    The Blind Barber

    Opened about a year ago, The Blind Barber is a barbershop/bar/hangout where customers can come to get a haircut, shave or just have a beer. Co-owner Laub conceptualized the idea with partners Adam Kirsch and Joshua Boyd for a "barbershop lounge mash-up." The bar and barbershop is located in the East Village across from Tompkins Square Park, and promises a quality cut and a cool cocktail.

    Our barbers really care. We’re not in the business of turning tables

    The New York Times describes the unassuming shop as a simple and classic barbershop in the front, equipped with the striped pole and mirrored wall. However, walk down the back hallway and you'll be brought to one of the East Village's coolest haunts, with long bronze bar and antique furniture, nicknamed "Grandpa's Den."
