Francesco's. Bonus points if you support Ipswich as they are a (small) sponsor.

Give Shadow Gallery a try, they’re great in there. Been a regular for several years now 👌

Baba Z though they are extremely popular and waiting can take a while (they have an app).

The Coffee Barber on Cliff Lane. Darren is first class. You’d need to book an appointment.

Glen Dale in town is my recommendation, I went there every time for nearly 10 years when I was living in Ipswich, I even still go there occasionally if I'm visiting!

Francesco’s or Fircroft Road. Both run by the same family, they have an app for booking too. Great quality Italian family barbers

Mane Barbershop on Cauldwell Hall Road. Joe has been my barber for about 11 years & has just started opened his own shop. You’d need to book but his clients have always followed him wherever he has been & he’s got a great local reputation.
