About this launderette

Baker Street Launderette is a self-service launderette offering comprehensive wash and dry services with multiple machine sizes suitable for everyday laundry, bedding, duvets, and large items. The facility maintains exceptionally clean premises with clear instructions and helpful on-site staff assistance, open seven days a week from 7:30am to 7pm for convenient access. The launderette accepts both coin and card payments, with additional amenities including detergent and fabric conditioner for purchase, a change machine, and ample folding tables. However, customers frequently report concerns about pricing (£5-7 per wash cycle, £1 per 5-6 minutes drying) and significantly underperforming dryers that require excessive spending to adequately dry clothes. Street parking is available nearby, and the proprietor is noted for being personable and supportive, though recent reviews highlight issues with the spin cycle functionality and occasional customer conduct concerns.
