Paul Ashby Published on Google 3 months ago

Fantastic experience: On a recent visit to see family in Bristol I needed a haircut. After a quick search I discovered this place. Firstly it was immaculately presented . Secondly I got a warm welcome and finally I got a good haircut. The young barber was pleasant with a great sense of humour and clearly knew how to use his scissors and clippers. I enjoyed my visit and left with a smart new look. Thanks to my barber and his colleague. I should have asked their names. I will next time. I would suggest offering pensioners and senior citizens a reduced rate . It might encourage people of my age into the shop and make new customers. Thanks again.

Nattapong Nokkeaw Published on Google 3 months ago

Fantastic experience: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Hands down one of the best barber shops around. The vibe is welcoming, the shop is always clean, and the attention to detail is on point. Huge shoutout to AJ—the man is a wizard with the clippers. He actually listens to what you want, takes his time, and makes sure you leave looking sharp every single time. Consistent, professional, and great energy all around. If you’re looking for a fresh cut and a barber you can trust, ask for AJ—you won’t be disappointed.

James Fisher Published on Google 5 months ago

Fantastic experience: Popped in here after a nearby chiropractor appointment and so glad I did! I first tried another barber a few doors down, popping my head in to see if they done walk-ins. One of the staff looked at me like I was speaking a different language and was met with silence! So I carried on and went to Old Market Barber instead - and very glad I did. I had my hair cut by a young guy from Kurdistan (sorry I didn’t get his name!) and we had a nice chat about different countries and life in general. Hair cut was perfect and the whole place was very clean and welcoming. I even got a small pre-packed christmas gift bag which was a great touch! Thanks again.

Matt Knight Published on Google 5 months ago

Fantastic experience: Service with a smile, even while waiting you feel thought about, out comes the mango ice-pop, perfect for a hot day. Just had a haircut, beard trim and neck shave came out feeling fresh as a daisy. Felt more like i came out of a spar after the mini massage I received. 100% going back and probably before I actually need to next time.

Fantastic experience: Great service, good price and friendly barber!

Sandy Copeman Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Alex the owner is a true maestro of the barbering arts, and has brought together a really superb team around him. His work is properly creative and he has full command of the special skills associated with Middle Eastern barbering: traditional razor and flame techniques. If you are an old white geezer like me he’ll give you a very economical and traditional cut, but will take it to another level with the details. It’s a great experience. I loved it, am fully hooked, and will never be going anywhere else! Very recommended!

Bailey Smith Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Great place with talented barbers at a reasonable price, I will definitely be coming here from now on.

Giles Lorimer Turner Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Best haircut and beard trim I’ve had for a very very long time. I didn’t get his name, but the guy who cut my hair and beard seemed to do it with ease. Clearly knew what he was doing! Unfortunately I’m only visiting Bristol - but if I lived here, it would be my regular place hands down. Don’t look anywhere else for a hair cut! This place is the real deal. Thanks again guys.

Ricardo Hernandez-Morgan Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Probably the best haircut I’ve ever had. From the moment I walked in, Aleks (apologies if misspelled) was absolutely lovely and courteous, incredible customer service. The haircut was so smooth and went by very quickly , and he finished off with an amazing flame technique to burn off hairs on the ears. All around it felt very luxury! I will now be a regular customer. Highly recommend!!

Cameron Smith Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Got my haircut here for the first time. In all my 22 years of getting my haircut this year as the best one by far. My hair is quite difficult and annoying to cut but my barber AJ did an amazing job it was premium service. He exceeded my expectations with the work and care he put in and the value for money is incredible. I highly recommend and I have definitely found my new barber!

gary brimson Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Have been regularly for 2 years now so they must be doing something right for me. Last time Nasir did the work, Milad on the sidelines. Always great work and friendly chat. Superb. On the train down to Bristol I searched for a barber local to where I was staying and found the reviews for this one very encouraging, so booked. I was not disappointed I must say, best hair and beard trim I've had for years. Alex, very professional, making sure exactly what I'd like before carrying out the cuts. Will definitely return when I'm on Bristol. Don't let the pictures put you off, the before pics look slightly like a covid recluse. 5 .

Salman Faris Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Always excellent service, I've been here many times. I've gotten my haircuts mainly from AJ and Nasir and am always happy with the result. I've just relocated somewhere further from the shop, but I still cycle 20 minutes just to get my hair cut here. That's how good the place is.

Jamie Korolewicz Published on Google 1 year ago
