Mars Laundromat

About Us

Family-owned. Rooted in Park Slope.

We were built on the people who walked through the door. Over the years, we've watched neighbors become regulars, regulars become friends, and friends move on to new chapters, leaving behind a block that's a little quieter without them.

Our story

Mars Laundromat was founded by a family who came to Brooklyn with very little except a willingness to work hard and a belief that a laundromat could be more than a place you rush in and out of. Years later, that's still the standard we hold ourselves to, every wash, every fold, every interaction.

What we learned throughout the years was that the best part of running a neighborhood laundromat isn't the laundry. It's the people. The regulars who've been coming since the beginning. The families who moved away but still talk about us. The new faces who slowly become familiar ones.

Many years and memories later, while Park Slope has massively changed around us, one thing hasn't: our dedication to those who walk through that door, and the belief that a laundromat can mean more than clean clothes.

The garden out front

If you've walked past our storefront, you've probably noticed it: a small, thriving garden that's become a little landmark on the block. It's lovingly maintained by a family friend who's been tending to it for years, simply because he loves doing it.

Rooted in the neighborhood

We never had a marketing strategy. It happened because people kept coming back, and kept sending their neighbors our way. We are beyond appreciative of the community that has supported us for so many years, and we continue to do our best to pay it forward.

Personal, not automated

A real person reviews and confirms every booking, we don't let software make promises we can't keep.

Consistency you can count on

The same care and attention, whether it's your first order or your five-hundredth.

Proud to be local

Family-owned, with roots in this neighborhood that go back 15 years.
