I'd see them every day, men who rightly want more than a quick trim with a set of clippers, but look awkward and uncomfortable walking into a hairdressing salon designed for women. I've never understood why it has to be like this, and decided that a place I'd like to hang out at every day would be somewhere where men will feel more at home too.
My shop is designed to be a sanctuary that men walk into and instantly feel they belong. A stylish, but down-to-earth and comfortable environment where we can kick back and be ourselves, whether that's listening to good music, bantering about the football, firing up the Xbox or just having a bit of quiet time.

I fully recommend Patrick and his team, who are as nice and professional as they come.
Being someone with naturally thicker hair, I had a hard time finding a barber in Newcastle that could give me a proper trim.
That all changed when a friend recommended Patrick, and I have not looked back since!
He has always delivered with the best and most consistent haircut. The vibes and the friendly staff definitely make it a whole experience as well, rather than just getting a haircut.
10/10 would recommend!

17 years Paddy has been cutting my hair. Don’t think I need to say anymore (other than I’m not blind and I think it looks good). Love the atmosphere in the shop, when I worked nearby I’d go and sit in it during my break. The staff are awesome (Inserts joke about Erin being nuts but she’s class!). If you’ve not been to Paddy’s give it a go. Best place in Newcastle for a trim.

This was my first time using a barber in Newcastle and I chose Patrick Forster based on their good reviews and how good their communication was on social media. The shop is nice and has a good atmosphere. Staff are welcoming and friendly and make you feel comfortable when you arrive and throughout and as I said very good comms on social media. Unfortunately didn't get the best trim and have been getting terrorised on the zooms and FaceTimes. I was happy to pay the £25 going in (even though I thought it was a bit pricey) due to their very good reviews online but I was disappointed by the end result

Positive: Cleanliness, Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Value
From the moment you walk in you’re made to feel welcome, cups of coffee or beers is readily offered and there is a relaxed but professional vibe to the place. The staff are great and the haircuts are fantastic, never had any issue and always felt like they all care about what they are doing. Have recommended them to many friends.

Took me over 33 years to find a barber shop I liked. Have been going to Paddy’s for 6-7 years now.
Always warm and welcoming (from everyone), always does a good job and can tell everyone knows their clientele.
Big fan of the massage chair, Jess makes a good coffee. All it needs is Paddy to support a proper football team and they’d be set! 😉
Can’t wait to see you all after lockdown.
Consistently great. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ And good banter also 😎

Have been using this barbers for years now and love the family feel of it. The staff are all really nice and you can see they get on so well and also think of their customers as part of the family also. As someone who was very anxious and nervous of having my hair cut the team were really friendly and professional and now I can have my hair cut with no anxiety at all.
