Our shop

Local barbers who actually know your name

Ashcroft & Sons started with one chair and a simple idea: give the neighbourhood a barbershop worth coming back to. Years later we're still here — same street, same care, sharper than ever.

Our barbers are properly trained and genuinely good company. Pull up a chair, tell us what you're after, and relax. No rush, no pressure — just an honest cut and an hour that feels like a break.

Best barber in the area, no question. Marcus took the time to actually listen and I walked out with the sharpest fade I have had in years.

Relaxed, friendly and properly skilled. They are brilliant with my son too — he used to dread haircuts and now he asks to go.

Hot towel shave and a beard trim before my wedding. Felt like a proper treat. Cannot recommend Ashcroft & Sons highly enough.
