A quintessential Chicago/barber experience. I was spending the weekend in Chicago and didn't want to look like a slob. David gave me one of the best haircuts ever. Traditional barbershop with leather recliners, Italian guys brewing espresso, and to top it all off, you get to enjoy the inside of the civic opera house.

Reviews
I’ve come here twice now, every time Sam knocks it out of the park. If you’re looking for a barbershop that offers great service at an affordable price, look no further.
Amazing place. 3 great men who care about their customers and also received the most quality haircut I have ever had. Cannot stress how much credit these men deserve. Great barbers and great men that deserve as much business possible.
