This was my second time getting tatted at Frith St Tattoo and once again my artist was phenomenal as well as all the artists in the building. Whenever I'm in London and I'm in search of a tattoo, Frith St Tattoo is definitely the place to go. read more

My husband and I walked in on a Friday afternoon for small tattoos. The place is kind of hidden downstairs and they were busy yet very organized. Super clean! After each client everything was broken down and cleaned. Loved our artist Dan he did great lettering and very clean lines. He also made sure every step of the way that I was happy with size and placement and open to changing anything happily. Would absolutely recommend this place. read more

15th tattoo for me. I've had work done all over the US and am a repeat client with my favorites. The folks at Frith Street were great: unassuming, friendly, flexible, and all about tattooing. I got a VERY reasonable quote (which they offered without my asking). The tattooers were super down-to-earth, scheduling was a breeze, and I had quality work drawn up quickly and applied neatly. Thanks, Jake, for the steady hand, easy-going chat, and professional work. Hope to see you again. Friends, for a shop that gets so many tourists, the experience and impression I got was that they treat clients with genuine personalized care and professionalism. I will go back as soon as I can!!! Thanks, Jake! Thanks, shop staff! You all are Hella Dope Fresh! Let me know when you come to Oakland!!!! read more

I've used 3 different tattooists and have finally found "Tattoo Home" at Frith Street. Stefano has now done a whole arm and he's great. He's experienced, he listens carefully to what you want, and he will tell you if something won't work (he didn't do a small cover-up for me because he warned me I'd hate it, but he did do another cover-up for me in a different area - he knows what he's doing). The atmosphere is friendly and the artists (there are several) are genial and knowledgeable without being overbearing - there are moments of silent concentration and occasional moments of conversation. Piccadilly Circus is a good underground station to get off at, then it's a short walk (9 minutes-ish) through Chinatown. They have a (very clean!) toilet, drinking water available, but no internet access as it's a basement studio, so bring design ideas on paper/saved on your phone. I wouldn't go anywhere else now - Stefano is genuine and won't tattoo you just to take your money; he has excellent judgement, he is proud of his work, and I absolutely love both the experience and the results. read more

I can't express how happy I'm with my first tattoo which was done by the very talented Emiliano. His use of color exactly captured my interpretation of the design and more. The purple draws the eyes across toward the birds and green and blue enhance the concept of earth, and everyone marvels at the thin, clean lines. Thank you Emiliano XXOO read more

Great place, Miles was awesome to work with. Looking forward to heading back to London and having him do another piece. Would highly recommend him to anyone. Plus he has great taste in music which is a big plus in my book. read more

Frith Street Tattoo - Miles kicking ass on this. Sadly it was done the day Brad from the Specials passed. - Tattoo Near Me - London, XGL

Great! Got a small tattoo done by Dan. I was a walk-in and it was quick and efficient. Would come again.

I have only the highest regards for Frith Street Tattoo. I was booked an appointment and consultation very easily. When I came in to see Stefano, he understood what I wanted and needed straight away. He never told me what I had to do(which many tattoo artists have), and consulted and mixed ideas with me the entire time. I needed a previous tattoo fixed with some new additions, so he was doing a lot for me. The price was exceptionally reasonable for all the work I was having done, and coming from NYC that's saying a lot. While he was doing my tattoo he was constantly asking me how I was doing, if I felt alright, what I thought about colors and touchups(things I didn't even ask for but he did anyway free of charge, in my eyes). Not only was his bed side manner impeccable, but his work was simply amazing. The only thing I regret is not coming to him sooner with more skin for him to use. I would recommend the shop and ESPECIALLY Stefano to anyone looking for amazing traditional style tattoos. read more

Frith Street Tattoo - Stefano touched up my poppy, added beautiful leaves, the shading between my banner and the yellow flowers! So incredibly happy! - Tattoo Near Me - London, XGL

Miles was/is excellent! Great artist. We had a lot in common but he mentioned the movie Foxcatcher, which I had a role in, well, couldn't of been better! We talked about the design I wanted, didn't hurry me or force me into something I didn't want. Looking for a tattoo....go see Miles and the crew at Frith Street Tattoo! read more

Absolutely wonderful shop! I am from the USA and made an appointment through my hotel. My brother and uncle and I came in for a consultation one day, then two days later for our sessions. Beautiful work and a very light hand. Clean shop and friendly people. I LOVE my ink! read more

Amazing. Pricey. But if you want good work, you gotta pay. I would come back here again if I weren't leaving so soon. I was able to walk in without an appointment near closing on a Tuesday, and ended up very happy! These guys rock. read more

Frith Street Tattoo - A very special tattoo. - Tattoo Near Me - London, XGL

I recently had my largest piece to date inked by Jordan Teear of Frith Street Tattoo. This is by far the most artistic piece I have ever had and the one I am most pleased with. My roughly 9 inch by 4 inch black and grey piece took around 1 hour and 45 minutes of work, prefaced with about half an hour of tracing my drawing and placing the stencil. The shading was done free hand and it absolutely blew my mind. Jordan Teear is the real deal. He deserves to be one of the most in-demand artists in the world. Just remember that good tattoos aren't cheap and cheap tattoos aren't good. However, it's going to be on your body forever, so why not get the best available? With this caliber of artist in resident at Frith Street, they will continue to be one of the top rated tattoo parlors globally. read more

I came here before I even knew of Yelp (and certainly before Yelp UK) and lucked out in finding this fantastic little shop tucked at the bottom of a ridiculously narrow stairway. Now thanks to Claudia, and my good luck, I have a permanent reminder of my visit to London. First things first, we were unable to get a walk-in appointment. Always a good sign. Luckily they were able to get us in while we were in town and give us plenty of time to get what we wanted done. My design (if you want to call it that was simple. I wanted stars, three in fact, on my upper arm that I could add to as I traveled as a map of sorts. I was a bit nervous since straight lines can elude a tattoo artist and I would be several thousand miles away once home so it would be difficult to have any touch up. Claudia calmed me down and helped me find the best placement for the stars so the stars were basically "falling" down my arm. After finding the best spots which meant moving stars a few times we got to work. Claudia made sure to take her time filling in the lines so that I wouldn't need to come back. At the time I felt she was a little rough but since this was a while ago and the stars still look great I am very thankful for her efforts. On my next visit to London I will surely be back to get more work done here and I can only hope that I will be lucky enough to get Claudia's help with that. Their site is http://www.frithstreettattoo.co.uk/# read more

Proudly giving my first Yelp review to this lovely studio. I have only one tattoo on my body, and since it was my first, I really wanted to be sure it is somewhere reliable with talented artist. Many of my friends and relatives recommended me Frith Street's studio calling it one of the best tattoo places in London. I got Stefano to draw on me and he really put me in the mood for it and calmed me down. I was expecting it to hurt more, actually and I can't say the tattooing process was disturbing. I'm very pleased with his work and the treatment I received. The only flaw about this is many people find the prices a bit too high, but this is one of those things you shouldn't complain about. The lifetime gift you get is something worth paying the price. read more

These guys are artists. They create works of art. Unique works of art, not tazmanian devils out of a flash book. Expect to have to wait a couple of weeks from making an enquiry to getting a consultation and potentially months after that for your first session. It's expensive because they are very, very good. I had a coverup piece done by Stuart (15 hours in all!!) which cost me over a grand. It was worth every penny because no-one would EVER know that I had some crappy towny tatts there before. If you want it forever, you want to pay for the best. read more

Tucked away in a Soho basement is Frith Street Tattoo. The studio at the forefront of London's tattoo scene with many a hardcore ink fanatic passing through this respected establishment. In my opinion there's only a handful of studios in London where the employees can be described as tattoo 'artists' as opposed to simply tattooists and this is one of them. They are an extremely talented bunch encompassing a range of styles and quality so high it may make you weep a little. To put the icing on a heavily tattooed cake numerous world renowned artists have been known to drop in as guest inkers, so you may just get some extra special art work. My only criticism of the shop is that the atmosphere can be a little frosty. The cream of the tattoo scene comes with a reverse snobbery so do not, at all costs, turn up an ink virgin and ask to get some stars drawn on your face or something. You'll most likely be met with death stares and an icy silence. read more

Frith Street Tattoo - Tattoo Near Me - London, XGL

I had been traveling around in London for a couple of days and wanted a small tattoo. This was one of the only shops open past 6 pm so I went for it. The shop is small and open and full of people who look qualified to give a decent tattoo. The process was easy. I pulled up a picture on my phone, airdropped it to their computer, told them the size and where I wanted it and they made it happen. I have a couple tattoos already so I knew what to look for in terms of cleanliness and service. I just accepted the 80 pound minimum since I was a tourist with last-minute decision-making skills. Seemed clean. They wore gloves, took needles from the packages, no worries there. Service was chill, but almost too chill. They talked more amongst themselves then they did to my friends and I. I am not even sure I caught my artist's name. Having a bigger piece already on my body, I know they get annoyed with small tattoos but I expected a little more conversation. Great little shop overall! read more

Staff that greeted me seemed a little irritated when we walked into the shop. She was smoking not even 5 minutes before opening. I had a printed copy of the tattoo I wanted and they gave me an hour wait time. I got tattooed for the first time by a guest artist Phil LaRocca. Tattoo is great and the artists were very respectful and went above and beyond as to put a screen around me as my tattoo was on my back and I had to take my shirt off. Many of the artists are super kind and friendly. All of them are great artists. Prices run a bit high, I got a tattoo around 3 inches and it cost me 160 pounds. Overall, cool shop in a cool location and if you can afford to spend the money do it. read more

Just got a tattoo here and they were super great! I didn't get my artist name but he was very friendly and did exactly what I asked for!

At the beginning of the month I walked in and was warmly greeted by the amazing and knowledgeable staff. I wanted to get some writing on my forearm and they helped me figure out the placement and what phrase to get tattooed. I was set up with an appointment for 4 days later with the extremely nice and talented Miles. On the day of getting the tattoo Miles walked me through the steps even though I knew what to expect and he began working. It only took about 20 minutes from start to finish and I am so happy with not only the tattoo but the overall experience. I am definitely coming back to get more work done. I highly recommend Miles and I am very happy I got to meet him read more

I have been reading good reviews about this place but some talked about high pretentiousness so thought I would have a look. I got a very good impression of professionalism at this place and I 've been in quite a few tattooists over the years. The girl on the desk was helpful and patient and the main thing is that the whole place is open plan so you can see the artists at work. No dark mysterious closed doors. The artists may well be pretentious (i dont know) but take it from me, you can overlook that for a real quality job. The prices are reasonably standard aswell. I'll give it 4 stars for a 1st impression but i havent had anything done yet. If their work is as good as some say, I'll give it 5 stars. read more

Even though I had to wait 9/10 months to get tattoo'd it was definitely worth the wait. I don't understand how anyone can find either the clients/artists pretentious in the slightest. They are custom tattoo artists and all their work is done to a very high standard. Valerie has done quite a lot of work for me in the past. She is highly skilled and her knowledge of tattoos and tattoo after care is very good. She and the other tattoo artists that work there are also quite friendly and they work to a fast pace. If you are someone that is looking for an individual tattoo of the highest quality then you should check this place out. I cannot recommend this place enough read more

Was able to book a consultation on the phone for the next day and after discussing my ideas with Oliver I was able to book an appointment for the following day. Had a sugar skull design above my ankle which was beyond what I'd hoped for with the detail and shading. I'd also asked him to add some rope to a very basic anchor tattoo I'd had done a few months back in order to give it more detail. I can't believe how he managed to transform this from a tattoo I was growing to dislike into one I can't stop looking at. I'd done a lot of research on artists before picking Oliver (see his Instagram for a whole portfolio of work beyond tattoos) and I couldn't be happier with what I have. Wouldn't think to go anywhere else for my next tattoo, no regrets! read more

This shop was personally recommended to me by a tattoo artist I greatly respect. It was easy to miss (basement shop) but I'm from California so I was probably tripping out on "hella crazy" Soho vibes. The woman who greeted me and helped me schedule an appointment was a sweetheart. I came back at the scheduled time and met Miles, my artist- coolest dude ever. Down to earth, friendly and a super sharp wit and had some great stories to tell. Most importantly did a solid traditional style banger on my arm, wasn't heavy handed, and worked FAST. It's healing great. He created a really relaxed friendly atmosphere, I would definitely recommend him to anyone who wants solid work done and wants to listen to some great music while getting their skin and nerves tortured. read more

Nearly walked right by this place! Good thing I looked down! I'm just visiting from California and wanting a tattoo whole I'm here..Thought I would pop in and see what they could do for me. Minimum charge 80 pounds....that's about the same as cali prices although ours go by the hour, which would make it cheaper. The lady I spoke to said that once looking at the picture she would be able to tell me how much...hmmmm...that leaves alot to up the price considerably. Basically touching ink to skin is 80 then they raise it from there. Think I will look around some more before making my final decision. read more

Came back to FST to get more work done by Stewart. Spent 5 hours in the shop. Great experience, there were many people getting some wonderful tattoos. The place has good energy and the owner Dante is first class. You can't find a better place to get a tattoo. read more

I really wanted to like Frith Street. I wasnt going there for my first tattoo it would have been my 12th but it was going to cover the whole left side of my torso so I wanted someone who came with great reviews to do it. Unfortuneately all I was greated with was people that didnt seem interested in doing the tattoo. Rather than ask if i have had any previous tattoo's they just assumed that i was mad becasue of the size of the design and assumed that i wouldnt be able to go through with it which was disapointing when i had travelled from east anglia just to speak to them face to face and hopefully make a future booking. i did get my tattoo done after more research at MK Ink and i am over the moon with the work. it took 8 hrs in total and they were fantastic. they talked through my ideas and changed things that they thought would look better and I am now going back for more. read more

This place is awesome and Jordan Baxter is not only worth a fine conversation but a very talented artist!

Get tattooed by Emiliano he rocks Traditional pure and simple. The way it should be.

This place is fantastic! I checked in for my appointment and they already had the stencil ready, they took the needle out of the sterilized packages and called me in. This was my first time getting a tattoo. Brad was understanding about that and was very reassuring that it would be no big deal. His line work is very precise and his shading gradients are really smooth. read more

My wife and I came to London on a holiday. Right before our trip, we contacted Frith to see if they had any availability while we were in town. They emailed me back promptly and when we stopped in to set up an appt, they were able to give us our tattoos right then and there. Miles was our tattoo artist and he was great! He did a fantastic job and a super nice guy to chat with. I highly recommend him! read more

Got tattooed a while ago from Xam. He is a great tattoo artist but the overall feel of the studio is a bit pretentious. Maybe that's more from the clientelle than the artists, who are very talented. Or maybe I went on a bad day, as I have heard nothing but good things from my friends who have been tattooed there. I especially like Valeries work, she is one to look out for read more

A bit pretentious?Maybe being one of the premier centres for European tattooing causes that!

Love this place packed to the top with amazing artist I did not know who to go for first. I love american Traditional so I of corse chose Emiliano Liberatori. He was friendly nice and funny and on top of that I LOVE my tattoo I will be going back in 6 weeks for more from him. The shop is full of amazing artist and nice people. Emiliano has been tattooing for 10 years and owned a shop in Roma dn learned in the states his Pinups and anything classic are really amazing. Thumbs up to Frith street Tattoo read more

This place was recommended to me by one of my friends. The artists there seem to be very professional. I liked the portfolio of Steward, there I saw a skull detailed tattoo that made me a great impression. Actually I'm going to make a new tattoo during next month. You can visit the website, because they have awesome examples of tattoos. read more

I'm quite disappointed.. As you can see by the website the tattoos are amazing. But after today's experience I'm a little disheartened. I wanted to get a memorial tattoo, I haven't had any tattoos before so this is a big thing for me... so I hop skip and jump down to sunny Soho for a quote and some inspiration. The place wasn't busy, but after 30mins of waiting, I finally get someone's attention, I explain what I want and where I want it, and he just ignores me... I ask how much it will cost, and when's the soonest he can fit me in, he ignores me... Then finally, he grunts and then gets his book out, tells me I can get it done tomorrow... Great! Book me in! Then something must have clicked as he then tells me I have to wait 2 weeks... for a tattoo that's going to take 30mins and will cost £80. I wouldn't mind waiting that long, but I don't feel comfortable giving my money to a miserable wretch and could only care about the money and couldn't give a s*hit... now I'm off to "Cult Classic".

GOOD TATTOOS, WAY TOO MUCH EGO This London outlet has a very high-level of tattoo artistry. I am very happy with my tattoos. However, I would not go back their again... why? 1: Kept rescheduling my time, had to sit and wait a very long time. 2: Unfriendly atmosphere: no eye contact, lots of negative body language, no, "Hellos" or "Goodbyes", refused to learn my name (even though I took the time to find out their names), made to feel small and like cattle. 3: Very standoffish about exploring your design, and discussing alternatives, and other possibilities. Over all a very negative customer experience. If this tattoo parlor was a in anthropomorphized a person, it would an insecure 14 year old schoolgirl who is subconsciously hell-bent on projecting her insecurities onto the face of her opponents - avoid the emotional-glacial transference and spend your money elsewhere!

I have a habit of getting a new tattoo every time I travel so I haven't ever been to the same artist or studio twice. But this could change that. I might decide not to get another tattoo UNLESS I'm in London and then I'm coming here and booking Oliver MacIntosh. Oliver does unique, clean, and detailed work. And when it came to my tattoo I didn't feel any judgment and he didn't shy away from the fact that I wanted a very small one on the inside of my finger. It was the smallest one I've gotten but also the most meaningful. I did some browsing around London before I found Frith Street Tattoo, some of the most highly rated on Yelp said it wasn't physically possible unless it was 4 times the size, others simply didn't want to tattoo a hand, and others, though willing, sounded nervous. The last thing you want is a nervous tattoo artist. The tattoo came out exactly as I wanted. Thanks Oliver! read more
