A true modern speakeasy, the Blind Barber offers all of the needs of "the modern man" including "grooming, cocktails, fashion, and lifestyle"- although, of course, ladies are totally invited too. You can catch them on 10th St. in the East Village, on Lorimer in Brooklyn, or even in LA.
This East Village barbershop is, quite possibly, one of the coolest stops on our NY Cocktail Tour. The owners wanted to make the space for socialization that old school barbershops used to create. Grab a shave or haircut and receive a free drink, or just head through the shop to that back door (if it's open) to enjoy a craft cocktail and some equally delicious nosh.
