It is always clean and there are enough machines available. The little cafe for coffee or a bite is a lovely addition. It is my favourite coin laundry.

High quality and reliable machines, there’s no humidity in the air (unlike many other laundromats) and the customers are super friendly making it an excellent place to chill while doing your laundry.

I’m always excited to get home and put my freshly cleaned and dried clothes on, can’t beat that crispy warm feeling I don’t think I can go back to my home washer/dryer.

This is the best laundromat/launderette I have used I love it. Love. I never thought I’d be so passionate about a laundromat! Haha. But it’s really lovely. It’s a relaxed place. It’s friendly. It’s just a really nice space to do your washing.

Always a hassle getting change for the machines, not here though, it's coinless. Laundry powder is provided free. WiFi and cafe expresso coffee while you wait.

The best laundromat I've ever used. The fact that it's not dark and dingy is amazing, but the deal-sealer for me is that you can pay by card. As someone who's travelled down from Sydney for work and had clothes in need of a wash from both day-to-day use and hiking, this place was exactly what I was after. Many thanks!

Hands down one of the best laundromats I've been to. Very easy to use and pay machines/powder station is super clean, they use the latest technology and my queen size duvet managed to fit in their medium sized washing machine! Cafe that's inside too is amazing (try their toasties!) will definitely return.

Actually, we only go here to eat from the food outlet at the front. I do like some of the features on the laundromat though, especially if the Cafe is open when you go. So 5 stars for the Cafe and 3 for the laundromat for the special features. We live in Berwick and I do not think I would ever use the laundry because of the distance factor.
We found the Cafe after medical treatment in the area, love the food and return if we are in the area. Always pleased with the quality of our food and service.

Nice toastie and really excellent coffee. Everything arrived quickly and the ambiance provided by the hum of washing machines and smell of laundry is surprisingly comforting

Thank you to the Owner, Constance, for helping me navigate the new Tangerine pay system teething problems with FourSquare, and giving me complimentary washing for an issue that was not their fault. Props to them, and a pox on FourSquare for not supporting small businesses.
Thank you Constance.

Easy to use digital system, great facilities with everything you need for washing. Can buy powder for $1, massage chair, Wi-Fi and a hockey table to pass your time.

Really pleased with our first visit here. There are a lot of washing machine sizes to fit your needs, washing powder available for $1, and coffee and bagels while you wait. Has a really pleasant atmosphere, tables to sit at and read, or an air hockey table to pasd the time.

Would be great to come and wash a doona that is too large for your machine at home. Reasonably priced, but perhaps a little expensive to do your everyday washing here. Great for the occasional bed sheets washing.

We have been going to this place for almost a year now with no issues but all of a sudden some stranger decides to move our laundry mid way when it was drying to dry THEIR clothes these cheap dogs. DO NOT TRUST THE PEOPLE AROUND HERE!

I have to apologise for two things, I didn't use the laundromat, and I forgot to take photos.
That said, I was blown away by the aesthetic of the laundromat, and really admired the layout of the venue.

Ok so why am I reviewing with 5 stars? I only visited this venue earlier today because I saw that food was available. The bagels looked phenomenal, but I decided that it was the right time to finally try a Ruben toasted sandwich, my mother had the tuna melt. Both were phenomenal. Genuinely, I have only ever had one other toastie which was god tier, and that involves a drive to Mount Beauty.

The toasted sandwiches we had were superbly filled, toasted, crunchy, flavoursome, and for the price, absolutely absurd value. I already know that when I go for my check up in about 6 weeks from spine surgery, I'll be making myself come and get another sandwich from Your Neighbour.

Oh, another thing. We bought "the last" blueberry muffin. I was absolutely insulted that it's taken me 34 years to taste something so light, fluffy and balanced. I can see why it was the last one, and I can not believe that it wasn't sold out sooner.

The heart of the venue was the staff, however. They were incredibly kind, patient, caring, and ever so welcoming. I really am excited to meet them again, in times when the city isn't locked down.

Genuinely, the whole experience, which was about 15-20 minutes, maybe less, resulted in me having one of the best moments that I've experienced over the last 4 years. Causing me to tear up when I was reflecting on it when I got home.

Sure, it was technically just a toastie, but it really stole my heart.

Promise I'll come for the laundromat if my washing machine breaks down and shall update my review then.

*Edit* Have just revisited the laundromat (sorry I didn't do washing again), but have included some photos of the Ruben toastie which is legitimately god tier. I'm a devotee now, absolutely. Can't wait to visit again in the future!

This was the easiest, most enjoyable laundry service. The machines were fast and the coffee was good. Would recommend!

So easy to use. Handy to have PayPal rather than look for coins. Such a cosy and nice looking venue too

Love doing my laundry here. Getcha cuppa coffee, bring your laptop, plug in at one of the wall sockets, connect to the free wifi. Plus you don't need coins. It has an iPad Touch tap kiosk. Highly recommended.
