Aaron runs a beautiful shop, clean, colorful with something always to look at, the view is always entertaining and fun, overlooking the bayfront (great spot for people watching) Hes always set to put you at ease and comfortable. His tattoos are diligently kept clean, are always so crisp and detailed with the aftercare and healing process successful ✨️ Im new to tattoos and have been back several times for more. Hes never judged, ridiculed or made me feel silly about the tattoos Ive chosen. Always a fun time being in the shop!
Aaron was amazing! When scheduling my appointment for 3 tattoos he found out we were driving in from out of town so he stayed late to make sure we could get them done. The tattoo turned out great and the experience was amazing! Thank you Aaron!!
I’ve been going to Aaron for almost 9 years and every tattoo I’ve received from him has beyond my expectations. He’s a great artist, his shop is always clean and has a good vibe, I’m always met with kindness. He’s the only artist I trust these days to tattoo me.
Aaron was very intricate with every detail. He listened to my story about my tattoo being a symbol of overcoming darkness and rising above instead of taking my own life. He is so wholesome and an absolute pleasure to work with. We already have plans for my next visit from STL to Newport to turn it into a half sleeve. Go see aaron and you wont be disappointed 👏

10/10 Recommended. Aaron is spot on in realizing just how you want your tattoo. Skilled creatively as a phenomenal artist, his technical work is incredible and hes very gentle with the tattoo gun. The tattoos he does for me are always perfect and the best works Ive seen! Aarons also just a fun guy to hang out with. Been going here many years and will for many more.
Went for the 4th time to see Aaron, he never disappoints!!! He a true artist with skill. I cant wait to go back again in the future. He is my new go to guy for all my tattoo needs. I have had other artists but none like him. He is very reasonable on prices!The cleanest, most sanitized shop Ive seen. Clean is a huge factor for me. He does not take short cuts on cleanliness ❤
Aaron is an amazing artist! He accommodated me and three others for a last-minute appointment. Super positive and fun to talk to! The place is sanitary and clean. I would definitely return and highly recommend!
I am a professional artist with over thirty years experience. I have personally watched Aarons career grow, as his art improves with every tattoo he does. Aaron, is an inspiration to all artists and Promotes the desire to be better.
Our family has been getting inked by Aaron the owner for about 13 / 14 years now, we drive from Thurston OR to get inked by him. Hes an incredible artist and always goes above and beyond when it comes to your tattoo experience. His shop is clean and the environment comfortable. Not to mention always good tunes and conversations happening. Thankful we stumbled upon him years ago.
The only place anyone in my family will get tattooed! The shop is clean, organized and easy to get comfortable in. The owner, Aaron is the best! He has been tattooing my family for 10+ years and the only person we will ever go to. He is so talented, kind and always willing to put in the extra time to make sure his work is exactly what you pictured. He can make any idea come to fruitation! We love Bayview Tattoo!
I had the best experience with my first ever tattoo definitely recommend this place he was very gentle and friendly

Aaron genuinely cares about his clients, their health and happiness with the finished body art. A wonderful experience, I look forward to coming back here for more Mind Blowing body art!!!!
Aaron made our experience great, he designed the perfect tattoo. His shop is clean, comfortable, and is in a great location. Everyone there was super friendly.
This is place is incredible! Aaron is an outstanding artist, does exactly what you ask, very patient, kind and comfortable to be around. He makes the experience personal and is quick yet diligent. I will only come to this shop in the future for my body art. The shop is clean, easy to get to, great music and cool vibe.
3 of us wanted in for a last minute girls trip tattoo. Aaron was able to squeeze us in and we were so grateful. Hes easy to work with, patient, funny and a great artist. His shop is so cozy and prices were great. We will be going back to him every year when we do our annual trip. If you go dont forget to buy a tshirt or hoodie as a Newprt souvenir! We all bought hoodies and they are great quality.
I was so excited to come here with my boyfriend to get his tattoo done. The vibes were really good when we walked in. He got a small tattoo of Roman numeral with the apprentice working, and the tattoo looks okay so far (we just got it done) but he was holding the needle and asked my boyfriend to move and got my boyfriend in the hand with the gu. And the needle and left a mark on it. I think it’s gonna fade away because it was at super deep and it wasn’t a lot of ink but it hurt and he didn’t mention again when we were paying and I was sure he would at least apologize. I know he is learning and I can be understanding of it but it could have caused a big infection or cross contamination and it could have been a bigger deal. I am upset with the lack of recognition with his mistake and my boyfriend is very upset with that mark on his hand.
The owner is a real genuine guy. Great tattoos at a fair price and a nostalgic studio.
Aaron does awesome work. An cares so much about the people he’s tattooing. 10/10 recommend!!!
Amazing attention to detail. What can I say. Ive had 3 tattoos done there. Each one better then the next. 🤘🤘
Aaron is hands down the easiest tattoo artist to work with. He got me in same day and whipped out a beautiful piece of work. He allows you to take breaks if you need, and will talk to you during the session. I felt in control of how I wanted my tattoo to look and my comfort level. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone looking for quality artwork !!
Best tattoo shop on the Oregon coast! Aaron is the best in the business and is always a pleasure to chat with.
5 stars is not enough. 4 of us walked in asking for tattoos without an appointment at the end of the day, and Aaron didnt even think twice about saying lets get you taken care of! He was so patient with us. It was such a great experience! Thank you so much
10/10 would recommend. Aaron is always a joy and delight. The atmosphere is amazing, the views are incredible and the artwork is 2nd to none. Applied with care and quality. I will be back here anytime I need ink.
Excellent tattoo studio. Aaron is a fantastic artist. If you want a tattoo this is the place to must go. You will not be disappointed!!!
Aaron was awesome! I LOVE my tattoo. Shop was clean and awesome vibe. Will be back on our next vacation!
Always a good experience seeing Aaron. A photographers mate rating insignia from the Navy (with my color interpretation).
Great experience! Aaron is the master of ink and has great positive vibes. Highly recommend this place for the artwork, creativity, and professionalism.
My girlfriend and I got small matching tattoos, the tattoo artist (Chad) used the same stencil yet our tattoos look very different. The line art was messy and the color job looks very rushed and incomplete.
He did such an amazing job, couldn’t be happier. Ready for more.
180$ for this 🫤The lines vary in thickness and in how straight they are.
Nice shop, good artists, Chad was awesome, came up with a great piece for mine and my wifes wedding band tattoo. They take walk-ins and are a good price as well.
Awesome walk-in experiance with Chad. Good customer service, clean, and fun!
After speaking with the owner I’m changing my review to 5 stars. He has amazing customer service and was completely understanding.
Aaron made the tattoo even more special and does amazing work! Definitely be back!
Great little shop , got my wife and I in for our ring tattos really quick. Enjoy the work and really great guys who work there.
Lines were not clean, didnt fill in the color completely, after the healing process its super faded and you can barely see the line art. Looks like a nasty scar.
Aaron is amazing! So kind and talented! Highly recommend!
Best experience, and great work!! my
🤘
Bay View Tattoo is by far my favorite tattoo experience. (I have a lot of experience!) Not only is Aaron a phenomenal artist, his tattoo “bedside manner” is incredible. He goes the extra mile to make you feel totally at ease. Aaron did a very difficult symmetrical neck piece on me that required placing the stencils perfectly to mirror the other side and nailed it! He clearly cares about each client’s experience, as well as the quality of art that is created. The shop itself is clean and inviting, and the pricing is absolutely spot on! Definitely call and book your next tattoo here!
