About King St Tattoo
King St Tattoo has sat on Newtown's main strip at 192 King St since 1999, making it one of the longer-running street shops in the inner west. It leans traditional, with walls covered in flash, a small museum of old tattoo machines and a gumball game that dishes out designs.
The vibe is relaxed and walk-in-friendly rather than precious, and the resident artists cover traditional and Japanese work through to black and grey, fine line and realism. It suits people chasing a classic bold-line piece, a quick flash tattoo or a spontaneous visit, as much as those planning something larger with a consultation first.
Cover-ups and bigger multi-session pieces are handled by appointment, and the shop keeps things straightforward with clear rules and cash payment.
