Love this shop. Not only are the artists top quality, but the vibes among all the staff are great. I’ve spent many hours here getting tattooed by Mike, and I’m always looking forward to my next session. Any artist here is insanely talented so you really can’t go wrong, and the piercer Matt is very knowledgeable and professional. Highly recommend this place for any of your tattoos or piercings.
I got my helix re-pierced here. Matt did a great job, especially letting me know the aftercare instructions. I definitely recommend him. The shop is overall very nice and clean. 5/5
We live in Indiana and come here to Anna Maria Island every year. My daughter just turned 17 last December and had mentioned getting tattoos that signifies our ties to the area. So I Google places and Sacred Arts was a top pick. I called, went in for consultation and gave them a deposit and secured our time before we headed back to Indiana. So 3 of us got tattoos! My wife and daughter got matching palm tree tattoos but in different locations and I got the back of my calf covered in a palm scene that was more masculine. Skippy was our artist! She was fantastic in every detail. She led off with my daughter to help ease any anxiety she may have had. Talking to her with every step. My daughter never flinched. Then my wife went and my more detailed and larger tattoo was last. Skippy was awesome to say the least! We had a blast doing this together as a family and we made some great friends! Skippy even made a stencil for our son who was not getting tattooed at 8 lol, but made him feel like he was a part of something. He loved Skippy, she put on a movie for him as well. We will always come here when we decide it’s ink time while in Florida! We love this place, they(that includes the other artists in the studio)treat you like family. Thank you Skippy and Sacred Arts for helping make this an unforgettable journey ❤️
A couple years ago my sister and i got tattoos here. We brought our mother with us who was very leary, and scared to even come with us. The staff was great and especially with our mother who had a 100 questions. Little did we know we would lose her suddenly two months later. When we left, we said we would be back for another but have not made it yet. Thank you for the experience of our mothers life time and for your staff being so kind.
Matt’s the only person I’d ever trust again with a piercing. He’s incredibly knowledgeable and takes his time to explain everything. He really does a great job! 10/10
Peggy was amazing to work with! Her attention to detail and artistic flair truly shine through in her designs. She’s incredibly professional and made the entire experience comfortable and enjoyable. I took my son for his first tattoo & Peggy really made the whole process easy and fun! Highly recommend her for anyone looking for beautiful, quality tattoos!
This is a well run business. Great vibe and energy here. MATT took time to explain different piercings and why they would work or not on different parts of my body. I was able to make an informed decision for sure. Thank you, Matt.
Bob is fantastic! I have an older tattoo that I was in the process of covering up, partial cover up was started by another tattoo artist. Bob completely redid the whole tattoo and it looks amazing! His artistic ability is fantastic. Go see Bob for all your tattoo needs and you will not be disappointed.
I needed to have my ears re-pierced since I had not worn earrings in a long time. Matt did a great job explaining everything. I would definitely recommend him!!
All the employees are great people and cool to be around. They pay attention to detail and make sure your tattoo is spot on. Id recommend Sacred Arts to everyone. Get their ink!!! Amazing work!
W tattoo shop highly recommend skippy she lets you watch movies while you tattooed, she is all around friendly and easy to talk with. did amazing on my tattoo (it was my first tattoo and she made it a very good experience im so ready for more already) she put a sonic stencil on my little brother to help him feel included and he loved it, and she also let him watch a movie!
Awesome, Awesome, Awesome experience!!!!Throughout the entire process, Evan was truly amazing. I had an idea in my head, and Evan took the time and effort to turn that idea into a work of art. Super chill and fun to talk to, he created a memorable experience in addition to an awesome tattoo.I am beyond happy with both the experience and finished product, and I highly recommend Evan and Sacred Arts Tattoo.
Got my industrial and upper conch pierced by Matt, who did a great job. He is very knowledgeable and professional, and the shop is very clean. He has become the only piercer I will go to in my area. If you want a piercer who has a lot of experience and is more than willing to answer any and all questions you have, even if youre not a current client, this is the place to go. I cannot recommend enough.
A little hard to get a good photo of my tattoo since its so big and wraps around my arm, but I have to say Mike did an INCREDIBLE job! I am soooo happy with my tattoo. This place is absolutely fantastic; its clean, friendly, and I felt so welcome here! Mike was great with helping me figure out exactly what I wanted and what would look the best. I was a bit nervous but he made me feel comfortable and like I was in good hands! I will be coming back for sure! I cannot recommend this awesome shop enough, so if youre considering a tattoo DEFINITELY come here.
Micky was our artist today and he did an amazing job on the cover up (pics attached). From the moment we walked in we felt immediately welcomed and as if we were hanging out at an old friends house! The entire crew here mesh well with each other and also engage with you as well which made the entire experience very chill! We were here for a good portion of the day and there was a steady flow of people who either got a tattoo, piercing, or a consultation and they were very professional in explaining the procedure. This was a birthday present for my son & Im excited to come back to get my own! Still have to get the antlers finished, but excited to come back to hang out with these guys again!!!
I came in a few weeks ago and received a nose piercing from Matthew. He was knowledgeable and professional, let me know clearly any problems I may have and why hes doing what hes doing. Answered all my questions and did the job efficiently and quickly. I was impressed and grateful for his work. The business even sent me an email with a detailed explanation of how to care for the peirced area, it was immensely helpful and saved me a lot of pain and effort. I highly recommend Sacred Arts Tattoo, great service and client care!
I cannot express enough how amazing my artist Bob Kerr is!!!! He blew my expectations out of the water! He listened to my ideas but also gave his own creative touches. He was knowledgeable on what wouldn’t work as far as scale and long term effects with aging. He truly cares about each piece he does and gives his best to everyone who sits in his chair. I look forward to finishing this sleeve with him and excited to see how the rest turns out!!
Super clean and efficient. I went to get a piercing and Matt was great with me and my friend. Would absolutely go for tattoos and piercings there!
I got a full day session from Bob and it was well worth it! We are working on a full adventure time sleeve and I can’t wait to come back. The shop was clean and everyone was friendly! They will definitely be my new go to shop! Check them out for sure!
Super professional group and extremely courteous. Only tattoo shop I’ll go to for their exceptional work and amazing environment. If a great tattoo and fun personalities don’t get you the pricing will, absolutely fantastic place and people.
Monica got a Tattoo there lately. Her artist was very friendly and made her feel as comfortable as possible. It was her first one. She is very Happy with the results. I was there to support her HaHa. Overall a positive experience. She will be back.
Bob is amazing and cant thank him enough for doing my tattoo.
The employees are friendly here, they will fit you in even with their busy schedules, and the tats and piercings are really good. Plus as an extra bonus you get a free t-shirt and sticker. Great job guys!
I’ve been to the shop numerous times for tattoo work. I went in yesterday to get a couple piercings. Always a welcoming, friendly experience. Matt thoroughly explained the process along with after care instructions. He also sent after care instructions via email as well so there is no confusion or questions. I will always recommend sacred arts tattoo and piercing to anyone wanting a piercing or tattoo work done. Great shop, clean, and friendly staff. Thanks to Mickey, and Bob as well.
The Sacred Arts team is truly the best around! I have had several tattoos done by Mickey, who does amazing realism tattoos and will always be my top recommendation. All of the other artists are also extremely talented and the entire team is so welcoming. I have had a couple piercings done here as well that healed effortlessly and weren’t crooked! I also strongly appreciate the knowledge that this staff has and how informative they are. Truly the best tattoo shop around!
I went to sacred arts while down here on vacation and they were amazing! My artist was Evan and he did an incredible job on a very meaningful tattoo and I couldn’t be more grateful!!! He was extremely professional and does a fantastic job looking over your tattoo making sure it is absolutely perfect! The shop as a whole is amazing, great vibes, everyone is professional and it’s just an overall amazing shop! Best one I’ve been to! I highly recommend going there for your next tattoo!
Dropped in to get my ear pierced and had a super professional, painless experience with Matthew. It was so much easier than I had anticipated…it’s been about 35 years since I got my ears pierced! Now, almost 4 weeks later my ear is still doing great. I learned a lot from Matthew about how to care for piercings as well as eating smart to regulate blood sugar in preparation for the body’s responses to piercing and tattoos. Left with so much more than expected and so glad I went to Sacred Arts that day.
Had a great time at this shop on Friday, 3/10. Got my leg piece done by their apprentice, Peggy Kerr, and she did a phenomenal job. I would definitely go back and get another piece done by her. Place was clean and staff was cool. Full colored pic is 4days after getting inked.
Matt was phenomenal! I got my septum pierced here and he talked me through everything and was incredibly knowledgeable. Not only was he down to earth and made me feel super comfortable, but he made sure before I left I knew everything I needed to know to have a successful healing process! 10/10 recommend :)
This is a great shop! I highly recommend Skippy! Im from out of town and my bf set up my appointment with her in advance. She is so pleasant and professional and is an amazing tattoo artist (and she takes her skills seriously!). I love my tattoo and when Im back in town, I have another one that I want to get and Ill be scheduling with her!
Evan gave the most amazing Sea Turtle tattoo and hands down the most accommodating tattoo artist. He came in on a day that the shop was closed just to give me my tattoo on my last day of vacation. Excellent service overall. Tattoo turned out amazing, crispy lines, excellent detail and color. Highly recommend Evan for all your tattoo needs. I will be paying him a visit the next time Im in town. Id give 10 stars if I could. Thanks Evan, you are amazing!!!
Went in for a consultation and met Mickey. He was great! He listened to my ideas for my next 2 tattoos and had great input. Can’t wait to go back for my appointments in may. Shop was clean and professional.
6 out of 5 stars, had a awesome experience. The whole staff was really friendly and very knowledgeable, super easy to work with. Mike knocked my tattoo out of the park, I can’t stop looking at it, and getting compliments :). I had a chance to look at the other artists portfolios and they are all absolutely incredible. It’s like a all star team of artists all in one shop, and I’m already looking forward to booking with them again in September. Can’t recommend Sacred Arts enough!
My daughter wanted us to get matching tattoos for her first one on her birthday and she did research and chose this shop. I was surprised with the customer service and great work. Mike did an amazing job on our tattoos. My other daughter got her rook pierced and Rory did an amazing job with that. Everyone there was super friendly, sarcastic, honest and exactly what I would expect from a business in this line of work. Keep doing what youre doing... you do it very well!! Thank you to Mike for fitting us in, being that youre booked so far out in advance. Yall made our birthdays memorable and I am very grateful!!
Mick is a great artist. Personable and understands what you’re trying to accomplish. This studio not only took care of me. But, my son as well as he was just entering the Army. Veteran owned business. Let’s go!
Got my first tattoo and it was such a great experience!! Peggy was my artist and she did a fabulous job! Highly recommend!
Called mid day for a last minute appointment after being canceled at a different shop for just a small tattoo. Sacred Arts was quick to get us set up with an artist and had a sketch done in just a few minutes. My friend and I were set up with artist Evan who did awesome matching alligator tattoos! Would recommend this shop & Evan specifically. He was very talented and a very nice guy.
Great shop! Always nice and clean when I come in. I like the atmosphere here it’s always fun and cool. Many different artist here with different styles to suit everybody’s needs. True professionals who are serious about their craft. Mike csanki did a few pieces on me and I’m more than satisfied with them. I always get compliments on the art work done here and people always ask me where is a good spot for tattoos (I have many tattoos) and I always recommend this shop because it’s the best in the area!
I went down to Florida for vacation and chose this tattoo place because of the awesome reviews and because it was a local, veteran owned place. Good thing I called ahead a couple weeks to set up an appointment because they are not able to take walkins since they are so busy! Evan was available for the time I was in Florida and he was great to work with! He was easy to contact and stayed in touch to confirm the appt. I showed him ideas of what I wanted and he was able to draw up the tattoo. I love what he came up with and the whole experience was perfect! The place was very clean and everyone there seemed really cool. The prices were very reasonable. If I’m ever down in that area I will definitely go back for another piece. Thanks Evan!
Yesterday I called asking if they could take a look at some piercings I had done elsewhere 6 weeks ago. They had been giving me problems even with trying to keep them clean, being gentle, etc. It was a nice atmosphere when I walked into the shop. After seeing some Dragonball and Star Wars stuff and hearing some metal I felt more at ease.After taking a look at them, Matt said he could definitely help. He not only replaced the earrings that were aggravating my ears, but took the time to educate me properly for my piercings aftercare.I wish I had come here first for my piercings, but now I know. If I decide to get more piercings and maybe even tattoos I will definitely be coming here. Thank you Matt!
I love it here. Everyone is friendly and fun. They make you feel at ease and like you are immediately part of their family. They take pride in their work and arent happy unless youre happy. They are very committed to producing ultra high quality work whether it be in tattoo artistry or in piercings. They are top notch! I just had my piercings done by Rory. He did an awesome job! Had a daith and a nose piercing. Super easy and smooth! Talked to Mike about a tattoo he was so nice and easy going, the whole time making sure I understood he wanted me to be happy.
I went here with my mom to get my septum done, the piercer was very kind and comforting. They use good equipment and he was very educated. Definitely going back! I recommend.
So far Ive gotten three piercings and one tattoo from Sacred Arts and Ive been SO satisfied. Its best to come in and book ahead of time though. These guys are BUSY, but its worth the wait. I highly recommend Amanda. Super professional and made me feel extremely comfortable during my piercing appointments. Love love love this place!
Skippy and Matt are AMAZING!!!!!!I stopped here for a tattoo ( walk in) with my two closest friends. Myself and one of them also got our noses pierced. They were amazing, personable, and very welcoming. I think we were there 3 hours and they were so chill.Fast forward to today and I noticed when I woke up I noticed that a nipple piercing I got in November had its metals fall out. Freaking out, I called Sacred arts again because I had such a great experience with them the few days prior. 45 minutes later and they took care of getting a new piercing in my nipple and sent me on my way. Because of this experience, any time I have friends going to the area and wanting a tattoo or piercing I will forever recommend Sacred Arts.
Every time I’ve been to the shop it’s always been a great experience, super clean and just a fun atmosphere. Been tattooed by a couple different artist there and have always had a good experience! Currently working with Bob on my first bigger tattoo piece and he’s been amazing! I’d definitely recommend Bob for a tattoo if you ever stop in!
After reading lots of great reviews of Rory the piercer, I had to stop in during vacation. The hour and a half drive was definitely worth it! The shop was very clean, played great music and the staff was very friendly. Rory is hands down the nicest piercer and the absolute best! You can tell he’s passionate about his craft, very knowledgeable on all piercings, and was ready to answer all questions I had. I went in for my rook, and he had several colored gem options to choose from, which is so rare for any shops here back home to supply. It was my least painful piercing experience, and I have quite a few. I’ll only go to Sacred Art now for my body modification needs! Thank you guys!! :)
Been following the shops Instagram, and artists pages for a while now. The art work Ive seen is incredible, and even though I only got a small peice on my neck by mike, I couldnt have asked someone to do a better job. The quality of the tattoo is incredible, and I get a lot of compliments saying the cuts look fresh, and real. The artists and staff are awesome, really cool, and will make you laugh. Its a good time, and i highly recommend this shop to everyone who asks.
Received my very first ever tattoo with Doug, and it was an awesome experience! I didnt make an appointment, but I was able to get in pretty much right away. The shop was clean, the artists all seemed very knowledgeable, and I was comfortable through the whole experience. Fair prices, too! I love the work that I had done, and I highly recommend Sacred Rites to anyone looking for a tattoo in the area.
I had a great experience at Sacred Art Tattoo and with my artist Mickey. I was a walk in, do to being stood up at another shop in the area for a second time. The shop was very accommodating. As luck would have it, Mickey had a cancellation and was able to get me In quickly. Mickey is the total package. I loved his attitude the most, upfront and to the point, no BS. My tattoo is absolutely beautiful. I’ll be back for sure ✌️
I was just in over the weekend to get my first tattoo. Was thoroughly impressed with everything about the shop. Mickey did my tattoo it came out fantastic and was exactly what I wanted. The employees were all super friendly and made me feel very comfortable. I saw a couple of people getting piercings while I was there and after seeing the care they take, will most likely be bringing my daughters if they decide they want their ears pierced.
Walked into this place for the first time, and the 3 artists that were on the clock that day were there. They were all so sweet and welcoming. Joked with me during my tattoo, and really just made the whole experience worth it. NOT TO MENTION Mike absolutely slayed my tattoo! I wanted my current dogs portrait on my arm, and he sure did it. I’m obsessed, and can’t wait for Mike to finish my arm! Thank you!
Actually brought my daughter in for her first tattoo, everyone at the shop was super friendly and Mickey, the artist that did the tattoo, was AMAZING! He took the time with her & was just an all around great guy & amazing artist😁 She thought it was going to hurt, but he had a light hand & she said it really didnt hurt at all. Very personable as well. I was VERY impressed with their shop, VERY clean and professional... Best tattoo shop I think Ive ever been to👍 I would DEFINITELY recommend to anyone looking to get some new ink!! 😁👍👌 Keep up the great work!!
If you are looking to get your first tattoo or any tattoo, this is the best place to go! Once you go in the first time they make you feel at home and very comfortable. I personally get tatted by mike but there are other very talented artist in there that do many styles. Great place to go too and recommend highly!
Have gotten 2 tattoos from here both times I was down in Bradenton for vacation. And they did an excellent job. Quick with booking appointments and went above and beyond with their work. First time was a guest artist Kyle Roll and the second time my artist was Bob Kerr. Definitely will be getting more tattoos from here.
Came in yesterday thinking I’d have to book an appointment since it was Friday; but they had a last minute cancellation and were open for a walk in! After browsing everyone’s portfolios I really liked Bob’s and lucky for me he was also open. After deciding what to do and my stencil was drawn we started.Definitely by far one of the most interesting and intelligent artists I’ve ever had the pleasure of tattooing me; great conversation, because I get nervous and needed to talk.Thanks again Bob; Will definitely call when I’m ready to book another one
I couldnt be happier with my experience at Sacred Arts. Me and my friends went to get piercings and Rory was so incredibly accessible and friendly. I wanted to get my septum and he told me that he would find the best angle and that if he didnt it would work well, he wouldnt do it. Rory was very honest and walked us through the entire process and answered any and all questions we had. We felt incredible comfortable and had a great time at the shop. In addition, the tattoo artists were super friendly and the shop was incredibly clean and organized. Id recommend Rory as a piercer any time! Thank you!
Came in today for my first tattoo i did walk in everyone was very nice Peggy did the tattoo she was very sweet i really feel like she cared so much about me and the tattoo gonna come back here for the next one
This shop is hands down my favorite shop in the area. They are clean and professional and the staff goes above and beyond to make your experience there the best it can be. I got tattooed by Mike Csanki. His work is beautiful high quality art. It healed perfectly. Definitely worth the drive, I will be getting all my future work here.
Matt has been an excellent piercer and person to work with! He pierced both me and my mums nostrils and talked us through all the steps and processes of the piercing. The piercing was almost completely pain free and was easily the most comfortableness piercing experience Ive ever had. He had a great personality and kept us both calm through the whole experience and I would highly recommend.
Took my almost six year old here to get her ears pierced. The staff was amazing. Very supportive, knowledgeable and kind. The piercer and owner, Matt, was great with her. The whole process was very clean and well done. As a nurse I was impressed with the sterility. Two hours later her ears are not red and she says they do not hurt at all. No tears during the process either. Amazing job!!
They are awesome! My brother and I were able to get right in and Mike did a great job on both of our (surprise) tattoos. Everything is really clean, he took his time, and is an awesome artist. The guys here are all funny and make what could be really painful fun anyway. Next time Im looking for a tattoo I will definitely be back here.
Mike did an excellent job on my tattoo and I will absolutely go back. The shop is very clean and comfortable, and in spending time there its obvious that you cant go wrong with any of their artists. I dropped by the day before a holiday weekend and they were able to get me on the schedule on short notice and get me out quickly. This was not my first tattoo or the first shop that Ive been to but Sacred Rites has earned my loyalty moving forward.
I had an overall GREAT experience with Sacred Arts Bradenton. I spoke with piercer Amanda prior to coming in and she answered all of my questions and made me feel comfortable about the process (septum piercing). When I arrived I was greeted politely by multiple staff members and checked in quickly. The shop was pristine clean and had a very warm and inviting feel to it. I am very happy with the piercing Amanda did for me and it was virtually painless. I will be going back soon for my next piercing and I highly recommend Sacred Arts and especially Amanda.
I moved down to Florida recently and I left a wonderful tattoo artist/shop back in Ohio... I was very skeptical about finding a new place so a few months back I went to the Tampa Tattoo Convention to check out and talk to some Florida shops. When I walked past the booth of Sacred Rites all of the guys standing behind the booth said hello and one of them (can’t remember his name) talked to me for a good 30 mins about the shop and the different tattoo artists and answered any/all questions I had.The other day Friday 01/26/18 I woke up and decided I wanted to pierce my nose. I called the shop to see what hours the piercer would be there and if he did walk ins. Later in the day I drove down to Bradenton - it’s a 1.5 hour drive for me. But let me tell you, well worth it! My piercer was Rory and he was fantastic! Greeted me when I walked through the door, fit me in right away, was very informative and friendly! I’m afraid of needles so I was a little anxious - but Rory was there through the whole process with his professional opinion and advice and his great personality! The whole process was quick and easy, the shop was very friendly and clean! A wonderful experience and I can’t wait to return! The drive was worth the high class experience! Thanks to Rory for my nose piercing! And glad I found a new shop 🙂
I dont even know where to begin. My daughter wanted a double helix piercing for her birthday and when we first visited, she spoke with Matt who greeted us in such a friendly yet professional manner, assured her that it would be a great choice, and offered advice on placement due to her ear shape. Because he did not have the supplies on had, we had to return later in the week, and Rory was the one who did her piercing. Equally as friendly and professional, both I and my daughter felt completely at ease. He quickly (and relatively painlessly) did her piercings, then because I had asked about my ears possibly having closed up through the years, he took a look, and re-pierced both of my ears for no charge, working through scar tissue and taking his time. What a great establishment with friendly, knowledgeable staff. Would recommend them highly to anyone!
Mike does amazing work! I always recommend him to anyone I know who wants a good tattoo! I always brag about how awesome and detailed my elephant piece is, that Mike did! Hes so passionate about his work and truly cares about his customers and always connects with them. Hands down the best artist Ive been to. Ill always go back to him and his Sacred Rites team!
I got my belly button done by Rory and i literally cannot day enough good things about this place. I walked in & was greeted super kindly, everyone was so sweet and funny, and they had me in and out in 10 minutes. I was skeptical of their low prices but trust me you are getting such great quality work for super cheap! 100% will be back for any piercing or tattoo!
I have 3 piercings from here and had a wonderful experience every time! I’ve been pierced by all three talented piercers and I have nothing but good things to say. They each make sure you’re happy with your placement before piercing and each piercing was swift and painless. They’re all very knowledgeable about aftercare and the piercings themselves. I would recommend anyone to get pierced here!
I highly recommend this shop! Ive been in a few times to get piercings but this was my first time getting a tattoo in the shop. Doug Hatter is amazing. He took the idea I had and made it so much more than I could have imagined! The new owners and crew are fantastic! I will definitely be back to see them! Thanks Doug and Sacred Rites Tattoo!
Ive never had a better, more professional experience at a tattoo shop. My sister and I walked in on a Saturday afternoon for piercings and had no problems getting in right away. Rory did an awesome job explaining everything from beginning to end. Follow up with care instructions via email was extremely appreciated. Everyone in the shop was friendly and professional. If I could give 10 stars I would. I will definitely come back for my next tattoo.
Amanda is hands down the best piercer, I’ve gotten 3 piercings by her so far and she is very clean, professional, and calm. She explains the process so you know what to expect and works quickly, making the pain brief and easy. Definitely coming back love her work.
Evan (full_calabrese) did a great job on me and my friends tattoos. He drew exactly what we wanted and was very helpful in sizing and giving his input about placement, etc. I will be going back to him whenever I need another tattoo. Also, the shop itself is excellent, very clean and professional. I would recommend Sacred Arts to anyone who needs a tattoo.
My experience at Sacred Arts was great! The place is totally clean and that gave me a lot of confidence as a first impression. Rory took care of my second piercings in my two ears. He was very professional and my piercings look beautiful and sharp like I wanted to have them. I recommend this place 100%.
I had an amazimg experience here. The tattoo artists are so talented and very kind.
My wife went to get her ears pierced today. She gets a little anxious about needles but Rory made her feel super comfortable and did a great job! I would high recommend him if you need any piercings! He was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions. Took his time and made sure it was done right. We were in and out in about 20 minutes without any appointment.
I have been here a couple times. Ive gotten 2 tattoos done and I had my dermal done here as well. The place is super clean and everyone was very respectful and welcoming. I dont have any complaints. The artists are great at what they do. They made me feel at ease and kept me laughing. The piercer was awesome too. He made me feel comfortable. He made all my nervousness go away and my dermal was perfect. I would recommend any and everyone to go to Sacred Rites for all your tattoo and piercing needs. Thank again guys yall are great and I will be coming back really soon!!
I just got my first tattoo; thankfully they were able to fit me in- I wasnt aware of the proper time frame for booking an appointment, but I know now. Either way, this experience was not rushed in any way. The atmosphere was really relaxed and fun! Nice, polite, professional people as well; I most definitely recommend them to anyone wanting a tat/piercing. Shoutout especially to David, my tattoo artist!
I LOVE THIS PLACE! The woman who pierced my nose was so nice and friendly. I came in with such anxiety BUT she really eased it. She talked to me throughout the whole thing, was very informative and gave me her card so I can instant message her if anything comes up with my piercing or if I have any questions in general. Overall I will be coming here again because the atmosphere is a 10/10 and I viewed all the tattoo portfolios, Great work honestly!
Me and my mum got a matching tattoo done on our ankles by Skippy yesterday, the tattoos are absolutely amazing, Skippy did an amazing job ! Each little details was thought of, she was very gentle and patient especially with my poor mum who was in pain and a little bit dramatic by moment ahah, she even gave her a squishy plush to grip on that was adorable, I’m so glad we found a new artist in the Bradenton area and I will definitely be back soon to get more work done by Skippy. Everyone is nice at sacred arts tattoo and the place is always spotless clean, 10/10 !
Every experience Ive had with this shop was amazing! All the artists and the environment make you feel so comfortable. Mike is an awesome guy to work with, from the the start of coming up with the perfect design that you want, to creating your masterpiece for you! I would 10/10 recommend this shop to anyone!
I got my first tattoo at Sacred Arts, and I am so happy with my tattoo and the whole process to get it. Ari is terrific! She was very professional and easy-going, helped to make everything easy and comfortable for me. The rest of the team was great too. Really happy with my experience there and I would recommend them without hesitation.
This is my 3rd visit to Sacred Arts. I’ve gotten 2 tattoos from 2 different artists, and tonight I took advantage of a piercing special and got my nostril pierced. Service has always been prompt, professional, and kind. Everyone has great energy and works to ensure your experience is great and you walk out with what you want.I usually feel dizzy/faint with needles involved, but not tonight with Rory! He was amazing and sweet, and it was over in a few moments.Thank you Rory, and thank you to the entire staff! I will continue to return to Sacred Arts for my tattoo/piercing needs and I highly recommend everyone visit them.
I was extremely nervous to get my first tattoo done but Mike Callaway did an amazing job and I am beyond impressed with the results. He did a great job answering all of my questions and keeping me calm through the whole process. It is a very clean place and the staff is friendly and funny. Highly recommend!
Great group of artists! Not only are they amazing at tattooing and piercing (my group included 2 tattoos and 1 piercing), they were incredibly knowledgeable, welcoming and really cool guys. Skyler did a tattoo on my daughter and her friend. Beautiful work. Clean lines and exactly what they wanted. Matt pierced my ears and was fun to talk to. They each provided follow up care instructions. If you are in the Sarasota area, definitely check them out!
Great experience! Our piercing artist, Matt did a amazing job. I was quite nervous but Matt kept talking and educating us throughout the whole process and really helped to keep me feeling calm. I love my new piercing and would highly recommend, without reservation Sacred Rights!
Went in with my boyfriend and got taken care of immediately. All the guys are great and very informative. Thai did my tattoo and it came out astounding!! I didnt have the idea fully developed when I went in and Thai helped me complete it and pick the font. He listened to my ideas and added his own style to it. I absolutely LOVE it!! Best shop Ive been to and I have tried shops from GA to now FL. I will be going back to get every single one of my tattoos.... even though I live on the east coast it is definitely worth the 4 hour drive! Thanks guys
I saw Skippy. She was the best and so easy to get my ideas across to for my tattoo. Shes so kind and talented and I love my new tattoo. Great work. 10/10!!!
The staff at Sacred Arts Tattoo are great - I got my first tattoo here and Id be willing to drive all the way back to Florida to get all of my others done there too. Mike, Matt, and Rory are awesome and made the experience of really fun, while also maintaining professionalism. The facilities are clean, safe, and they do a great job explaining how to take care of your tattoo, etc. Thanks again Sacred Art!
Ive been going to mike at sacred arts for around a year now. The shop is really relaxed - and spotless. Every artist there is extremely talented, and can do a multitude of styles. They are clear and professional about describing the process that has to be carried out for the work you present them. There are years of knowledge in this shop Between everyone so any questions you have - they answer honestly from piercings and tattoos to aftercare. I absolutely recommend them especially if its your first tattoo.
Rory was extremely friendly and helpful from the first phone call I made to inquire about getting my ears repierced. Even as a walk in I was treated like a good friend and the process was as smooth as butter. I get pretty queasy around needles but Rory was very comforting and professional - I didnt realize just how badly aligned the original piercings were. Now Im all set! I would HIGHLY recommend him and the Sacred Arts team. Thank you!!
I got my first tattoo in January 2016 done by Mickey. I consulted him multiple times before the tattoo to get every detail the way I wanted it. He was open to my ideas and gave suggestions on how to improve them so it wouldnt look horrible. He was so patient, kind, resourceful, honest and to top it off an absolutely amazing artist!! He did such a great job my Aunt got a tattoo by him during tattoo fest a few months later. (She was also tattooed by Mike who is a great artist as well!). He takes time in the detail and pride in his work. The appearance of the shop made me feel comfortable as well. It was very clean, organized, well lit (so the artists could see what they were doing) and they made you feel comfortable. Overall with the many times Ive been in and out of the shop as well as during my tattoo it has been great, I definitely suggest if youre looking into a tattoo anywhere from your 1st to your 25th come to this shop and its artists! Im already planning for my next one!!!!
I honestly cannot say enough about the Sacred Rites Tattoo shop in Bradenton. Great prices and very talented & friendly artists. Mike welcomed us right when we came in, made us feel comfortable and at home. The shop was very clean and had a great vibe filled with colorful artwork. My tattoo turned out perfect and I couldnt be more happy. Thank-you so much Mike, I can see why you guys are the best in town!
Rory is AMAZING. I have several piercings from other locations and have always found the manipulation of jewelry to be somewhat uncomfortable. Tried Sacred Arts off of other reviews and VERY glad I did. Rory is so good at his craft, I never felt any discomfort at all. He did such a great job and is so much fun, I am already planning my next piercing. He will now be the ONLY piercer I ever use and the ONLY piercer I ever recommend.
So, this was my first microdermal piercing and I was extremely nervous, of course. But Matt was fantastic! He was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. I have been to a bunch of different piercers in the past and NONE made me feel as good about my experience as he did. The procedure was quick and so much more affordable than any other place I’ve been! I ABSOLUTELY recommend this place to anyone looking for a pleasant experience. I will definitely be returning for future tattoos/piercings. 10/10
This place is great and is filled with a lot of awesome energy as well as really cool and chill artists who are more than happy to work with you with what youre thinking of getting or what you may want. The work is really clean the tattoos are done in really good quality and no job is ever rushed its all done in time which is how a tattoo should be anyways and I definitely enjoy my time here. Sacred Rites Tattoo is a great shop and Im always going to go back.
I go here all the time for piercings and tattoos. Sacred Rites was where I got my first tattoo and the atmosphere is absolutely incredible. I recently went to get my nipples pierced and my piercer made the experience less awkward for me. Not to mention the process was quick and easy! I will definitely continue to go here! I currently have a tattoo appointment with Mickey who did my first tat! 20/10 would recommend to anyone and everyone.
Got my first tattoo from mike, he is one of the most talented artists I have ever met. He was patient when it came to picking the exact layout and design if my tattoo. Most places I checked out had me make an appointment give a picture and then they would call me back when ready.They are also very well priced, it was a plus that I got a discount for being military. Love the work, love the tattoo, and cant wait to come back to get another when I come back home to visit!!!
Husband and I had the pleasure of getting ink by Evan this weekend! Not only was he a great guy we love the work he did for us!Kind/fun staff, clean shop. Great experience.
A friend recommended Sacred Rites, Bradenton, to me since we would be in town for Spring Break and wanted to give my daughter an early birthday present. She knew what she wanted, where she wanted it and Justin was awesome! He explained everything and it was such an easy process! She is so happy!While we were checking in, my husband decided to get his first tattoo, total impulse! Dee had a cancellation and offered to help him find the design he wanted and he loves it!Would totally recommend this shop to anyone thinking of their first or any additional tats! Had a lot of fun, hanging with the artists, laughing with their stories... Totally a relaxing atmosphere!! Great job everyone and best of luck with this new location!!
My girlfriend and I went on a short weekend getaway to Anna Maria and I decided last minute to get a tattoo or try to at least. We spent all morning and afternoon trying to find the right place to have my tattoo done. I stumbled upon Sacred Arts and we decided to go and it was the best decision ever. I got lucky as a walk in and Mike Callaway took care of me. He was really nice and he helped me find the right size and placement of my tattoo and it came out amazing. I had a really bad experience with my first tattoo at some shop in Orlando and I was really scared to go to another tattoo artist thinking I was going to have the same experience of being treated really awful and be given attitude but Mike was awesome. We even discussed our love of Star Wars together which helped me stay a little calm while I was being tattooed. I will definitely consider him for other tattoos even if it means I have to travel 2.5 hours! (I live in Orlando) also, the shop was super clean and nice! thanks again Mike for giving me a tattoo that I’ve always wanted! You’re awesome!!
I had the best experience ever here today! Everyone was so awesome and nice. Mike did an amazing job on mine and my aunts tattoos. I would recommend Sacred Rites to anyone and will definitely be back to see them soon!
Went in for a simple ear lobe piercing and Im very glad I did! The piercing portion was quick and comfortable, and Rory did an amazing job explaining every part of the process before and after. Its clear he cares about his clients, plus everybody working there is friendly and fun to be around.
Got my first tattoo here. Skyler was great. He listened to what I wanted and his artistry was excellent. I love my tattoo! Its very symbolic and has brought me so much peace. Clean shop and everyone there is very professional!
Very clean and professional, as well as great prices and atmosphere. Came in for a lip piercing and Rory was very helpful with options, and took his time explaining the process and after care in detail. I felt very relaxed and comfortable from the moment I walked through the door. I cant wait to go back for my next piercing!
Peggy did a great job on my tattoo. Fun shop and very friendly. Would highly recommend!
Evan was amazing, he fit us in after a full day, was so nice, and super chill about the process. He did a perfect job with the design I wanted and made the whole experience lovely! Ill definitely be back!
As a business owner myself. I was very impressed with Sacred Rites Tattoo. High scores on cleanliness, professionalism, relaxed and comfortable environment, and most importantly good work ethic combined with serious talent. All of the guys make you feel like a part of the family, lots of laughter and interesting conversation. Mickey took my basic idea and turned it into a masterpiece. He has a light hand, which I appreciate, and a genuine dedication to creating a beautiful piece and making the customer happy. I highly recommend Sacred Rites without reservation.
First they are great about answering your questions and getting you taken care of in a timely manner. Im visiting from Tennessee and was very impressed. Skylar Burnham did my tattoo and he was amazing. He listened to what I want and made the process easy. The quality of the tattoo is awesome. If I lived here I would definitely be back to get more. Cant recommend them enough
Came here for my first tattoo and the guys were great! The environment was very light hearted and fun! Doug was my artist and did an amazing job! Not only did he find me a better design, he added a little spin that really made it pop! Wouldnt go anywhere else for a tattoo!
Definitely the best tattoo shop Ive stepped into. My mother and I both got piercings here, it was quick and Matt walked us through each step. Would recommend to anyone, they were very friendly and made sure everything was extremely sterile. Ill be coming back for any future piercings I get.
Came in for a spur of the moment tattoo, the shop is clean, the artists are very professional and knowledgeable. They listen to your idea and give you pointers on what they think would make it perfect. Mickey did a phenomenal job and I will definitely be coming back and doing the 4 hour drive for this level of service.
First off I want to say, immediately upon opening the door, I was greeted while everyone was hard at work. As soon as that door opens you are immediately welcomed. Everyone had their own personality but somehow blended into one whole good vibe! The whole studio was filled with positive energy. And I will be making more appointments with this studio! As for my Artist Skippy aka (The Furby Queen), I could not be anymore happy with the ink she put down. She was personable and honest with what she was comfortable doing. I wanted a traditional sticker look, and got what I came for! Skippy I will 100% be back to get your signature Furby tattoo! I loved my experience with Sacred Arts Tattoo Bradenton
Mickey is awesome and patient. He came highly recommended and I went to him for my first tattoo and was so comfortable with him that I keep going back! He designed a tattoo dedicated to my father whom passed and it is perfect!! He has a light hand and he takes his time and makes you feel at ease. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!
Matt was sweet and good looking ;)I enjoyed the service they provided, i came here to get my nipple pierced and he did a great job. The place is very sterile and i felt very comfortable. I would recommend coming here to anyone. They take their time explaining about aftercare for piercings and have good deals!!!!
Today, I had my first session of two to cover up a tattoo I have on my upper back. I have been hesitant to do this cover up for so long because I could never find the right person. Im so glad to have found Sacred Rites. My artist is Mike, who has done an incredible job so far, but all the artists seem to have great work. This will not be my last tattoo from here. They have a very clean and friendly environment. I highly recommend them. Amazing job so far!
Awesome staff and amazing art work! Went in for an appointment for 2 people getting rather simple tattoos but our artist was out for personal reasons. Thankfully the guys at Sacred Arts were still able to fit us in during a very busy day and got the tattoos done within 1 1/2 hours. Great experience for any first timers like ourselves or veterans tattooers. Already planning our next set of tattoos and plan on coming back to Sacred Arts every time.
Sacred Rites is a clean, professional, inviting place. I went in with a couple of friends for their weekend piercing special, and together we had an industrial, nose, helix and middle helix done between us. The ambiance inside is fantastic. The process was very sanitary, Matt talked us through everything (mainly because I asked what was probably an annoying amount of questions), and everything was done with the utmost care and hygiene. My middle helix is doing well a couple of days in now. Id absolutely recommend this place (and Matt) if you want a reasonably-priced piercing with top-notch practice.
Ive been coming here for almost 3 yrs now and I have always been ecstatic about the work that Mike Sanki does. He is an amazing artist! Today I just got 2 piercings by Amanda who is a great addition to the shop!
Matt did several piercings on my ears. He was very informative and friendly. I went to him because a friend recommended him . I would gladly recommend him to anyone.
I just went here tonight and got my first tattoo. Mike did it, and I highly recommend him. This shop is extremely clean and up to date on everything. I went in feeling so nervous about it, and they talked me through it and made my first experience perfect. It was nothing like I thought it was going to be. We came here from Missouri and well definitely be back for more!
Went in to be with my nephew for his first piercing. This place is AWESOME ! We are from out of town & heard of Sacred Rites. Everything we heard was correct, the whole place was so clean, with a laid back feel.Being 11, he was a bit nervous, but not enough to let us talk him out of the piercing, but upon walking in & talking with a gentleman (which was a big man, with Lots of tattoos, lol) he just relaxed.After the paperwork was all filled out, he got to go back & get his earring. The piercer Matt was patient, loving (like he was his own family), and answered ALL of the questions a 11yr old could throw at him.All of this on top of the fact that Matt has the softest, most gentle touch. It shows he loves his profession, in the way he takes pride in his self, & what he does, in giving someone an experience theyll never forget & a beautiful piece of jewelry.We were so impressed, that his mom & I also got pierced !Thanks to Matt for the great experience, & piercings that we love, you were dead on with all 3 of them! Thanks to the gentleman named Doug who greeted us & put us all at ease when we walked in the door, & last but not least, the man who hired these two gentlemen. GREAT find in those gems!
I went in for a tragus piercing from Rory today and it was amazing! He was professional but made me feel super comfortable. He had the piercing done within 5 minutes and I felt nothing, even when he put the jewelry in. The actual shop is clean, welcoming and very fair priced. It was definitely a 10/10 experience and I will be going again if I decide on more piercings. Thank you Rory!
Doug did an amazing job embellishing a very old ankle tattoo! Nice clean shop. Creative, great color, almost pain free! The guys here have an awesome sense of humor to boot. We will be back. Well worth the drive from Tampa!
If I could give more then 5 stars I would! Best Tattoo & piercing shop, hands down. It seriously doesn’t get any better than Sacred Arts. Mike Csanki just recently did a beautiful sternum tattoo on me, and designed it at the time of my appointment with me. I wont let anyone else tattoo me from this point on. Professional, amazing work, and kept me laughing the entire time. Thanks Mike, you rock!
I was nervous about taking my 7 year old (and two younger, energetic siblings) into a tattoo shop. But I read so many reviews of local piercing places and this seemed like the best around. They were right. This place could not have been cleaner. Matthew was really professional and quick. An hour afterward, my daughter said she forgot her ears were pierced because they didnt hurt at all.
I got my very first tattoo done today by Mike Csanki. My experience was awesome from the moment I walked in. I was nervous and he made me feel very comfortable and was very kind. It turned out exactly the way I wanted it to and I am extremely pleased with the result and the process. Everything was clean and he was quick and precise. I actually had a lot of fun getting this done today, and I was excited to do it but also very nervous so I was pleasantly surprised at how easy the process turned out to be. I would completely recommend them and I will be going back to them if I ever decide to get any more tattoos.
I got my first tattoo here after many recommendations from friends locally. I had very little idea of what to expect and my artist Mickey made me feel instantly comfortable. The end result is awesome. I couldn’t have thought up a better experience if I tried. There’s a reason that this shop is so well reviewed!
My first experience was an industrial piercing done for my birthday and the guy doing it was so funny and I was completely relaxed. Then I got a tattoo done (my third) October of 2015 and I love love loved Chris, who was my artist. The shop was relaxed and clean and sterile. You could tell everyone was serious about what they were doing but still very personable. I will definitely be back.
The boys Andrew and Matt that were there when I went in were great! Both are friendly and funny. Im definitely going back! I LOVE my tattoo that Andrew was cool enough to do, even though he doesnt usually tattoo on a persons fingers. But I think he loved the Forever Touching Penises tat he gave me. Thanks again guys!
Thank you Doug for your excellent work on my tattoo. You made arrangements to get this done for me in time for my Flight and even came in early to do so. I have received countless compliments on my new tattoo and my favorite one is the tattoo is totally you! You are the best Doug!!I will be back coming back! Thank you for such great customer service and the awesome art work.
Amazing shop! Friendly, clean and great artist. We travel from North Carolina to have our work done there. Skyler Burnham is wicked talented. I brought my niece in for her first ever tattoo. Skyler was extremely patient and took his time explaining everything to her. He made special arrangements to accommodate us due to our travel. I wouldnt go any place else!
Wouldn’t recommend going in there for a consultation. The guy spoke to me like I didn’t know what I was talking about and how it wouldn’t work in the placement I showed. Ended up going to a much better shop and got exactly what I wanted and turned out perfectly in the placement.Went for a piercing before and I would recommend Rory though. He does a great job making you feel comfortable and not as nervous before a piercing.
I am so pleased with my artwork. Mickey was my artist and I highly recommend him. He’s fine two pieces for my husband and both are very precise and neat. The shop is very professional and clean. The owner takes pride in his shop and it shows. We have plans to come back!
My experience with Sacred Rites BRADENTON, Florida has been excellent.. Mickey J has done an awesome job designing and tattooing me with my 2 step cover up tattoo. He is very professional, detailed and personable. The facility is clean and all of the staff are dedicated to providing up most quality customer service!!
Mike, at Sacred Arts, continues to deliver every time. Excellent vision of personal ideas and impeccable skills and talent. Moreover, the good vibe at the establishment makes time go by fast, regardless of how big or how long your art might take. Super professional artists overall.I wont post any pictures here, but you can check out their IG and see all the photos there.
Currently working on an 80s & 90s cartoon full-sleeve tattoo with Mickey. I couldn’t ask for a more clean, professional, and fun environment. He is excellent at piecing tattoos together and making them look fantastic. I look forward to each appointment for this reason. There’s a reason this place is rated so well. If you are serious about getting a tattoo then look no further than Sacred Arts.
I travel down all the way from SE Georgia to go to Scared Rites. I wouldn’t go anywhere else for my tattoos. It’s nice and clean. The artists are all amazing. You feel so welcome as soon as you walk in. Peter is such an amazing artist. He’s very detail oriented and will make sure you’re 100% happy with every detail before he starts. I highly recommend Sacred Rites!
I got my nose pierced here about a year ago. Great, friendly, and professional artists and piercer. He explained everything thoroughly made sure I completely understood what he was going to do. Took his time and answered all of the questions we had, assured us it wasnt as bad as I was expecting. I have a pretty bad fear of surgical needles due to previous had experiences and he was very calm and reassuring. He had my friend and I laughing while doing our piercings. Would definitely recommend if you want a piercing they are the place to go!!
Went above and beyond for me! I am a durable veteran and when the elevator didnt work they carried me up the stairs. And the artwork turned out to be exactly what I wanted!!
I love this shop. all of the guys are super friendly and make you feel welcome. my husband and I get all of our work from Doug Hatter. We get stopped every day because people want to know who does our amazing work. Everyone has a great portfolio and ive seen some awesome work done while i have been in the shop. the owner takes pride in his shop and it shows by the cleanliness, talent, and professionalism of the artists. your tattoo is a life long commitment...it shouldnt be taken lightly. if you want something you wont regret, this is the place to go.
Had my tattoo done here with Doug and hes amazing! I had a portrait done of David Bowie from The Labyrinth and it looks fantastic, So real! The shop is super clean and Doug was very good with me. This was a big piece for me and he was very nice and understanding when I was uncomfortable. 👍👍
My sister and I came here for to get our cartilages pierced for the very first time. Matt was friendly and very informative. He also has an eye for detail and made sure the placement of our piercings was best suited for the anatomy of our ears. Would recommend!
Mickey was the guy who did my first tattoo. He was supper supportive and really nice. He kept checking to see if I was doing alright. His work was phenomenal! I highly suggest this tattoo shop!Also the pizza was delicious🍕🍕🍕
Ive been to tattoo shops all over North America, but this place is by far - the dopest shop Ive ever been to!!! Dont get me wrong...Im not all totally tatted up, in fact Ive got exactly 3 tattoos and 2 piercings. Unlike drunken frat boys though, Im a 40 year old woman and I take my time looking around for exactly the right art, the exact artist to do the job, and the exact shop to trust with this task. I mean, this is going to be with me longer than my first husband, lol! Im happy to say that I dont need to travel the globe searching any longer...Ive found the shop that I will trust with all my needs from now on! Mike, Matt, Mickey, Doug and Ella are so friendly, you hardly know youre in a tattoo shop. The place is so well-lit and so clean that it really shakes loose from the oft-expected dungeon-like experience we all expect from a tattoo parlor. My piercing was virtually pain-free (and Im a total baby) and Matt was totally patient. The information he gave for follow-up care and infection prevention was thorough and clear. Im definitely looking forward to getting my next tattoo here, very soon. The only problem I have now, is figuring out what to get...I thought I knew what I wanted, but after looking through the ample portfolios and examples of their prior work, I cant decide. Their art is OUTRAGEOUSLY amazing!!! Ill be back very soon!
We came in for piercings for my sisters birthday. Rory was super friendly and outgoing! He gave us clear instructions about care and was super quick! Best piercing experience I’ve ever had, and I have 7 piercings. Highly recommend!!
I’ve had 6 piercings done by Rory—Tragus, Conch, a double helix and a forward helix, and then removed and redid the conch because I changed my mind about the placement of it. Every one of these experiences was phenomenal. I’ve been in many times to have piercings checked and jewelry changed and Rory has always been very kind and attentive. I also called once when one of my earrings came out and because it was after hours I had to put it back in myself, which irritated the piercing site—I called and Matt stayed late to wait for me to come in and get it looked at. The shop is always clean, and everyone in there has been nothing but nice. I am terrified of needles and Rory has always made me feel calm and comfortable, and all of my piercing looked awesome—even the one I removed. I would definitely recommend this place for any of your piercing needs.
In doing my extensive research for the best place to go for body piercings, I found Matt at Sacred Rites Tattoo in Bradenton, FL. He went above and beyond my expectations with his professionalism, experience, cleanliness and hes pretty funny too!! Im so glad I had my ears re-pierced with Matt....and with a needle. NEVER would I want to get piercings done with a piercing gun like I did when I was 16. Do your own research but trust me when I say theres no other place Id go, it was perfect! Next up...my first tattoo!! Thanks again Matt!
Went in there for my first tattoo today while on vacation & I could not have asked for a better experience! The workers were extremely welcoming and helped with the process. Not to mention, the shop was clean and had a very homey vibe. Mickey gave me an amazing tattoo and I am definitely coming back next time I am in Bradenton!
I cant praise this shop enough. Clean, fun and easy going environment, filled with extremely talented artists. I saw Doug for a floral piece and couldnt be happier with how the tattoo turned out and how comfortable I felt during the process. I look forward to having more work done at this shop!!!
I recently took my teenage daughter here to get some ear piercing and it was an amazing experience. They made us feel so comfortable and welcomed. My daughter was so nervous going in and Rory got her calm and explained everything so perfectly. He did a great job doing 5 piercings and I dont think she would of done so well if it wasnt for him.The shop was so clean and the art work everywhere was awesome. I would highly recommend getting your piercings and tattoos there We didnt get any tattoos but from what I saw all the artists do amazing work.
The guys at Sacred Rites Tattoo were amazing! Talented, fun, artistic, professional and honest! Their work was super cool 5000! We searched high and low for clean and professional tattoo artists to ink us while on vacation! These fun guys fulfilled all of our needs! Mickey did the ink and was amazing! Matt did the piercings and was phenominal! Thanks guys for a high-quality first experience!
I went in today and was able to get the EXACT tattoo I wanted from Mickey. The price was more than fair. The staff is amazing. They kept me laughing the whole time. I was comfortable there. That doesn’t mean that they were unprofessional though. Every detail of the process was explained to me from start to finish. This is my 4th tattoo and I learned so much today that I didn’t know.Not only did I get my tattoo, I also got my nose pierced by Rory. This guy is so sweet! I was extremely nervous but he was chill, calm and confident. He explained it step by step and it was over with in a flash. He explained how to keep it clean and help it heal. He explained how and why most piercings get infected and how I can avoid those things.The store was clean, every step was sanitized and the atmosphere is unbeatable. These guys are true professionals and I’m never getting a tattoo from anyone else again.
From the moment i opened the door the guys gave me a pleasant welcome and was very curtious. I never felt anxious once during the entire procedure and was given full instructions how the procedure would take place play by play and he never did a thing until i was sure everything was perfectly okay and in the right placing for me. Super nice and great personality. I got the conch piercing in my ear and i never even felt it! I was amazed it was over in a blink of an eye! I am planning to go back and get more for sure! This guy is great!!!!!
Best tattoo shop around ! All around the best shop in Florida in my opinion .Great artist and the piercer is awesome as well. Been going to Mike for years now for my tattoos. Always a great experience every time I get tattooed. If anyone ever asks me who to go to I refer them to sacred rites because its the best choice.
First time at Sacred arts (usual place I get piercings doesnt do snug piercing). Very good location, and the inside is very nice, clean, and lots of fun art on the walls to look at. My piercer Amanda was great, thorough, and quick. I will be going there again to get my next piercing (have at least 2 more in mind).
Very clean shop , super nice staff ! Rory did my nose piercing and it looks amazing , barely hurt too! He also explained everything and calmed down my anxieties! definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants piercings or tats done! hopefully will get my first tattoo here eventually as well :)
The best shop around! My wife and I got tattooed here and she got pierced. Mike killed it on both our tattoos and Rory is quick and professional with the piercing.Pro tip- get in touch with them and make appointments plenty of time in advance! They’re pretty booked up and can’t always take walk-ins.
I got a body piercing here from Matt, and he was very kind and professional. He made it a really relaxing environment and could sense my nervousness and made sure to make some jokes to ease the nerves. Great environment and great people would highly recommend!
I came in to get my very first piercing and immediately I was satisfied with the place. Everything was organized and clean, I got immediate service, and everyone was super nice and friendly. After I got my piercing I received an email and a summary on the aftercare for my piercing; which I find really helpful.I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who’s thinking of getting a piercing or tattoo.
Awesome place!! Cleanest tattoo shop around hands down. The artists are extremely talented and courteous Id recommend them to anyone looking to get work done. Great customer service goes a long way these days. I wasnt surprised at all to see all of these great reviews.
These guys are the best!!! Skyler gave me great advice for the design for my first tattoo. He was very professional and knowledgeable. I finished an Ironman and came here for the traditional tattoo after the event (FYI the other athletes who got tattoos elsewhere had red and swollen tattoos and mine was not red or swollen at all!). I thought it was a one and done (for my Ironman too!), but enjoyed the experience so much I am thinking of what to do next. Kudos to you all, everyone in the shop is nice and helpful. Dont go anywhere else seriously!!!
Went in to Sacred Arts after my appointment got canceled at another shop. My husband and I met with one of the owners and talked about what we both wanted. He had suggested their new artist Daniel and we left our number for him to call when he got in. He called as we was on our way in and talked with Daniel and set our appointments for the following week. He sent us design ideas prior to out appointments and they were amazing. I got my tattoo last night and I am thoroughly impressed with the shop and Daniels work. Thank you again.
I got a nostril piercing by Amanda and she did such a great job! I was unsure about which jewelry I wanted and she made sure to show me all of the options and find the perfect one. When she did the piercing everything was super sanitary and clean. The piercing itself was quick and it is already healing well. Highly recommend
Came in for a peircing. Was kinda nervous but Matt was great. He walked me through everything and explained it all in ways that were easy to understand. He gave really clear post piercing instructions. He was also really sweet and friendly. Shop was also really nice and clean.
Sacred Rites is a very welcoming place and very chill. They can accommodate you with just about anything. Very sanitary as well. I’ll definitely be going back for all of my tattoos and piercings. Mike Csanki did my tattoo and I’m very happy with the outcome, absolutely perfect.
Today was my first day ever being in this shop. I came in for some piercings, waiting about an hour, but that was due to the piercing special they had going on today! The piercer and staff were very friendly, offered water, seating. My actual piercing experience was great as well, I am very happy with the services I received and will definitely be a returning customer in the future!
Matt did a great job on my Daughters navel piercing. The atmosphere is great and really enjoyed the experience. Went to a couple other studios around the area and didnt get the vibe we got here!!! Great pricing and great people!!!
Thank you Mr. Callaway for doing such an amazing job on my first tattoo! Michael did a great job at making me feel very comfortable and did incredible work. Over all was a wonderful experience. Highly recommend this place!
In the process of getting an Egyptian themed sleeve done by Mike and absolutely loving the work he has put in so far! The shop is super clean and an ultimate pleasure to be in. The guys are all extremely friendly and make you feel very comfortable at all times. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for great quality work with amazing artist. I will never go to another tattoo shop again after coming here! THE BEST SHOP IN MANATEE AND SARASOTA COUNTIES HANDS DOWN! If you want the best you have to come see the best! 👌🏼💉
Absolutely amazing! Got my first tattoo here, and I have got to say, they are not only among the best people I have ever met, they are amazing artists. They got back to me within an hour of contact at 2am for gods sake! (which I felt really bad for, so try to stay within normal hours lol). Seriously, dont go anywhere else for your piercing/tattoo desires!
Ari was great helping me with my first tattoo. She made sure to make me feel relaxed and worked with me to make it look perfect. Went to her for my next one and it was the same great experience. Will definately be coming back here.
Great place. Very clean, on time, great pricing, and just good people. Skyler fixed a tattoo I had done by an artist who never finished. Looks great now and cant wait to get the rest of my tattoos done by him. Magically tattoo didnt hurt at all like there were magic spells under the seats....I will definitely be referring people. Thanks again
I was tattooed 17/4/17 by Mickey. The design is beautiful and he did a great job, not only on the tattoo itself but also in making the experience relaxed and enjoyable. Talented artists, good people, good atmosphere. Im completely in love with my tattoo will definitely be going back in the future.
Visiting from Jersey and my best friend and I wanted to get inked from a reputable tattoo shop. She has been checking out Sacred Rites and she was spot on. The shop is very clean and the artists are professional and was nice enough to take us as a walk in. Thank you Mickey for doing our tattoos. Hope to get more work done from you when I come back to Florida.
Micky was absolutely awesome! He even took the time to consult with me on the next few tattoos that I want and helping me fix current ones I already have! I will definitely be coming back and I would highly recommend this shop to absolutely anyone! :)
Mickey was my artist and did an awesome job. He was thorough in making sure I got the exact tattoo that i wanted. The place was clean and welcoming for a first time or someone that has tattoos already. If I ever get another tattoo it will be here.
Mike had done 3 piercings for me. He was extremely helpful with aftercare. Minimal pain and bleeding. The shop was clean and everyone seemed like good friends.
Rory and Mike K made me and my twin daughters feel comfortable getting our first tattoos by answering all of our questions and assured us that they used the safest and highest quality Ink. They even stayed after hours and created exactly what we wanted. The best part was we had a great time laughing with these two talented artists. No issues with the after care and no regrets. Thanks guys!
Great experience! Exceeded my expectations. I got my belly button pierced and was very nervous but Matt was encouraging and so quick! It didnt hurt at all and was done in seconds. Definitely coming back :)
Went in today to start my sleeve with Skyler. He was awesome and designed a badass tattoo with just some suggestions of what I would like. The rest of the staff was great too. Very personable and had great conversations the whole day with everyone there. Can’t wait to get back in there and get rolling again with the rest of my sleeve.
Mike the owner did an amazing job with my Tattoo! He squeezed us in while on spring break! He took his time getting the details right and helped me breathe through my pains of being a baby! Highly recommend checking him out with these talents!
Amanda was very professional! Experienced, clean, and made me feel comfortable and confident being at the shop. Definitely my best experience compared to other Artist. Will be back when I need more work done ❤️ Thanks!
I was inked yesterday 11/1/17 by Mickey Johnson who did an amazing piece of art on my forearm. Mic pays close attention to detail takes his time while working with his customers.The shop was modern, very clean and organized. The owner and other staff where really cool. Had lots of laughs there. Great place!
I got my first tattoo today and it was a wonderful experience. The place was clean and great pricing. All the staff were friendly, but Daniel was very professional and is great at what he do; he hooked me up with my first tattoo. :) I 100% recommend Sacred Arts Tattoo in Bradenton.
I have been planning to get a tattoo for quite some time but I was afraid to, because I have needle phobia. But I trusted Mickey right from the beginning. He really took off the edge and the whole experience was relaxed and awesome. Some discomfort is all I really felt because he was really careful and thorough. I couldnt be happier with my tattoo. Highly recommend this place-all their artists are friendly and award winning.
Amazing. Everyone here has great energy, definitely a lot of fun. The shop is clean, comfortable. Doug did my tattoo, hes SO TALENTED! Everything I wanted was done plus more. Couldnt ask for a more beautiful tattoo! Already planning my next visit. Thanks DOUG!!!
Came in on a short notice and I spoke with Doug on my design. He was able to fit me in within a few days and his work is phenomenal. The shop as a whole is a very relaxed and chill environment. I am very pleased with the work and when I get the chance, I will be returning!
Mike Callaway did an awesome job on my tattoo, and my best friends as well. The whole time we were there we felt comfortable and welcome. It was an all around great environment and the customer service was great.
Sacred Rite provides unmatched levels of professionalism, quality, and incredibly unique work. The pricing is not only fair but competitive. The artists are dedicated,hard working, and flexible. Only being in town temporarily Doug was willing and able to complete an 8 hour tattoo in one session . Im in love with the piece he has created and will be flying back for any future tattoos.
Bob, the tattoo artist, did a full neck tattoo and filled in my sleeve tattoo. Excellent artist...very knowledgeable and skilled !! Everyone who sees the work comments on how nice it is. The shop is friendly and simply a fun place to get tattood or pierced !! Highly recommend !!!
Not your average tattoo shop customer. In fact I had visited a shop in Sarasota that treated me like a lost old woman. Not here! So professional and welcoming. I only got a piercing so I cant speak for the tattoo service but everyone there seemed nice. Not for a second did I feel out of place. Rory was amazing! Dont think twice, this is the place to go!
Ive been going to the Port Charlotte location for years and couldnt be happier with the staff and cleanliness of the shop as whole. Recently I went with a friend who wanted to try out the new Bradenton location and I was amazed that they found another group of amazing artist while managing to continue with the cleanest shop around. I recommend Sacred Rites to anyone I know! The biggest tattoo decision I now have is which one of the two shops I want to go to.
Mike Callaway got me in for two small tattoos with big meaning for me. It was quick, easy and fairly painless. He was kind and professional! I will recommend Sacred Rites to anyone looking for a shop and will definitely return for my next piece, also!
Went to Sacred Rites to set an appointment for a tattoo that I have been wanting for a while. When I went in, Mickey assisted me right away. He took the time to see what I wanted and made sure it was exactly how I pictured it to be. He drew it up right there and ended up being able to tattoo me. Best experience I have ever had at a tattoo shop, Im in love with my new tattoo!! I couldnt have asked for a better experience.
Awesome crew at Sacred Rites Tattoo in Bradenton, very professional and friendly. I would definitely recommend any one of these artists to get tattooed by. If you want quality work or piercings this is the place to go to for sure. Ive been tattooed by their artist Doug Hatter and pierced there as well. I couldnt be happier! :)
I have never had a better piercing experience than at Sacred Rites! I learned so much about proper piercing here. I came to get my ears pierced and it didnt hurt at all! I would really recommend Sacred Rites for any piercings you plan on getting. They will really take care of you here. I will definitely be coming back in the future.
Very professional, Excellent work from Artist Bob on a Japanese Irezumi Style Tattoo! Will have all my work done here if possible!
Had my tattoo yesterday by Doug. Excellent job and great design, everyone loves how great it came out. Because of conflict with schedules he came on his day off to do it; that is above and beyond customer service. Local is great, perfectly clean, friendly environment. Highly recommended. Thank you guys.
Awesome place with a friendly staff! If you need a piercing this is the place to go. Matt is a master at piercing. He Takes his time with each client and makes sure you know exactly what’s going on each step of the process even aftercare. I highly recommend this shop.
