Eddy’s barber shop — Attraction in Burlingame

Old School Perfection with a Modern Touch – Moe is the Real Deal

If you’re looking for the perfect blend of old-school charm, top-tier skill, and welcoming community, look no further than Moe at Eddie’s Barbershop in Burlingame. Moe is a master of the craft—a true artisan when it comes to the classic straight razor shave. Every detail, from the hot towel to the soothing aftershave, is done with precision, care, and a kind of finesse you just don’t find anymore.

What truly sets Moe apart, though, is his incredible ability to work with sensitive skin. I deal with skin irritation regularly, and Moe not only takes it seriously—he tailors the whole experience to ensure it’s comfortable and irritation-free. His technique is gentle yet effective, and he’s always thoughtful about products and temperature. I leave with baby-smooth skin, zero redness, and a smile on my face.

The shop itself is immaculate—clean, organized, and thoughtfully maintained. The vibe is upbeat and friendly, with classic barbershop banter and an atmosphere that makes you feel like part of the crew from day one. The other clientele are just as great—friendly, grounded folks who seem to really value the old-school experience as much as I do.

And in a region where quality and affordability rarely go hand in hand, Eddie’s Barbershop is a rare gem. The prices are extremely reasonable for the Bay Area, especially considering the level of service, the ambiance, and the sheer professionalism of Moe and the team.

I’m genuinely grateful to be a part of this community. Moe doesn’t just give you a shave—he gives you a throwback experience, a moment to unwind, and a reminder that great craftsmanship and great people still exist. Five stars,...

I didn't get a cut here but wanted to put in a solid review for the friendly exchange I had. So, I'm traveling from San Diego and airport security pulled out the unused blade I was carrying for the straight razor. It was my bad to carry it, but I've gone through several security checks. Anyways, now I didn't want to buy a full box just for a weekend and have to throw the rest away. So after having lunch, I found this place and walked in and asked for some blades. He just handed me a bunch, didn't take any money even though I insisted. This is good customer service. Also the shop was very clean and the barber was extremely well dressed. I would definitely come here to get a cut next time...

Besides the consistently excellent haircuts and shaves I've been getting from Eddy the last few years, I need to take a moment to shout out the absolutely legendary service I witnessed from Ali with a little boy named Isaiah, who was terrified of haircuts when his mom brought him in today, and had a new best friend in his barber by the time he walked out. (Isaiah walked out with a few lollipops too, because sometimes a little bribery also goes a long way.) Ali's kindness and patience toward this young man were truly memorable, and made my typically fantastic experience here even...
