I moved out of the city and still make the drive downtown to get my haircut at Burke and Payne. The entire team is awesome and the vibes in the shop are great. Carlos is the man! He’s always on time and works fast while delivering a high quality haircut every time. The shop is clean and the staff is covid safe. You can’t go wrong getting a cut from Carlos then a pizza from Angelos, it’s the perfect way to start your weekend.
Great place, with one of the best barber crews in Philly. Worth the price.
Cool atmosphere, great personalities, fantastic haircut. Highly recommend
My son loves this place! He used to go to the salon I go to, but then we found Steve at Burke & Payne and now he enjoys going his own barber shop. Cool vibe, fresh cuts, great value. Highly recommend!
Place is absolutely awesome. Always come out with a great cut. Good conversations and music are always had during the hair cut. Cant recommend it enough.
Hands down best barbershop I’ve ever been to. I personally go to my man Carlos and knock on wood i can say 100% of the cuts I’ve got from him have been more than satisfactory. The fades are tight and the cuts are clean. The barbershop is also clean and socially distanced for covid which can be appreciated. Coming from a guy who used to switch barbers ever 2 months, its safe to say I recommend this shop and especially Carlos for your haircuts.
Great barbershop in this neighborhood. All of the barbers that I’ve had are good, but Steve is my guy. Consistently gives top-notch haircuts. He’s meticulous and detailed. Highly recommend
Initially gave them 1 star for a really poor haircut but received a really professional response from the store’s owner who rectified the situation and got a great clean up today from Bud who was super pro. These guys run a really professional business and I should note that they were really really meticulous with their sanitation after each customer which is important these days.
Bud cuts a good head of hair.
I don’t normally leave reviews but for $30 I am not really happy with my cut. The top is ok but he messed up my sideburns and did a sloppy job. I know we wear masks but for this price should be a better cut. This was my first time coming here.
I been a client of Steve’s for awhile. Always treated me with professionalism and my cut always came out perfect. I don’t agree with Jacklyn Pryor comments and trying to defame him. He has always treated me and any of my boy or girlfriends that I have referred with respect no matter what race or gender they are!!!
This barbershop is really the best in the city! Mike and the rest of the team go above and beyond to make sure you have the perfect cut. Ive been coming here for the last 5 years and wouldnt even consider going anywhere else!
Have been going to Burke and Payne for nearly two years. It took me forever to find the perfect barbershop in Philly and this place is it. I go to Carlos. Great dude. The best cuts ever. Everyone here is knowledgeable about hair in ways that I couldn’t imagine and it’s part of a fun, laid back atmosphere where you can shoot the breeze while getting a cut. Always recommend this place to friends looking for a new shop.
I stopped by Burke & Payne for a haircut today and it was another reminder that Jenna is one of the best barbers in Philly. Jenna has cut my hair since I moved to the city in 2015 and I leave the barber chair looking better than when I sat down every single time. As my tastes and hair have changed, she has been able to accommodate different requests and styles because of her experience. And beyond the haircut, I appreciate that shes always there to hear me out and gives good advice.
Excellent!!!Carlos is amazing
Great place, good vibes and atmosphere.
Hands down the best barber shop in Philadelphia. Very welcoming environment and the barbers give you the exact cut you ask for every time. Definitely book your appointment ahead of time as walk-ins are hard to come by due to how busy they are.
I have been here about a dozen times and almosy every time has been great. The barbers are knowledgeable and efficient and are willing to work with you on the style you want. I had one bad experience where the barber had trouble concentrating, but outside of that I have left with great results.I recommend this place for your regular haircuts.
Had to be in town unexpectedly and the booking online was really easy. Ali was really sweet and took time on my beard to make sure it looked great. Will come by again next time Im in town.
Been dealing with the men and women at Burke and Payne barber shop for over 2 years nothing but class and professionalism! Mike runs a great shop! Steve Carlos bud and Ellen have all cut me and there the bust cut in Philadelphia!
Having bounced from barber to barber I was very frustrated. There was always a feeling of not being completely satisfied after each visit. Until I came here tonight! A very welcoming staff got my in and got me freshened up even though i was shaggy when i came in. Got my haircut 4 hours ago roughly and have been getting compliments ever since. Will be back! Definitely recommend!
I recently had a wonderful experience at Burke & Payne. My barber was Ron and he was a true gangster. pleasant and accommodating, inviting and understanding. Not to mention skilled at his trade. He did exactly what i wanted and exuded a degree of excellence in the process that few can match. The place has character and i will never go anywhere else. The previous time i had Carlos who is an animal with similar qualities. Hats off to you, guys.
Great shop with great atmosphere. I go to Carlos who always finesses with the fade, high top, and beard. Very versatile barber.
I was looking neighborhood barbershop where I can get a consistently good haircut and beard trim. I found Burke & Payne to be so much more. The staff is warm and friendly. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming. The conversation is lively and inviting. And the cuts are absolutely fantastic every time. Now that Ive found Burke & Payne, I cant imagine going anywhere else.
I wont get my haircut anywhere else. Carlos has been my guy for almost two years and I can honestly say its the best cut & fade Ive gotten anywhere in the city. The online booking is a breeze, the ambiance of the shop is great, and theres almost always available street parking every time Im there. If you want to look your best, you gotta get your haircut at Burke & Payne.
I moved to Philly about a year ago and have been trying different barber shops since. Not cheap barbers, the expensive ones. Burke & Payne Barber Co. had the best price and by far the best service. Ron cuts my hair and does an amazing job. Very cool shop too!
Very nice and courteous staff, was offered a complimentary water while i was waiting. And very close by and convenient location.
Even though Ashley usually blesses me with her killer barbering skills, Mary stepped up to the challenge and absolutely crushed it! Anyone who can handle my sense of humor and work with my cowlicks is too class, and the barbers at Burke & Payne are the best in Philly period! Though I feel as if I cheated on Ashley, at least I know Mary is an excellent substitute and worth her weight in gold. Thanks for the laughs and the great cut, need a hot shave next time for sure!
I had a really poor experience with Jenna during my haircut. When I arrived she was the only one in the shop and was on her phone lounging. The chair was surrounded by hair from a previous cut. The cut took less then 10 minutes, and she forgot some of my requests. I had to remind her that I wanted a hard part.
Steve gave me one of the best cuts Ive gotten in a long while. Sick fade. Thanks dude.
Best barber in Philly. Visited every 4 weeks for the year I was over in the States from London, never had any issues, cool staff and always left with a fresh trim I was very happy with. Special shoutout to Carlos, excellent attention to detail. Thank you!
Great looking barber shop with good quality services. Thanks Ellen for doing wonderful job on my haircut. Try it out👍
Ive gone to Ron twice for a beard trim. Rons technique is efficient and clean. He has great attention to detail. The first trim was just a clean up and the last was to take a few inches off and clean it up. Both times were excellent. Ill be sticking with Ron for regular trims to keep my beard healthy and looking great. Will recommend to friends.
Came across this place by accident, but so happy I did. Incredibly friendly environment in an old school barber setting. Carlos gave me the best haircut I’ve had in years! I noticed that they all made sure to take their time, and not rush anyone out of the chair. Just moved to Philly and this is exactly what I was looking for!
Moved to Philly a year and a half ago. After having tried several barbers that were all disappointing, I found Burke & Payne. This place is awesome. From booking online to the atmosphere and music inside to the barbers and quality of the cut you get - you cant beat it. Hit up Carlos, he gives a mean cut & some great sports talk.
EDITMike the owner reaches out to me and set up a time to see the haircut. He worked with me to get my hair to a place in was happier with. His willingness to meet with me and make sure I was satisfied speaks volumes and is something I dont see often anymore. This leads me to believe my initial experience is not indicative of the normal work produced here. The man stands by all the work that leaves his shop wants everyone to leave satisfied. Based off this I amend my review and recommend this business.Easily one of the worst haircuts Ive ever gotten. Thought I would try the place out and I was very disappointed. Went in for what was essentially a trim, nothing crazy just enough to give it some shape back and pull it off my ears. What I walked out with was essentially a high fade which cut almost all the length off the side me my head which I specifically said to keep. The top was left alone thank God but looks bad with the sides so short. On top of it not being what I asked for its, not even a good haircut. The fade is average at best and uneven giving my head a lopsided look. Also parts of the hair were not blended leaving clear edges where the hair was cut So it looks unnatural. Worst part is that it cant even be fixed because it got cut so short. The only way it could be salvaged would be to buzz it which would negate the whole reason of wanting to keep the length. So no I have to walk around with this terrible haircut and wait for it to grow out just so I can go pay someone else to try and fix the poor job done here.
Steve my guy sharp with the scissor game and legit knows how to fade. Place is in a great location and solid people there. They’ll take care of you!
Carlos fit me in for a beard trim last minute even though he had a full schedule. Great service and great work! They l everyone send to work pretty fast and all the other guys left looking good too.
I was a walk in from out of town and desperately needed a cut. Carlos squeezed me into his already busy schedule no questions asked. One of the best haircuts I’ve ever received. Will be coming back next time I’m in Philly! Great barbershop!
So, the decision you have to make is; how do you want to spend your time? If you want a great haircut from nice people who are genuinely interested in meeting their clients and giving them the service that they want... then this is where you go! Such a great barber, I honestly think Im getting a promotion because I look so good. No lie.
Great atmosphere awesome people. Love the decorations inside, my first time and wont be my last time. Carlos my barber did an awesome job.
#PHILLYSBESTBARBERBurke & Payne Barber Co. Is easily the best barber shop in Philly. If you dont agree, youve probably never been. Ive been having my hair cut by Mikey Burke for 20 years. Widest range of any barber in Philly. From skin tight fades for summer, to complete scissor cuts for a gentleman look over the winter. Im very demanding when it comes to my hair. They ALWAYS answer the call. These guys are steadily busy so Id suggest booking online vs. walking in. Besides Michael, Carlos & Steve are excellent barbers as well. Take your pick with who does your cut, you really cant go wrong. Also, this is the sister shop to Michaels original baby: Barber on 24th on the northwest corner of 24th and Lombard, one of the busiest and most well known shops in South Philly. If you study or work at UPENN, you already know it. Depending on which side of town you reside these are the only two spots to go. Take my word, you wont be disappointed..
Great place, great haircuts. Fast, professional service at a reasonable price. You wont regret going here.
Having recently moved to South Philly, I hadnt found a barber shop. After doing some searching, I found B&P online and was able to make a same day appointment for a cut. This, coupled with probably the best haircut Ive ever gotten, means I wont be getting my haircut anywhere else. Thanks, Carlos and Burke & Payne!
One of the chicks there did my cut. Not gonna mention her name but she rushed for no reason and there was no one after me. She cut my hair and then sat in the chair on her phone. She was aggressive with the haircut and using the knife to shave the hairs on my neck. I showed her a picture of the cut I wanted and she did not deliver. I will come back just not with her, this place is awesome just had a bad experience.
This is my new monthly spot. Jenna gave me the best haircut ive had in years. Thanks so much yall!
Mike is amazing with my 20 month old son. His cut is perfect and clean! I appreciate the time he takes.
They did a fantastic job on my husbands hair... keeping him handsome. And he was able to book an appointment online for the same day.
Today was my first visit to Burke and Payne, I left completely satisfied! I was able to go in and show Steve a couple of photos and leave with my mixed girl hair cut exactly how I wanted it! Thanks again B&P, Steve is the man!!!!
Fine haircut
Mike and his team run a fantastic old school style barber shop. Good music and phenomenal cuts. Best barber shop in Philadelphia!
What more needs to be said with a 5 🌟 rating. Accolades to Steve who is now my barber. Thank you Steve, I am rocking my new look.
I got a haircut from Steve and the haircut was exactly what I was looking for. Safe to say I will be back, may have found my new barber shop.
Only good things to say about this shop. Smooth online scheduling, always a friendly vibe, and Carlos gets me in and out of there with a great cut every visit.
Got a fantastic haircut here from Carlos. He did exactly what I wanted and gave me some great advice on choosing a style. Also, they take credit cards!
Not a good first impression. First time trying this spot, showed up for my 5:30 appointment with Mike, introduced myself, and he asks me to have a seat and wait and then begins taking another client. I didnt say anything until he asked me a few minutes later (out loud in front of everyone) if I dont just want to have my hair cut with one of the other barbers instead since he still had two more clients ahead of me and estimated it would take an hour. Didnt even apologize or excuse himself. He put me in an awkward position and I went ahead with the other barber who was very sweet and tried to give me the cut I wanted but came short--the side fade is way too high. Dont come here if youre looking for a place that works on an appointment system (I found out that my experience is not unique here). FYI I would not have left this review based on the cut alone.
Best barbershop around! Talented staff and great environment...I recommend tons of guys I know to them because I know they will always get a quality cut.
Spotty quality of service. If you find a barber here that meets your expectations congrats-- avoid experimenting with others. My experience: i was pleased on one occasion, satisfied on another and disgusted on my last visit when the barber was incompetent beyond belief.
Friendly barbers that do a great job. Ive gotten a haircut twice and a beard trim once and have been very satisfied with the outcome for each of them.
I dont normally write reviews... just go here. Ron cuts hair with the precision and ease of an experienced surgeon.
Stevie is an artist... Great cuts, beard trims... Hes very talented.
Awesome spot for a haircut. Cool vibe, quick, professional cuts. Good people.
My go to barber spot. Ali cuts my hair and she is just awesome.
Owner and staff provide great service in a comfortable atmosphere with fair pricing at $30 a cut. Sauvecito and Layrite pomades are sold here as well as Can You Handle Bar beard line. Perfect little shop!
Great haircut. No longer will be traveling out of the neighborhood for a cut - Ally(ie) gave a great cut Ill be back - Terminator
Bud was amazing. Great haircut
Great place to get a haircut. Good vibes and friendly staff.
Thank you Mike!We were so happy with the results of our two sons haircuts!!Luca & CamiloI recommend this place 👍👍👍truly amazing...you are great Mikethe best!!!
Steve took me in without an appointment and did a great job with great customer service.
Get your cut with Ellen!
Moved to broad & Fitzwater 2 weeks ago and walked by B&P Barber Co on 9th & had to check it out. Ive been going to the same Barber for years in Delco & typically only have time on Sundays to get a cut which has always been a hindrance. I booked online in the am, and was very welcomed there by Carlos and the patrons of the hour. I will definitely return as the service, atmosphere & feng shui of this both modern & old school shop was great. -Luke #gobirds Oh,Ill be in before the opener
Great shop! Been coming down from NJ for years to get a cut here
Carlos is the man. Hey is courteous and joyfully when he works.
Vibe and staff are on point, great place, laid back but professional.
Barber shop serving up haircuts in a comfortable vintage setting.
Favorite place to get my hair cut around the area. Fast and a great price.
Favorite barber shop in Philly. Always a great cut.
Burke & Payne is the Le Bec-Fin of barber shops. I wouldn’t get a cut anywhere else
Every year when I visit my parents for the holidays they complain about my beard.This year I asked Carlos to clean me up and for the first time my mother approves!
