Reviews of Underground Barber Shop (Barber Shop)

It's a solid barber shop in an area teeming with salons. $20 for a haircut. You can't really go wrong.

Mike Dodgson

Very good barbers.

Jeffrey Smith

For the past year I've been going to Underground Barber Shop for all of my haircuts. I've never been overly fond of haircuts in the past, but here, I'm never really worried. I'll always leave with a good to great haircut. Cuts are only $19 ($18 for seniors) and they definitely know their trade and take their time. They even pull out a straight razor to touch up your neckline and behind your ears. Only reason I'm giving them 4 stars instead of 5 is that the place could use a bit of a refresh inside. Not totally required for a haircut, but if I'm going to style my hair (like us young kids do), I'd prefer to use quality gel, rather than Dippity Do. But again, this doesn't effect the actual haircut.

This award winning condominium has an of the best condo management teams in the world. Sure there are challenges when hundreds of tenants share the same infrastructure and amenities. Nevertheless, the highly trained professionals managing this building deliver a consistent experience that lives up to the hype even in the most difficult situations. The weather in Canada can be tough, especially the winter but also the transition to the summer when the outdoor plants have to be managed properly and protected from pets and other hazards. The management team communicates effectively and in a timely manner to inform about any upcoming events, maintenance or raising issues. They also know how to have fun and organize many activities suitable for families and people from all ages.

I would like to call it a vintage shop started by immigrant working in their own style. Service is good with very reasonable price for haircut I am in love with this men’s barber shop. It’s next to North York MEC generally not visible as it’s underground shop. After pandemic someone took over the business from the old artists.

Jeff Hui

Honest barber shop for classic cuts. In and out within 30 minutes, thanks again!

Bill Fahey

I always have good experience. Get in - get the haircut - get out. no fuss.

Ehsan Zaree

I had my hair cut here just today. Tnx Sherco for his hospitality & great service. He knows what to do exactly to make you look great...

Andrew Szczepanski

My goto. Great cuts everytime. Cut is $19 with tax -- way cheaper than some upscale downtown barbers but with the same quality, in my opinion.

Christian Sands

Good price for a good haircut! Can’t ask for much more. Will be back again in a few months!

Michael Gisser

Excellent price and excellent service

dan mergener

I am very picky as to who cuts my hair. All the barbers here are true professionals and masters at their craft. They listen to what you want and deliver exceptional service.

Ehren Cheung

I've been coming to this barbershop for over a decade and it just wouldn't be the same area without these guys. I may not understand Italian which is frequently spoken between the barbers but there is something about walking into this place and taking in the atmosphere. The three or four guys as well as a woman often serve up great haircuts while debating about topics that come up on the radio or television news channels. Very down to the earth people.

Peter Szmrecsanyi

Nice people

E Hajian

I have been going to this barber shop for the last 4-5 years. The quality of their service is very good and and price is reasonable.

Saeid Mohsen

No frills, but you can expect a vintage quality of work from experienced Italian barbers

Bryan

They're precious and meticulous with your hair. This can be a bad thing for those who are in a crazy amount of rush or otherwise are unable to plan their day properly. Otherwise, it's akin to sculptors chipping away at marble bit by bit to reveal something amazing. Easily one of the best places to get a haircut in a 5km radius. The only real complaint I have is that their website can use a lot of work and is somewhat buggy. Also note that it's CASH ONLY.

I had a trim and shave from a delightful man named Luigi here. Polite and professional, the conversations flowed freely between both barbers and patrons, with nary as much as a misplaced nick of the razor. Accessibility via the stiars might limit some patrons, and the forty dollar price tag for shave and a haircut might put this place out folks price range. However, for a special occasion, the Underground Barbershop is a wonderful experience

Aran Sedi

Only place I will go for haircuts now. Both Sherko and Luigi do an amazing job cutting hair. Salon seems pretty old school but experience is more than 5 stars!

Sonny Mai

Nice little barber ship with skilled barbers, very oldschool style with reasonable pricing. Remember that its Cash Only

Dave Higgins

Friendly with attention to detail, authentic barbers, the real thing!

Michael Woo

This Barber shop has been in the same location for past 30 years+. No frills, organic service, you need to factor time to wait for your turn. They provide the best service in their own rite. I appreciate

Sunley Philip

Good place for hair cut and beard trim / shape.. I used to go to faiview mall and pay lot more for the same service. Ask for the younger gentleman if you want trendy haircuts.. he stand close to the door.. don't remember his name

Christoph Ng

Easily the worst haircut I've ever received. Barber ignored the fact that my hair was an outgrown undercut (hair gets combed over on one direction), so I ended up with a short (not comb-over-able) and extremely asymmetrical and uneven haircut, where the clippers section ended very noticeably higher on the side with the old undercut than the other side. Had to go somewhere else the next day to start over with a much shorter cut - so much for keeping some length.

Javier Pacheco

Good haircut, even better price. Nothing fancy but clean.

Unfixed Gears

Great barbers, not like hairdressers.. hard to find an actual barber in this city. Happy I found this place.

chriko rogerstan

Always get my hair cut here. Truly a gem of a place. Plus you can't go wrong for the price. They only accept cash. The place seems to be busy everytime I go. I'm very happy with all the hair cuts from here. I have recommended this place to many friends and will continue to do so. Thanks again.

Brad Fonseca

Awesome old school haircut by a real barber. Witty conversation is included. ????

Prabhat Mani

Friendly, Classic and stylish all at same time. No reservations needed, only walk-in. I arrived late (just before 5:45pm) , but they let me in. It was already late, as there were other folks already getting their haircut done. So, by the time my turn would come, it will be past 6pm (their closing time). Still they patiently agreed for my hair cut. I wasn't sure about the amount they charge - had only 18$ cash in hand, and few coins back in car. The total charge was $19, and so I was short of a buck. He was OK with $18 only, but then I insisted to wait for min. I ran back to my car, grabbed few more coins (probably it was $2 more), and gave it to him. I will surely opt for this place whenever I am in locality and need a haircut.

Saif Hossain

Guys are great and this place is old school.

Jeyan Murugan

Best bang-for-the-buck haircuts in North York!

Roark Andrade

Quick clean cut. And the decent gentleman actually fulfilled my simple requests.

rodney strongin

this barbershop is the best barbershop in toronto ,excelent haircut and great barbers .

Ron Patterson

This was once one of the best barber Shops in Toronto but since it’s been sold the new owners have no experience. They have raised the rates considerably And offer a much lower level of service that the previous owners offered.

dan hodgson

Great cut. Great service.

Jon Otto

Great barbershop. The barbers are mostly older Italian gentlemen. Often very busy. Wait times often range in at an hour during high traffic hours.

mike X change

The best Underground Barber Shop in Toronto! I've been going to this Barber Shop for 20 years! I've moved now to Aurora but this Barber Shop is worth the 30 minute drive down! If you go, ask for Luigi, the big Italian football fan! If you ever want the best shave in Toronto, this is the place I recommend! Nobody knows how to do the shave like the old school Barbers!

Fahrettin POLAT

Be careful of persian guy, whose trying to learn hair cutting on you. Also prices are expensive than market prices, and poor service.

Kamal Dhindsa

Cash only.

David Lemieux

I've been going to this barber shop for over 30 years now (since I was a toddler). Great guys who give great haircuts! A truly authentic experience. Gabe, Luigi and the rest of their team are the best!

Jonathan Berg

Excellent barbers

petra peter

Probably the best haircut you can get in the world! He is doing a very very good job for good prices

Mike Elton

Been there 20 yrs best place

Sam Note

Over priced, average cuts and you'll be sitting around for a long time while they chit chat and take their sweet time cutting the person before you.

Pars Can

Consistent!

D Amos

Good shop. Longest I've waited on a weekday is 20 minutes on a busy day but probably busier on weekends. Cash only so hit a bank machine first.

arman mozafar

best barbershop with best barbers and amazing cuts , very friendly crew . also they know what they doing

David Johnston

Excellent and responsive barbers - long standing over many decade

F Z

went here for the first time and loved it. Very professional cuts and a true barber shop vibe.

Marco D

This is a small old school barbershop that is CASH ONLY! I had to get a quick cut and the barber (I believe his name was Rino) did a great job. I was in and out in under 30 minutes. It also passed the wife's approval! The place isnt fancy and it isn't accessible as its in the basement of a plaza (stairs) but it provides a great haircut. They even pull out a straight blade to do the neck line and behind the ears. All for $19. CASH ONLY!

Delano Amiel

The service is good once you get to it. There are only three barbers so the line can get quite long.

Devon Savarimuthu

The first time I went here (in August) I had a pretty good experience with one of the barbers. My only complaint I had once I got home was that my line up wasn't symmetrical, but I take responsibility for not noticing that in the shop. However, my experience this past weekend was the total opposite. I had a different barber this time and I was treated with total disrespect. Prior to my cut, the barber who cut my hair had been cutting an older gentleman's hair. He seemed extremely polite to him and they seemed to engage in an enjoyable conversation. The instant I was asked to come up to get a cut, the barber had a look of dismay. He asked what I wanted and I stated that I wanted a taper starting from a 1 on the sides and the back. He said that he didn't know what that was and asked if I wanted it short on the back, to which I agreed, but once again asked if he could taper it (I tried to explain to him what that was). He began cutting my hair and I told the barber that what he was doing wasn't precisely what I wanted. He then aggressively responded telling me to make up my mind. So I went along with the cut he gave me. As the haircut was finishing I asked if he could just clean up the outline of my beard (not knowing there was a fee associated with it). Instead of telling me that there was a fee associated with the outline, he once again aggressively told me that if I come in for a cut, I should come in just for one thing. I felt absolutely embarrassed as there were other customers waiting as well. Another barber then stepped and politely told me that it would be a $10 charge, which normally would not be a problem. Overall, I ended up with a haircut that I didn't specifically ask for. I personally do not plan on coming back here again and would not recommend it to anyone looking for friendly service.

Alexander Plouffe

What can I say.. Here is a place that takes care of their customers... Great ppl and great haircuts and a vibe that you can't get at other places... 10/10 recommend this place

Adeel Syed

I have been going to the place for 2 years ever since I moved into the area. Never had any complains, they always do a good job. However, the last time I went there some young guy cut my hair and he absolutely messed it. Worst haircut I've ever had. Turns out this guy is the new owner of the place. Whatever you do avoid him at all costs, ask for Luigi, Ernesto or Gabriel.

Kevin Marlow

Excellent hair cut. Fair price.

Rustam Samadi

Really rude and unprofessional the guy he didn’t know what he was doing so I told him I will wait for the next person he got mad.

Karim As

Old school barbershop but very clean.All the barbers here are true professionals and masters at their craft. They listen to what you want and deliver exceptional service.

Tom Smith

Small old school barber shop. Good service, and good price. It's not accessible due to stairs to the basement location.

CBwardog

Bad haircut, the guy literally went and took a poop midway through my haircut. Left me with a bowl cut same length everywhere no tapering horrible lines

Soroosh Toronto

The worst barber shop I've ever gone in my life! There was an old guy trying to do haircut but he could hardly understand what I am telling him. He dropped his comb on the floor and again reused it again without washing or cleaning it properly! Overall, very poor quality of service

John Eric Carreon

Just got a haircut from Underground Barbershop and it's awesome! Classic haircut for a very reasonable price. When you combine a very good price with a very good skills its hard not to come back. You got a new regular customer here! Thanks Underground Barbershop!

Majd Maary

Hygiene is 0/10

Fady Ekladious

Great hair cuts that I can't find easily anywhere else in Toronto... Professional staff... It's a real barber shop where they take effort and time to do a good job

Ken Wan

Old timey feel, has a good atmosphere. Had an elderly gentleman barber, very nice guy. Seemed understaffed as he was the only one there to answer phones and get the next guest. Haircut itself was fairly average, neither particularly good nor bad.

elias sidiropoulos

Its all about the experience, top notch, great guys, 5* all around.

Ajinkya Deshmukh

My go-to place for haircut!

Blanco NYC

If you are looking for an authentic experience go check out Luigi at Underground Barber Shop. Prefect fade and oldschool shave of the neckline is the best in town....Wish I found them 5 yrs ago when I first moved to North York.

Kevin Honsberger

All their barbers are top notch

EYW

Reasonable price with good quality

Ratimid Volokin

No complaints about the old guys. However, my son had his haircut done by the youngest guy and it is so uneven that his friends asked him if his father did the haircut to punish him. Horrible !!!

Said Abu-Falafel

Prof Barbers and good peaple
