The Best Ottawa Tattoo Shops

  • July 12, 2023
  • Bryan

Ottawa, the capital city of Canada, is a city that hums with a unique blend of culture, history, and modern sophistication. Known for its stunning architecture, world-class museums, and diverse culinary scene, Ottawa offers a charming blend of English and French Canadian cultures that coexist harmoniously. Landmarks like Parliament Hill and the Rideau Canal — a UNESCO World Heritage site — are testaments to Ottawa’s rich historical heritage and its love for the great outdoors.

However, the spirit of Ottawa is also vividly displayed in its celebration of personal expression and creativity. This is mirrored everywhere, from its dynamic music festivals to its vibrant arts scene, which features a mix of renowned galleries and innovative public art installations.

Ottawa’s thriving tattoo culture echoes this ethos. Scattered throughout the city, from ByWard Market to Hintonburg, Ottawa’s premier tattoo studios offer an avenue for individuals to articulate their unique narratives through the art of tattooing. By harmonizing time-honored methods with contemporary creativity, Ottawa’s tattoo scene is as diverse and intriguing as the city itself, reflecting a captivating fusion of tradition and innovation.

Our favorite tattoo studios

There are a lot of studios out there, some better than others. We created this list by searching the internet for the highest-rated tattoo shops based on their Google ratings, which should give you an honest representation of some of the best.

    I went to Chris to get my first tattoo. He did such an amazing job on the tattoo, I’m thrilled with it, but he also made sure I had a great experience while I was there. He had no problem with me tweaking my design and seeing different options. When it came to the tattoo, he explained everything he was doing and how the body reacts to tattooing to help me be more comfortable. At one point, I started crying from the pain, and Chris stopped immediately, got me something sweet to drink, and sat with me until I was ready to continue. Great customer service along with great tattoos.

    I got my first tattoo done by Ashley and it was the best experience I could have asked for. The tattoo itself is phenomenal and everyone was so welcoming. I’ve since had a few more peices done by Ashley and just got a flash peice done by Mahria and everytime I’ve been wowed by the quality of work and the atmosphere of the shop. I can’t say enough good things about these guys, but have to give extra props to Ashley for exceeding my expectations on a pet portrait I’d been dreaming of for years. Whether you’re looking to get your first tattoo, or looking to try out a new artist I highly recommend 3 Round Tattoos.

    If I have to choose to sit for hours on end while getting stabbed relentlessly by a needle it would definitely be in the company of every single person who works at virtue tattoo. Not only is my artist Alyssa insanely talented (I have both a sleeve and a work in progress leg sleeve by her), everyone else who works at virtue tattoo makes the experience super comfortable and enjoyable. I would recommend them to anyone who asks! Super clean, friendly, comfortable. Check them out for sure 🙂

    They got me booked in very quickly with Nam 💜 He even moved his schedule around for me.

    Tattoo was exactly what I asked for and the line work is amazing. Nam is the sweetest guy and a great artist. He really took the time to make it perfect. This piece is the centre stone for more to come and means a lot to me.

    I would definitely recommend!!! I’ll 100% be back for more with Nam 😉

    The studio was super clean, the people were very polite and the energy was chill and comfortable. I got a tattoo from Anna the apprentice and even though she’s new she was fantastic she made me feel super calm and relaxed and her tattoos were amazing. I would definitely recommend not only the shop but also her as well, and I will be going back that’s for sure ! Very happy customer !

    Kyle is a phenomenal piercer! His attention to detail is remarkable and he explained every step so thoroughly. It is evident that Kyle loves his job and is very experienced. He was diligent in maintaining a sterile field and sanitizing the space, which really made me feel at ease. Overall, I had an amazing first experience at Babalon and will definitely be back soon!

    Niloo is great! Her studio was extremely clean and she was committed to making sure my first tattoo was absolutely perfect. She had so much patience and didn’t mind tweaking the design every time I had a new idea. She also explained everything she was doing & did everything to make me feel comfortable!
    The best first tattoo experience I could have had. Definitely going back there soon!! Support this lovely lady 🤘

    I had an amazing experience with my tattoo artist, Nilo, and I can’t recommend her enough! She was so friendly and professional, and made me feel completely at ease during the session. She clearly has a lot of experience and talent, and her personality really added to the overall positive experience.

    I was really impressed with how patient [name] was with me as we worked together to find the perfect design. She listened carefully to what I wanted and offered her own suggestions to create a truly unique and beautiful piece. I was blown away by the end result – it was even better than the picture!

    If you’re thinking about getting a tattoo, I highly recommend Nilo, She’s an excellent artist and a pleasure to work with. You won’t be disappointed!
