One standout feature that customers rave about is the talented barber crew, particularly the likes of Alex, Frank, and Steve.

My wife loves it when I go there.” It’s clear that the barbers here not only possess strong technical skills but also care deeply about their clients' needs.
The personal touch is evident in every haircut, whether it’s the classic straight razor finish that Mark Wesley appreciated or the precision that keeps Anna’s son looking sharp. Geoffrey Gawne highlights how Alex masterfully concealed thinning hair effortlessly—a testament to the expertise available at Bruno’s.
In terms of logistics, the shop might be cash-only, but the prices are incredibly reasonable given the superb quality you receive. With many clients noting they gladly navigate tighter parking in the rear just to enjoy the haircut experience here, it’s evident that Bruno’s is worth the visit, especially since some customers claim they’d drive past multiple barbershops for a cut here.

“ Alex always gives me a great haircut. My wife loves it when I go there. I think that’s what matters most ”
“ Great barbershop! Make sure you ask for Alex. Highly skilled. ”
“ First time getting a hair cut here, and definitely coming back again. Very happy with the result, excellent job! Classic straight razor finish! Now, that is old school barber shop style, love it! Excellent pricing, however they are cash only, so come prepared. ”
“ The best! My son's hair is always on point! We personally love Frank and Steve, but I hear from family and friends that all the staff are great. Fyi: There are two locations; the Niles location has a parking lot in the rear; no longer cash only, now able to take cc or apps. ”
“ Update Fall '23: Havn't been back in a while since I live and work much farther away, but little has changed when it comes to the friendliness of the staff and the quality of the cut. Had my hair cut by Alex, who did a phenomenal job. Wife is very, very pleased. Managed to cut it in a way that hides some of the thinning up top that looks absolutely natural and great. Price is up a little to 25, which is still crazy low given the inflation of the last few years. 5 stars still in my book. Original Review: Wonderful haircuts, great nautical decor. A real, authentic neighborhood barbershop. Owner is a great guy, super nice and polite. Some of the barbers don't speak a ton of english, but they unerstand it just fine. I think they speak polish, so you can talk to them in polish instead if you prefer. Also, to mention-- great value. Price is very reasonable for the quality of the haircut. And, the place doesn't reek of cigarette smoke either! Parking is in the back, ad though its tight quarters, I havn't ever had trouble getting a spot somewhere. I drive past 4 barbershops to get there, because it is just about the best haircut you'll get in the area, especially for less that 20 bucks! ”
“ Ok, so I know we don't talk about Bruno, but let me tell you about the adventure! The taking of my hairginity was by Steve who was gregarious, studied, and a good ear! He provided the type of experience that you can only get at real barber shops! Great banter and the atmosphere is incredible as there are all kinds of art and pictures of amazing sailing ships! And being a true Bear fan, Steve gave me a great meme for my Green Bay family with the new Pope decked out in Bears attire with a score underneath saying Chicago Popes - 01 Green Bay Popes - 00 Steve and his crew have lots of experience with all hair types from kids to adults and men and women. Great local Barbary, Staff, and filled with charm! Make sure to call ahead, although they will attend to walk-ins as well! ”
“ Best barber shop in the United States, probably the world. I'm from New Jersey, yet I consider this place as my barber shop. Steve is a master craftsman, and the rest of the staff is great as well. Next time I'm in Chicago, this place is a mandatory stop. ”
“ Great place. Appointment only, but were ready for me 15 minutes earlier. Good job on beard trim and straight razor shave. Will definitely come back for a haircut ”
