About this business

Specialties One of the oldest, and certainly iconic, tattoo shops in New York City -- Fun City Tattoo -- has fresh new blood taking over: Big Steve Pedone and Maxx Starr. The legendary outlaw tattooist Jonathan Shaw opened up Fun City in 1976 in Manhattan's East Village, decades before tattooing was legalized in the city in 1997. A lot of great artists came up in Shaw's shop, but it was also particularly renowned for the celebrity clientele that would hang there, like Johnny Depp, Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell. When Jonathan ... read more

User review by 52872c – I've had 5 of my 6 tattoos done by Kiku at inkstop & I can say nothing but amazing things about him! I went in with ideas & came out with tattoos better than I could have imagined! He even politely put up with my fussyness over the placement of them! The only other person's work I've seen is eric's & he is damn good & all! Although not much to look at, the place is clean, & the guys are professional, but fun at the same time! My 1st 2 tattoos there were walk-in appointments too which was great!

Even better than Triple X! – Ironically, I discovered this place thanks to my real estate broker. He highly recommended Eric. I met with Eric and scheduled for Thursday, 2 days later. He quoted me for $200 for a two hour job. When it was time to get started, he showed me the sterile needles and told me that if there were complications, he could stop at any time. We did a lot of talking about the tattoo culture and other fun stuff. Time passed quickly and it eased the pain. It was like two old friends hanging out, without the... read more

First Class Shop – Dropped in without an appointment on a Thursday. Eric and the boys were friendly and welcoming wothout being pushy. I told them what I was looking for and within 30 minutes Jose had the outline on my arm. The shop is clean and the work speaks for itself. Not only did I walk out of there with the exact piece I was looking for but I paid exactly the price I was quoted before we began. All in all when it comes to a tattoo shop you have a different set of criteria than when rating a pizza shop. That pizza slic... read more
