Fountain Square Barber Shop

Experiencia fantástica: Quick service, cool atmosphere reminiscent of an old-school barber shop, free beer while you wait, and a great haircut! A little pricey, but you do get what you pay for.

Experiencia fantástica: We got there a little late and Brandon still did an excellent job with the time given. We choose him every time. My son is the one getting the cut and he always talks to him about whatever and makes him feel comfortable. He talks to him bout what he wants done with his cut too which is great. We'll be coming back for sure.

Experiencia fantástica: Brandon did a great job

Experiencia negativa: Rude unpleasant staff with an insanely awkward vibe, and a horrific haircut to top it off. I went here as a backup since my normal stylist was out of town, and I genuinely feel like great clips would have been a better option. The old cigarette stank that hit me as I walked in the door was a nice touch

Experiencia fantástica: This was literally the best hair cut I’ve ever received. I didn’t realize barbers like this still existed. I will highly recommend to all my friends. Fast forward and I tried booking an appointment online. Website was not user friendly to me at all so I called them the dude was extremely rude about it. I just wanted to book a darn appointment man. Super disappointed.

Experiencia fantástica: I had an incredible experience at this barber shop; the Atmosphere was very welcoming also chairs are extremely comfortable. The barber Jonathon took the time to understand exactly what I wanted and delivered a flawless cut 100%will be coming back. If you're looking for a nice barber shop with good people, this is it hands down

Experiencia fantástica: Matt is a great barber, very chill and friendly. The shop location is very convenient. I'll be going back again.

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone was very friendly. Did an excellent job on my son's hair, exactly what we wanted. Definitely will be bringing my son back.

Experiencia fantástica: Long time client, love seeing how the barbershop has evolved over the years. Love the vibe and old time atmosphere. It's a neighborhood staple.

Experiencia fantástica: Great service and professional atmosphere!

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent cut, timeless of appointment was spot on, welcoming environment!

Experiencia fantástica: amazing atmosphere/vibe knowledgeable and friendly barbers and a traditional barber shop. you walk in a customer and walk out a friend they have made me a client for life

Experiencia fantástica: Got a great haircut and a beard clean-up from Mac. I had no idea what to do with the beard and came out looking like an actual human being. Great experience.

Experiencia fantástica: Been coming here for a couple years now. Always a good time. I actually look forward to coming here and getting a cut.

Experiencia fantástica: I have tried many places for a hair cut for several years and this is the best place I have been too for a very long time. You get a great haircut and get to know your stylist and feel very comfortable with your hair cut.

Experiencia fantástica: Matt R. is super nice, professional, and skilled. He does an amazing job. That's why I keep coming back!

Experiencia fantástica: Great barber shop, super reasonable prices, good services offered

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience! I dread trying out different barbers. After realizing I needed a haircut asap, I decided to give Fountain Square Barbershop a chance, and I am so happy I did. I showed Brandon a photo of a clean side part, and he did not disappoint. Brandon helped me figure out which side my hair would best be parted, and he made a few modifications to fit my face type. Brandon truly listened to what I wanted and didn't want. The blend is seamless, with clean lines. The atmosphere is retro and clean, and I am very happy with the experience. I will definitely be going back. Great vibes all around.

Experiencia fantástica: Barber shops in my city are more social club than barbershop, not that they don’t cut up a bit and have fun (they forsure do), but they never forget it’s a place of business first and some ppl got places to be. I can appreciate a fun chill place but overall I am there for my haircut and they recognized that when I came in. I do not write reviews but if I could give more stars I would. Also they also have stylist working in there and i have long hair that i get tapered on the side and barbers bo not like cutting my long hair so its convenient they also have stylists working. It’s actually not very common for a real barbershop like this.

Experiencia fantástica: Great vibe with an extremely high quality haircut. Most of the time I get fades, they are done very quickly, but my barber was meticulous and it shows. Accommodating to walk ins and new customers, and right in the center of town. I’ll definitely be going back!

Experiencia fantástica: I’m not in Indy very often but so appreciate Matt ‘Mac’ in particular. Traffic issues kept me from showing up on time but he graciously and kindly worked me in - and gave an outstanding vintage cut. Love the traditional, historic vibe, the 50s music and awesome building and storefront, but all that is hollow unless the cut is top notch… and it is. Highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic service, great stylists, awesome old school vibe, welcoming atmosphere! Great barbershop!

Experiencia negativa: Called to get in on a Sunday, asked two questions and was treated like it was a bother.... told to get on website to book appointment and couldn't book ANY BARBER. not sure why you couldn't ask as your standing with other barbers. ONLY ONE BUT YOULL NEVER GET MY MONEY! BET YOUR NOT EVEN FROM FOUNTAIN SQUARE.

Experiencia negativa: Staff is nice but 30 minutes late to start and the quality was very poor (at a high price point). Buzzed my sides and back instead of tapering and took over an inch off the top when I asked for a 1/4 inch. Genuinely one of the worst haircuts I’ve ever gotten

Experiencia fantástica: Barbers are Very polite and I got the best haircut I’ve ever gotten

Experiencia fantástica: Mathew did absolutely amazing as always. I’ve been coming here for years and have never been disappointed!

Experiencia fantástica: Was nervous about getting my beard trimmed up . I've had bad experiences in the past at other barbers. But man, they did an amazing job. This is now my committed barber. Thank you for the help!

Experiencia fantástica: Absolutely amazing. Mac took a mess and made it a masterpiece. Both hair and beard. I only come here for a cut and will continue to do so!!

Experiencia fantástica: Since going to Jacob, I have not been displeased with a single cut or his chair time. He always willing to converse and has a gentle spirit about him. Great shop.

Experiencia fantástica: Nina the barber were amazing, she was so nice and did an amazing job I definitely will be back

Experiencia fantástica: First time at fountain Square barbers and had exceptional service, the music was awesome and the place is a gentleman‘s dream for hair care.

Experiencia fantástica: Great music and great business I'll definitely be back!

Experiencia fantástica: Get online and book a spot for This is a fantastic throwback barbershop. They got a great thing going on. Mac is amazing

Experiencia fantástica: I just recently moved to Indy and it's been hard to find a good barber. I have longer hair which is tough for a male (especially when I have no clue what to ask for when I get my hair trimmed). I tried the Fountain Square Barber Shop and they nailed it on the first try. I have gone back multiple times and had multiple different barbers and still get the look I am hoping for with a cool vibe.

Experiencia negativa: Rude on the phone, rude when I arrived, and a bad haircut that was not what I asked for, but I was kept from looking at the mirror till it was done

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience! Mac was awesome, took the time to understand the look I was going for and executed. All around great shop and excellent location.

Experiencia fantástica: The absolute best barbershop in Indy! Stacy B.

Experiencia fantástica: Great atmosphere, and a great place to get a fresh cut. I have been coming to the shop for over 10 years, and won’t go anywhere else.

Experiencia fantástica: First major haircut in ten year. I really liked the outcome and appreciated the advice.

Experiencia fantástica: Jacob cut my hair. He is a complete professional while also allowing a degree of familiarity and comfort within the space provided between a barber and a client. I will be coming back as this is now my permanent barber shop. Once I find a great barber I feel loyal to that shop. Thank you all.

Experiencia fantástica: Hair cut was perfect, exactly what my son asked for. It was very easy to make an appt with multiple last minute times available, no wait time on arrival staff were friendly and professional! We will definitely be back

Experiencia fantástica: Would definitely recommend any of the barbers if you're in the fountain square area. I missed my original appointment one Friday due to a doctors visit going longer than expected, and they were still able to get me in afterwards. Great service, price, as well as atmosphere!

Experiencia fantástica: Brandon is the best! My son, Carson, loves getting his haircut by him.

Experiencia fantástica: Best barbershop experience ever... Classic old school barbershop that's incredibly well maintained and clean. Most importantly... the barbers are kind, funny, and true professionals in their craft. The owner (Matthew) runs a great establishment. I'll never cut my hair anywhere else when I'm in town.

Experiencia fantástica: Matt R always does an amazing job and is this reason I have made this place my barbershop for the past 5 years.

Experiencia fantástica: The place and staff are fantastic! I've been going here for over 3 years, and no matter who you choose, you are in great hands. The location is clutch, and the service is fantastic from start to finish.

Experiencia fantástica: A visit to the barber shop is always a positive experience and Jasmine is outstanding!

Experiencia fantástica: Love the vibe. Exactly what it should feel like in a barber shop!! In and out no appointment. Tho they say booking o line is the easiest!!

Experiencia fantástica: I recommend Fountain Square Barber Shop because it’s consistently friendly, reliable, and has a timeless atmosphere. It’s a nostalgic spot that’s been part of the community for years-always welcoming and true to its roots. The haircut I want is the haircut I get, every time-always satisfied with the service. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an authentic, old-school barbershop experience.

Experiencia fantástica: Needed a shave for my head and was treated with care. The location is perfect for Fountain Square enthusiasts and the atmosphere is iconic.

Experiencia fantástica: Great vibe. Appointment scheduling is simple to do. The barber was meticulous with his work. (JACOB G)My haircut was exactly what I wanted.

Experiencia fantástica: I came from a different city to come visit some family and was in desperate need for a haircut for me and my son, when I walked in it was nothing like I’ve seen before, very classic with a touch of modern flair it felt very welcoming. When I was done getting the haircut I felt like a new man lol but he let me go free of charge, he didn’t want to me to pay so here I am today hoping that this shop and the whole hearted workers that are working here to receive many blessings in the future.

Experiencia fantástica: I have lived a lot of places and had a lot of barbers. Brandon is one of the best I have ever had! He does a great job and never rushes the process. You can tell he loves his craft!

Experiencia fantástica: Had a big interview next day and booked last minute appointment. When my initial barber was unavailable, they were able to fit me in with a new one same day. Cut was perfect, atmosphere was exactly what a barbershop should feel like. 10/10, I’ll be back!

Experiencia fantástica: Had my semi-annual skull shave at FSBS yesterday (4/10/25). Sweetness. After a long winter of growing my fur, it felt so good to feel a straight razor on my skull! Matt's massage, fancy barber oils & tonics accompanied by a stream of Kokomo, Indy and Chicago blather. Oh yeah, the hot (and cold!) towels. Lordy! This is urban barbering at its finest. It's a tad pricey but hey, to me? Worth every red cent. Enjoy it folks, especially you lucky peeps who still have hair on yer head! *Joke* Matt wouldn't give me the Bald Guy Discount! PS Love the lingering, fragrant "barber smell" that an FSBS cut provides. Very evocative! A deep olfactory memory from my youth

Experiencia fantástica: First time customer, went in needing a change in styles, Jade did a great job. Definitely will return

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been coming here for years with consistently excellent results. Matthew has always been kind, flexible, and does an outstanding job. Would recommend FSB to anyone looking for a nice place to get your hair cut in a friendly environment.

Experiencia fantástica: Jade was amazing and really knows how to do a fade! I was even running late to my appointment (her last of the day), and she took her time to make sure I received a great haircut for my first time. Will definitely be going back!

Experiencia fantástica: This place goes above and beyond with customer service. It was my first time going to a barber like this, and I will be a return customer. Mac was amazing! I wasn’t sure what to do for my beard trim and haircut so I told him to use his expertise and surprise me. Not only did he do that, but he exceeded my expectations by far. The whole place is neat, the nostalgic atmosphere with the old school chairs, lighted poles, and music, really makes this place what it is. The customer service is something I haven’t seen in years. It almost feels like you went back in time! Thanks for everything Mac, I will be back the next time I’m in town!

Experiencia fantástica: Highly recommend this wonderful barber shop!! My husband goes here and always has a 5 star experience, so we took our son here for his first haircut and it couldn’t have gone any better! Mac made our son feel at ease and did a great job. The people are kind and the music is relaxing :)

Experiencia fantástica: I like this shop it’s my favorite. The atmosphere is always relaxing and very comfortable seating. I observed and noticed all the stylist are professionals and very patient with customers. They make you feel at home and welcomed with zero stress in this great establishment.

Experiencia fantástica: Been going to Fountain Square Barbers for about ten years; they're the best in Indianapolis in my opinion. They take a great interest in their clients, are friendly, fun and they are masters of their profession.

Experiencia fantástica: Best barbershop in Indy! Very professional, great music and atmosphere. Matt and Jazmine are both fantastic and I can’t recommend either of them enough. The online scheduling is easy and convenient and the hours are accommodating to those who work late. Go support this awesome barbershop!

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience! Jade did a great job, and my wife loves my haircut. I will be going here regularly now

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome atmosphere, Outstanding service and genuinely the best haircut experience I’ve ever had!

Experiencia fantástica: I just went for my first time this afternoon. It’s a truly professional and warm environment. I can’t say enough about the job Mac did on my hair and beard . It’s easily the best haircut/beard trim I’ve ever had. Hands down. I’ll be returning.

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent service. Excellent environment. This is a classic barber shop that pulls all the stops. Matthew takes pride in his craft. This is a clean, professional place that's classy but not stuffy.

Experiencia fantástica: I bring my two kids (3 and 5) here and they do an amazing job. It’s easy to schedule an appointment and they are patient/kind to my kids. Such an asset to the fountain square community.

Experiencia fantástica: Extremely professional, courteous, prompt, and efficient. The guys in there are incredibly skilled at their craft. I came out feeling like a new man after my time in there.

Experiencia fantástica: The service was excellent. I loved the atmosphere of the place. It was a great experience. This place has style and substance to spare. I have received numerous positive comments about my haircut. Thanks!

Experiencia fantástica: I don't remember the gentleman's name who cut my hair, but he did a great job. This was my first barber experience and I will definitely be returning. 10/10

Experiencia fantástica: Booked an appointment online, the owner and staff were professional, the vibe of the place was top notch, they provided excellent customer service and the barber who did my hair was efficient, knowledgeable, and friendly. Will return again.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been going here about 10 years now. It’s been great to see the shop expand yet the feel stay the same. Always greeted when I come in, no matter who I’m seeing. Matthew has been my guy and always get a massage, single blade, and wash as part of the service. He does a great job on lining me up and is always a great conversation. I’ve gotten my beard shaved with hot towels and felt like a king. I’ve sent family and friends and they are always well taken care of. Great job guys!

Experiencia fantástica: Great haircut and great people! Friendly and want to give you the best personalized haircut experience. Will be returning

Experiencia fantástica: I just got my hair cut here and am so happy with how it turned out. My barber took his time and made sure it was perfect. We had great conversation, too! Will ABSOLUTELY be returning and would recommend to anyone in the area.

Experiencia fantástica: Couldn't recommend this place more to anyone who needs a haircut! Extremely professional and welcoming environment! And they have treats for your doggo!

Experiencia positiva: I had scheduled an appointment at a certain time block cuz it was the only one that was available but I arrived 30 minutes early because I was already in the area. The lady Barber that I was assigned saw that I was there early and seemed kind of annoyed cuz she was on break. Luckily John was able to take me and he did an amazing job. He took his time and cut my hair exactly the way I wanted it. Will definitely request him next time.

Experiencia fantástica: it was our first time in and our barber (I did not catch her name, she has dark red hair and lots of tattoos) was super friendly and joked around with my son which made him feel comfortable, and his haircut came out great! we’ll be coming back next month for sure.

Experiencia fantástica: I love coming here. it's always clean, the old school vibes are so nice and very friendly staff. Mac always does a fantastic job! I will always recommend fountain square barber.

Experiencia fantástica: I came here after work and great people! I had some laughs. Really liked my haircut, my barber really knew what he was doing! Honestly a relaxing time! Not only that, flexible hours. Definitely recommend!

Experiencia positiva: Crowded but easy for a walk in sometimes and they honor Apple and Samsung tap pay which most local barbers don't honor. Reservations are a safer bet.

Experiencia fantástica: America does such a great job in my hair. She textured it and it felt so light and was so manageable! I will definitely be coming back soon!

Experiencia fantástica: Liz is rowdy talented! First time here. She KILLED it! Spent a lot of time fixing my...situation. Can I humble brag for a sec? I came in sloopy and left gorgeous. Fah reel dough. Thank you so much for making me feel welcome and working your magic. Ask for Liz!

Experiencia fantástica: I came here earlier this morning and got a haircut from Jacob. I’m normally very anxious about haircuts and facial trims, especially my mustache. But he delivered above and beyond. He cut my hair just as I wanted, lined me up great, and restyled my beard. I trusted him with my mustache and he did not disappoint. I would recommend booking on the website, the process is super simple and you have a chance to give any details you think are necessary (and they actually read what you put down). Hands down the best experience I’ve had in a barber shop, and will be coming here again. 10/10, would recommend to friends and family.

Experiencia fantástica: I had a scalp massage while my son got his haircut. Worked out perfectly. Scalp massage was amazing!

Experiencia fantástica: Best haircut I’ve had in years! Never been here before, wanted to try a new spot. Place was old school which is right up my alley. Sight unseen I made an appointment online with Brandon - and this guy knows how to cut hair! Told him how I wanted it done, and he delivered above and beyond. Even got a history lesson about fountain square with the cut! Will DEFINITELY be coming back.

Experiencia fantástica: Super calming relaxing atmosphere, Jazmine was super friendly and gave me the best cut I've ever had and a really nice scalp massage

Experiencia fantástica: Just felt like I was getting a proper haircut. For example I am a sports clips customer. They seem to just want to rake my head with electric clippers. A proper professional haircut in a nice location and friendly people. That's the haircut I got yesterday. Thank you.

Experiencia fantástica: It was my 1st time here, I was able to make a same day appointment. I've been looking for someone trustworthy to clean my beared up. I drove an hr just to check it out. Matt was awesome & trimmed my beard exactly how I wanted it. Will definitely be coming back to him. Highly recommended.

Experiencia fantástica: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fountain Square Barbershop is a hidden gem! The vibe and atmosphere are incredibly relaxing and nostalgic, making each visit a delightful experience. You can tell the owner truly cares about his business, creating a welcoming environment that feels like stepping back in time. Brandon gives me the best cuts every time – I won’t go anywhere else. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a top-notch barber experience!

Experiencia fantástica: Best barber experience I've ever had. Matthew was amazingly helpful with styling my hair!

Experiencia fantástica: Scheduled an appointment with Brandon. Awesome customer service. He actually talked me through booking my appointment over the phone because I couldn't figure it out for some reason. Like I said Awesome customer service and he nailed my haircut. See you in 2weeks!

Experiencia fantástica: I came in this past Saturday without an appointment to get my haircut. They were all too willing to accommodate me. This was by far the BEST experience I've ever had with getting my haircut. Matthew took care of me, and truly puts a capital P in professional. The price was good, the service was even better. I came in looking like an overgrown chia pet, and walked out clean as a whistle. My wife was very pleased with the haircut, to say the least. I've found my new home, these guys are indeed the BEST at what they do.

Experiencia fantástica: I should’ve written this review a long time ago. Matt(Mac) has been cutting my hair for years, and I never go to anyone else. He gives me a great cut, every time, and we always have a great conversation while I’m there. He always does his best to fit in walk ins, no matter what, but it’s best to just make an appointment. The atmosphere is perfectly old school barbershop, and takes me back to a simpler time.

Experiencia fantástica: Came here for the first time and had a great experience. I was greeted when I arrived which started things off on the right foot. Brandon took pride in his work and did a good job. It was nice to get my hair washed. The barber shop had an old time feel with a contemporary cut.

Experiencia fantástica: I went here for a dramatically new hair style and was pretty nervous. Didn't have a set appointment and had to wait about an hour, but it was worth it to me. I had John and he did an excellent job. I will definitely be back. Other barbers we friendly and hospitable. Price is fair for the quality of the job. Atmosphere was awesome!

Experiencia fantástica: A gem of a barber shop. Really neat old school vibes, and Matt R did a great job with my husband's cut and beard trim. Enjoyed stopping in here for a cut while we were in the area. My husband was able to book an appointment online that morning. It looked like around midday when we went, they were all booked up - a guy walked in looking for a cut but they didn't have any availability. The cut and beard trim came to about $50 - which I thought was a good price for a quality cut. Check this place out for sure - but probably a good idea to make an appt to ensure you get a time slot.

Experiencia fantástica: Great cut and vibe at a fair price! I randomly walked in here 6-7 years ago and never looked back at my previous barber in town that was not as consistent, had inconvenient parking, and didn’t have the same old school barbershop vibe I enjoy at fountain square barbershop!

Experiencia fantástica: Every so often, a place is so good that it deserves a review. This is exactly what every barbershop should be. They serve great cuts, on time, with old world charm. Would be my regular barbershop if I lived here!

Experiencia fantástica: Got a haircut yesterday, and had one of the best experiences. They treated me well, Brandon there made sure every detail was perfect, and had a good time there.
