We had our knives sharpened at Kitchen Corner on the Black Rock Turnpike. http://kitchen-corner.com/

The little shop between J. Albert Johnson's and Shop Rite on Black Rock Turnpike is excellent. I even had them but a leather cover on a book. No credit cards.
Does anyone know of a pick-up laundry service in our area? I know there's drop off everywhere, but with both of us working so much, it would be amazing to have scheduled...

Hemlock Hardware on the Post Rd in Fairfield sharpens knives (does a awesome job!) Cobbler...on Black Rock Turnpike as Betty mentioned but I think there's one in the Trumbull Mall... Hakky's? Good luck!
Sue C. replied:
We use Post Dry Cleaners near Flipside we've used them for years. I don't remember if they pick up and deliver. There's also Dogwood Cleaners that's right by Midas Muffler that a friend uses and swears by.

You can get knives sharpened at the Westport Farmers Market next Thursday in Westport. Great shoe repair on Post Road in Westport across from Stop and Shop. I like Friendly Cleaners in Fairfield. They do repairs and hemming also
Iona S. replied:
I use Royal Cleaners on the Post Rd in Fairfield. There's a cobbler in Westport by Westfair Fish & Chips (post Rd) - don't know about the knives.
Lisa S. replied:
Not sure if they still sharpen knives but I used Kitchen Corner on Black Rock Tnpk in Fairfield.

I need a dry cleaner. Any suggestions on a fairly local one? Every time I find one they close down. :(

I continue to rave about Post Cleaners in Fairfield -- Post Road between Flip Side and the Shell gas station. They got a spot out of one of my favorite silk blouses which two previous cleaners were unable to do. They are also very nice.

Gail Ostrow... I can't rave enough about Post Dry Cleaners. They're on the post Road in Fairfield in the shopping center with the Shell Gas Station, Rings End and the FlipSide. I had a beloved silk blouse where two cleaners in Westport couldn't remove a spot. So I wore it under sweaters. I brought it into post cleaners for a routine cleaning and (lo and behold) the spot was absolutely gone. They continue to do a great job on everything. However, I wouldn't use them for alterations or repairs. For that you want Suzie's in Bridgeport.
Looking for a Dry Cleaner who has pick-up/drop-off service in the Bridgeport/Fairfield area.

Have been using Minute Man Cleaners in Trumbull for years. I know they offer both pu and del. I havent used it but you can always ask. They drive through Bpt to get to Westport.
