I last visited 21st Car Wash & Lube on Tuesday, December 2nd, 2025. It was my third visit. On previous visits, my white Ford F-150 XLT SuperCrew needed special attention as was the case this time around. In 2024, when the truck was brand new, I asked if they could get orange paint off my vehicle. This discussion was between me and one of the supervisors prior to running the truck through the machinery. The man stepped away for a moment. He returned with a small can of magic and a rag. With one gentle wipe of that rag, the orange paint was gone! Last spring, there was an ugly mark from bird droppings on the hood. I couldn’t get it off. I drove back to 21st Car Wash. They miraculously removed the mark without harming my paint job. On December 2nd, I indicated to Roman that the p

Been going for 5 years, and could Honestly say this is the Best car wash around & I 100% Disagree with All Bad / Negative Reviews. The commute is about 30 mins from where I live. I have no problem making the trip every single time I go. Very nice, hard working people. Even the cashiers have Good attitudes. They never disappoint. Their $60 wash is the best bang for buck, They wash the outside and basically do an entire Interior Detail. From my First day going til Now, They’ve Always done an Excellent job no matter what. Go on your free time for the detailing ($60+ washes) They can take anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour on the job, depending on the line and depending on the condition of the car. They close the Detailing at 5pm, but Regular Wash is 24HRS. $15 - $20 tip every time for their

This is my first ever review of any place. I’ve cleaned the car here before and it has been fine. I went there today I requested a full service car wash which means inside and outside and they didn’t wash anything in the car. They were trying to extort money to pay more for a detail car wash which it was not what I requested. Their supervisor and cashier are very very rude. Think twice before you go here. This people know nothing from customer service and how a customer is treated.

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Turker IR · Feb 2026

The worst car wash ever in New York City. They don’t have right towel to clean the car. They’re cleaning the car with a white towel that leaves a lot of cottons in and on the car. They put the washed mats on the leather seats. Which it leaves dirt marks that is hard to get rid of it. I paid $45 for this place for car washing. Now I understand why Queensboro Car Wash has a long line for car washing, but these guys don’t at all. First and the last time to be at this place. I don’t recommend this place at all.

I recently wrote a review on a 21st St. car wash which is the sister business to 21st lube. this is a great place to get your oil changed and other minor repairs and maintenance for your vehicle and you could get it done pretty quickly as well and the prices are very reasonable. They check everything from your washer fluid to antifreeze they show you how dirty your air filter is and if you want a new one, you can purchase them there as well. They do transmission services for manual and automatic transmissions for pretty reasonable price and you can watch your vehicle on the screen above because there’s a camera every bay so you can actually watch them do to work on your vehicle as it’s getting done plus they have as well like the 21st St. car wash massage chairs if you feel like working ou
