Phill’s Barber Shop

610 Lighthouse Ave., Pacific Grove, 334-0698

At Phill’s, the barber shop culture is alive and well. Life slows down, strangers make lively conversation (some guys hang out there just to chat) and well-groomed men walk out the door at the peak of their game. With immaculate, decades-old barber chairs, the largest selection of pomades on the Peninsula and even an Oster Stim-U-Lax that delivers post-cut massages, walking in to Phill’s feels like walking back through time. And Phill, an ever-friendly conversationalist, always gets the cut just right, because as he says, “It’s like Domino’s baby, you gotta deliver.”
