Our story · since 1937
A historic landmark of downtown Nashua
Located in Nashua’s downtown district, Wilfred’s Barbershop has been providing traditional barbering since 1937.
Three owners, one shop
Wilfreds Barber Shop opened on West Pearl Street in 1937, by its original owner, Wilfred Peloquin. The shop later passed on to its second owner, who kept it for 52 years, and it is now in the hands of Marine veteran Dave Pothier.
Take a trip back in time with your first step in our shop. We focus on classic, old school barbering: Wilfred’s is the kind of shop your grandfather may have gone to in his youth.
A non politically correct, patriotic, American grooming establishment. One of the last places where a man can actually still be a man.
A warm collection of heroism
The interior holds countless treasures of police, fire and military memorabilia, proudly displayed on the walls. It is a place where great conversation takes place. The American and POW flags fly daily outside.
Stop in, have a cold refreshment out of the fridge and join the conversation of the shop. Appointments are preferred and walk-ins welcome if time allows, and all ages are welcome, from a small child’s first haircut all the way up to senior citizens.
The atmosphere of our shop adjusts to the customers who are visiting us. We can be rough around the edges and loosen up, but with the flip of a switch we are professional and courteous around women and small children.
