I went to The Ink Factory with a friend to get a nose piercing. Patrick took us straight after we filled the form and was lovely with us. He talked with us to make sure we were comfortable, gave us tips for aftercare... I can only recommand it, it was a great experience !!

Great discussion and guidance regarding tattoos. The team is also very understanding as I had to reschedule the appointment a couple of times due to unforseen circumstances. Highly recommended.
So far they have been very helpful in setting up appointments for us when we arrive in Dublin. Can't wait to get my "circle of life" tattoo done. Looking forward to meeting all of you on Sat. 6/17. Regards, Nana
I went to Ink factory to get my tattoo this september by Jack Mangan, I am so pleased with the tattoo itself, its so beautifully done. Also my experience was a very comfortable pleasant one, Jack and the rest of the staff there are lovely and very helpful, i cant recommend them enough!! very professional and the hygiene standards are impeccable !
Over the last year I have gotten a full sleeve from the guys in the Ink Factory. You won't find a better tattoo shop than this in Dublin! The entire team in there look after clients from start to finish no matter what. They are also ridiculously talented artists that produce the best tattoos. Can't recommend them any higher! The coffee is pretty good too!
Great tattoo parlour. A warm and friendly place with a great atmosphere that allows you to be immediately comfortable with the artist who's working on you. I loved my experience there and Diana was very very good! I'm booked in again and I'm really looking forward to my next ink!! See you guys soon.
I would highly recommend The Ink Factory to anyone considering getting a tattoo. So far I have been treated with the upmost respect and theyre artists are out of this world!
I ve gotten several piercings done here in the year and a half I ve lived in Dublin, and they ve been amazing every time. They re also very patient and helpful afterwards if you have any problems! I can t rate them highly enough.
Staff are all very friendly, process of booking the tattoo and getting an appointment was easy. Really looking forward to getting my tattoo in The Ink Factory.
Got my hair cut about a week ago from a girl there. I have a medium/longish hairstyle and was looking for a trim off the sides and back and even showed a picture. She took a quick glance at the pic and began chopping away. It is now uneven /lobsided and longer on one side. When asking for her (professional) opinion she became a little hostile saying I should know exactly what I want. (I'm not a professional hairstylist) Also just tried to sell me very expensive products. Very little conversation and for the price a bit shocking...
Amazing customer service! Wanted to surprise my boyfriend for his 21st whilst we spent a couple of days in Dublin and the staff couldn t have been more accommodating!
I've been to the Ink Factory 3 times in the last couple of months & its always my favourite to return to. I've gotten tattoos from Ciaran, who is one of thel nicest artist I have had to tattoo me who is just overall a really lovely chatty person & i'm always really happy with the tattoos he has done for me. Everyone who works there I have spoken to during visits have been so welcoming and nice & I always leave with a smile on my face. Will 100% be back soon again
Amazing experience at the Ink Factory. Nice atmosphere and amazing people working there. I got my nipples pierced 4 months ago, which was much less intimidating than I had though at the hands of the piercer, Rakan, and I have an upcoming tattoo booked. Very excited to visit more in the future!
I went in for a consultation with Julieta, and she was incredibly helpful. Enthusiastic, nice, and just all around lovely. All the other staff were great as well. Appointment is on Sunday, very excited!
I regularly get my hair cut here and am about to get a tattoo here. I ve always had good experiences and have so far had a great consultation with the artist for me tattoo
Been coming here for the last 3 years for tattoos and haircuts and there is nowhere better for either! Everyone that works in the Ink Factory are some of the soundest people you ll ever meet :)
I've only been in once to book a tattoo with the insanely talented Aline Wata. The atmosphere of the Parlor/shop was so friendly and, dare I say it, hip. The woman I spoke with was super friendly and helpful and I can't wait to get my tattoo here!
I did 3 earlobes piercings there. Staff was very kind and my pierceur very professional. I recommend. One month later my piercings are still here. Not infection or problems. They send by email advice to well clean piercings.
Staff here are brilliant! My wife and I are both getting our tattoo done here Saturday for our honeymoon and have had nothing but an exceptional experience so far.
Staff answer any questions you might have and our Tattoo artist Anderson Felix was a real joy to talk to for our consultation. He was very attentive to our needs and questions.
The establishment is kept extremely clean and you can tell they have the upmost regard for presentation, image, and sanitation. Everything I want to see in a tattoo parlor.
They offer, tattoos, piercings, coffee, and even a barbershop. Merchandise is also available for purchase. Ample sitting inside as well.
The website is easy to navigate and provides a wealth of information for you. As of note to travelers or even locals tattoos are cash only.
Walked in and was greeted by Niamh at the main desk. Gave me some great advice on the best sizes for the tattoo I was looking for. Within 15 minutes I was ready to go and she began on my piece. Very informative, professional, friendly and confident artist, would absolutely recommend Niamh to anyone interested in getting a tattoo at Ink Factory.
I always love going into the shop, everyone is always so friendly and chatty. You never feel anything but welcome, and they host some of the most talented artists in Dublin.
I was on a study holiday in Dublin and decided to do a piercing. Very clean place and kind and patient staff (especially against my poor English). It was immediately available and in a few minutes my request was satisfied! I highly recommend it
Praise to the short haired lady behind the counter! Since I'm going back home soon I did not have a lot of free dates to plan the tattoo session and I felt like she was bending over backwards to make it work for me! She was the sweetest! And I got a delicious cappuccino while I was waiting! I definitly recommend the place to people who get their first tattoo, it is a really friendly environment, the artists really take time to listen to your idea and they're very open for any questions that you may have.
I had a friend who got a really bad tattoo in another location in Dublin, the ink factory were very sympathetic and understanding of her situation and offered her laser or a really lovely cover up which prompted me to choose them for my own first tattoo. They also did a piercing for my Partner which is really lovely and had no problems or infections afterwards and looks pretty cool
Tattoos are very overpriced. Artist deleted his sketch of the piece I asked him for and didn t really listen to what I was asking him for afterwards. Rushed service. Maybe avoid mario
Had my first tattoo experience in The Ink Factory today, the guys are super friendly and very helpful, the building is super clean and looks great. I would happily recommend The Ink Factory to everyone I know.
Absolutely one of my best memories of my first visit to Dublin will always be the tattoo I got at The Ink Factory. I love their work, which made me choose their studio, and I respect their commitment to supporting the community through charity work and frequent fund-raising efforts. It was a great experience and I know that a visit to The Ink Factory is now a basic part of my itinerary on any future Ireland vacations.
Would absolutely recommend the ink factory. They went out of their way to make my appointment happen after some wires got crossed about it being cancelled. The studio is spotless, the staff are incredibly welcoming, and very responsive on emails.
Aline came up with a beautiful design for my tattoo - completely different to anything I had been imagining, and so much better - and was very attentive in making sure I was happy with everything from size, positioning, and colour, to the rotation of part of the design.
I wouldn't hesitate to get more work done at the ink factory - definitely the best studio I've been in.
I am traveling to Ireland on my honeymoon and The Ink Factory worked really hard on scheduling my tattoo for me. They went above and beyond! Great place!
So far so great. I walked in and got talking about my tattoo design. I got some good tips on what's needed to keep a clear and crisp design. I had a voucher from last year (i was bit late using it) but they were great and used the voucher as my deposit. I'm booked in for next week. Cant wait to get my tattoo done, I'll update later with pics
I just recently came from a visit to The Ink Factory. Adam was great in having a conversation with me about the tattoo I would like to get as I am hoping for a good memory of my week in Ireland. I have an appointment scheduled in two days and I am very much looking forward to what Adam can do for me!
Easy-going place. Jack Mangan is fantastic as an artist and keeps you at ease throughout the tattoing experience. Great place with good vibes! Reception duties could be better organised, but the artist himself is spot on!
Where do I start. I got inked there three times and got a septum pierced here in the last year, and it just keeps getting better. The staff is super nice and helpful, no matter what you want or need, always happy to help. Any issues that come up are resolved quickly and most professionally, and the whole place makes you feel at home from the monent you step foot into the factory. The resident artists are masters in what they do, and no matter which style of tattoo you want, you will find the right artist to do it. Competent, nice, welcoming, inclusive and individual, the Ink Factory is hands down the best place in Dublin to get your body modified in any way.
Got a large shoulder tattoo in the inkfactory last year and am coming back now for another on my forearm, the booking process is made easy and the staff are so friendly. The artists are really professional and amazing at their jobs
Love this place! Their piercer is very professional and experienced, and it shows in his work. I got my nose pierced, and it was one of the least painful piercings I ve ever had. Can t recommend it enough!
Got my nose pierced here! I was really nervous to get it done but the staff were so lovely and welcoming. 25 for the whole thing including the stud, which is great considering the level of service you get. Will definitely be back!
Really friendly staff and great atmosphere. I've had two piercings done here before and am getting my first tattoo with them today! Everyone is very helpful and answered all of my many questions. Will definitely be returning for more piercings and tattoos.
En route to get my tattoo with the Ink Factory. So far the process has been great. Staff have been very professional and attentive. Any questions I had have been answered almost immediately by staff and by the tattoo artist. Super happy that the artist uses vegan ink also :) will update after tattoo !
my friends and I travelled to Dublin on planned on getting tattoos. The Ink Factory was really helpful even though I live in England and couldn't come in for a consultation. They were able to design exactly what I wanted and were extreamly friendly. I love my tattoo!
My husband and I are celebrating our Honeymoon in Ireland and getting tattoos together. This shop has provided us with exceptional service over the past few months as we have been coordinating details on our visit. They are responsive and as friendly as can be! We cannot wait to visit and see the great results! 5/5 would recommend!
I got my first tattoo here, extremely friendly and welcoming staff. Tried to book a tattoo several times and consult with artists and after speaking with them you are given a better idea of what you would like without feeling discouraged at all. They have an artist to suit whatever style you may require and all of them are of extremely high standard. Very professional and sanitary set up. My artist was Diana Plescia, highly recommended for floral work whether in black and grey or colour and she shows genuine excitement in giving you a piece of unique art which makes you feel so much more comfortable.
The Ink Factory has a great vibe. Everyone from the barista making the coffee, to the artists, and the owners (who are often in the shop) go out of their way to make your experience feel easy. They are casual but professional and on point. I met with my artist the day I went in, and we booked for a few weeks ahead on the spot. They have fantastic artists and even stopping in for a coffee and a chat is a positive experience.
I started planning my trip from Texas to Dublin over 6 months ago. I immediately went online to see who was top rated tattoo establishment. The Ink Factory was it! Put a deposit down and scheduled my appointment. The artist has been in constant contact with me so they know what I will have done while I am there. Amazing! I am stoked to get there and have them tattoo me! Stay tuned for follow up....
I have gone along with a few of my friends who were getting piercings/tattoos here and it has always been a really positive experience. One of my friends got a walk-in appointment only having to wait 30 mins and the tattoo took about 15 minutes! Staff are all really friendly, had a lovely time with the male piercer and the shop/atmosphere make the experience all the better.
I'm going there for my first tattoo at the weekend and I know I am in good hands. Looking forward to it!
I had the Ink Factory recommended to me by a friend in work who had a piece done there a while ago. I m looking to get a geometric design for my next tattoo. After researching loads of artists in studios around Dublin I settled on this studio. All the artists portfolios look amazing, but Lucas felt like the best fit for what I want. Dropped in over the Christmas to see about booking a consultation and they arranged one on the spot for the following week. Adam was on the desk and was dead sound. Felt comfortable in the place straight away, which is important when your gonna be spending so much time in a studio. Very good communication via their email and by phone. Let you know just what you need to send them as prep etc, and let you know of any changes that come up with appointments etc. Now I just have to get the tattoo started!! But so far service has been 5 star.
I haven t got my tattoo yet but I wanted to give a review as I live in Waterford and not Dublin, I couldn t just walk in a book! But I was talking to Niamh Gannon, and she was so so helpful too me! And then emailed the ink factory and they were just as helpful! Got my date sorted and time in just one day! Most helpful people out! And I m sure I ll have fun there! x
I went to The Ink Factory to have a consultation with tattoo artist Diana. Upon arrival I was welcomed by staff and told where to go for the consultation. Diana was lovely and very informative. After some thought I have decided that I will be getting my first tattoo done by Diana because she was so friendly and really listened to what I wanted in my tattoo. The staff were also very welcoming and warm, and the shop itself appeared very clean and professional to say the least. Overall I am very happy with my decision and am looking forward to my first tattoo!
I am getting my first tattoo in the Ink Factory next week and I was so impressed with how easy it was to make the appointment. I don t live in Dublin, and it made everything so much easier for me when it could be done online- from contacting the artist to the deposit and appointment. The artists are all fantastic too- I cannot wait for more! :)
Got a tattoo done here two years ago and love it, the quality and talent here is top notch. All the staff were helpful and friendly and made me feel very comfortable . The booking process was very easy to do. Booked in for my second tattoo and can't wait for it . Would really recommend getting something done here , heard great things about the piercing aswell
Mario was an absolute gem - really kind, gave excellent advice, did a grand job of the tattoo. I ll be coming back next time! Rest of the staff were awesome as well.
Really lovely staff make the whole process very straightforward, artists put even the most nervous clients at ease! Got my first tattoo there yesterday and will without a doubt be back in for another.
Highly professional Highly skilled artists Would just be a brief intro Had a consultation Supplied the image and what was returned was even better I m sure today will go according to plan as I m in the hands of what I m sure will be if not already is the legendary Antone Masri...roll on 12pm :)
