About East River Tattoo
East River Tattoo offers a comfortable and homey studio space, where clients can feel at ease. The artists, including Maggie and Aaron, are kind, considerate, and approachable, taking the time to understand clients' desires and provide excellent service. Aaron is particularly skilled at making clients feel comfortable, explaining the process clearly, and delivering high-quality results. Hayley and Aaron are also willing to work with clients, even if they decide to change their minds, showing empathy and support. The studio is very inviting, with a friendly crew that creates a relaxed atmosphere, almost like hanging out in a living room. They often have touring artists, and the shop is known for good flash from artists with various styles. Walk-ins are welcome depending on the artist, and the studio is located in Greenpoint, making it easy to visit. Customers have praised the team for their welcoming attitude, the excellent work, and the ability to accommodate walk-ins and last-minute appointments. The studio is cash-only, but there's an ATM nearby. Overall, East River Tattoo is a great spot for those looking for a friendly environment and quality tattoos.
Absolutely amazing experience at this tattoo studio. I went in as a walk-in appointment and they were super nice and accommodating. Very pleasant and personable consultation. Shout out to Adam Olsen for being the best tattoo artist!
I’ve gotten 4 tattoos from Aaron here and gone to a pop up event they’ve done at a local venue. It’s a super inviting crew and it feels like everyone is hanging out in a living room together (a tastefully antiqued one fully equipped for tattoos). Shop almost always has a touring artist too! They take walk-ins (depending on artist) and there’s plenty of good flash from artists with various styles. Do note- Cash only but there is an atm in the bodega right next door!
My wife, my brother and myself got the same tattoo from two of the artists at East River Tattoo and we all love it. They have a sick space there in Greenpoint, and made us feel really welcome especially since we called ahead only a couple of hours beforehand. Great people and and excellent work -- we'll be back!
