Top Hat is the friendliest and kindest place to have cleaning and mending done I've encountered on the peninsula and most probably in my life. Their fees are always more than reasonable and they have mended for me jackets, shirts, pants and backpacks on top of all the dry cleaning I send them.

My go to whenever I need high level work done at a fair price... I've been here a handful of times, often 6+months apart and the owner always recognizes me immediately somehow. You have options in San Mateo but this place is the best, truly.

I have been coming to top hat for a little over a year now and have nothing but good things to say about Chester and Elizabeth and their operation. They are always very friendly, and take great care in their work. They charge a fair price and have always delivered quality.

Really happy with Top Hat's dry cleaning and tailoring services so far! I needed to find a dry cleaner that could clean my vintage clothing with care and they certainly do! Very kind and professional service. Street parking. Fair prices.

Great service! I had 5 pieces dry cleaned at Top Hat Cleaners. My husbands suit (jacket+pants), a dress shirt, and two Chinese dresses. One of my dresses was my Chinese wedding dress, so I was very nervous about bringing it to be cleaned, but when I got there they talked over each item with me and assured me the dress was in good hands. Everything came back fresh and in perfect condition! I would come back again for dry cleaning. Prices are fair and everyone is friendly!

Oh my goodness! I am back praising this business to the heavens!! The business is operated by the brother/sister team of Chester and Elizabeth. First, they are so ethical and customer-focused. Chester previously advised me on the likelihood of stains coming out of a jeweled formal dress. Another cleaner had tried and failed. But at a LOWER price he was successful at bringing a beautiful dress back to life! Other times he has advised me about cleaning vs dry cleaning, always offering the best and most economical approaches--even when it meant he didn't make a profit! And beautiful results when he did to the cleaning. Amazing conscientiousness. Today he once again showed his professionalism and customer-care. I had more than $300 of drapery cleaning to accomplish. He inspected all the material (10panels of lined draperies. The cost to clean each was about $28. ) His conclusion was a simple dryer tumble to remove dust in industrial sized dryers. He inspected all ten panels for stains. The dryer/dust removal option was what he would recommend. Not cleaning or dry cleaning which he could easily do. Wow What a conscientious business man, looking out for the customer, not just his profits. I tried to buy some super heavy duty hangers and bags from Elizabeth. She, like her brother, showed me the weakness of hangers to support each panel and the fragility of dry cleaner bags. She could have just charged me a bunch. She sent me for super heavy duty trash bags. Is this amazing service??? Please everyone! Find something to wash, dry clean or press. This business is a community treasure.

It took me trying 4 other laundry/dry cleaning services before I found Top Hat Cleaners. Elizabeth and her brother run this family owned business that their father started. They have bent over backwards to accommodate my special requests for heavy (real) starched shirts and jeans!! I like my jeans to stand up on their own. LOL. So if you're looking for a family business that really cares about their customers you can look no further!!'

This is my new spot! Just moved up to the area and Top Hat was a recommendation. So far, so good. Elizabeth has helped me both times I've stopped by with a warm and welcoming energy. The process was easy, the prices reasonable and everything came back great. One of my shirts had some stains that had set in pretty well, and they got everything out. I can't speak to more creative requests (I've only taken dress shirts and suits so far), but it definitely looks like they wide tackle a variety of tasks.

Found this place for my boss after her original cleaners closed, and she couldn't have been more pleased with my find. Top Hat Cleaners is like a mom&pop shop that was passed down to two siblings who run it together till this day. I really appreciate their honesty and reasonable prices, even for silk and cashmere blouses! All In all it was a great experience, my boss and I will be coming back for sure.
