Keepsake Tattoo

When I first moved to the Syracuse area this shop popped up and I have been coming here ever since. I’ve had 8 tattoos done at this shop (so far!) Everyone here is so friendly and the shop environment is really welcoming, clean and fun. They always have tons of flash to choose from too which is nice if you feel like getting a tattoo but are unsure what you want! 10/10 recommend.

Just got a tattoo done here and had the best experience from start to finish. The tattoo shop is super clean and the perfect size. The staff are not only super friendly but also knowledgeable and very educated and talented in their field. I love the tattoo that Drew gave me and I cant wait to get more work done! 10/10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Absolutely obsessed with Keepsake. Incredible artists, and an incredible vibe throughout the shop. They welcomed me as a walk in and immediately made me feel comfortable and safe with them and their work. Got my third and fourth tattoos from here today, and I couldn’t be happier with the process, results, and pricing. Thank you Keepsake!!!

Josh is an amazing artist and was super giving me my Snoopy themed tattoo. First class from moment I messaged him on Instagram to getting the tattoo. Highly recommend.

I was a walk in and wanted a tattoo of an autograph on my hand. From the beginning, I could tell that Drew was extremely knowledgeable and had a lot of experience doing tattoos. Drew was so patient as it took me almost an hour to figure out the exact placement that the tattoo would be done. He never rushed me or got annoyed at all. When it came time to do the tattoo, it did not hurt at all and he periodically asked if I was doing okay. The tattoo came out perfect and it was exactly what I wanted. The other employees were also very friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend coming here for a tattoo. On their website, they have a gallery of each artists work and they are all extremely talented. Thank you again Drew!!

I had an appointment with Tori today, it was one of the best experiences I’ve had while getting a tattoo. She was very accommodating and took the time with me to craft my mental image while still making the tattoo uniquely her own. She has a true love for tattooing and that came through in our conversation and the work she did. The shop was very clean and had a comfortable environment. The whole staff was very welcoming while visiting the shop. I will definitely be returning again soon

Keepsake is THE place to book in the Syracuse area. The shop was incredibly welcoming and clean, all the staff made me feel comfortable and in good hands immediately. I had the pleasure of working with Tori, who responded to my inquiry and booked me within 2 weeks and worked with me thoroughly to make sure I loved the design. I can’t recommend these guys enough!

I’ve gone to Josh at Keepsake for two different tattoos, one I designed and the other of his creation. I love both pieces and couldnt be happier with how they turned out. i have also received many compliments on the colorwork Josh did… i knew it looked good, but skills are skills. This shop is super friendly and welcoming and there were good vibes through the entire experience. definitely stop by this gem!! I will be returning to fulfill all of my tattoo dreams!

I love these guys. Ive gotten tattoos from them a couple times now, including touch ups and have always had a great experience with them. Theyre super accommodating and patient. Very cool, nice people that know what theyre doing!

Tori!! I absolutely LOVE my tattoo. It represents my late boyfriend perfectly. You were professional, provided a clean, safe environment, and I have never had a tattoo that was painless. Thank you!

I love this shop. Ive been tattooed by multiple artists and have had nothing but positive experiences. Everyone is super chill and sweet. Great people! Amazing artists! Ill go back over and over

All my tattoos are done by Thad and Josh - I wouldn’t go anywhere else! The shop is clean, comfortable, and all of the artists are extremely nice. All of the tattoos I’ve had done are bold and exactly what I wanted, and still look great months and years after healing. :)

Josh did an amazing job on our matching sister tattoos. He listened to our ideas and drew up a couple plans to make sure we loved it. He talked about tattoos he was working on, conventions, and art while he worked. The shop itself was clean, followed all precautions for safety, covered after care, and was visually interesting with the original flash art, art, and decor. Would definitely book with Josh again, but the other artists work can be seen on their page too and are also talented.

What a great shop. I worked with Tori from start to finish. I sent her a few ideas and she turned them into something that worked perfectly as a tattoo. The shop is clean, organized, and everyone there was friendly and helpful. Can’t wait to go to Tori and Keepsake again in the future.

I have gotten tattoos from both Thad and Josh and they are amazing. The shop has a good atmosphere too which makes it such a great experience. I highly recommend Keepsake and the artists here!

Definitely recommend this shop. I was tattooed here on back to back weeks. Once as a walk in and once with an appointment. I was tattooed by Drew and Josh. Both amazing artists. Everyone here is super friendly and the shop is clean. I will be back again for more

Best spot around. Ive been tattooed in all the shops in the area and this is the one I choose again and again.All of the artists are top notch and I have at least one tattoo from each. There is no sketchy feeling here, there is no gatekeeping, there is no stress. They are very professional and not on tattooer time (no sitting outside for 45 minutes wondering if someone is gonna show up). The shop is clean and bright and everyone is always genuinely happy to be making cool tattoos. Communication is always clear and easy.If you were to ask me my top 5 recommended shops in CNY this would be 1 through 5. You will not be disappointed.

Best place to get your first tattoo! All the artists are so nice and do amazing work! Will definitely be going back in the future for more.

Awesome place to get a tattoo! The shop is cool as hell! Wicked chill vibes when you walk in. Thad is the artist of my choice there and he doesn’t disappoint. The man is super talented very compassionate for how you are with getting tattoos! If your in the need of a great place to go this is your spot!

First time getting any work. Very clean and well maintained shop. Drew and Thad keep a comfortable and chill environment which made for a great experience

I’d recommend these guys any day. Walked in without an appointment and was on the table getting my tattoo within 30 minBoth tattoos I got done were exactly what I wanted and pain was minimalI’ll be coming back for so many more!

Such an incredible shop; truly the most welcoming and talented artists in Syracuse. I have only worked with Tori and Drew thus far, but I know I’ll be working with Thad and Josh someday soon. Tori’s soft line work and stunning detail is unmatched in CNY and possibly the best in the Northeast. Drew has a rare ability to bring a refreshingly creative approach to traditional-style tattoos. Keepsake is my go-to shop and should be yours too!

Had such a fun experience with Tori!! She’s incredibly professional and did a phenomenal job with my tattoos. The whole staff keeps the experience really fun and I loved the atmosphere very much. Will be back for every tattoo from here on out

I have had many tattoos done here and I always look forward to my next visit. If you are looking to get a quality tattoo in a friendly, clean environment, then you should look no further!

These folks are a fun bunch, great artists and they keep their shop in tip top shape. Definitely worth stopping by if you’re in the Syracuse area!

I have been feeling completely powerless in my ability to reconcile with and help my daughter get the help she needs. She ran away from home 4 weeks ago. I decided I needed some sort of permanent reminder that no matter what, she will always be my little girl. And that despite how it may appear right in this moment, there is still hope for her to recover and have an amazing future. I quickly designed a tattoo idea while on the road with my son. I did a random google search and discovered Keepsake Tattoo. It turned out to be a quaint little shop that happily accepted walk ins. Josh and Thad were so kind to me. They listened to my story and took the time to squeeze me in between appointments. Josh sketched out my design, and made sure it was absolutely perfect in size and placement before the tattooing process. I couldn’t be more pleased with the end result. Sometimes we have to be spontaneous. Thank you so much Josh!

I absolutely love this shop. Thad and Drew are such talented artists and I love the laid back & comforting atmosphere of the shop. I 100% recommend getting some ink from here.

Very comfortable, welcome, and good tattoo work. I’ll definitely come more for any tattoo I would like done.

I love this shop! I followed two of the guys from another shop and the new place is amazing! The guys are all really chill, and super kind! As a lady, Ive never once felt uncomfortable at this shop or around any of the artists. Theyre highly communicative, honest and fair! I have at least 7 tats now from two of these artists and Ill keep coming back! Solid work, solid atmosphere, 10/10 recommend! If youre Syracuse based, this shop is absolutely worth the drive, plus Fayetteville is beautiful

First timer here! My husband and I got our tattoos done by Josh. Great experience! SUPER clean and professional. Overall very happy!

The best shop around by far, super welcoming and friendly. Thad is an amazing artist and all of his work has healed perfectly for me. If your looking to get a tattoo in CNY this is the place to go!

Over the last year I have received a Tattoo from each one of the artists that work there. Thad, Drew, and Josh are all hardworking, trustworthy dudes who give solid good-priced quality tattoos. I would 10/10 recommend Keepsake

Came to this area for a weekend trip…ended up getting my first tattoo here! It’s so welcoming and Josh did amazing work! Definitely recommend and I’d come here again.

I had an awesome experience. Josh was very accommodating and gentle while tattooin. He did great line work and provided suggestions that really made the tattoo pop. Ill definitely be back soon to get more work done !

Thad is nothing short of an amazing artist and consumate professional. He took a very poorly done tattoo and turned it into a beautiful work of art. His work is so incredibly beautiful and sets him apart. I am so grateful we found Thad, I thought it would never be fixed. I cannot recommend Keepsake Tattoo enough, I wish we found it sooner. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

A friend of mine told me about her experience at keepsake tattoo and i decided to do a walk in for a small name tattoo . The environment was super welcoming and I felt very comfortable. I am very pleased with my experience and can’t wait to get more work done .

The was my first time getting work done at Keepsake Tattoo. The studio is very clean and all of the staff were very talented, friendly and professional. I wanted something small and feminine, and work that Thad did for me was simple and beautiful. I highly recommend this business.

My wife and I went for walk ins. It was her first tattoo, and Drew answered all her questions and helped to put her mind at ease. We’ll definitely be going back!

Amazing place and amazing artists! Clean, fun, and their work is top notch! Everyone has their tattoo guy/place and I have definitely found mine! Step out of the city and come to the suburbs!

Couldn’t have had a better experience! Josh, the veggiewizard, was able to fit me in with short notice and made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process. He does great work and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome!

At age 68 I got my first tattoo with Thad at Keepsake and I am very pleased. He was very kind and patient as well as being a talented artist. The atmosphere is super clean , calming and pleasant. I will go back for sure! Thank you Thad.

Walk-ins welcomed (always advise calling ahead just to be safe). Artists are personable and do amazing work. Had Andrew B. yesterday and he was awesome

Got this rad cowgirl tat from my girl Tori. Super friendly environment, everyone there was so welcoming. Tori was awesome to hang with and we had a lot of fun.

Thadd, Drew and Josh are awesome! They are all experienced, friendly, and fun. I highly recommend this shop, I live out of state but still come home to get tattooed by them!

Neat little shop, friendly towards walk-ins, respectful and knowledgeable artist. Drew Bowman had really cool original flash art.
