If you don't bring change for the washers and dryers, just knock on the door inside the laundromat and to the left of the entry.

The Queen West strip is the best to shop along for clothing, shoes, etc. Very popular over the weekend. Either walk straight down Manning, or for the scenic route, through Trinity Bellwoods Park.
