If you’re on a work trip and need a reliable cut, look no further. I found this no-frills, old-school gem nearby and Roberto managed to squeeze me in on a Saturday.

I was visiting the city and found Roberto and his shop. He is a gentleman and a genuine, professional, old school barber. I felt right at home. Great haircut and reasonable price.

If I ever need a haircut again in Providence - I'm coming straight here.
