Knights of London Barbershop
Green leather chairs, a tufted bench, a motorcycle parked by the window — and a state-registered senior barber on Northolt Road.

Yes, that's a motorcycle
Plenty of barbershops have a theme; Knights has a motorbike. The matte-black machine parked between the green leather chairs and the waiting bench tells you the tone: part barbershop, part clubhouse. Behind the chairs is Chris — Christopher Hickey, a State Registered Senior Barber whose Hair Council certificate hangs on the wall — and the owner answers reviews personally.
The numbers back the welcome up: "friendly staff" is mentioned in 122 of the 444 reviews. Add hot towel shaves, an 8am start every working day, and no-waiting-time mentions, and it's South Harrow's worst-kept secret.

An enormous count for a shop this size — the welcome is the headline act.
Beard trims

Hot towel shaves
The traditional hot towel shave gets its own mentions — ask Chris.
