For $30, my haircut was not worth it. It was not faded properly and not what I asked for. I would give it 0 if I could.
Ive been a regular customer at Fountain Square Barber Shop for a little over a year now, and I cant say enough good things about the place. Great atmosphere and theme that carries on the legacy of what barbershops used to be. Friendly barbers who always know how to give you the exact cut you are looking for. Ive been getting cuts from Matthew and Jacob, and theyre top-notch barbers. Great haircut quality and overall experience for the price, highly recommended!
Everyone there is outstanding, and their skills are impeccable. Add more songs to the list. The loop is too short. Theres not nearly enough. Wonderful place.
Jasmin G. was amazing! She made great conversation and gave a quality haircut. She was super gentle cutting my hair. She didnt pressure me at any point. Absolutely give this woman a raise. She was awesome!
Yall did an amazing job. Next time I pass through Indiana FS Barber is the first stop. Clean store that was incredibly aesthetically pleasing. The dog treats. The attitude of the employees. The beard trim and cut. Everything was great.
The atmosphere is great. People walk in, appointment or not, theyre greeted the same, offered a drink, and asked to hang out while someone gets ready to help them. I see Zach every time I go and he is awesome. Very friendly, and knows what hes doing every time.
Jake was awesome! Even staying a little past closing on a Friday night to get me fixed up! Keep up the great work guys...Ill definitely be back!
Always a great cut! Good conversation and atmosphere too.
Zach is great. Easy to set appointments. Good vibes.
Terrific service and an authentically awesome atmosphere. This should be your first choice when in Indy, whether a visitor or a local
The service and environment is top notch. After Jacob took care of me, Ill never go to another barbershop. This place sets the standard.
This is a pretty cool place. The barbers are great. I take my son here and he really enjoys the conversation and jokes. The classic barbers chairs are very cool and remind me of the days when my dad would take me to Larrys barbershop. Plus, you can shoot over to upland or new day afterwards and enjoy a snack and brew.
Great people. Great cuts. You wont be disappointed.
Always exemplary service and atmosphere. A true asset to the Fountain Square community! I still drive here now that I moved to Fishers. 10/10 recommend.
José was awesome and did a killer job! Got an appointment same day luckily!
Really great cut. Super quick. Reasonable price.
Mac was the best, pure and simple. I loved the atmosphere and didnt feel like he was rushed to get me out of the chair, but wanted to make sure I walked out of there with the next haircut I could get.
Great barber shop in a great location
Walked past this place several times, and finally decided to give it a go. Hot lather head shave for the win. Classic decor, good conversation, reasonably priced. Ill be back!
This is an excellent barbershop with a vintage atmosphere and superb service. I’ve been coming here for over five years. Matthew is an excellent barber and a fantastic person; welcoming, funny and professional. Customer satisfaction is their #1 goal. I always leave with a smile.
Always easy to schedule and a good experience.
Matt always goes above and beyond your average barber. Always makes me feel welcome, has great culture in his shop, and has never disappointed with his ability to give a ln exceptional cut. I drive 25 minutes to get my hair cut here when I have 5 shops within 5 minutes of my home. No question, this is the best barber shop in Indianapolis.
The most authentic, vintage barbershop in Indy. They really pay attention to detail and make sure the customer is satisfied.
My husband always goes here for his haircuts. He loves it. Everyone there is so kind, especially Mac. Today their door was open when I walked by with our dogs. They peeked in and were met with treats, so sweet. 🙃
Awesome experience and nice staff. Slightly overpriced however.
Best barber shop in town.
Eric is THE MAN when it comes to haircuts and beard trims. Hell leave you looking fresh and feeling fine. Hes the best at what he does. Book w/ him ASAP
Great job Jacob gave an amazing haircut. I’ll for sure be returning for another haircut!
Best haircut I have ever had! Full of old barber items and history. The owner is amazing at cutting hair. Go here and you will not be disappointed. Its an experience instead of just a haircut.
Great cut. Very thorough and didnt rush. Check out if you need to look good.
First time customer made to feel at home
They were fantastic and professional. My only experience with hair cutting has mostly been Great clips, so this was a breath of fresh air. A little more expensive, but you genuinely get what you pay for.
Great cuts and great service. Would recommend to anybody.
Service was great,timely and the atmosphere was friendly.
The barber at chair 1 worked efficiently, but still did a fantastic job executing the style I was going for to a T. I usually pay $25 (including tip), but my old barber moved out of state. I came here for the first time and had no problem paying $30 ($40 with tip) for the service provided.
I got a good haircut
Its been so long since I had a proper haircut, I forgot that you dont have to put up with having clippers gouged into your scalp. Britney was great; professional and talented. Ill definitely be going back.
True barbershop experience, love the atmosphere and all the barbers. Eric has been my barber for over 3 years and I wouldn’t go to anyone else.
Zach is great! Hes open to my ideas for my toddlers hair, informative with feedback on my preferences, extremely patient with my kiddo & really good at talking to him like hes a part of the process.Also, the place, in general, is inviting and friendly and relaxed. And great pricing! I will happily pay $20 for a quality kid’s cut at a barber shop that takes reservations and treats my kid nicely.
One of the best barber shops in town. Super friendly guys. Ive never had a bad experience or haircut.
There are few authentic things in this world & the barbershop @ fountain square is one of them. Sure you could pay a bit less @ Sport clips / great clips spending around 8 minutes watching a screen & get back to your busy life.I prefer to take a minute get a great cut & get a real conversation & connection with the people and events happening in my community. This is where you will see most customers greeted by first name when they cross the threshold & often times pick up on conversation from the previous visit.
One of the best haircuts Ive had in a long time. This is my new place.After multiple visits: Each visit is the best haircut Ive ever had. This shop is outstanding!
Nice clean barbershop!
I live in the neighborhood and walk my dog past here often. The place is always busy and has a chic vintage barber shop style. But most importantly, these guys are great for the neighborhood! Each time I walk past with my dog they come out and give him a treat. Classic gentlemen, adding so much value to fountain square! Support local shops!
The only reason why this is a four star review and not a five is because of the way I was spoken to and treated on the phone. When I called to schedule an appointment the person I spoke with wasn’t very patient with me. I’m not sure what happened... we all have our days.I decided I would still give them a shot. I wasn’t disappointed. I told Zach I had made the mistake of going to a Great Clips for a cheap cleanup. They had ruined my hair and didn’t do any of what I asked.He was helpful and friendly. He helped with giving me a proper lineup (even though due to the hack job I had was nearly impossible), took my idea into consideration, and did best to give me a proper cut and fade.I will be back in a few weeks after it grows out to continue to fix my hair and get it where it needs to be.I was satisfied with the cut. 😊
It was welcoming and fun. Brittany helped me figure out what to do with my hair and she made it look a lot better than I’d had it. The facility was clean and had a cool, old-time barbershop feel plus a huge Christmas Story style leg lamp.
Eric is my go-to for excellent haircuts. No other barber can do what he can. I cant sing enough praises about his skills. Hes meticulous, diligent, patient, and so gentle. Hell ensure that you leave his chair feeling like a hundred percent. Ive moved away from the area and find other barbers to sorely lack the skills that Eric has. My spouse had their hair cut by Eric as well and was extremely pleased.Ill definitely drop in again anytime I visit Indy!
Always take good care of me. Always look good. Been at this barber shop for 2 years or so now. Never had a bad cut!
Top notch service.
Matthew is the best Barber Im from Michigan and only let one person cut my hair and he is amazing made me feel like family from day one !!
A great experience all around.
Great barbers great atmosphere and awesome experience. We got there right as they were getting ready to close and we were welcomed in by Mac and had one of the best haircut experiences I have had. Thanks for your work and great hospitality!
LOVE IT!!! Had my first classic barber in Albany NY last summer and I wanted to find something similar in Indy. Found it! I wont be going anywhere else...unless I make it back to Albany some day.
TLDR: Their service is top notch, their attention to detail is on point, they are friendly, and I have had a great haircut every single time for the last 3 years.
Interesting place, for sure. I booked with the soonest available person, but ended up getting my haircut by someone else. They have a unique, customer centric approach. If youre waiting and another barber finishes up and doesnt have a client waiting, theyll take you next. Even if you didnt book with them.The place is constantly swept and cleaned. The crew makes a big deal out of saying please and thank you anytime someone answers the phone or cleans up the floor.I did have some small hairs missed on my cut, but not the end of the world. It happens. Cool place though. Definitely stop in.
I was able to schedule my appointment conveniently online, I was in the chair on time, my barber was Ana, I had scheduled a haircut and beard trim and it was the absolute best! My only disappointment was when Ana explained that it was her last day & that she was moving out of town. I will absolutely come back again as it is conveniently located near my office downtown. Hopefully I will approve/love the next haircut as much as I did this one.
Eric always gets me on point!! Been going here for 3 years and havent found anyone who gets me quite as good!!
The professional and prompt attention to provide the style of cut. I was requesting. Clean professional and friendly atmosphere.
The haircut I get here is always phenomenal! The only thing stopping me from giving this a 5 star rating and throughly loving this places is the atmosphere. If it was a little more done up on the inside and had an heir of sophistication it would be great! But as is its a little run down, dirty, and the employees arent the most engaging.
Great job
Friendly atmosphere, experiencex staff.
Best barbers in Indy. Ive been bouncing around from barber to barber for years never really happy until now. They do a great job with my 5 year old son too. Its worth the 30 minute drive for me.
Matthew is great. Been going for nearly 3 years now. Cant ask for a better atmosphere and cut.
Real classic looking barbershop with old tunes playing in the background. My baber, Brittani, was quick efficient and was able to tailor my hair to my face based on some photos! Im generally anxious getting my haircut somewhere for the first time but I couldnt be happier with the way it turned out.
There isnt enough good things to say about this place. The barbers are exceptional and worth the price. They will spend around 30-40 minutes per haircut to ensure it is exactly how you want your hair. The price includes a straight razor neck shave which is my favorite part in order to keep the neckline clean. I personally use Quentin and would put him up against anybody. He takes pride in his work and checks in throughout the haircut to ensure he is on target for your request. Conversation is casual but very entertaining. The characters who enter during your time will keep you thoroughly entertained. This place has done well to keep the barbershop feeling alive and well in the Fountain Square area.
Best barber shop in town! Matthew and crew are top notch and always make you feel welcome. Along with the great haircuts and classic hot lather shaves, the old barbershop decor and music by the great crooners and big band era hits rounds out an overall experience that is unparalleled in todays world of cheap cuts and tacky shops. Highly recommended!
Jose is great
Great place to get a cut all the staff treats you like your best friends.
I truly cant recommend this place enough. Zach is awesome.!
Excellent haircut. Real attention to craft. The atmosphere is great. Old school barbershop that comes at it naturally, not attempting to fabric a retro feel.
This is the best men’s barbershop I’ve been to in Indianapolis. Consistently great results, great atmosphere, respectful of appointment timing. The folks here are highly skilled and take pride in their work. I will not be going anywhere else as long as I live here. If you are a dude with hair, go here.
Ive had nothing but pleasant experiences happily leaving my hairs good appearance in the capable hands of Fountain Square Barber Shops staff. Atmosphere, friendliness, and competence are the three main reasons I keep coming back!
Jazmine was awesome ill be back soon for her to cut my hair..
Mac. Wow. Great will coming back.
Hard to find a good barber during COVID.
I just received my first cut here from Ana and it turned out perfect. She is very nice and accommodating to requests. Definitely book here and enjoy the old school feel of the building and the surroundings. All of the staff is very friendly and the cuts are fairly priced.
Fountain Square Barber Shop was recommended by a colleague and he recommended scheduling with Matthew. I’m very happy I did as I’ve tried other places in or near the downtown area and did not have the best of cuts. Matthew did an outstanding job and I finally found a place and a talented barber/hair stylist I can trust.
Matthew is the best barber there and a very friendly owner
I absolutely love this barber shop!!! The barbers are all good at what they do and very sociable. its a ole timey kind of barber shop. So dont be surprised to see your barber dressed in a white dress shirt and black bow tie.,👍
Best cut I’ve got!
Fantastic cut every single time. 0 complaints. Theyre the best. Very happy with all the service. Fantastic!
They do a nice job and take their time
Would highly recommended this place! First time in Indianapolis and needed a cut. Got in the same day and the barber was awesome. Very friendly and talked about the history of the city.
Dont get my haircut often, I asked for a 3 on top but forgot to mention I meant inches and not shear size. The barber did a great job clarifying my words and making sure he knew what I wanted. He gave me a fantastic cut Im very happy with.
Mac gives the best in town haircuts and the atmosphere is what I envision a barbershop should be. You can beat the jazz music and the vintage barbershop feel.
Probably the best barber Ive ever been to. Ive been to barber shops all across the country from travel, and Matt provides the best hospitality. Not only does he give you a haircut, but provides a quality experience. Getting a haircut isnt just about a cut, rather about how the whole experience goes. A must go to barber.
Highly recommend Ana! My girlfriend says that she is the only one allowed to cut my hair now because she does such a better job than anyone else Ive ever gone to!
First visit to this shop today and I was extremely happy with it. Quintin gave me the cut I was looking for and was very patient with adjustments. His attention to the finest details, including a straight razor, was top notch. Ive not had that at a shop for a long time. Shave, full head rinse after, and product, the full package. Everyone in the shop was super nice and professional. Lowest price Ive found downtown for the quality. Really cool old school barber vibe too. This is my new barbershop!
Best barber experience I have had in years. As a customer you feel like your barbers priority. Comfortable and done well.
$50 bucks for a bald fade and line up .. holy cow 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Great service, Great cuts
Have been coming here regularly for the past 6-7 months, old school barber shop (20s theme). Best fade I have ever had! Appointment only but if you walk in and there happens to be a chair open I havent seen them turn someone down.
Anna regularly gives me the best haircuts Ive ever had... And I went to Mike Burouzi for 20 years so I know a good haircut
Big fan of this place. All of the barbers are excellent and will start a nice convo with you. Love the old school vibe, too -- white shirts and ties included. Hang out for 30 min or so and come out feeling fresh.
Great Barbershop with an old time feel.
Not worth the price!I asked for a skin fade and to “LEAVE THE TOP ALONE!!”I get a skin fade and the guy starts scissoring the top of my head.I asked him to “RAZOR THE EDGES OF MY BEARD!”I get shaved only in the back.I ask him to “SQUARE TRIM MY CHEEKS!”He curve trims them.NOT COMING BACK!!The Dominican Barber will razor shave every surface that gets hit with a 0 guard. I’ve paid them $35 with a $10 tip.The fountain square barber charges $40 standard.
Brittany is fantastic at her job and the staff is always very friendly. We love Fountain Square Barber Shop!
Quick, affordable and I received an immediate complement from my girlfriend, “This is the sexiest haircut you’ve had since I met you.”
I would give them more stars but I cant for the life of me understand why one haircut should cost 40$
