“One of the best barbershop experiences I’ve ever had. Incredibly welcoming and professional. I’ll always make time to go to Ape Barbers whenever I’m in London. This picture was taken post-haircut and beard-shaping trim. Thanks, and see you soon!”

“The best barbershop in the area. A very friendly and professional team, a cosy atmosphere, and amazing haircuts each time.”
- Pavle Mikovic
This is the newest barbershop in the area, but it's run by my long-time barber. I travel further to get to this shop because he runs the best business in town. You get a personalised haircut tailored to your hair type, a ‘no-rush’ service, and the best fades each and every time. I leave happy with my haircut after every visit. I won’t even say ‘good luck’ to the owner, as his skills require no luck. Best in the game!
- Ali Demircan
“Visited Ape recently on the off chance that they could fit me in at the end of the day! The manager welcomed me in, offered me a Turkish coffee, and was happy to fit me in despite it being closing time. During my appointment, the barber used a deep-cleansing nose mask and talked me through each phase of the cut to make sure I was happy. I’m really pleased with the final result. Highly recommended—I was pleasantly surprised by the extra elements for a quick fix-up. I will definitely be back, thank you!"
