The Blockhouse Franklin

I’m a regular with Micah, and he’s by far my favorite barber in the Franklin area. He’s a super friendly guy, and I always leave satisfied with my cut! I have super curly hair, so it’s definitely not the easiest to cut, but he handles it like a pro. If you want a quality haircut and a good conversation, Micah is your guy!

Skyler is top notch! Everytime my son comes in to get his haircut with him, his attention to detail and overall product always blows us away. Best haircut by far.

Franklin, TN. My grandson started high school and needed a better cut for his thick blond hair and his mom, Betsy, found him this place. It has a bar! When his dad brought him here he approved and now they both get cuts from Micah. Their hair looks great.

We are visiting from Wyoming and was in need of a haircut and beard trim. Booked an appointment with Josiah and he did an amazing job! I would highly recommend this place for anyone needing a trim! Awesome environment, friendly staff and great at what they do! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Nice place. Essentially just a barbershop and a bar. You can grab a drink (it’s a full bar with food) while you wait on your barber to finish with their other customers. Be advised on your first visit it’s a little unwieldy of an arrival as there’s no clear direction on where to go to check in (hint: the bar). My barber (Micah) did a good job on my son’s hair and my hair and beard. And the prices are on par with any of the multitude of trendy barbershops around these days.

Decided to grow a beard! Started looking ragged and heard about The Blockhouse. Excellent experience. Nick Doores was very particular about my beard and made sure I was comfortable with how he was going to groom my beard. Loved the hot towel and straight razor shave. Made another appointment to come back. Guess I’ll keep me beard a bit longer.

Really great spot. Gives a classic Barber feel with a high level of professionalism. Walked in but was able to be seen, although I would recommend an appointment and set one for next time. Plus that there is a bar in there as well And thought that was a really cool concept. All in all friendly staff, great atmosphere, and reasonably priced. Highly recommend.

My brother went to Andy. He asked for his hair trimmed on the top and faded on the sides. Andy took a 0 razor and went down his head when my brother said it was too short Andy said “trust the process” well trusting the process left my brother with aloe and hair all over his head along with a burn. So Andy? Is this worth trusting the process? Never go here again and I advise everyone let everyone you know this place needs to shut down. As a response to the owners comment: I would like you to keep in mind that the owner of this barber shop basically just said that “stuff happens” when it comes to shaving all of a boys hair off without consent. Im confused with what kind of establishment thinks this is an okay response to this traumatic experience?????

Interesting atmosphere full wet bar on time excellent cut first I'd had in 5 years offered to save my pony tail good service friendly people

Best barber shop in Franklin! Ask for Adam or any of the guys and you'll be happy you did. My teen son got a bad haircut at another high-end shop in Franklin, but Adam fit us in the very next day and gave my son the best haircut he's ever had. He's walking with his head held high now! The vibe is great and all the barbers are great. Every customer I saw while I was there came out looking great! I could tell everyone was very happy. It's in The Factory, back by Liberty Hall. Everyone is so friendly and kind.

This has been my go to for the last few years. I have a standing appointment every 4 weeks with Nick. All the barbers seem to do a great job and they have very little turnover which is great for repeat customers. The bar is well stocked and there are always two rotating taps of great regional beers. Come early or stay a bit after for a libation and good conversation.

I just moved back to Nashville after being gone almost 20 years. A family friend recommended nick to cut my hair. Walked in checked in and got free beer for first time visit. Nick did an amazing job maybe better than the barber I've used last 16 years. Already booked for the next two hair cuts. Great place great people and great environment!

Place is great in every way possible. Bar with a great selection of drinks and snacks, and barbers that know what they are doing. Andy cuts my hair, hands down best cut I can find anywhere around. Would highly reccomend. I've had 3-4 different people cut my hair and they are all great. You tell them what you want, they deliver, every time. Communication is key. Couldn't be happier with The Blockhouse. Wouldn't go anywhere else.

I would not recommend getting your haircut here. My son went to get his haircut by Andy and his hair was butchered. We provided a picture for reference and the final product was nowhere near what was expected. Please stay far away from this place. You'd have better results cutting your hair yourself.

The Blockhouse is simply... awesome. a. It's in the Factory. The history and cool vibes run deep here. New ownership is pouring buckets of money into making it even better. b. The Blockhouse bar is legit. Pick your poison. They probably have it. Skyler pours heavy. You'll get your money's worth. c. The barbers here are great. They're friendly. They collaborate. They know what they are doing. David and his co-workers all jumped in to make sure I got a great cut that I could walk out happy with. It was fun talking with them and my time in the chair was as enjoyable as it was practical. You can go to the place in the strip mall and get your hair cut. It'll be cheaper. It might even be as good (heck, three of the guys in there this afternoon are mostly bald and just get their biweekly trim to a no-guard stubble - there's no big secret to a full trim)... But at that other place you won't leave feeling refreshed, cared for, calmer, and happier. Of course, you also won't need a designated driver. I love it. And let's just say, it's a priority now.

Called to make an appointment Monday morning and nobody even had the courtesy to call me back; it's now been 48 hours. I refuse to give anyone business that operates this way. I hope their busy because I would never recommend them and am glad I went to another establishment.

Nick Doors has been my guy for over 3 years. He is great and his team is wonderful. I highly recommend The Blockhouse.

This place is terrific! Very laidback vibe, professional staff and a great cut to boot. Highly recommend. Tell them I sent you!

I got my first beard trim this morning, Matt did a great job I set my next appointment it's him before I left.I highly recommend them, also unique atmosphere

The vibes are immaculate. Great staff, bar makes for a really fun environment. This is my go-to place for sure!

Felt very welcome and the staff was great! Came in to get a haircut for my 4 year old son after a string of horrible cuts at different chains.

Matt T did an awesome job. I had buzzed my own hair a few months ago and had some regrets about my decision. Needed someone to fix it up. I just told Matt I wanted to give the top time to grow out and the sides to be short. But I told him to do what he thought was best. He did a great job fading/blending. Prices were also fair. Would definitely recommend.

Best haircut and haircut experience in the Nashville area in my opinion. I go to Matty, and he gives the best haircut I have personally ever had. Highly recommend him and all of the Blockhouse Team.

Taking two factors into consideration..the cut and the service. The cut 2 stars....the service 5. Average rating: 3. Dry cuts are always a hit or miss with me anyway. I know it's the new trend and can often work on most hair types. On mine, not so much. I have course, thinning hair and goes in every direction possible. When you sit in the chair with styled hair it's pretty simple to follow a template as all the hairs are being held by product and manipulation from earlier that day. But what happens when you go home and shampoo your hair? All those hairs that were nicely pasted down and styled flat soon take surface. I like to assess a good haircut based on the amount of time it takes you to style a "fresh cut" on the second day. If you are continually trying to work it into a style and it doesn't fall quickly into your normal groom routine the cut might have missed the mark. This was my experience. Stray pieces needing to be trimmed and more product to control the frizz isn't fun. The service on the other hand was pretty cool. A beverage while you wait and a very casual setting. I love the concept of this place but wasn't a fan of the end result. Was hoping to love this place but I feel it missed the mark.
