About Compass Tattoo

Compass Tattoo is a licensed studio on Nicholas Street in the heart of Ipswich, marking its tenth year in the city.

A team of resident artists handles custom tattooing across styles including traditional, black-and-grey, fine-line and clean linework, and body piercing is available alongside the ink. The long-running crew and steady local following point to a studio built on repeat clients rather than one-off visits, which makes it an easy first stop for anyone new to tattooing as well as collectors.

For custom work or piercing in central Ipswich, it is an established, community-minded choice.
