I visited the shop recently as it was nearby to the hostel. Honestly one of the best hair cuts I’ve had and the owner was super passionate. I actually came away with some valuable advice about how to look after my hair.
Best haircut I’ve had in years! Greatly enjoyed discussing motorcycles and cars with George as he worked 👍
No words to describe George. I've had many haircuts before but the experience, George has established at his shop is truly remarkable. Thanks George would definitely love to visit you again. - Aryan Patel
I've been fortunate enough to see George many times over the years. While I moved away quite some time ago, a booking at his barber shop forms part of my quintessential Melbourne experience whenever I return (along with a footy game and a bowl of pasta around the corner at Pellegrini's). If you're looking for a professional outfit with old world charm then look no further.
Came here at the recommendation of my roommate and do not regret it at all. The barbers here are decent blokes and the gentleman I had today gave me a mean zero fade. He was also happy to give advice on how to grow out my hair which was much appreciated Good interior vibes and aesthetic - looking forward to seeing how it grows out; will come back :)

Classic cuts, modern style, and old-world charm in the heart of Melbourne.
