Anthony’s Laundry & Dry Cleaners

Ask for their price. They will not tell you unless you ask. They will take a long time to get your stuff back to you. They do a decent job of cleaning, but the price is difficult to justify.

Anthony’s laundry is a life saver. They offer good basic service in an old school atmosphere (with a New school price). I must admit you trade a little efficiency here and there for quality work with a pretty good attention to detail. I have tried cleaners all over Austin in the last 30 years and Anthony’s Clarksville’s very own beats em’ all. When my washing machine went out I started taking all my stuff to Antony’s once a week, drop it off in the AM and that afternoon pick it up, all t-​shirts and boxer shorts and handkerchiefs folded & pressed nice and neat, towels and pillowcases wrapped in brown paper tied up with strings (these are a few of my favorite things), button-​down shirts and pants/​slacks pressed on hangers. Whats not to like??? These nice folks take care of me, and to top it off they are next door to my favorite hang out Nau’s Enfield Drug Store. Both conveniently located in beautiful downtown Clarksville … Without a doubt Austin’s coolest neighborhood. Anthony’s, another reason why Clarksville is like a little town unto itself and a fantastic place to live life.

Absolutely the BEST laundry and dry cleaners in the city of Austin! Never once had a problem, service is fantastic and clothing, bedding, etc. are always in perfect condition! Have used others in Austin, and Anthony’s far exceeds in every way. As someone else posted, Anthony’s is not the closest to my house, but they are so terrific that I drive the extra for that very reason:)

I recently moved from San Francisco and for «acceptable» quality dry cleaning Anthony’s charges 20% more then any bay area dry cleaner. They used safety pins on my silk skirt… thanks for the holes Anthony’s. Many other dry cleaners have done this to my skirts, but the top notch cleaners don’t.
I have low standards for dry cleaners so I may have just left this at 3 stars, except that Anthony’s doesn’t provide receipts. The «quaint» excuse does not fly. They can use handwritten receipts. It’s actually illegal to not provide any sort of receipt upon request, and it puts the customer in a situation where they have no proof or recourse in the event that an item goes missing.
I’ll take my money to a local business that get’s it.

No complaints so far. It’s walkable, not insanely overpriced, and they do a decent job with the very basic dry cleaning I drop off.
They also do wash and fold at $ 2 a pound, which can be a life saver if you don’t have a washer
I do wish they were open on Sundays and that they gave me itemized drop-​off receipts, but the convenience keeps me coming back.

Yes, it is expensive. However, the service is great and they must use some kind of voodoo which allows them to get any stain out of anything. Well, anything which is cotton or wool.
This is my go-​to dry cleaner for cleaning my suits, sweaters, and any other clothing item I really like. Also, as implied above, I take all clothing items with difficult and/​or jeopardizing stains.

A) So close to me they are ridiculously convenient
B) So nice and friendly
C) Carla is an IDIOT for not asking how much all she brought in would cost. That’s not on them. That’s alllllll my fault. I did 3 jackets, a sweater, and my king sized comforter for $ 84. I’m sure that’s the normal price of such things. I just wish I would have inquired first because I do NOT even like my comforter set. It’s just black and so are my cats and well you can follow the logic. Instead of paying approx $ 50 to clean this dopey thing, I’d have taken that money and added another $___.__ and bought a different set.
Ohh well live and learn.
They did a great job and complimented me on my Ganesh shirt (as has every place I’ve been to in Clarksville). I’m sure I’ll be bumping them up another star or so in the future. I’m still reeling at my comforter kerfuffle. You understand.

I am not sure why this establishment has gotten bad reviews from others. I’ve been going here since 1994 and they have been incredible. Not once have they lost any of my clothes or broken any buttons. They finish shirts better than I’ve seen anywhere else, they can wash down pillows and comforters in a huge washer made for that, and you don’t put your clothes on and have that «the cleaner should have changed the chemicals a long time ago» smell.
I even took them 8 irreplaceable quilts that were over 100 years old for washing and they came back perfect. Not any small feat. This is the only place I would trust with that kind of item.

Anthony’s does the best men’s shirt in Austin. No «why aren’t you looking me in the eye?» collar wrinkles. No «Hammer of Thor» lightning crease down the placket. I’ve tried nearly every cleaners in town over the years, and a perfect shirt is hard to do, much less with consistency. I think the majority of their business is men’s cleaning as a result.
If you want starch, be ready, friend, because YOU’LL GET STARCH! You could cut an artery putting on a pair of their medium starched pants. You could play them in a god damn jug band they’re so stiff. I’ve never even seen anyone order the heavy starch. I’m not sure how they could get any more on there.
Yes, they occasionally lose clothing. Yes, they are old school. And yes, they are expensive, but the quality of their men’s shirt is unparalleled. When you put on the last shirt you’ve got for that big meeting and then curse your dry cleaner with a depth and vigor that would offend the great god Odin himself, you’ll know what I mean when I say that’s important.

Rude people. Overpriced. My jacket came back with grease on the collar and they gave me a hard time like it was my fault.
Also…it’s 2008… get a computer. No one needs to wait around in a dry cleaners watching people fumble around while they try to find your clothes.

It’s the own dry cleaners in town that I feel actually gives a damn about their jobs. They are efficient and our clothes always turn out perfectly. We’ve been going there for years now and they’ve never lost anything and I’ve never felt cheated in any way. The downside — this place is expensive. If you’re just bringing in some stuff you don’t really care about (like my inexpensive skirts) don’t bother. If its something you’re particular about… bring it here!

This tried and true Clarksville establishment MAY (?) have lost my best purple shirt, but I’m not holding it against them until I have proof.
Walkable for Clarksville residents, the old school cleaners still uses a rotating contraption where you pull your ticket when you’re done and they’ll retrieve your dry cleaning for you.
NOT cheap, but may be worth the novelty of feeling like you’re operating in the past (with visiting the drug store next door for a malt).
If not in Clarksville, would not recommend, but feel that a place with this much character needs to be cherished.
