Good People, Great Place. These guys do it right. The place is set up with a lot of old school memorabilia and a nod to barbershops back in the day. I have been going here since they opened and would say that the staff and owner are skillful, quick, pleasant very accommodating and laid back. There is a nice waiting area to read a magazine, play pool, or even have a PBR (complimentary - in the fridge). Obviously if you make an appointment (one of the few spots that does accept them), don't be late. There is no drama, so check it out.

Avoid this place. I had a horrible experience at Belmont Barbershop. I have been a customer there for over one year, coming regularly with my son. We both had an appointment on a Saturday. I arrived at the shop 15 minute late(I called ahead to say I was going to be late). Josh Cooley, the owner, was extremely rude to me on the phone. When I arrived, he refused to cut my hair and my six year old son's hair.

I have been there many times with an appointment where they were running 15-30 minutes behind schedule. It has never been a big deal to wait, as the place has a relaxing atmosphere.

Mr. Cooley, the owner, in my opinion, does not understand the first thing about good customer service. Being rude and inflexible is no way to treat your loyal customers.

Needless to say, we will NOT be returning to this place again. The last thing I need is to be treated poorly by my barber. Keep it up Josh, and before your know it, you won't have any customers left.

What's Not To Like?. The staff are friendly, they accept walk-ins (but I think you can call ahead too), the space is very comfortable and has a great old-school decor, it is inexpensive, and the best is you can shoot some pool and grab a PBR while you wait. I like the haircut and the straight razor neck shave. More importantly, my girl likes the way I look too.

You don't need anything fancy. Just a simple barber shop with great barbers. Quick but thorough, great ambiance without being pretentious.

GREAT haircuts. I've worked at a number of salons and even barbershops, and of all of these places Josh and Billy give the best men's haircuts... I send my fiance' there instead of cutting his hair myself! Try them out, and a round of pool while you're at it!!
