Description
Mike’s Barber Shop in Princeton, NJ is a gentleman's shop, reminiscent of the classic barbershops of the past. They offer a variety of styles, from kid's cuts to fades, as well as hot towel shaves. There are TV's at each station and Mike's collection of sports memorabilia decorating the walls. They offer complimentary coffee/espresso and magazines galore to read while you wait. Maybe even a beer too. Mike and his staff are very friendly and would love to have conversation instead of sitting quiet during the haircut.

This is the only great place for man's haircut in Princeton. Mike and his co-workers are always attentive and professional. The wait time could be longer at times, but it worth it and you are always offered a cup of coffee or even a beer!read more

I have had two haircuts here. I can say they beat everyone in the area for the man hair cut skills.

I had one of the best haircuts in years a couple weeks ago. Great atmosphere and great people to chat with while getting a cut. I highly recommend.

Mike’s is the best! Quality care from quality people. I’ve been coming here now monthly for 5 years straight and love the service. Mike is a staple in the local community (he seems to know everyone in town!), and he’s hired great barbers to work alongside him. Olivia, Erin, Jenn & Bruce. All up for a good chat and will be happy to either cater to your specs or can work their magic if you rather they take the lead. They‘ll offer you a fresh espresso or easy K-cup coffee each time you come, or will hand you a fresh beer on tap any time of day :) they also offer shaves and have been good at staying safe during the COVID pandemic! They even now have an easy appointment scheduling tool on their website, making it easy to see who’s available at which times. Highly recommend!!read more

I've been searching for a barbershop in the area for four years, and a (great) friend recommended Mike's Barbershop. I've had my cut by 'Mike the Barber' and Jessica, great fade, and excellent scissors/buzzer work. I've had a low fade, a shape-up, and am currently growing my hair out. They've accommodated each request and delivered; veteran-friendly, student-friendly, and a local's favorite barbershop.They welcome appointments and walk-ins.read more

Mike is the man. I have extremely stiff Asian hair that is very difficult to cut, but Mike always makes my hair look fantastic. Service is quick and the atmosphere is relaxed. Have yet to find a better barber anywhere.read more

Really enjoyed my cut! Wasn't exactly sure what I wanted but Mike left me a happy customer. $30 for a quality cut, I look forward to coming back! Cash only and he's busy so better to make an appointment.read more

Mike deserves a lot of credit for creating a small business from the heart and making it his own. The atmosphere is great and Mike is always welcoming. All of the hair cutters are awesome.

Kris was awesome. She took her time and gave a 10/10 cut. Mike was handing out beer and Jersey sarcasm while giving great cuts too.

Just had one of the best haircuts of my life. No kidding. And my hair not easy to cut. Olivia approached my unruly locks (uncut for over two months) with style and intent. End result was exactly what I asked for and achieved with friendliness and courtesy. Walk in, open 7 days a week. 5 stars plus!read more

Mike's barber shop is a good choice for getting a local haircut. I came in looking to go back to my pre-pandemic look after growing my hair for 2+ years.I'll start by saying that I like the appointment system. When I visited barbershops several years ago, there was usually no mechanism for appointments. Not having to wait in line is great. Next, I booked a long cut and I believe it was Jess performed it. She was very thorough and was able to mostly recreate the photos I shared with her (one being the wedding photo I attached). I went from the long curly hair to short taper and I'm pretty satisfied with the result.read more

I usually see Jess, but I’ve also seen Mike himself and both are top quality barbers. Booking an appointment is super easy and convenient and the shop itself is very homely. Friendly staff, atmosphere and fair prices all in the heart of Princeton!read more

Amazing place. Mike does my 2 year old's hair and we love it! This shop is the only one with a steady enough hand to cut a squirming kid's hair and have him look amazing. Fun atmosphere, really nice staff, skilled barbers.read more

It doesn't get better than Mike's. You get exactly what you ask for. If you're early you can lounge around in one of the comfortable sofas and chat it up or read some books and magazines. Espresso, coffee and other beverages are just a request away. I love this place!!read more

My first time here and I had a great haircut by Mike. We had small talk, then I let him get right to work. I am from PA. When COVID hit, Tom Wolf, (I Hate) not open PA back up. I needed a haircut, ASAP. I found Mike barbershop on google. I made appointment then after work, drove right there. Hopefully, I return in the future. Town of Princeton very nice. Also my cousin is a Princeton field hockey player alumni. I will return, no doubt.read more

The student discount is a nice touch and I've never had any issues with them! The only thing is that they are CASH ONLY!
