Papa's Tattoos, Apalachin NY

I have gone to erik for years. Ive never left unhappy and always come back the minute i can.

I absolutely recommend going here, particularly if you're getting your first tattoo like I was. They're so knowledgeable and talented, and really make you feel comfortable. The place is very clean and Howard and Eric are simply the best in every way, I feel like I've known them for years. My husband and I got our tattoos done by Howard recently (photos attached) and he made it a truly wonderful (and relatively painless) experience. Definitely check them out!

I recently visited Papa’s Tattoos and the service I received was impeccable. I messaged them early in the morning and i was able to get my tattoo later in the afternoon on the same day! I have had other tattoos by other shops and Papas tattoos completely changed my perspective on the tattoo process. They showed me the exact steps on the tattoo process even down to the most tiniest details then leading up to the bigger details like ingredients in the ink as well as the sterilization process. Very very informative shop and I appreciate that. They are very respectful, kind and super easy going. I will be visiting again in the very near future! Thank you to Papas Tattoos for everything!

Eric is amazing.made me feel at ease.he did a simple tattoo for me on a Friday.and was able to get my friend and I in the next day. Howard is awesome.made us us feel comfortable and just kicked it out of the park!

I absolutely loved my tattoo. His shop is so beautiful and so welcoming. My experience was a 10! I would highly recommend Papa's Tattoos for your future tattoos, you won't be disappointed! Thanks so much Eric

Amazing first tattoo experience, Howard and Erik are super relaxed and welcoming, beyond satisfied with the work Howard did and the experience overall. Will be back for more.

Amazing place, very clean and professional! Incredible work will be adding photos soon of my ink! Highly recommend coming here!
