Haarlemse Barbier

The best barber shop in greater harlem. It breathes rock n roll, whiskey and all things tough (in a sopisticated manner ofcourse, beards gotta be in shape).
Overall: value for money and all you’d expect of dudes trimming beards.

What a cool barber shop came to our small shopping street in the hood. Not that I would ever be in need of the barber. LOL:)
We were just walking past it and wanted to take some pictures. The owner invited us inside and started passionately tell us the story of the idea and the interior. I really liked his passion for our small shopping street and for this new business. He sourced different elements from different places to create an idea of an old, man cave. where women are also welcome:-)
I really liked talking to him and the staff and exploring the new place. It looks great. I cannot say much about shave or cut quality, but I am sure that my hubby will enlighten me in the near future:) As for the service, the guys are really friendly!

Let me begin with the fact that this is not a review of their full service (yet) :) I only was in this store for getting some shaving soap and have not yet gotten the cut-​throat shave yet. However, at the time of writing this is still on my todo-​list :)
This store has been opened very recently in the Cronje shopping street and after passing two days ago, by I decided to go inside to check if they would have some shaving soaps that I could add to my ever growing collection of shaving soaps. The guys were really helpful and I walked out of the store with a new soap to add to my collection :)
Today I passed the store together with my wife and decided to take some pictures for Unilocal and while taking the pictures, was invited to come inside for a cup of coffee. They told me that if I took the effort to make some nice pictures of the place, the least they could do is offer me a cup of coffee for it :) Had a very nice talk with the owner and he explained the concept of the place: just a place where a guy can relax for some time and have a open-​knife shave or haircut.
The atmosphere of the place is really nice and the staff is super friendly! They have a fridge with cold beer. He told us that they have a jar where in which you just put one euro and you can get a beer. Alternatively, you can also get a glass of whiskey :)
I haven’t even tried the shave here yet, but so far I just love this place already :)
