Butch’s Lube N’ Wash

So it’s Friday at 2 — you pull in & you are stuck — I had to wait In a line that I can not get out of for 30 minutes. I mean I’m completely stuck /​no way out. My car is dirty so I go for the top o’ line wash– 38 bucks! The only good thing was my tires were shiny & the inside was vacuumed but that was it! Nothing was wiped down, back window not cleaned, windshield barely. They left towels in my car. The guy that «worked» on my car took his tip & ran, nowhere to be found. I asked for something to clean the inside as it was not done, another kid handed me a towel. I had already been there an hour so I had to go. Very disappointed not going back!

I’m so disappointed.
I never go here. I much prefer Conte’s.
Now I know why.
They didn’t even bother to vacuum.
I have a company car and not real fussy, but knew I would have a carload of kids.
What a disaster it was going here.

Whenever I’m in the area I always try to get oil change here. With an oil change you get a free basic car wash and can add on a few bells and whistles if you want.
One time I had asked for a tire rotation and they let me know my tires were fine — instead of taking my money and doing it anyway. Really appreciated that.
Quick, friendly and reliable — a one stop shop for you car for sure.

Anytime I’m in the area I stop here to get my car washed because they do such a great job. I always felt they were a little better than other car washes, but recently the finishers at the end haven’t been as good. Don’t get me wrong it is still a great car wash, just feel it has slipped from superior to the same as other car washes around. I’ll still go back.

I’ve been coming here for many years. The car wash is not as thorough as it used to be – interior Windows or dashboard may not be cleaned.
The oil change and vehicle service has dropped off a lot. The workers seem very uninterested. Requests for services like changing light bulbs or checking fluid level in the differential are met with «we can’t do that» (although the services were performed here previously).
I don’t know if anyone is actually managing Butch’s anymore – seems like the employees do what they please.
It’s a shame. It was a really good place.

Me and my family have been going here for years since we live in the lincroft area. They are usually very good and hire a lot of young kids from the area which is always good. I got my car cleaned thebecause I parked under a tree and a few million birds decided to relieve themselves on my altima, however when I got home I noticed they didn’t get all the bird droppings off the roof of my car. I was a little disappointed by this but usually they are awesome! So I’d give it a try but check your car before leaving!

Used to be my go-​to car wash/​oil change place. I’ll never go back.
Brought my car in for an oil change. It was running just fine. When I left, it began overheating within ten minutes. The thermostat housing was cracked open and coolant was spilling out. They were the only ones working under the hood in months. They denied all responsibility.
They advertise tire rotation but if it’s cloudy, forget it. The girl behind the counter will tell you they don’t rotate tires in the rain.
The only positive are the kids they hire to buff out the cars. They normally do an outstanding job. Usually college age kids who work for individual tips and are therefore motivated, unlike career car shine people who are sluggish and resentful.

They so great work, but don’t abide by their published business hours, so don’t expect them to be open.

Waited over 5 min for someone to come to the desk. There was a man in line ahead of me, and the clerk was condescending to him so I left.

Butch’s is an excellent automatic car wash,
The best part, by far, is the crew of hardworking young adults they have who dry the car and do the finishing touches after the car comes off the mechanical belt.
I’ve watched as they meticulously dry and inspect my ’95 Mercedes in freezing winter temps. Couldn’t ask for more.
Well you could ask for more by going to a car detailer, but expect to pay 10 times more.

They are the best car wash around! Fast and they do the best job for the price! Getting your car washed and oil changed at once is a great option! They get the job done right the first time!

I love these guys! It is a family owned business with a long time great reputation. My company Red Bank Limo, has been using Butch’s for years to keep our cars sparkling clean with Both Car washes and detailing.
I recommend Butch’s often to my friends and customers. Way better then the competition.

There is no reason why i should feel like I have to re wash/​vaccum my car again when i leave a car wash. Seriously guys– the only reason i gave two stars was for customer service. I really have to go home amd clean my car again… Smh.

For the few years that i have been able to drive i have always brought my cars to Butch’s. I can say I drive away with pride as my car looks immaculate. If anyone was ever to ask where to get a car wash i would point them to Butch’s any day. I have gotten many compliments on how clean my car looks from friends and strangers, and they are surprised when i tell them I brought it to a car wash and i didn’t do it by hand. If you want your car to look as though you just drove it off the dealer lot bring your car here!

I live in town and gone here for years and the last several times the experience has gotten worse and worse. Not the actual wash, the kids that finish off your car. They are generally hard working kids busting their humps but my last experience was having some skinny punk with neon sunglasses respond back to me with sarcasm after I asked him to actually clean my middle console. The rest of the car was clean and I thought its pretty self explanatory to clean the most central part of the interior and after he cleaned it, said «do you still need me to clean it»? I looked at him and grabbed the rag and did it myself. I understand the millennials generally don’t like to work hard and maybe he was a wannabe skater punk trying to be tough since he is from Rumson but his $ 10 tip (it was during a 40 degree after snow day and I worked outside with my hands for two years) turned to $ 3. I would rather go to the Shrewsbury Carwash and tip people that work hard and are happy for the cash.

Since I’m new in town, I had the regular worries of «Where am I going to get an oil change?!» Also, being from Detroit, I’m accustomed to the $ 3.50 car washes on every block. This place is far and above the best car wash I’ve ever received at a very reasonable price. After it goes through the drive through wash, an attendant climbs inside and cleans EVERY surface. My car looked like new.
So when it was time for an oil change, I knew exactly where I was headed. I drove in an out in less than 30 minutes with a receipt for a free car wash in the future. They didn’t charge me any crazy prices or try to upsell me on stuff I don’t need. These guy are great. I’m definitely going to be a repeat customer!

For a drive thru car wash, definitely one of the better ones and full service price is good. Great interior work and post-​wash drying and mini-​detail. Never any pressure for «upgrading» services.

Yo, they do a cheap ass oil change and shit.
Five starzzzzz

I have been there 3 times in the past 3 months and somehow they cannot figure out how to vacuum a car. Rather than spending $ 20 with the tip, I’d rather spend $ 3 on a wash and vacuum the car myself.

As far as I’m concerned this is the only place to get your car washed. I don’t agree with the previous comment that you will feel out of place unless you drive a luxury car. Butch’s treats everyone exactly the same and I assure you that I brought non-​luxury cars here.
As a little kid I remember being excited to go with my parents to Butch’s to have their cars cleaned. It was always exciting to run inside and watch through the little windows as our car passed through each phase of the wash. To this day, when I go to Butch’s, I can’t help but smile when I see young kids doing the same thing.
Once the car has passes through the automatic phase of the wash, it is taken by one of the workers for the personal service phase. They will clean the inside and polish the outside making sure there are no streaks. If you ask for special attention to be paid to a specific area of the car, they will do so. The workers are looking for tips after all, so they will usually do everything you ask and more.
I’ve never left Butch’s unhappy with how my car looks and I really wouldn’t dream of going anywhere else.
Butch’s is a local institution and I hope it continues to thrives for year’s to come.
