Adel Barbershop Moves to the Courthouse Square

Town And Country Barbershop - Adel Iowa

The Town & Country Barbershop has moved to west side of Courthouse Square to the front of the Adel American Legion Hall.

The move is a Win-Win for all involved.

Located for years at the corner of Main and 9th St., the current building is for sale and owner, Jenny Orr Phipps, wanted to keep the barbershop downtown.

And she needed a spot that would welcome her  four legged associate Lars, who is as much a part of the shop as Jenny and fellow barber, Leonard Warford.

The American Legion Hall, post 464, at 119 N. 9th St. had a front office location that had been vacant for a couple of years. They also wanted to keep the barber shop downtown and they welcomed Lars as one of the family.

So, an agreement was struck and the Legion members themselves worked for months to remodel the empty office.

From gutting the office and rebuilding it to mounting the iconic barber shop pole on the outside of the building.

The old shop closed Saturday afternoon on March 28th and crews worked Sunday and Monday to transfer the equipment to the new larger location.

Their first official day in the new location is Tuesday, March 31st. The shop will host an official Open house in June.

Jenny would like to thank the the great folks at post 464 and welcome everyone to the new location, “It’s the same great team in a new location with a great view of the courthouse and downtown Adel.”
