Fantastic experience: First time going to Chunk for a tattoo and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. I booked an hour session and got three small tattoos on my leg completed within that time. The pricing is so fair and cheap especially for the quality of work that is provided. The studio is clean, has good music, offers drinks for a small charge, and is well decorated. I was able to make myself very comfortable from the get go. The artists are always up for a chat and you can have some really good conversations with them, but they also won’t force you into talking if that’s not what you want. Chunk made sure I was comfortable and kept checking in throughout the process to make sure I was okay. I’ve been to a few different artists and Chunk is definitely my favourite. Couldn’t rate the place more highly.

Fantastic experience: As always, great session with Courtney, had a full day with her adding on to a leg piece we started a while back! For the past 4 years I’ve gone back to Courtney, very comfortable studio, Chunk & Bethan are always welcoming too, great atmosphere of a studio!

Fantastic experience: I got my first tattoo with Chunky T. I was nervous and anxious but he put my heart at ease, started slowly & kept checking in. It was a truly amazing experience and it didn’t hurt half as I imagined it - it was easy and exciting. He amended the design as I requested with no issues and made sure I was happy with it all. Thank you & see you again soon! X

Fantastic experience: Had my tattoo done by Bethan yesterday and I'm absolutely over the moon with it and I've had so many lovely comments from friends.

Fantastic experience: Having hunted for a tattoo studio in Lincoln for a while now I am very happy to have found The Iron & Pin. I've now had two completed tattoos here and another already booked in. Every interaction with the staff there is easy and friendly, it honestly feels like walking into a friends house more than a workplace. Bookings are easily handled and discussions over style changes or even just concepts are completed with the artists wealth of knowledge and willingness to work on a design with you.

Fantastic experience: Courtney did an incredible job on my tattoo, everything from the consultation to advise on aftercare was amazing, the shop has such a lovely vibe to it and was so safe and inclusive. Highly recommend it and will definitely be back!

The day before I received a picture of what I had asked for and on the day it all went smoothly. The tattoo is absolutely beautiful and I am so happy with it. Courtney made me feel very comfortable especially as the tattoo was very personal at a very difficult time for me. I will definitely be back for my next tattoo

Fantastic experience: Courtney was a very lovely person, she kept me updated and made me super comfortable prior to the appointment. Her design for what I had asked was a 10/10.

Thank you so much for this wonderful experience and brilliantly executed tattoo :)

Fantastic experience: Chunky T is an absolute joy in every sense of the word! I'd downloaded some films/series to watch....didn't need them!

Courtney was amazing, informative and friendly during the whole appointment, putting us both at ease! As someone who doesn’t cope with pain well, Courtney helped me through it and I can honestly see I barely felt it, she was incredibly gentle! The studio provided us with brilliant aftercare advice and we left feeling very bloody happy with our results! Thank you
