BAD! :( I haven't been here in a while and it has taken a nose dive. Most of the washers are broken. The two I could use, same size... one didn't give me the extra rinse I paid for and fished 13 minutes sooner than the other one that did do the extra rinse. One dryer gave me 5 minutes and the other gave me 8 minutes. When I brought it to the attention of the attendant, was told, that's just what they do. Additionally, all three dryers had different temperatures so I had to wait for the hottest one for three different loads. The place is no longer clean. The floor and machines are actually dirty, not dusty, but grime and who knows what else on the floors and the machines. Does anyone know if it's under new management...? This place used to be REALLY good... but not currently :( read more

I frequent this location for hemming and am a big fan. I get stuff in before Tuesday and pick it up Friday and the alternations are always top notch. $10 for a pant hem is a great value, especially in the cities. Alterations are sent out, so I always make sure to pin myself and send it pinned so they know the length I need. Laundromat itself is always calm whenever I've stopped by and staff is helpful and responsive. read more

I was in this am, had several loads of another person's laundry. 18/29 washers were out of order 18/30 dryers were out of order every laundry product dispenser was out of order. Floor not clean. I was not impressed with the cleanliness of the clothes I washed, they still smelled. An attendant was helpful. The manager moseyed though a couple times from a back room, didn't do anything, one time telling the attendant she was "so needy". read more

Only like 3 washers were working, I definitely went here 5 years ago and it was great. Place went downhill quickly

I'm staying in Minneapolis for a couple of weeks and needed my laundry done. Rainbow got great reviews so I tried it out. Got there at 8:30 am and dropped off my stuff. Shane was very helpful and friendly. He told me it would be ready before he left at two pm and it was. Shane did a great job of hanging my shifts and separating and individually packing my other items. He then called me to confirm I could pick it up. The only downside is the 10 lb minimum as my pile was smaller but for the quickness and overall convenience, it couldn't be beat. read more

Rainbow Laundry - Nicely folded socks and shorts! - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Sometimes I like to have my laundry done when I don't have time and rainbow laundry does a fabulous job with my laundry. It's done in one day and it's bagged and bring it home and put it in the drawers. read more

Efficient and accommodating of rush timeframe. Convenient hours. Value given quality and convenience.

It's what I'd expect a laundromat to look like. Kinda dark, dingy and smelling like fabric softener. They have a variety of machines for double, triple, and giant loads. I can usually fit 2 large laundry baskets into the giant load washer for just $6 to wash and $3.50 to dry. What I like the most and have never experienced before is a drop off laundry service! Yup! You can drop your drawers and they'll wash, dry and fold em for you! They charge $1 and some change per pound. If you don't have a second to waste on sitting in the laundromat, drop your clothes off and pick them up the next day. The staff are very nice, friendly and talkative. There's a few TVs, some really old books, a pool table, and plenty of folding space and sitting. read more

Rainbow Laundry - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

I've used Rainbow for several months for all my laundry. They pick up and drop off my clothing, sheets, quilts, and towels. it's always beautifully done, wrinkle-free, folded and wrapped. service is friendly and every special request I've made has been followed I'm impressed! Highly recommend. read more

My husband works around 80 hours a week and barely has time to do his laundry when I'm not in town. We were in the need for a drop off service. My husband has been to many in the past, but rainbow has outshined them! We're extremely impressed with the services. Everything was folded super nice, organized and the price was great. Was actually clean from my husbands work, which is near impossible with his dirty he gets. Damien was super welcoming and professional. We will definitely be regulars. Well worth the 35 minute drive! read more

Rainbow Laundry - Organized and clean laundry! - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Special occasion to wash big bulky items and decided to come here for nostalgia reasons from when I used to visit here frequently approximately 20 years ago. This was my place. Things have changed. For the record it looks like their "wash and fold" is still doing quite well. Unfortunately I would rather pick a laundromat that 70-80% of machines are not broken with post it stickers. It was not busy so I got the only largest washer and dryer that were available and actually working. Dryer door wouldn't stay closed so I stood while drying or my items wouldn't shoot out. I miss the old vide here for washing. I did get my laundry done and the staff seemed nice. 2 pluses for that read more

Nice classy and clean place to wash your clothes. I'll be back again. Right in the middle of uptown.

We love this laundromat! The staff is always very friendly and helpful. The machines are all newer models and do a great job cleaning clothes. The dryers are super hot and you don't have to keep feeding them money to dry your clothes. The facility is very clean, and I see the staff cleaning the machines, the floors and the bathroom regularly. The only drawback I can think of is that the parking lot is pretty small, and during busy times it can be a challenge to find a space, but we just try to go early in the am to avoid that. They offer free WiFi, and have plenty of seating as well as a pool table. I really enjoy going to Rainbow Laundry and highly recommend it! FYI: The Indian restaurant next door is really good! If you're there between 11am and 3pm, they have a buffet. Great thing to do while waiting for your laundry! read more

Would have had 5 * but the said my laundry would be done at the end of the day. It wasn't. I'm easy going and had another day to wait. I'm traveling. I'd go back delays are small stuff read more

I haven't been to a laundromat in decades this was so cool it was air-conditioned the attendant was way attentive and very nice very helpful and I recommend this place highly!! And what a great location right on the best line which is exactly what I need! read more

Great wash and fold service if you are traveling. They shrink wrap and compress all of your items (socks, shirts, undergarments, shorts) which is great for packing. I would recommend! read more

I read great reviews here and was excited to try Rainbow Laundry dry cleaner. I used their dry cleaning service and paid $90 for about 14 pieces. I was very disappointed to see one of the very delicate pieces with a rhinestone belt had damage and because of the way it was handled, the belt ripped some of the fabric. Another was a white top that I got back with a slight stain on it that wasn't initially there. The pieces also didn't smell like they'd been cleaned. They did do a good job with pressing shirts. Would not recommend. read more

We had a "sitch" at home. Our dryer broke and we were waiting for service from Centerpoint for weeks ( no exaggeration) and then, the washer broke- so we thought a fun activity could be spending the day at the laundromat! after my research on laundromats, I looked no further than Rainbow Laundromat- they do it FOR YOU! What a treat- we felt like we were New Yorkers. They did a great job with our 60 lbs of laundry. All folded and clean. I felt like I was at camp again after decades. Treat yourself for no reason at all. It makes you feel like Pandemic Royalty. Thank you! read more

Yeah... I won't be back. Came to do a small load, only to find the cheapest option is a double load front-loader for $3.00... maybe (more on that later). I've never been to a laundromat that didn't have top-loaders for a lower price. If I had known this I would have brought like three times as much as I did. However, knowing this doesn't mean I'll be back with a larger bagful of laundry. Why? Warm and hot water cost extra (25 for warm, 50 for hot). What? Never seen this before either. Extra $ for heavy soil or extra rinse is fine, but come on. Other things: - As noted by another reviewer, there's one freakin' outlet way back in the corner, too far from any seating. - The employees need to use their inside voices. The person you're talking to is standing right there, dude. - Picking nits, but as long as I'm dumping on this place... they apparently aren't aware that wifi passwords are case sensitive. It's all caps on the sign, but in fact the password's all lowercase, so I wasted a few minutes figuring that out. I'm giving two stars instead of one because it is nice and clean and stuff seems to be well maintained. I gotta figure most of the rave reviews here were written by people who don't have to worry much about money. Must be nice... edit: Oh, p.s... The pool table people have mentioned is gone. They apparently decided (correctly, imo) that folding tables are more important. So they got that goin' for them. read more

I went to get my wedding dress cleaned there. They charged me $300 and it took over a month to clean. Once they finally returned it to me it was in an open plastic covering and it was dirty at the bottom. I brought it back and they said they would try and fix it but now I'm probably waiting another month to get my dress back. The man was very friendly though and it is a convenient location. read more

My partner found out about Rainbow Laundry through reviews online-and we decided to give it a try for our dry cleaning. We brought in some blazers and a silk too that had a few stains, and fortunately all of our items were cleaned well and to expectation. With a turn around of about 2 days, we were happy to have our items dry cleaned fairly quickly. If you're driving here, be aware of the small parking lot that's nearby. Rainbow Laundry also acts as a laundry mat, so you can take your laundry there if you need to. I believe there is some sort of special on Fridays-so ask about if when you arrive! read more

These guys are great ! Good price , great service ! And they will pick up and deliver. Good place if your in town for work and need your laundry done . read more

I had two dresses dry cleaned here and they did a great job. I'm used to cheap dry cleaning on the east coast so was surprised to be charged almost $40 for two dresses. If they weren't so expensive, I would be a regular customer. read more

Unfortunately, I moved out of the Twin Cities, so I can no longer utilize Rainbow Laundry's services. However, for the 5 years that I lived in Minneapolis, I LOVED Rainbow Laundry. I frequently had dresses, blouses, and suits dry cleaned there, and was always extremely satisfied. The pricing is excellent and the customer service is fantastic. I highly recommend Rainbow Laundry's services. read more

After watching my hill of clothes turn into a mountain and overtake an entire side of my room, I figured it was time to take a break from running around and actually get it under control. (The ultimate catalyst was that I ran out of workout clothes and socks :O ) I had a couple places to choose from in the uptown area, and thought I'd check yelp because the few that I had been to, I couldn't remember their hours. I also came across Rainbow, and thought it was ridiculously highly-rated for Laundromat. I had a free afternoon and 2 baskets of my most important clothes, so I decided to check it out. Short Version: This is THE BEST LAUNDRY PLACE EVER! Slightly longer version: Super friendly and informative staff and owner. Willing and able to help out, and they have whatever you might have forgotten. They offer several different services I wouldn't even think of but will definitely use going forward. (Wash and Fold can help me regain my apartment back!) There's a place to entertain yourself, either by reading, arcades, pool, tv. There's free WiFi, comfortable couches to sit and read, well ventilated, very clean, and it's open 7 days a week until 9:30. I was blown away... from a laundry place... I know, sounds ridiculous. I don't even get this kind of service when I visit my parents place anymore. Check it out, you won't be sorry. read more

I used Rainbow Laundry for years when I lived in Uptown. While I loved the old brownstone I lived in, I was so tired of carrying my laundry up and down three flights of stairs only to find all the machines were in use. Rainbow Laundry to the rescue! I just threw my clothes in a laundry bag and brought it over. They usually had it ready the next day. Always had great service and they took great care of my clothes. Highly recommend! read more

I had an absolutely wonderful experience with Rainbow Laundry's wash by the pound service. After a depressive period, issues with my apartment washing machines, and a family emergency, I had accumulated quite a bit of dirty laundry. Like, an absurd quantity. At close to 100 pounds, it was a large order. However, the employees were nothing but nice and understanding, encouraging me to just bring it all in when it was convenient for me. The cost was very reasonable (especially considering the time it would have taken me to wash everything) and it was all washed perfectly. I separated out what was hang-dry, which I would recommend to save them time. Their good humor, eagerness to help, and excellent service means I will return next time their services are needed and recommend them to all my friends! read more

Rainbow Laundry is every good word in the dictionary! I needed a huge down-filled coat and a full/queen sized down comforter dry cleaned. I chose this place because of their reputation on Yelp and you guys did NOT let me down! This place is phenomenal! Their facilities were spotless. Let's face it, public laundry places are usually sketchy at best! Rainbow Laundry is anything but! The pictures here on Yelp don't do it justice. The ladies working inside were absolutely lovely and welcoming! I immediately noticed the care they were taking of the laundry they were doing. No half-hearted, just-get-it-done attitudes at all. The price was more than fair: $50.12. I shopped around to get an idea of pricing because I haven't had anything dry cleaned in years. These guys had the best prices, although prices didn't vary by much. I dropped my items off on a Thursday around 1pm. I was told they would be done by Friday, sometime after 2pm. Great! They even offered free delivery! I'd shake a stick but there's nothing to shake it at! By the way, my items were delivered on Friday MORNING at 9:15am, only 20 hours after I dropped them off! Speaking of the delivery, it was 46°F with rain and thunderstorms when the greatest, kindest delivery driver showed up! He didn't mention the weather but only smiled, saying that he appreciated my business and hoped I'd use them again. YOU BET I WILL! FACILITIES: 5 out of 5 Stars SERVICE: 5 out of 5 Stars PEOPLE: 100 out of 5 Stars I paid for dry cleaning and got what I paid for there. Everything came back fresh and clean. But, it's the PEOPLE that are getting my repeat business and all the word-of-mouth advertising I can give. read more

Avoid this place AT ALL COSTS. I was in town with a band playing for one night and needed some same day wash and fold. I went to pick up my laundry, and the next day realized that two shirts were missing. I was already in the next city of our tour. I called the laundromat and asked that they be overnighted to my next tour stop in the next city. I emphasized the importance of getting it out the next day, because I would only be in the next town for one night and needed the shirts for the next few shows. The shirts never came. I called and called and CALLED, asking for a tracking number. I was told that the owner, Frank, would call me back, but he never did. The business stopped answering the phone all together. When I finally got thru to someone asking when my package was to arrive, Frank nonchalantly told me that he hadn't managed to get it out yet. This was 5:45 PM, and he said he probably didn't even have time to get them out in time. I told him I would call the FedEx (half a mile away from Rainbow) MYSELF to see what time their last was, and learned it was 7:30. Plenty of time for him to get over and drop off the package in time for him to overnight it to the next city. I got a call from Frank at 9:15pm later that night and said that he hadn't managed to get to FedEx, even after I had done the research for him about how he could get it to me in time for the NEXT show. He simply couldn't be bothered to correct his company's mistake. Highly unprofessional, a huge inconvenience, and extremely disappointing. This issue is still unresolved. I'm furious. Stay. Away. read more

I usually use my building's machines whenever I have a load or two to do. However, sometimes life gets real busy, and I discover five loads that magically appear out of nowhere. I visit Rainbow several times a year, and on my most recent trip, I noticed that several rows of machines have been replaced with modern ones. Thankfully, the price for a regular wash still remains the same at $2.50. ***Applause*** Washes also only last 30 minutes. The larger machines -that can clean about two and a half loads or so- are in the $3 range and take slightly longer to finish. The dryers are huge, and the amount of time it takes to dry depends on the number of quarters you put in. I think it's five or seven minutes per quarter. $1.75 should be enough for one load. I've used their dry cleaning services several times. I believe it's per pound. For a full pant and coat, it costs me somewhere between $12 to $17. Other perks include solid and free WiFi, a pool table, arcade games, couches, and two metal picnic tables to do work. *Note: the game where you go through warehouses clearing out zombies with your pistol is BAD-ASS! It's 50 cents per start. The owner is nice and usually answers any question with a smile. I'll probably find myself back in three months with five loads. read more

Did you know that a laundromat can have a 100% five star reputation on Yelp? This one does, and it's well-deserved. I'm not an expert on laundromats, but this one is good. I know this because I was just there today. It's very clean and there's free WiFi. There are couches and tables for laptopping, reading or chatting. AND I made it to Chipotle (my fast food vice), ate my food and was back in perfect time to put my clothes into the dryer. I used the triple load machines (30 minutes; $3.75) and had two loads going. The dryers took another 30 minutes. At home in my apartment basement, my mountain of laundry would've taken at least four loads and a LOT more of my time. Rainbow also offers dry cleaning services and full laundry service by the pound ($1.10/lb), which tempts me immensely. read more

This is a family run establishment. They are super awesome people who will say hi as you come in and wish you a good day as you leave. I always play Ms. Pacman or pool and eat Spree out of the 25c candy machine while I wait for my clothes to be clean and dry. :) If I'm tight on the quarters, I'll chill on one of their couches and play my DS. Sometimes, I even run to Chipotle next door and grab a burrito to pass the time. Stay away from the vending machine for food, though--on more than one occasion, I've gotten chips/candy items that are far past their expiration date. The items tend to taste funky after being on display in a glass case under fluorescent lighting for months. The beverages have always been fine. read more

I have used Rainbow's wash & fold service a few times when my son's mountain of unwashed clothes has gotten to be unmanageable. Yes, he should be doing his own, but Rainbow has provided fast, efficient, and friendly service to help us out of a bind. Highly recommend. read more

Great laundromat. Safe and clean with great inviting staff. Machines are also clean and fast. I travel for work and will be using this as my go to laundromat. read more

I needed some wash, dry & fold services and dropped off a couple of bags of clothes today at about 11:15 today. There were different directions for each bag. The lady at the counter was polite and said the normal turn around was 24-hours but that they would be able to complete my clothes after 4:00 p.m. today. They delivered on time, according to the specific instructions and the clothes look great. I'm a happy camper with lots of nice clean clothes. All for under $14. Would do that again. read more

I've been to Rainbow three times and have always had amazing service. Example: once I took a down comforter there, thinking it needed to get dry cleaned, and Frank the manager told me I could actually machine wash a down comforter. This saved me (and lost him) about $10. Another time, a woman working used a house stain removal solution on another comforter of mine, looking over the whole thing and treating each stain individually. Every time I've gone they've been able to put my things from the washer to the dryer, so I wouldn't have to come back for this step. They're also really knowledgeable about laundry. I keep thinking I would like to stay during a wash cycle of mine and pump them for laundry dos & don'ts, but never have the time. Anyway, the info in passing they've told me is still much appreciated. Also, their hours are insane -- 10 pm on Sunday for a laundromat, whaaatttt???!!! Maybe it's because I just got back from Europe, but still, it makes me happy to know I can leave things til the very last minute before the week starts. read more

TRUE LIFE. This is a 5 Star Dry Cleaning Establishment. (I can't speak for the laundry portion, but it does seem like they do laundry by the pound wash/dry/fold) * Super Quick Turn-Around on service (less than 24 hrs!!) * Super kind staff (seems like a family run place) * Nothing has been ruined! Quick tips: Parking lot is a cluster. Come driving south down Hennepin. Don't cause a scene with your illegal left turn doesn't take American Express read more

It's so clean compared to where I used to go!! The washing machines are clean too! Wash prices are very fair but I was originally annoyed with the dryers at $0.25 for 5 minutes. Realizing that some items dry quicker and some longer I can appreciate paying for 5 minutes at a time. I saved money by only pay for 20 minutes vs a full 35. Excited to see extra larger dryers for larger items! Lots of parking and a few restaurants to grab a quick bite at when doing laundry. I will be back. They also offer wash and fold! read more

This is a review for their dry cleaning. I had a two piece suit dry cleaned here and overall, I had a great experience. Pros: Quick turn around for dry cleaning (within 24 hrs depending on when you bring it in) Friendly service attendants Cons: $15 dollars for a 2 piece suit (jacket +pants) The parking lot is occasionally full. I would be back here for sure if I ever needed any dry cleaning or laundry done. read more

I came in to Rainbow Laundry to dry clean my pea coat. I came in on a Saturday and it was done Monday at 2pm. Overall it was a good experience. Pros: They did a great job on the coat! Quick turn around for dry cleaning Friendly service attendants Parking lot- Make sure you don't pass it since it come up real quick right before you hit 26th. They will deliver for free but not after 5pm. Cons: $15 dollars for a pea coat. Not bad but I listed it as a con because their max price on their site is $13.99. Should be updated. Will be back when I need dry cleaning done again. read more
