I've been coming here for over 10 years. Never had an item damaged. Always ready when it's promised. Friendly staff -- local to the community. Have used for laundry, dry cleaning, alterations and repairs. Cannot say enough good things. Happy their process is non-toxic. read more

I went to Dunbrook Cleaners for the first time and I am so delighted with the service I received, that I will go back there. I went to get a jacket hemmed with the hopes of getting it done for Thanksgiving. They went the extra mile in order for me to be able to get my jacket for Thanksgiving. I'm grateful to find a service oriented business. RM read more

Great service and great people. They are incredibly thorough and meticulous with the clothes I have brought in. There was a dress I had completely stained to filth and I honestly had no expectations to get the stains out since I literally let it sit for a week and made no effort to get the stains out. I only took it in because I wanted it cleaned in general, and they called me the next day letting me know they couldn't get the stains out completely yet but wanted more time to try to get it out (I asked for next day service). I let them know it's totally fine for more time since I only needed a different item (pants for my husband) the next day, but that the stains are not a big deal to me since they're pretty set in the dress. They told me they would want to at least try and oh my gosh, the dress looked new! They said they didn't get all of the stains out, but to be honest, I haven't found any stains remaining. I will admit, the price is higher than the dry cleaner I used to go to (provided at a discount through my old company), but the quality I get here is beyond any other cleaners I have been to. My dad used to be a dry cleaner so I know how back breaking and un-profitable this business can be. I honestly feel like their prices are fair and I would not say it's "expensive". I would just classify it as fairly priced for the quality I get. I have high expectations when I bring my clothes here for alterations and cleaning and I know they will be met. They have found a loyal customer in me. read more

Used them a couple times, one for alteration of jeans. The jeans ended up not being altered at the right length (way too long). I could have gone back but it was so bad I just took the pants to a different tailor who fixed my issue. Tried a second time for just dry cleaning a suit. It wasn't until I needed it again for a wedding that I realized the suit shrank from the dry cleaning and doesn't fit anymore.. Nice folks, but two regrettable experiences for me read more

No one has commented on their Tailoring and I am AMAZED. My daughter was measured wrong and Figure Skating costume was big enough to fit two people into. I was expecting it to cost a lot to get it tailored, but the job they did was worth twice the price they charged! The owner even gave me a discount bc his daughter used to figure skate too and he felt bad for a mess-up in sizing. This was professional seamstress work. My beloved tailor retired around covid, now I have a new one!!! Can't say enough about how impressed I am. They even used safety pins to avoid pricking my 10 year old!!! read more

The owner refused to refund me for incorrect alterations. They are also extremely overpriced!!

They did such a great job on my dress. It needed to be dry cleaned and a few of the beads needed to be secured. The only reason they got 4 stars is because they are pretty pricey. read more

Dunbrook Cleaners & Tailors - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Northbrook, Illinois

Prices are real high. His work was great but over $4.00 for one shirt is too much for me. I am retired. Service was great.

I've been in Northbrook for decades and recently tried Dunbrook, the experience was remarkable. My white duvet cover was restored to its original whiteness!!! I had this cleaned at three other cleaners over the years including expensive Zenglers and none of them could remove the yellowing from body oil/sweat. The zipper also broke while it was being cleaned and even though it really wasn't their fault, Steve replaced it no charge. I'll never consider using another cleaners again, wish I would have found him many years ago! read more

My father-in-law passed and left a beautiful white Brioni dinner jacket to my husband, but it had spots. I took it to our local cleaner in Lake Geneva and they could not get the spots out. I read a review that Dunbook Cleaners was good at getting spots out so I brought it to them. The owner was so nice and said he couldn't promise, but would try. He got the stains out!! The jacket looks brand new! I would highly recommend this cleaners to anyone! Rita read more

I just had the most refreshing experience at Dunbrook Cleaners. You don't generally get this level of customer service and, more importantly honesty, any more these days. I brought in several items and the owner told me that, unfortunately, he could not clean these particular items and told me why. He then proceeded to give me advice as to how I can get them cleaned on my own. He explained that, if he were to send some of the items out to his service provider, not only would it take 3 weeks' time, but it would cost me a lot more money. Though I am sad he could not take care of these items for me, I am grateful for his honesty and his advice. I will recommend Dunbrook Cleaners to everyone I know! read more

Was quoted a price over the phone, confirmed that price by the one altering my pants. Then I go to the registered and he rings me up for almost double. I explained what just happened and I was not given the original quote. Seems like bad business when there are so many other options. read more

I brought in a champagne colored sequined jacket that had red wine spilled all over the front. Steve didn't say yes, but he didn't say no. I left it there with fingers crossed and expecting the worst. When I went in to pick it up, I was greeted by a smile and a clean jacket. I have repeatedly received excellent service at this cleaners; from tailoring to cleaning. (And this wasn't the first time I spilled wine or red sauce!). I highly recommend using this cleaner! read more

They did an excellent job hemming my pants and the pants came back in great shape - clean and wrinkle free. They even worked around my schedule and went out of their way to ensure I had my pants in time for my trip. Will definitely continue coming here! read more

I never take the time to write a review. This Dry Cleaning establishment is truly amazing. I've worked at a hair salon for over 20 years and I've never seen anyone able to get hair dye out of clothing Steve is a magician Not only did he get the dye out of my shirt but everything we send to him comes back perfect. I highly recommend Dunbrook Cleaners!!!!! read more

I recently brought in my grown son's thirty-two year old, stained baby sweater and asked John, the proprietor, if he could work his magic and remove the stains. When I picked up the sweater, it looked like new. John and his staff do on-site, high quality cleaning. Since I pay a bit more for my clothes, I don't mind paying a bit more for the cleaning as the results are always excellent. John employs a talented seamstress, and I have recommended Dunbrook to all my friends. read more

Took some drapery panels to Dunbrook to get hemmed. They did a great job, even steamed them. We're ready early and the price was very fair.

Dunbrook cleaners is the best around! I've had bad experiences elsewhere when having white clothes dry cleaned. At Dunbrook cleaners, white clothes stay white. Steve, the owner, knows what he is doing. You can rest assured that your clothes are in good hands with him. I highly recommend Dunbrook Cleaners. read more

Steve & Dunbrook Cleaners are the best! We love supporting a local business. Steve is friendly, welcoming, and accommodating. Dry cleaning always comes back perfect and he will have it ready for you in a day or a week. The tailor is amazing too. One time my dog ate a hole in my down coat in the middle of the winter and he repaired my jacket that SAME day so that I wouldn't be without it. We will support Dunbrook for life!!! read more

I had a bad oil stain on a dress and they got it all out! I was very impressed. Highly recommend going here for your dry cleaning!

Fantastic service. Brought in a silk shirt-tea stains came out. Amazing Love how packaged my shirts are, too. Steve even fixed a missing button on my sport coat without being asked. Thanks!!!! read more

First, Steve is the coolest and nicest dry cleaner proprietor you will meet. Second, I brought in several shirts I was basically going to get rid of because of yellowing collar and armpit stains. They were older shirts, but I thought I would give one last shot. Wow! Steve/Dunbrook resurrected these shirts from the dead. Amazing results. Five stars. Customer service and quality of service. read more

They do a great job cleaning the clothes. They are so friendly and I always have a good experience with them.

Dunbrook Cleaners is the best. The owner Steve seems to know all his customers and amazingly remembers your preferences (jeans creased, lite starch in shirts, etc). Everything is always ready when promised and clothes are always perfectly fresh and pressed well. We wouldn't go anywhere else. read more

If you don't have the time/patience to read this review in its entirety then know that I can't recommend Dunbrook Cleaners & Tailors highly enough; the quality of their work and level of customer service are both excellent. I moved to Wheeling 18 months ago and needed to find a local dry cleaning service; after reading online reviews, it was obvious that Dunbrook is the best option. The face of the company is a gentleman called Steve who is very courteous and professional. On my second visit to Dunbrook, Steve greeted me by name; even after I had not visited Dunbrook for several months Steve still remembered my name, imagine how many customers he must have dealt with in that time. The quality of cleaning is always excellent and ready either on-time or ahead of schedule. I needed to get a shirt cleaned in a hurry and offered to pay more for a quick turn-around but Steve charged me the same amount; no nickel and diming of his customers. I've had some cleaners actually write my name on the inside of shirts; none of that here. Each garment gets its own i.d. tag that is stapled through a button hole or belt loop, nothing to damage or mark your garments. Steve also welcomes the return of his hangers so they can be reused. I'm going to be moving to Chicago in a few days but will continue to patronize Dunbrook Cleaners & Tailors, that should tell you all you need to know about the quality of this business. read more

Steve, the owner, was super helpful and friendly. I needed a very heavily beaded bridesmaid dress altered, and he had it done in about a week's time. He even gave me a break on the price (lots of beads = lots of $). This will definitely be our go-to dry cleaners! read more

I needed to have the zipper fixed on my Northface long winter coat. I am not a regular customer but was next door for a haircut. I stopped in and they were able and willing to fix my zipper on the spot. He wouldn't charge me for doing it. I highly recommend using them!!! read more

Great place - have always had outstanding results on both cleaning and tailoring. Friendly owners, a real plus for our community.

Let me tell you how amazing this place is! We brought my wife's dress here when we had been told by our normal place there was nothing they could do. Not only did Steve fix it and get it to look like new but he did it ahead of schedule!!! You are a life saver and have earned customers for life! You have to go to this place!!! read more
