After researching dry cleaners on CitySearch, I decided to try Abe's Cleaners. I like the fact they are a family business. I dropped off my dry cleaning and was told by the son my clothes would be ready the next day. So I went to pick up my clothes the next business day and the owner could not find a skirt or sweater. I had to describe what was missing so he could find it. This was not good as a first time customer. Then shock settled in when I was told that it is $7.50 to dry clean my slacks. I asked the owner why it was so expensive when the average in PDX is $5.50 and he explained that many men bring in their chinos and they have to launder and then dry cleaner, hence the more expensive price for all customers. I explained my pants did not need to be launder in addition to dry cleaned and the owner stated, "Then you are getting screwed on the price." I could not believe he spoke to me that way. Other high prices include $8.00 for a sweater, $16.00 for a regular suit, $7.50 for a skirt -- all over the average dry cleaning prices in Portland's best neighborhoods.
Pros: Maybe location
Cons: Overpriced, Poor Service, Terrible Customer Service, Parking
