Great haircuts and a great price. There are usually enough people working so there is almost no wait time.

Met at the door ( I walked in , no appointment) by a barber who needed his hair cut , his barber coat was dirty & he lacked grooming. Really didn't seem interested in what I wanted regarding my haircut, he just wanted to talk. He wasn't really interested in doing anything with precision or detail. read more

Happy customer for his first hair cut! We brought an iPad to play a tv show to distract our toddler but Dana was so quick and cheery with our 2 year old son he barely needed a distraction to keep him still. There was one guy before us in line for a haircut. He offered to let our son go first. So nice, and we took him up on it so our squirmy toddler could get in and out quickly. Just a old school place with loyal customers. read more

Always an excellent haircut .All the barbers there have cut my hair and they all are great.Very highly recommend Phil's Barber Shop.

I love getting my haircut here! I've been here twice and they've always done a very good job! They're located off Centre Street and there is usually plenty of street parking. Inside, it is like one of those old-fashioned barbershops. It feels very homey and all the barbers are very personal and professional. There are usually four barbers working and I've never had to wait for longer than 20 minutes. They have about 10 chairs for customers that are waiting and a coat rack on the right side once you enter the door. My personal favorite barber is Mike! The barbers here actually care about you as a person and get to know you! What a concept! They're very friendly and will have a conversation with you. They also take their time and don't rush to cut your hair as quick as they can like some chain barbershops. I pay $17 every time I get my haircut here which is comparable to other places but since this place is so personal with good customer service and nicer people in general I will bring my business here read more

Phil's Barber Shop - Pricing - Barbers Near Me - West Roxbury, Massachusetts

So, yes I'm an oddball Bills fan living in Boston, but for me, dressed in Bills gear, this was the LAST place I should have gone. Sat in a chair admiring the Patriots wall of fame over the guys mirror. He said something snide to me and anipped off about an inch and said he was done. I said, " no, we gotta go shorter! " so he snipped off another inch and said he was done. At that point, o realized he just wanted to get Yhe Bills guy out, so I left, feeling unfinished. Wife took me to her girl and got me done for our wedding! read more

Phil's Barber Shop - Me. - Barbers Near Me - West Roxbury, Massachusetts

The guy was nice enough but I walked out feeling like I could have done a better job myself. I just wanted my mustache and goatee trimmed, as well as the side of my face cleaned up. I sit down in the chair and my worst fear comes true: The guy goes directly at the handlebars I had been cultivating for over two months with his clippers. Its not the worst ever but he took off a lot more than I would have liked. I've included a the before and after for anyone who is interestedz read more

The only barber shop I'll go to! Dana is the ideal barber. Friendly, can make conversation with anyone, and gives a great haircut at a reasonable price. I've never had a complaint about the haircut I've gotten here. It can be so hard to find the right barber and I'm glad I got lucky and found Dana and his shop read more

This is what one would call a good, no frills barber shop...nothing more. I've been going to Phil's on and off since some time in the 1970s and it's very much the same as it ever was. You walk in. If it's a Saturday or late afternoon Friday, you wait a bit. You get your hair cut. You chat with the barber. You look good. You pay. You go home. That's it. That's all you needed anyway. Phil's is friendly and customers can get a beard trim or razor cut if they want. The barbers are friendly and professional. They don't try to sell a boatload of products and services or try to create an atmosphere...they cut hair. And they do it pretty well. If you want wild styling, an "experience," or a high level of pampering, this isn't the place for you. However...if you want a haircut, Phil's is pretty good. read more

Been going here for over 30 years. From Dan Sr. to Andy to now Mike, I've never had a bad haircut. Dana, Danny and Mike know their beers as well as their haircuts. Always a good cut and good conversation. Lifetime customer! read more

Great cuts from an experienced fella. I will be back for more hair maintenance.

Based on what happened when I went back this morning to talk to them about my bad cut and get a refund or some sort of compensation, I'd like to change my review from one star to zero stars. Seriously, yelp needs to add a zero star option. These guys not only started to rudely talk to me and "curse" at me but I couldn't believe how incredibly offensive some of the stuff I heard coming out of one barbers mouth was... not towards me, but towards elementary/middle school aged children! I called up the shop Thursday morning to try to talk with the owner or a manager to explain the situation. I asked the first guy who picked up if he was the owner or manager and he just goes "what do you need" and I ask him again and he says "yah, what do you want". I tell him the whole story and he just goes "yah, so it took you an hour" and I had to painfully and directly finally go "I just want my money back" because he wasn't making any effort on his end. He goes "ok I'm busy, yah yah yah" and hangs up. I was in and head to the right half of the shop where these two guys are. There are two guys there I start talking to both of them and tell them the story. I asked if any of them were the one I spoke to and the round headed guy says it wasn't him and the white haired clean shaven guy goes "who cut your hair?". The guy who did cut my hair had a customer in his chair and I didn't go in there to try to disturb their business or make them look bad or start a scene so I very quietly pointed behind me and said first chair right as you enter so him or his client wouldn't hear me. This white haired dude sounded like the person I spoke to when I called (even though he said he wasn't). He says, we'll then you'll have to speak to him, we didn't speak to you and we didn't cut your hair. I asked him, what about the manager I spoke to, "was that you", and he goes "I don't know who you spoke to". I said, who's the owner, and he just goes "talk to him" pointing to the same guy who cut my hair and he goes back to cutting his clients hair. My guy had a client in his chair so I waited respectfully for 10-15 mins until he finished and his client had left. I said "hey, excuse me" and respectfully proceeded to tell him how I came in, he cut my hair, and I said I was really sorry but the haircut was really uneven etc etc and I just wanted my money back. He's about to give me back my money. I say again, I'm really sorry about this but... he hands me $17 and I have to painfully tell him "it was actually $20". Now the white haired clean shaved guy gets in the way, speaks up and goes "it was $17" I tell him no I gave him $20 and he goes the haircut is $17 buddy and points to the sign. Now he's suddenly playing the role of the owner when he made me wait to speak to the guy who cut my hair for 15 mins!? So I say "I gave him $20 and I'm not going to tip for a bad haircut". The other barbers in the shop aren't saying anything. The guy who gave me the bad cut isn't saying anything and was giving me the $20 before this white haired guy stopped him. Now the white haired guy hands me $20 and tells me don't come back. I take my money and say "I don't plan to and turn to leave. Up to this point the guy was angry but civil enough, even though he was trying to be sleazy and avoid paying me. As I turn to leave he goes "screwball" and now I'm angry so I turn and go "hey, I work hard for my money just like you do". Now he gets into it with me even though he said at first that he wasn't the owner, he didn't cut my hair, and it wasn't his business. I didn't understand why HE was getting mad when the guy who cut my hair wasn't (he was definitely the owner). He cursed some more, made fun of the fact that I was wearing athletic clothing (like you're supposed to come in a full suit for a haircut?), implied I was poor and unemployed (I'm a med school student), said he makes more money than me, etc. I finally told him "have a nice day a%^hole, enjoy watching me drive by in my audi" and left as he shouted "yeah nice rental". I had a feeling something like this was going to happen so I hit record on my phone when things were getting heated. I'll post a link to the recording so you can hear how they treat their customers. I also held the paperwork for the sale of my car that I had bought just a few days prior up to the window of his shop and watched as he suddenly got all quiet and tried to say something before I walked away. At least I got something good out of the experience... that was priceless. Also while I was waiting I was just listening to barbershop conversation and the same white haired guy was talking about elementary and middle school kids referring to them as "those little assholes" and he on countless times called girls "little bitches". He was using anecdotal evidence from his janitor friend at a local school (who shouldn't be talking about what he sees younger kids doing) to form the basis of his "opinions" and refer to them so derogatorily. Stay away! read more

Another great job today....love this shop.....Dana and staff are really sharp and no frills...great job see you in 3 weeks....

I have been going to Phil's for about 20 years now. I would never go to another place. Dana is the best. Even when I went away to school, I made sure I stopped by Phil's to get a cut while I was home. There is a better chance of me cheating on my gf or wife before I would see another barber. read more

Very good, very fast, very friendly! I can see why they have life-time customers.

I have been going to Phils Barber shop for 15 years and faithfully every two weeks. I enjoy the friendly atmosphere, fast service, and attention to detail the barbers provide. Very Business professional and Customer casual. I recommend Phils Barber show every chance i get. The lady's love the haircut.... Now go get yours today! read more

Barber just kinda did his thing.... he didn't really listen to my instructions. Way shorter than I anticipated or requested. Also, doesn't use a straight razor on your neck or face. read more

phils barber shop is good. the guys in the front who are older are good but those guys in the back do not know how to cut hair espessily that guy with the glasses so do not get that guy with the glasses read more

Great shop, I'd recommend this to anyone. Not like the big chain hair cut places, they're friendly and the service is great

Great barber shop. I went there for my haircuts for 24 years. I moved recently and tried another shop within walking distance from my new home and got the worst service I've ever seen anywhere for anything. Phil's has many chairs and many barbers. All of them are good, fast, friendly and professional. I figured out the time. If it takes me 20 mins to drive to Phil's, it'll still be faster than walking 10 mins to the other place and waiting an hour for one cut before me. read more
