    Old school vibe barbershop that is professional and friendly. They were able to accommodate a last-minute booking for a shave and trim. Nice espresso and cold water to top off the experience. Very fair pricing with a high emphasis on attention to detail. Advise this is a cash or check only establishment. Great hidden gem for the gents. Highly recommend.

    From the moment we walked in - the experience at The Bristle & Blade Barbieria was above and beyond. The owner could not be kinder and more accomodating! He made my son feel like he was in such good hands for his haircut - and he was! The haircut came out perfectly. It's obvious how much the staff here cares about not only how the haircut turns out, but that the entire experience is a positive one. I am so thankful we chose to go here and already can't wait for the next time.
