It’s always hit and miss finding a barber while travelling but this was an absolute gem! Colin understood exactly what I wanted from the get go and I felt I was in safe hands the whole time. I’m usually also quite picky with my thick Asian hair, but this was handled deftly by Colin. Will def come back next time I’m in Chicago!!

This is an old school barber school with a nostalgic vibe. Great music playing, great banter and camaraderie between the barbers, and classic movies playing on the TV screens. Eric cut my hair before my wedding and we both chatted about family and our time growing up in Southern California. The haircut and hot towel straight razor... exceptional and relaxing

I have tried so many different barbershops in Chicago, but man, Brian really knows his stuff! For sure recommend. The spot is cash-only, but they have an ATM on site.

Belmont Barbershop is a gem. The ambiance is very warm and friendly. I came here for the first time on the recommendation of a good friend who has been coming here for years. I booked my appointment with Eric who was meticulous, professional and personable. I'll be coming back for as long as I live in Chicago.

I've had my hair cut at this shop for a certain number of years and enjoyed the services of a certain number of barbers during that time. I've never left feeling anything but great about the cut that I received, and I've never looked back a week or two later and disagreed with my initial satisfaction. These are very good barbers and kind men.

Recently, my partner started chemo for a stage IV cancer diagnosis. While not unexpected, it did come a bit sooner than anticipated - his hair falling out in clumps. I called Friday to set up a head shave and they shared that unfortunately they do not do straight razor head shaves on the weekends due to the number of children they serve - which makes a ton of sense! Though he heard me out and had us come in - Joshua immediately sat my husband down and started to take care of him. He was quiet, allowing my husband to grieve, but always shared what he was doing and why so as not to startle or draw concern. Joshua was so diligent and caring - offering products to invest in that will help and provided a space for us to struggle with the moment without judgement. You would have thought my husband did shave his head completely with how short he was able to get it! He also kindly waived the fee. Thank you Belmont Barbershop and especially Joshua for the incredible service and care. You have new patronage from us moving forward!

Been going to the Belmont Barbershop for about a year now and always love the results. Eric lined me up after I had let my beard and sides get too shabby. Loved the full service treatment with a hot towel and detailed clean up. Would definitely recommend! Before and after pics below.

Greg is the best barber! I’ve been going to him for years. Brian is also a great barber. The whole team is great at welcoming customers, new and old.
