Just wanted to blog a short note about the Bond Street Barber Shop in Downtown Bend. I went there for a haircut for the first time Tuesday after work, it’s a nice place. The big draw, though, is the complimentary beer and wine you get while you’re waiting!
Yep, you read that right. They stock Cascade Lakes beer (and a few macros), but I didn’t see what variety of wine; I thought maybe there was a bottle of Yellow Tail red something, but I couldn’t be sure. And on Saturdays, they also have Bloody Marys.
As far as haircut experiences go, they were good. A bit of a wait, actually (I was waiting for almost a half hour, then another half hour to cut my hair), but they’re old school—straight razors for the fine hairs and everything. I was happy with what I walked out with.
So it’ll likely be my regular barbershop from now on; anytime you can combine scissors, straight razors and beer, you know you’re in for a good time!
Where is such a place in Vancouver????? 😉
The Bend salon I currently patronize, The Hair Gallary, offers complimentary beer. You can’t count on the quality, though. The first time I went, I enjoyed a JubelAle. Corona was offered on my second visit (ick!)…
They do kids’ hair, too — did you see the cool car? Kids don’t get beer, though.
That is where mr. h goes and now I know why!
