Just moved to Venice and was looking for a new barber. I brought my wife to have her nails done next door and the Venice Barber Shop looked like it might be a good place for me going forward. Then I read their policy and procedures...Cash only and no appointments. That's just a bit too inconvenient for me. They say they have an ATM inside but paying the ATM transaction fee, so the barber doesn't have to pay a credit card transaction fee is not exactly a customer focused approach. I guess Im still looking for my new barber shop.Too bad.. read more

First time there had a great experience everything went well real nice place to go will be back

He Botched my hair cut today-we were both talking too much with the other barber and he obviously wasn't paying attention -the first time time he did a good job-I'm going to have to go back Overcharged read more

( cross post3d on Google) I think I found my new local barber for my move to Venice. Nice guys, great conversation, relaxing atmosphere. Great no muss or fuss haircut (I call it a sports cut for low maint after swimming, cycling, golf and low hat hair effect - short) Great to meet you, I'll be back!! read more

Excellent haircut! Thank you Jim! Barbershops are the way to go for a men's cut and shave. I'll be back for sure.

Great place! The barbershop are great with kids & give awesome advice on their styling needs. Also, usually little/no waiting!

First time visitor. The wait was longer than expected but the owner was very upfront when I called and let me know. It was worth the wait. I explained the type of cut I was used to getting, and John, the owner, masterfully gave me that cut - but even better. I will return and have likely found my new barber shop in SW Florida! read more

I've been to the Venice Barber shop now multiple times. Different barbers each time and all of them were great. Plus they have plenty of chairs and I did not have to wait more than a few minutes! read more

Great haircuts in a old school atmosphere; barbershop talk every time I've visited. Plenty of parking, easy in and out. Tip these guys we'll, not many shops like this are found anymore. read more

Arrived on Saturday am 845 5 people sat for 1/2 hr still on 1 guy nobody else cutting!! $26 cash only ?? read more

Guy that cut my hair probably has never picked up a pair of scissors in his life. Fade was uneven and cut it way too short. Didn't listen to anything I told him. Buzzed a big spot in the middle of my head. read more

Very friendly clean and comfy. Good conversation with workers and good job with their cuts. Covid hurt them pretty good but they bounced back. Prices went up but it should've been expected. read more

Great man's barbershop. Pole and everything. No appointments, which was great. Love this place and Jeff was great! read more

First haircut in Florida since relocating. I'm balding so the hair gets unruly looking when its not short. The barber used a buzzer/clipper which I'm not used to. My prior barber always used scissors and for balding guys with short hair who aren't getting fades etc, a scissor gives a cleaner cut in my opinion. Still, the haircut was ok. I thought it was kind of weird that they have the customers turned around facing a wall without a mirror so you can't see what the barber is doing, and they don't turn you around when they're done. You have to look at it yourself, while the barber is waiting for you already by the payment area. I've been at barbershops where they turn the customer around like this, but in those instances there were mirrors on each wall both in front and behind. It's all a little odd. The barber didn't say a word to me at all which was also kind of strange but he wasn't unfriendly. Parking is ample which is good. I was honestly on the fence whether to give this review 3 or 4 stars. I wasn't entirely comfortable being there between not having a mirror and a barber who didn't talk, but I gave it 4 stars because the cut turned out decently and that's most important. read more

Always get a good haircut and they are friendly. Almost never have to wait to long to get my haircut. It's too bad that they don't have better parking, even though it's not their fault. It's just good to know that their is always a friendly face to greet you when you walk in and a thank you when you leave. I have been getting my haircut there since the day they opened. I tried other shops on the days they were closed but I keep coming back because I know I will be getting a good haircut. read more

No appointment. Fast and efficient #2 cut, with a hot cloth compress and a straight razor clean up for $21. Great guys, cash only but they let me run to the ATM, and they earned a good tip! read more

Went there 3 times while renting a Venice home for 2 months. Convenient online booking tool (Booksy). Best haircut in memory. Nice owner Mike- who was my barber. Nice coworker barber Kim. Fair price with kind discount for seniors. Will miss them until next trip. read more

Wonderful, ideal local business run by father & son. Very satisfied with my cut. Will be back when I'm in the area for sure. Strongly recommend! read more

Great place to get a quick high quality cut. These no nonsense barbers get you in and out looking good.

I drive down from North Sarasota to get the best haircut anywhere on the west coast of Florida. I am a pain in the ass New Yorker who is very particular about my hair and Debbie is as good as it gets! read more

Venice Barber Shop - Barbers Near Me - South Venice, Florida

Found something I can't find back home - a real barbershop. One that can cut men's hair. Fair price. Manly ambiance. What more could you ask for, eh? I'll be back next trip down. *FYI - for some reason Yelps map thingy takes you to the wrong place - had to plug their address into the Google maps app to find it. Yelp has address right - but Apple Maps gets it wrong. read more

Great place to get a simple cut like a fade for a good price. I've been to other barbers in Venice who charge $35 plus tips and these guys do just as good of a job for $21! They only do walk-ins and only accept cash FYI. They also give you a stamp card and after 5 haircuts, you get $5 off your next one. This will be my go-to barber from now on! read more

This is my first winter in Venice and I was due for a haircut. I decided to go old school and get away from the "salon" type cut. Glad I did. This is a great place. They open at 8:30 on Saturday. I got there at 8:30 and was 7th in line. I was assured it wouldn't be long, and it wasn't. Jeff cut my hair. I told him it was my first clipper cut since the late 60's, and he did a fantastic job. I didn't get it cut high and tight, but just long enough to have something to drag a comb through. Perfect. I watched the first six guys get everything from a buzz cut to a flat top, and a cut like mine. They all looked good. If I'm in Venice, this is the only place that'll cut my hair. read more

I got a really great haircut from Louie, he just started there. Go see him next time, you won't be disappointed, Guaranteed!!!

Too expensive at $15 for a haircut that took only 5 minutes. You know, old guy with little hair on top and some around the fringes.

The last real barber I went to was in Boston before I retired. Since retiring I always went to one of the chain store salons. The haircuts were okay, but nothing like a real barber. So, based on reviews I decided to give Venice Barber Shop a try. Well, I could not be happier with the result. I like a traditional men's haircut and Venice Barber Shop delivered! No more chain salons for me. If you like the real barber shop experience this is the place for you. I only wish I had stopped in sooner! read more

Asked too not touch the top of my hair and leave a good amount. Cut me almost like a buzz cut. Do not recommend this place. They do not listen read more

Husband and I drove around For about 15 minutes and then decided to call the barbershop to find out yelp has them listed in the wrong location the barbershop is actually to the right of the courthouse on 41 in Venice in a strip mall plaza. Totally recommend the barbershop but unfortunate that yelp may be interfering with future customers who give up searching for it. Due to the incorrect address. read more

Went in and he was able to get right to us. Described what we wanted and did a great job. Good conversation too. My 12 yr son especially liked the neck massage after. Great place to go! read more

Great place. Professional barbers doing a Professional job. Hair stylist at 3 times the price can't compare to a Professional barberCould not recommend highly enough. The haircuts goin out looked fantastic. This isn't Floyd's type of barber. Can handle about any type of hair. Definitely will return. Great prices,great cut. read more

Awesome place. Good old fashioned Barber Shop, does a great job, at a very fair price. I hesitate to leave this review because it only means more men will be in line before me. read more

Very easy going, friendly people that do an outstanding job. This was the first place I tried when getting a haircut when I moved down to Florida and this will be the only place I get it cut. Haircuts are inexpensive and they also offer a discount punch card which after 5 visits you get some money off your next visit, and I would recommend them to anyone!! read more

Went here two weeks ago. They do a good job of keeping people in the correct order by giving numbered wooden disks. I was turned off by the disgusting amount of cut hair on the floor. After waiting a short time I noticed that the wall mirror was peppered with Trump propaganda bumper stickers. I think this is inappropriate for a business that welcomes the general public. I then walked out without a haircut. read more

I spent a long time looking for A satisfactory place to go to get my hair cut...Becuase for a while there being "PICKY" just wasn't a option when I moved back to venice 6 months ago..I tried fantastic sams...and a few other well known places, walking out way worse than I walked in..to say the least I get above and beyond what I could want out of a hair cut here.Both kyle and his father Jeff do a great job I dont perfer one or the other.but I ussually hold a good convo with kyle, as hes close to my age..Price is very Affordable..if your looking for a spot you can walk in feel comfortable with the environment and people&get a Great cut this is the place! read more

I went there last year while I was here in Venice and was quite satisfied. This time, however, was a major disappointment. In fact I now have the worst haircut I think I've ever had. I asked for a trim and 4 to 5 minutes later I was scalped. I've not had hair this short since I was a teenager. Will not be returning. Ken S read more

Walked in, sat down, and in what felt like five minutes had a decent haircut. Can't beat old-fashion.

I tried a few other barbers before finding the Venice Barber Shop. This is now my 'go to' barber when in Venice for the winter. Jeffery not only gave me a good haircut for a reasonable price but it included a warm lather shave on the back of the neck and back massage. read more

My previous barber messed up the part and didn't cut my hair the way I wanted. This barber was excellent. I told him what I wanted and he have me an excellent cut at a very reasonable price. read more

I am very particular when it comes to having my hair cut and have had the same barber for years at home in New Brunswick, Canada. So locating and trusting a barber unknown to me in Venice, Florida was a risk. After much research of the barbers in the area, I had a gut sense that Venice Barber Shop might be the one. Upon entering I watched as Jeff, the owner, and his son, Kyle, cut the hair on their very different clients. When it came my turn, I asked which barber might be better at trimming my beard. Jeff said Kyle does a good job on beards, so I sat in Kyle's chair. I explained I was very fussy about my hair and beard and explained what I preferred and what I didn't want, and after some discussion Kyle went to work on my hair. Turned away from the mirror, I was a little anxious about the progress. Kyle cut with clippers and shears. When Kyle turned me to the mirror, I was very impressed at his skill. Kyle asked whether it was satisfactory and I asked if he could take a little more off, as Kyle had said before he started that he would be happy to do any adjustments, and so he proceeded. I was so pleased when Kyle finished. Then Kyle trimmed my beard to perfection. Trimmed my ears and eye boroughs. An added treat was a brief upper back massage, which is standard with all hair cuts. Finally I was also quite satisfied with the price. I believe in giving credit where credit is due and that is why I am writing this review and recommending Venice Barber Shop at 3956 Tamiami Trail South (across from Race Track gas station near Jacaranda Blvd). I know this is my barber while I spend the winter months in beautiful Venice, Fl. and I will see Kyle and Jeff again in 4 weeks. Great guys and a great barber shop! read more
