Someplace in the city for a men's shave?

Do you ladies happen to know any places in the city (preferably in the Old City area) where a man can get a shave? Or someone who would come to the hotel?

I thought it would be a nice idea for FI, his dad & brothers to do on the morning of the wedding. I want him to be able to try it out first, which is why I am asking so far in advance.

    I'm not sure where the second location is, but Shaving Grace in exton is supposed to be amazing. Seriously. I got FI a gift certificate there on Groupon and he hasn't used it yet, but P&S always rave about them. It wouldn't be that long of a drive for the guys to take the day of the wedding from Old City either...

    Groom is a mens shaving place, but it's closer to Rittenhouse.

    Thanks Lauren! That looks right up FI's alley but they are not open Saturday. Odd, you would think a lot of guys would want to get groomed on Saturdays. And he def. has to do it Sat. but he needs to shave like every 12 hours.

    Paprika - I might get him a gift certif there for his b-day next week, but I don't think they will want to head out to Exton day of.

    Maybe you could give Groom a call anyway and see if he'd open specially or come to your hotel?

    Also, I just thought of the Art of Shaving store - they have a man spa there and do shaves.  That's on Walnut around 15th or 16th.

    I second the Art of Shaving. My bro-in law and my FI both had/are getting shaved there before the wedding.

    Don't know if I'd recommend being shaved with a straight razor the day of, it's a pretty close shave so their skin may react negatively and show bumps/burn.
