Name:
Laundry
Where:
Sheffield
What:
Bringing a bit of US style to UK shores, this super cool salon is inspired by a luxury American launderette. The theme is carried throughout, from blowdries re-branded as SPIN DRYS, while gift vouchers come in the form of washing machine tokens. Forget a northern cup of brew, here a bespoke coffee bar is at the heart of the salon along with coldpressed juices and homemade biscuits and cakes. The perfect space to chill on the diner-style seats and keep aneye on your emails.
