About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, as a regular was waiting for his turn, he heard an unfamiliar voice behind him: ‘Hey, you look like you could use a trim.’ Startled, he turned around—and there stood Capone himself, holding a comb and smiling. The regular smiled back sheepishly. ‘Actually, I was just thinking of asking someone,’ he replied. Capone nodded approvingly, adjusted his glasses, and said, “Good choice—you’ll look sharp.” Then, turning to another customer, he added with a twinkle in his eye, “Next!” The whole place burst into laughter.
2. One day, while a regular was getting his usual trim, he noticed something peculiar—an oddly familiar scent of freshly baked cookies wafted through the shop. Curious, he asked the barber where it came from. Turns out, the owner’s wife had just started baking cookies for their neighbors and occasionally brought some in as a surprise treat. The regulars now eagerly awaited each new batch, making Capones Barbershop not only a place for haircuts but also for shared smiles and laughter.
3. A neighborhood kid was practicing his skateboarding tricks outside Capone’s one afternoon when he accidentally knocked over a vintage sign. As he scrambled to pick up the pieces, he discovered that it read ‘World Famous Haircuts Since 1923.’ An older gentleman walked in, saw the sign and exclaimed, 'I had my first cut here!' A delivery driver chimed in, 'And I got my last haircut here too!' The kid grinned sheepishly, realizing maybe Capone's wasn't just any old barbershop.
4. At dawn, a delivery driver pulled up to Capone's Barbershop and noticed something odd—a faint whiff of freshly baked cookies wafting from inside. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an old man with a huge smile, carefully placing warm cookies on a shelf. Turns out, it was just Capone’s secret recipe—cookies for his loyal customers. The delivery driver left with a free cookie and a story to tell back home.
