grocery store and restaurant near by for laundry supplies and lunch/dinner while you wait. ?”

“There are always washers available when I come to this location, they are fast & efficient. I’ve never had any of my clothes smell bad from a dirty washer or anything. 10/10. Decent prices, always triple the time in the dryer at a laundromat or your clothes WILL BE WET. I learned that the difficult way!”
“I discovered family laundry during 2020 they are really friendly courtesy and helpful when I became bedridden they were really nice I love them they have know problem answering my questions I would recommend them in a heartbeat I swear by them thank you family laundry”
