Hands down the best place to get Ink. Jose Garcia is one of the most humble and nicest people I have ever met in my life. This place has talented artists that are ready for walk ins as well as artists that you can book an appointment with if you are looking for a bigger piece like a sleeve or something on a larger scale. I have been to other places and no where else is as down to earth and as laid back and chill as Hard Ink, but still get the job done with precision and professionalism. I’ll be honest, the other places I have been to were well known and had decent artists, but I have had all of their work covered up by Jose Garcia and he amazed me on every tattoo so far and we have plenty of more time and skin to do some more works of art!! Thanks for being humble and thanks for being reasonable when it comes down to cash. You and your crew are truly good people.

Took my son here for his first tattoo. The tattoo was super special to my son because it was in memory of his late older brother. His artists name is James, really nice guy, and did a really great job my son was elated. Ill be going back to get some more ink done on myself, and thanks James you made my sons birthday pretty special.

The man who does the piercings, Rick, is EXTREMELY unprofessional!! I booked my appointment and paid (well in advance). An hour before my 1 o’clock appointment, he asked me to come at 2 because he was running late. Okay fine. Minor inconvenience. Then I see him post on IG a picture of him out to breakfast. Kind of rude to schedule people and then make other plans, but again, okay. So I show up ON-TIME at the time he REQUESTED I show up, and I text him. No response. I call him, no answer. 15 minutes later he texts me saying he will be another 30 minutes after ALREADY delaying my appointment for an hour. I kindly requested my money back. He obliged and said that he would do my piercing free of charge for the inconvenience, and to just text him to schedule for the upcoming week. Needless to say, he has been giving me the run around and ignoring my texts. (He has read receipts on) will never give this place my business. Absolutely ridiculous.

Cecilia was AWESOME. It was my 1st tattoo ever and she did a fantastic job. I love it. Cant wait to do my next 1. I definitely would recommend 😁

The rose came out beautiful. The artist was very nice and attentive to me. The place is clean and the artwork on the walls in there is cool.

Chanda is a fantastic tattoo artist. She was very friendly and professional. I appreciated all of her advice. Thank you again!

Had a tattoo done by Brenda. She was very professional and passionate about her work. Very easy to communicate with to set up an appointment. She welcomed me with a smile. Very pleased with her work. I will go back to her for more work, but she’s about to blow up so I know she will be booked for months! Highly recommend!!!

Brenda did two of my tattoos and they are both outstanding, shes an amazing artist that is very passionate about her work and is really easy to communicate with to make an appointment. It is a very professional place with great prices. The artists are very polite and talented. Hard ink is the best place to get a tattoo!!!!

Best place in Philly to get ink done! Brenda is absolutely incredible! Her professionalism and artwork is amazing! They have the best customer service and always accommodate their clients. Will definitely be going back for ALL my future tattoos!

Got my forearm tatted very professional and clean salon. James was my tattoo artist, he was very patient and detailed with my piece and took his time to do a great job and walked me through the process since it’s been a long time since I’ve gotten a tattoo. Would recommend this place to anyone, they have great prices, a very nice environment, and you won’t be disappointed with your tattoo.

My girlfriend and I both had Halloween portraits, mine Frankenstein, hers bride of Frankenstein by Brenda. It was a $200 portrait special. Both look amazing, well definitely being going back to Brenda. Beautiful work

I brought my daughter here and we had matching tattoos. It was the best experience for both of us. We are going back today and her and her step sister are going to get one. Can’t wait to see you all later today. I would recommend them over and over again.

Great place at an affordable cost. Got both of my tattoos done there at an amazing price with exceptional customer service. Also very clean and hygenic.

That guy James was great! He did my first tattoo walked me through all the steps of healing, fair prices, respectable guy and great tattoo shop. Will be back soon

I want another tat i just would like to know the actual prices id have to spend or how much it would cost for a certain tat id want so i can have a good idea so i can have the money prepared

Adam fixed my daughter an my tattoos that were done by another person. He made a mess into a piece of art. Then did two new tattoos. The place is clean professional fun I would never go any where else... They are truly artist here... They dont just do tattoos they create art.....

I got my tongue pierced there and it was so fast literally under 30 seconds. I didnt feel a thing. I was so nervous and the guy said take a deep breath and it was done. Absolutely great

Hard ink is amazing the artist have amazing talent and skill I love the work they do Im more then happy and Ill be sure to recommend everyone ik to them

Amazing tattoo artist here, friendly and professional!

Puchoo work.

Always leave with a smile... my artist pucho done amazing work

Had a tattoo done here by Chanda. She did such a great job, 3 of my friends have come to her to get theirs done since. Great work, clean shop, fair prices. Worth it. Will be back for more.

Left Hard Ink with one of the best experience of my life! Lol BRENDA did her thang, very professional and funny and most importantly brought my vision to life! I can’t wait to go back and work on our next project!!

The tattoo that James did for me turned out excellent. Everyone that has seen it all say how beautiful it came out.

If your looking for a great tattoo artist this is the place to go!!! Adam did my tattoo and was extremely professional, did not make me feel uncomfortable at all. My tattoo looks so hot I LOVE IT!!

Good tattoo artist they do great work especially Jose 5 stars

I had my deceased daughter named from her Social security card tattoo on my upper are close to my heart, it is so beautiful.

I went in for a consultation for a large coverup. I was recommended the artist Pucho. He stated that he would be able to cover up my tattoo with an elephant. He seemed legit, so I paid a $100 deposit. While I was waiting for another artist to finish up with my daughters tattoo, I overheard the shop owner state thats not gonna come out how you think and that he recommended I get a flower cover up instead. I went back to the counter so that if there were any discrepancies I could be informed as well (since its my body and such a large piece). Pucho assured me that it was no problem and that he would sketch something and text it to me for my approval. I never received a text. I had to find him on Instagram. I requested the sketch. After a week or so with no response, and my tattoo appointment being only 2 days away, I disputed the transaction with my bank. To the rest who are contemplating a tattoo from here, good luck. But I dont gamble with my skin.

Got some work done from Adam yesterday and he did amazing this will now be my go to spot. Shop is clean and they are professional. Highly recomended!

Jose is awesome!!! Completely exceeded my expections.

Love this place! All that talent in one location and they are so nice.

Great. Just got my first tattoo and it was worth it. Definitely gonna go back and get some more tattoos. Highly recommend this shop

Put money and clean building to make health questions saffer and to make people glad for good ink .Mike aimes to keep clean tools for better services.

Great experience have to return to get date put on. The young lady was wonderful.

Good work at fair prices, n friendly employees would definitely get more work done when I get some extra money

Its best to make appointments if you want someone specific. They do good tattoo

Awesome artist and very friendly people and a reasonable price.

Truth be told adam gave a good tattoo but he was rude but it was good i would go again because awhile ago jose gave a tattoo but this time everyone was so loud buh that screamed and were rude! i wanted to use the bathroom but they said someone was in there and why was there a kid no younger then 10 in there playing and even the music was trap and bad and it wassuper loud and i want to use the bathroom but they said rudely a boul is already in there yo like im sorry but adam did a tatto but it was good and he was good but he was distracted with being on his phone and making jokes

They do outstanding work its a gem

Awsome clean, professional, you will never regret coming to this place. Just make appointments first, alot of good artists in the building

I came here for my belly button piercing . I want to come again for my septum piercing ..... I wanted to know how much is it to get my septum pierced? And how much for Snake Bites?

I been coming to Hard Ink Tattoo Studio and been getting tattooed by Jose Garcia since 2010, couldn’t be more then happier with the amount of great custom work Jose has given me over the years.

Great work, consistent artists. Reasonable prices, but great work!

They do excellent work, the only thing that is frusterating is when you sit there for 20 to 30 mins waiting for someone to come help you and they are sitting around talking, very frusterating.

Great place artist are awesome

Ive gotten my nipples pierced twice from there and going for a third time. (Had to take them out for procedures I had to get done, not because of infection or anything like that). Each time I went, it was a spur of the moment piercing. The first time they were about to close and stayed so I can come and the second time they were just as professional and kind. I am big on being scared of infections and the shop appears clean inside and out.

Creative, exquisite, master pieces. Highly recommend!!!

They r shap great work...

Got a few tattoos gets and a bunch of piercings. Nice work and nice people.

They do great work!

Could have better customer service

I got my snake piercing here, i loveddd it😍 i will come here again ✨

I went there to get my tattoos and I personally couldnt be anymore happier with the results the artists at hard ink know their stuff and they are over all pretty funny people i highly recommend going there for your first tattoos

The guys just sit around bullshitting instead of helping a customer

Nice place very professional

I wanted to get my daughters septum pierced and the person that does piercings wasnt even there yet and the people that work here just look at you like your crazy when you ask them questions i would rather get my daughters piercing done some where else the people are just rude would get any work done in this place

Hi i really need a cover up and i was wondering if there was an artist that is really good at them at this parlor
