"A Decade of Dapper Delight at Dover Chop Shop I have been a dedicated patron of Dover Chop Shop for a whopping eight years, and let me tell you, the journey of driving over 50 miles every other week is an absolute pleasure. This barbershop has become more than just a place to get a haircut – it's a destination, a community, and an experience unlike any other. Are there other barber shops in Mentor? Sure there are! Did I try them? Once upon a time, yes. But there is a reason I drive to North Olmsted every other Saturday. And it is not just to get some Dunkin Donuts and have some real ME time. It’s because there only thing closer to Valhalla then getting a Haircut from Dover Chop Shop is a dead Viking from long ago. First and foremost, let's talk about Barry – the unsung hero of the grooming game. In my eight years of frequenting Dover Chop Shop, Barry has consistently demonstrated his expertise and finesse when it comes to sculpting the perfect haircut. He cuts my hair, my son’s hair, and my nephews too. If my cats were better behaved I would have him cut their hair too. There is literally NO HAIR I wouldn’t trust Barry to be the maestro of. The only thing better than his mastery of the clippers is his skill with the drumsticks! His attention to detail is unparalleled, and his ability to understand exactly what you're looking for is nothing short of magical. At this point, I do not get a haircut, Barry decides what my hair will look like, and he wills it into existence. I am just a vessel for his skill. Then there's Homer – the friendly face that greets you with a smile and ensures that your experience is not just about getting a haircut but also about enjoying every moment. Homer's amiable demeanor adds an extra layer of warmth to the already inviting atmosphere of the barbershop. It's not just a haircut; it's a conversation, a connection, and an opportunity to relax in the hands of skilled professionals. Homer is SO nice, it frankly is suspicious. I have found nothing to contradict his appearance as the nicest guy ever, but I still have my eyes on him. I do know this, Hasan will definitely be there. At some point. Eventually. So if you want a guy who is definitely there, Hasan is your guy. Ah, the fourth guy – there is definitely a fourth guy, Jeff maybe? Dover Chop Shop is not a typical Instagram Barbershop, and I couldn't agree more. The focus here is on delivering top-notch haircuts without subjecting you to the goop-covered, face-ripping experiences that seem to be a trend elsewhere. It's a relief to know that at Dover Chop Shop, the emphasis is on skill, precision, and customer satisfaction. Not views, likes or subscribers. If I wanted to have my face ripped off, I would have stayed with my first wife. No one needs that. What sets Dover Chop Shop apart from the rest is its commitment to being a friendly neighborhood barbershop. It's not about being an Instagram-fueled trendsetter; it's about creating an environment where you feel at home. The camaraderie among the barbers and the clients makes each visit a memorable experience. In a world where finding the perfect haircut can be a quest of epic proportions, Dover Chop Shop stands out as a beacon of excellence. The barbers here don't just give haircuts; they craft masterpieces that leave you looking and feeling your absolute best. It's more than a service; it's a transformative experience that keeps you coming back for more. Guys with literally no hair come in for haircuts! How can you possibly beat that. In conclusion, Dover Chop Shop is not just a barbershop; it's a haven for those who appreciate the art of grooming and the joy of connecting with skilled professionals. Barry's mastery, Homer's warmth, Hassan's charm, and the mysterious fourth guy's (still maybe Jeff?) contributions together create an atmosphere that goes beyond a simple haircut. So here's to Dover Chop Shop – the place that has turned a routine grooming task into a cherished experience. Eight years and counting, and I wouldn't have it any other way."

"Best Barbershop around!! I highly recommend this place. Very laid back and professional as well. All the barbers are top notch. Oh and Barry's ok too."

"Great laid-back feel with highly skilled barbers. You can't go wrong with any of the guys here. Joe has done a great job on my hair for over 2 years. I won't go anywhere else. I've seen them do great work on everyone from kids to older guys and people with all hair types. Reasonable priced but cash only and appointment only, so be prepared."
