Stylish, upbeat barbershop with a welcoming atmosphere, capable staff, and a polished club-style feel. A dependable place for a quality cut, good conversation, and a comfortable experience from start to finish. For a fuller picture — Tommy Gun’s original barbershop in Edmonton’s Brewery District delivers a barbershop experience that feels both energetic and easygoing. Located near Loblaws City Market in one of the city’s more modern retail hubs, it combines a contemporary men’s grooming concept with the familiar comfort of a neighbourhood shop. The team made a strong impression for being personable, steady, and clearly experienced. There is a confidence to the service that helps you relax quickly — they listen well, follow instructions carefully, and take pride in getting the details right. That kind of consistency matters, especially when you want a cut that looks clean without unnecessary flourishes or guesswork. The result felt professional, trustworthy, and easy to come back to. The shop itself has that signature Tommy Gun’s style: clean finishes, a lively atmosphere, and a slightly elevated barbershop feel that makes the visit more enjoyable than a basic haircut errand. It manages to feel modern and fun without becoming overwhelming, so whether you are there to unwind quietly or enjoy a bit of conversation, the space works well. Waiting areas are comfortable, the environment feels well kept, and the overall tone is welcoming. It is the kind of place that suits regular maintenance cuts just as well as a more intentional grooming appointment. A strong choice in Oliver / Brewery District for anyone looking for a skilled, reliable barber experience in a setting that feels current, social, and well run. Parking / access Parking in the Brewery District can occasionally take a moment to sort out, but the area offers convenient options including nearby free surface parking and paid heated underground indoor parking, which is especially appreciated during Edmonton winters. Kid-friendly / family-friendly Well suited for teens, dads, families bringing older children in for a haircut, and anyone looking for a comfortable, approachable grooming experience. The atmosphere is lively but welcoming, and the staff presence helps the space feel relaxed rather than intimidating. Best for children who are reasonably comfortable in a busier barbershop setting. Wheelchair accessibility The Brewery District complex offers step-free access, and the general retail area is easier to navigate than many older storefronts. Interior movement may feel somewhat tighter during busier times depending on seating and client flow, so quieter periods may offer the most comfortable experience.

Got a haircut here today and really enjoyed my experience, they were able to get me in super quickly too. Abigail was my stylist today and she did an incredible job. Couldn't have asked for a better haircut. It was the best haircut I've ever had. She was very kind and professional and we had a great conversation. Will definitely be returning! Thank you Abigail and Tommy Guns!

We were in the area so I took my teenage son here for a haircut. I am so glad I did. He had the best experience! We were a walk in but he was able to get in right away. Shane listened to what my son wanted and did an amazing job. My son was beaming when he came out of there, and kept saying it was the best haircut he has ever had! Thank you so much Shane, we will definitely be back!!

Cheated on my hairdresser today—oops, I try not to but sometimes it’s a must. I was feeling dirty so I popped into Tommy Gun’s at Unity Square and saw Mia- my stylist. She was great—she really listened and offered suggestions. I asked for just a little off the back and sides, and she delivered with skill; “tapering”, ensuring “proportion” and finishing with a needed “blending”. She also did my eyebrows and cleaned up some sloppy shaving I had done earlier that morning! We had a good laugh about the hair terminology (to which we each contributed) and I was on my way. Very professional, provided everything I asked for, and now I’m feeling happy, happy, happy . . . clean for the weekend. 😀
