Fantastic experience: Booked a restyle for long hair with Lincoln after not being to a barber in some time. I only had a rough idea of what I was after and he provided some great suggestions for what would work with my hair. He also recommended some products and methods that would keep it healthy in the future. Will definitely be coming back

Jack Martin Published on Google 6 months ago

Fantastic experience: Lovely bright, warm and welcoming Barbers. Great hospitality and great cut.

Gary Edwards Published on Google 6 months ago

Fantastic experience: I've been going to North for years and it's always a great experience. My sons and I mostly have the same barber (George) but occasionally have to cancel and need to have someone else due to availability but i'm never disappointed. Whoever cuts your hair you'll get a top drawer trim and a friendly welcome from Steve and the team.

Henry Perry Published on Google 7 months ago

Fantastic experience: After visiting many barbers in Exeter and not being satisfied, my first experience at this place was perfect. Very welcoming and knew exactly how to achieve what i wanted and used proper techniques rather than taking shortcuts as most do these days. Highly recommended and will definitely be back

Fantastic experience: Been going for about 2 years and can honestly say I’ve never had anything close to a bad trim. George takes amazing care and is one of the soundest blokes you’ll meet. Plus they’ve got free cider and beer on tap - although they could do with a slushy maker.

Fantastic experience: Had a cut with Luca today and couldn’t be happier. From the moment I walked in, the vibe was welcoming and relaxed. These guys clearly know what they’re doing—super professional but chilled out at the same time. Was even offered a drink, anything from coffee to beer or cider, which just added to the experience. If you’re after a quality cut in a great location, this is definitely the spot. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: North barbers was fantastic!! Excellent customer service throughout, was greeted and offered a seat and a drink and then swiftly In the chair with my cut from Sam. Sam was fantastic, he gave me my best haircut yet and I will continue to come back to see Sam for the foreseeable and I recommend that others do the same - either to see Sam or just choose north barbers as their choice of hair cut. Absolutely brilliant and really happy with the result. Fantastic!!!

James Baker Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: When Steve opened NB in 2017, the entire quay area had been in desperate need of a quality barber for years. Working just around the corner, I was likely one of his first customers, and I’ve been returning like clockwork ever since. Steve and his team consistently deliver top-notch service, combining exceptional skill, energy, and innovation with an all-around positive atmosphere that makes every visit enjoyable. The haircuts are not only expertly done but also reasonably priced, and the complimentary beer adds a great touch to the experience. Beyond that, NB offers much more than just haircuts—the out-of-hours events, like the comedy nights, are fantastic. NB is more than just a barber shop; it’s a community hub. I can’t recommend it highly enough.
