# Groom Barbershop: Agent-Direct Score C (60%) Site: http://www.groomphilly.com Report: https://directindex.org/r/groomphilly.com Scanned: 2026-10-24 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.) Groom Barbershop is partly visible to agents. An AI assistant can open Groom Barbershop's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. To book or order, it is sent to Booksy, a marketplace. ## Direct links - Phone: +12155452626 - Address: 1324 Locust St, 19107, Philadelphia ## Nearby, also direct Places near Groom Barbershop that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between. - Symphony Nails (140 m): https://directindex.org/r/symphony-nails.com - Cut Hair Salon (140 m): https://directindex.org/r/cuthairsalon.com - Artur Kirsh Salon (160 m): https://directindex.org/r/arturkirshsalon.com - City Hydration (180 m): https://directindex.org/r/cityhydration.com - Best Mens Haircut In Philadelphia (200 m): https://directindex.org/r/andrerichardsalon.com ## What to fix first - **Appointments only through booksy.** (+12 points) Every transaction an agent makes goes through the marketplace, which takes its commission.
