Absolutely amazing work and friendly environment. I've had a lot of work done at different places but I have foind the one I will continue to go back to. Ive already gotten 2 piece done here and will continue to get more done here.

Doree was so sweet and patient as we puzzled the design together. We had a slightly different design and took separate parts to make the full piece and I am absolutely in love with the result. She was so careful and does such delicate line work that fit with the design well. I am just ecstatic to have the whole thing healed and on my arm forever and I HIGHLY recommend Doree!

Been a long time and I should’ve done this almost two years ago. But while I was in Kentucky for a rotational things for the army I went to Dork Tattoo sketched out since I’ve only been with one other tattoo shop. It was before a sum 41 concert and Mark tattooed a nice half sleeve of Jesus and the lamb of piece on me, then after my buddy left me to the concert, mark then took me to it. Classy guy and a great parlor to go to. I’ll never forget that day Mark and your tattoo is still holding up amazing, hopefully I’ll get to come to you again

Even with a deposit down, communication was strained, and the artist seemed less than interested in getting artwork ready. Couldn't get them on the phone to discuss the changes they were making to my original design, they insisted on texting only. I ended up cancelling, no longer feeling excited or confident in the work. The overall impression was that they weren't interested in my business. Really disappointed that it didn't work out as I'd only heard good things about this place!

Absolutely incredible experience! Mark is absolutely the best person. It was my first tattoo and thy made me extremely comfortable and knew exactly what I wanted even though I had trouble expressing it! He is a true artist 10/10 will probably drive 7 hours just to get my next one here!

Mark did an amazing job on my tattoo. Exceeded my (admittedly high) expectations. He's a highly skilled artist, especially with shading. Highly recommended!!! (My first tattoo with him, but not my first). He's a real pro and a nice guy.

We were on vacation in Kentucky recently and I have always wanted a tattoo and had to talk my husband into a good clean place to get one done for him. We googled tattoo parlors open late and found this one.
Jake did our tattoos and was very patient and workable. I got lettering I had been wanting for 15 years and he did a beautiful job. He drew up a quick arrow for my husband and it looks great - he is very happy with it.
Dork Parlor and Jake exceeded my dream of an on the whim at midnight tattoo adventure
10/10 would come back if we lived closer for more work!

Such a chill staff! Me and my friend went there for our first tattoo and they made the process so easy and happily answered any questions that we had! Our artist was so amazing (don’t remember his name ☹️). The atmosphere is also dope as heck. Recommend %100.

Let me start off by saying I was super nervous to come to this locally owned tattoo parlor, only because I had only ever been to Tattoo Charlie's. So i wad nervous about cleanliness and fresh needles and i mean of course the art itself. My hubby had been by the shop a few times walking to the car from work. So when I entered the shop it was my first time. Let me start by saying everyone was super nice. It's a cute quiet lil shop with pictures all over the walls. I loved it instantly. Mark, my tattoo artist, was willing to work with me when it came to my tattoo . I had 2 pictures that i wanted to tie into one tattoo. He was wonderful. The main outline ur free up was perfect. Exactly how I wanted. Was even nicr enough to add a few lil things after he put the outline on. When he finished the tattoo was way better then i had imagined. I definitely recommend them. They do fantastic work. My piece is absolutely beautiful.

Called ahead they closed at 12 am. We drove there parked and paid for parking. Then walked up the lights were all out and no one inside, the door was open but no one there. Super weird and very odd. Disappointed.
