Born in New York City as a neighborhood barbershop and lounge. Blind Barber has grown into a multi-city cultural institution that's been called the bi-coastal spot-to-see-and-be-seen, equal parts grooming ritual, craft cocktail bar, and full on nightlife destination. The concept is deceptively simple: a quaint, old fashioned barber shop up front concealing a surprisingly spacious speakeasy with a lounge and full dance floor in back. The reveal never gets old. Warm lighting, vintage wood detailing, leather booths , and a room that shifts energy as the night deepens, Blind Barber was built for moments.
