About Antonio’s Barber Shop
Antonio's Barber Shop is a barber shop on Gloucester Rd in Bristol, with multiple cutting chairs and seating for those waiting. A mural by a local artist decorates the shop. Cuts run from skinfades and burst fades to tapers and slick backs, with beard trims offered alongside haircuts. Customers are offered a coffee and a biscuit, or tea, at the start of a visit. Booking is handled through an online system, though walk-ins can sometimes be fitted in. The shop opens Monday to Saturday and closes on Sundays.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers return most for the fades, with skin fades, burst fades, tapers and slick backs named in praise of one barber in particular. Several customers have gone to him for a year or longer, and several suggest booking in with him. Close behind is the friendly, unhurried atmosphere, where visitors describe being offered coffee, tea or a biscuit, plus a good chat, and say nothing feels rushed. Long-standing regulars cite ten and fifteen years of loyalty, and a visitor passing through Bristol for a last minute pre-Christmas cut praised a barber who explained each step. Parents describe patient cuts for wriggly boys aged 5 and 7, and one describes an emergency fix after a haircut at home went wrong. Beard trims also earn a mention. On the downside, one reviewer calls it far too expensive for what it is and says the same cut could be done at home. Another concedes it is not the cheapest option and that walk-in slots can be limited. One parent went back for a thinning touch-up on a child's cut, which was done without charge.

“I took my boy to Antonio's for an emergency haircut after a haircut at home went a bit wrong. We walked in at 9am and Craig did an amazing job, very friendly and accommodating. We'll definitely be back.”
