For Philadelphia, Blind Barber quietly opened in early 2020 as the pandemic spread across the world. Blind Barber was forced to close with the citywide shutdown of all restaurants, eateries, bars, and barbershops a few weeks into its soft opening. This meant no celebration and no grand opening for the company's most prominent location to date. During the pandemic, Blind Barber was the only business of its kind in this market to shut down and reopen with two sets of protocols, both for restaurants/food establishments and for barbershops and beauty salons.
Now, over 18 months later, Blind Barber is back entirely and ready to take things to the next level in an expanded yet safe and healthy manner. Blind Barber is currently following all city and state regulations. Blind Barber's barbershop requires a mask for every person who steps into the barbershop, and Blind Barber requires proof of complete vaccination for every patron for the speakeasy restaurant and back bar.
