Our Story

Born in a Barber Chair

The Gaff started with one chair, a pair of scissors, and a belief that every man deserves to feel sharp. We opened on Main Street in 2012 and haven't looked back since.

We're not a chain. We're not a franchise. We're a proper neighbourhood barber shop where your barber knows your name, your style, and exactly how you take your coffee.

Whether you're in for a quick tidy-up or the full works — hot towel, shave, scalp massage — you'll leave looking and feeling better than when you walked in.

  • Classic cuts and modern styles
  • Hot towel shave with straight razor
  • Beard sculpting and grooming
  • Walk-ins always welcome
