If you're looking for a true old-school barber who knows his craft, Ed at Gulf Gate Drive Barbershop is your guy. I had been to several shops asking for a flat top, and most either said they couldn’t do it or admitted it had been a long time—but they'd "give it a try." No thanks. I want a barber, not a science experiment.
I walked into Gulf Gate and Ed didn’t hesitate for a second. No fuss, no guesswork—just a great haircut from someone who clearly knows what he’s doing. This is the kind of barbering you don’t see much anymore. Highly recommend!

Reviews
Time and care taken with haircuts. If you enjoy PGA golf this place is for you, I promise.
The owner of this place is a master barber. He also reminds me back in the day where men are treated like men
