Cameo Cleaners

In my constant search for a go-​to dry cleaner I stumbled upon this little gem in downtown West Haven. I called one afternoon to get a sense of their pricing and when I was told that they’d clean a suit for $ 11 I figured I’d give them a shot. This turned out to be an excellent decision. The suit came out pristine, and it only took a couple days to clean. Additionally, if you pre-​pay for your cleaning they take 20% off the total charge, making their already affordable pricing an even sweeter deal. On my second visit I decided to toss them a curveball and brought in two jerseys (hockey & football), a hat and a blazer. The jerseys had food and drink stains all over and the hat had seen a few too many game days – I thought they were beyond saving. I came back in a few days later and everything looked almost new. It was a pleasant surprise and I knew I had found a winner. My latest visit is what inspired me to write this review. I brought in a pair of leather wingtips that took a beating one Saturday night. I came very close to taking the hit and buying a new pair because they’re my favorite shoes. Instead, I brought them down to Cameo because according to the signs in the store they’ll clean anything and everything. Those signs should be taken quite literally because my shoes look almost brand spankin new! To top it off the cost of the shoe cleaning was only $ 8. That’s what sealed the deal for me. Excellent pricing, fast, friendly and thorough service, and a convenient location make Cameo Cleaners a winner. If you have something delicate that needs cleaning, I highly recommend you bring it to Cameo Cleaners. They’ll get the job done and it’ll cost a fraction of what you’d spend in New Haven. They also do wash and fold laundry at 99¢ a lb.
