Fantastic experience: Absolutely wonderful experience at this barber. Initially told that nothing was avaliable, I was pleased to be offered an appointment around an hour later, and I am happy I accepted. When I arrived for the appointment I was introduced to my barber and spent a very happy 30 minutes chatting about travel. ♥️ I was given an excellent cut, and departed a happy man. Thanks to everyone who helped make my experience such a positive one.

Negative experience: If you want to be spoken to as if you are a damn nuisance for walking in without an appointment, this is the place for you.

Alley Barbers

I would like to say it was nice to meet you but sadly it wasn’t and you certainly weren’t a nuisance you were just rude!
When I greeted you with “hello” you ignored me and just marched straight past!
When I asked NICELY if you had an appointment this seemed to instantly irritate you leading to a lot of muttering!
Interestingly our other customers at the time were walk-ins and like myself they also thought you were rude!
