All around great shop with classic vibe. All the barbers are talented & friendly, but Greg is your guy to go to for a flat. He is meticulous and professional, taking ample time to make sure you leave looking sharp. He makes great conversation and is a personable guy. The flat he gave me was just what I asked for, short & classic. I like a slight bevel on the sides too & he accomplished that perfectly. He even shaved the sides for me after I changed my mind mid-cut. I've seen him cut a variety of flats, but short ones look to be his forte.

I was really impressed with the cut I got from him & if I ever decide to go flat again, I'll be back to see him!

Great barber shop and Greg is the man to go to for a flattop. Had wanted to go for years and finally made it. I could not have been happier with the result. He is meticulous. A friend who goes there regularly has also got his flattop cut by Will Valentine. He's new to the shop and cuts an amazing flat as well. There are guys who come from all over the world to get a flattop from Barber Greg. He has quite the following, and it is well-deserved. To top it all off he's a great guy too.

UPDATE: Greg, who did a lot of the flattops here, has moved to Old Dog Barbershop (see entry below).
