I really like this place -- it's a friendly, neighborhood cleaners that actually does the laundry on site (or at least it looks that way). Everything I've brought in -- shirts, pants, jackets -- has come back looking great. Crisp, clean, and without that heavy "dry-cleaner" smell, which I love because they use green cleaning products instead of harsh chemicals. The shop itself is clean and modern, and the owner, Helen, is super pleasant and welcoming. Turnaround time is quick (a couple of days, sometimes same-day if you go early), and parking is easy in the lot next door. Just a small heads-up: they sometimes staple the plastic garment wrap, so be careful when you tear it off -- I learned that the hard way. Overall, Dapper Cleaners feels like a hidden gem -- reliable, friendly, reasonably priced, and my clothes always come back looking and smelling fresh. I'll definitely keep coming back! read more

I've used Dapper for about 20 years almost weekly. Family run, friendly, and reliable. Whether dry cleaning or washing/starching, a good job is always done, very consistent. Parking is plentiful and easy, even with their recent move & expansion across the street. I enjoy my visits there!! read more

A beautiful job and needed a quick alteration and she couldn't do it because of time crunch but gave me a great referral. Thank you

Avoid this place!!! I brought in a brand new silk blouse with minor makeup spots. It came back with brown stains under the armpits and damaged buttons, which were in immaculate shape before the cleaning. Not only did they charge me for the dry cleaning, but they also offered no compensation for the ruined blouse. I recently moved to Novato and have never had such a poor experience with any other dry cleaner. Extremely disappointing! I would never return and recommend others take advantage of the many other dry cleaners in Marin who will actually take great care of your clothes. A professional dry cleaner covers buttons during cleaning, which this company failed to do. read more

Really nice friendly neighborhood cleaners. One of the great things about it is they actually do your laundry right on site.

After many years, I have had a few sweaters damaged here recently. At first, I thought it might be the result of moths, but the most recent one has two clear holes the same size right next to each other. They are clearly machine-made. Since I know that I did not cause the holes and I noticed these as soon as I unwrapped the packaging, I will not be returning to this cleaner. read more

Nice experience. The owner is pleasant and the interior is clean and modern. I've been to a number of old school cleaners so they get points for freshness. I brought 1 pair of pants and 3 shirts. They clean using green materials and do not use the dry cleaning chemicals that smell so awful when the clothes come back. That was nice and refreshing as I prefer my clothes washed and pressed, not dry cleaned. This was my first time here so I'll leave four stars and add further color and possible review changes as a visit more. Overall solid experience. Just be careful when they wrap the clothes in plastic they staple the plastic clothes. I didn't notice and ripped a hole in my finger. Obviously prior cleaners didn't do that. So when you tear the plastic off be careful. read more

PRICE ALERT Dropped off three shirts today, one mens and two blouses to be laundered. The mens shirt was $3.50 (fine) but the blouses were $7.95 and $8.50! I don't know why women are price gouged so much by this establishment but I'm voting by taking my business elsewhere. Please post alternatives that are fairly priced! read more

Dapper is reliable, quick, personable and has easy parking in the lot next door. (I prefer the almost totally empty lot to the "left" accessed only off Redwood, not the Trader Joes/Starbucks on the "right" lot which can get hectic). I've been using them since way before they moved to the Redwood Blvd. location. I'm not sure how their pricing compares. They've never lost anything and can do same day if it's brought in early (before 7am I think). They've done everything - mens and womens cotton/blend dress and casual shirts/blouses/pants, silk shirts/blouses/pants, mens suits, jackets, rugs and sleeping bags. Sleeping bags are expensive to have cleaned, cleaning could cost the purchase price of the sleeping bag. I recommend trying to find a laundromat and do them yourself. I will continue using Dapper Cleaners. read more

It's new cleaners and they're very professional ~~ I have really bad spot dress after party but it came out new again~ so fresh~~ read more

Dapper Cleaners - Very convenient parking only for cleaner :) - Laundry Services Near Me - Novato, California

By far the best dry cleaning services I've gotten, clothes is always ready when they say it will. Value is unmatched. Highly recommend!

I'm very sure I wrote a positive review for Dapper Cleaners previously, but I don't see it anymore (I guess it got flagged?!). Anyway, back to the review. Dapper Cleaners is as professional and friendly (thanks to Helen, the proprietor) a laundry service can get. I go there semi-frequently to get my shirts/jackets/pants dry-cleaned, and they already know me by face alone. The finished product is clean, without wrinkles, and most importantly (to me at least), without scent. Prices are reasonable and the turn-around is usually just a couple days. read more

very friendly service by Helen. I had a suit that was crumbled up all wrinkled sitting in the corner of my room for a year. The dry cleaning made it looked brand new. I even hung it back in my closet with the wrappers on it. this is the first time ever for me to dry clean as my family is in the same business, meaning I never had to pay or if I went to an uncle's dry cleaning it was be a couple of dollars each item. Not sure if the price is accurate but a little shocking for me. But none the less, I don't live near my family anymore so convenience and speed is necessary. the promised time was on time. read more

When we moved to Novato from San Rafael one concern was finding a local dry cleaner for my weekly needs. Well, we tried Dapper and they have been great. My cleaning is always ready when promised and are flexible if my needs change from week to week (boxed shirts versus on hangers etc.) Highly recommend Dapper and they have plenty of free parking in the adjacent lot. read more

I rarely use a dry cleaners but I feel I have to let everyone know the service I got from this place was terrible. The Small Coat I had cleaned was not cleaned and I think I was charged too much money. It looks like all they did was put it on a hanger and throw some plastic over it. Maybe overcharging because of slow business during covid19 but I will not do business with this place in the future. This is why I rarely use dry cleaners. Fooled me once but not again. From now on I never use any dry cleaners again. I'm done. read more

Great family owned dry cleaning, around Marin forever used to be Holiday now Dapper cleaners. Always on time friendly staff they do it all- using for over five years- lots of choices in Novato but these folks consistently great. Not sure why the move and name change but service still there. read more

Best cleaners in town! Great quality; reasonable pricing; and fast turn around. You can't ask for more. Yet there is more...Kay provides exceptional alterations. Because of my trust in her work, I now buy high end items that I love even if they don't fit perfectly. When Kay is done, no one can tell that the item was altered. WOW!!! Sprinkle all of the above with a world class customer service and you will understand why my family only goes to Dapper Cleaners and Kay. Thank you guys!!! Liliana H. read more

This cleaners spot is legit. Whether I bring them a 3 piece suit, a uniform, leather, sports jerseys or just something old and busted for them to fix- I always get it back in pristine condition, and it's usually ready well before I need it. read more

I've been using their services for years, long before they moved near Trader Joe's. They are professional, polite, reasonable, honest, and helpful. I think they lost some customers who weren't aware of their move. I hope this helps expand their client base. read more

I moved into the area about 2 years ago, and i tried dapper cleaners and have gone no where else since! Great customer service! They have altered a few pair of pants for me and done next day cleaning! So nice and always greeted with a smile, thank you so much for the amazing service! read more

This quality of their work is great. But, the attendant is very abrupt and rude. I will spend my money elsewhere.

Dapper Cleaners is absolutely the best cleaners! A family owned business that is friendly, offers great customer service, they are not only fast but reliable with attention to every detail. We have been using their services for over 5 years and we have been happy with all of their work. We are so grateful to have such great service in Novato! read more

I've been taking our families dry cleaning to Dapper Cleaners for almost five years now and they always do a phenomenal job! Their staff is incredibly friendly and they have such a quick turnaround time. Plus they have dedicated parking spots right out front which is a major convenience. read more

I just picked up my laundry from Dapper Cleaners and they went so above and beyond that I had to leave a review. I was running behind because of traffic and I just had made it to the door just after their closing time and the owners were locking the door. I was turning around to get back in my car when they called to me and reopened the door! I was able to pick up my dry cleaning. They are always so nice and accommodating here. I have seen them help elderly people or people with their hands full to bring their clothes to their car and they always perform their services with a smile! read more

My clothes are an investment for me I like to wear fine fabrics such as silk wool leather and cashmere. The former Holiday Cleaners now Dapper cleaners have done a beautiful job cleaning my clothes for years. That means they last for years and still look great. The owner and his wife are friendly and always smiling. Their Customer service is stellar I highly recommend them. read more

Not only is the quality excellent, but I feel like my business really matters! I'm always greeted with a friendly face. The location is convenient and I have never had an issue with even one article of clothing. I would not hesitate to recommend this place! read more

Great customer service! I use them because they are convenient to where I work. They are quick, efficient and friendly. They have reasonable pricing compared to some other cleaners where I live in the East Bay. I also don't have struggle with parking, like near home. They have a spacious, convenient parking lot right next to them in addition to the street parking. They haven't let me down once, so they get a 5. In fact, I did not mind waiting an extra day for my items since they noticed a stain on one of my shirts after they had already steamed it. They were going to clean it once more paying attention to the stains which I had not noticed either. That is caring about their work and the customer. Keep up the good work! read more

I've been going to them since they moved locations. Friendly service, easy parking, rarely have to wait. Quality is good, no problems with not having my clothes ready or losing clothes, it's always all there on time and clean. read more

We have been using Dapper since their old location in Novato. They've been cleaning our professional clothes for over 20 years and always do a beautiful job. When we moved to Tiburon my husband continued to use Dapper. They're also very nice people!! read more

This is for sure the best dry cleaner I've ever been to!! They had just opened up recently and the person who cleans the clothes is a spot/stain specialist! They've taken off all of my spots, on all of my garments, and the clothes came back feeling fresh and clean! It's a small mom and pops cleaner but the guy sure knows what he is doing. I highly recommend everyone in the area to try the newly opened DAPPER CLEANERS!!! read more

Dapper Cleaners is our "go to" cleaners. We have been customers for 18 years and have never considered going anywhere else. This small family owned business was previously Holiday Cleaners in the Diablo Center. My husbands clothes are always perfect. If he forgets and leaves cash in his pants pockets, it's pinned to our receipt (my bonus for picking up the laundry). In 18 years they have never ruined or lost anything. When I take out a load I'm always offered help! Highly recommend this business. read more

This place deserves more business! We've been going to this dry cleaner since before they moved near Trader Joes and have found that they are always extremely courteous and our clothes always look fantastic and smell fresh. No chemical odor! We've even brought vintage pieces that come back looking so much better than we expect. Very punctual, courteous and conscientious! We won't go to anyone else. read more

I discovered Dapper Cleaners when they moved to their Redwood Blvd. location, near Starbucks. I had been perfectly happy with my previous dry cleaning establishment but now I exclusively use Dapper. They are efficient and do an excellent job. Turnaround is quick and there is never a wait. They are friendly and professional. Love this place. read more

Grand start to a Monday requested pick up in a few hours and she makes it work~~ much much Love indeed Jah! read more

I love cashmere, linen and silk clothing and no one takes better care of my more expensive and fragile items. I was a customer at their former location for many years and am happy to see them in their new space next to Starbucks. Professional, warm customer service, reliable turn-around, first-class attention to pressing and details. I appreciate the opportunity to support an outstanding, family-owned Novato business. read more

This family owned business has excellent customer service! Even my four year old son enjoys stopping their for our cleaning (and he gets a tootsie roll too each time, so a bit of a bribe). The owners are very friendly, do a great job with cleaning and caring for clothes. They are very accommodating, even a few times we needed same day cleaning and came in late, they have always accommodated us. Would recommend them for any cleaning needs. read more

This is a wonderful family who runs this place and they do a predictable level of service that is the best. I highly recommend them.

I highly recommend Dapper Cleaners. I have a high volume of cleaning, laundry and pressing and I have been using them successfully for many years (it was formerly Holiday Cleaners in the Diablo shopping center). They are very helpful, friendly and professional. They have always done excellent work and I have referred many other people to them over the years. They have designated spaces in the new parking lot next to them at the North end of the Trader Joe's shopping center. Try them....you will be very happy!! read more

They get it right everytime whether it is a dress shirt or a comfortable or a wool rug.

This cleaners is wonderful. It is reasonably priced and does excellent work. I bring all my different items there. They are quick at checkout and drop off and have their own parking lot and are next to Starbucks and close to trader Joes. . read more
