Amazing customer service, super clean shop, and very fair price for the quality of ink I got. Kelly was professional and also very entertaining during the process. Would go back in a heartbeat and definitely recommend!

I can't say enough about this place. I had work done by Patrick Marshall. I got a remembrance piece done of my dog who died in September of 2020. I live about 500 miles from Mankato, and Patrick spent time talking to me on the phone to understand the importance of my piece. I felt like he wanted to get to know about my relationship with my dog and what we did together so he could feel the emotion behind why I wanted it done. I sent some pictures and gave him creative control. He put together a piece that spoke to me and executed it with perfection. He was kind, fun, and professional. I felt the whole time like mine was the most important piece he had ever worked on, and I think that is the sign of a good artist.
I can't recommend this place enough. If I ever have another piece done, Patrick will be the man. If you ever read this, thank you for giving me a perfect piece of work.

Unprofessional business. cancelled my appointment several times when I had take time off work to travel an hour to get the the shop. Messaged me over Facebook messager to tell me my appointment was cancelled. Didn't read the message till I got there. Then I Reschedule appointment for 2 months later and then canceled that appointment 3 hrs before appointment because artist wasn't prepared. Poor service. Wouldn't recommend

Kelly has done many many tattoos for me over the years, and every time I come back to the shop it feels homey and familiar. Receptionists are always helpful and efficient, prices are fair, tattoos are QUALITY!

I have gotten tattooed 4 times from 3 different artists at Mecca, and all of my experiences were very positive. I felt very confident in the ability of all 3 artists and would recommend any of them to my peers. That being said, Tom Earhart was particularly exceptional. Not only is he a skilled artist (I am not an artist myself so take that as you will), but his prowess with a tattoo gun is impressive at minimum. He works quickly, but not in a sloppy manner; and the healing process from his pieces was definitely the easiest I have experienced. If you want a traditional tattoo done in Mankato, I recommend you start with Tom.
The shop is clean, and all interactions I have had with the staff/artists have been pleasant.

Meagan does amazing working, she did a memorial tattoo for me of my father and it turned out better than I could have ever expected. I would recommend her for any work that you are looking to get done. You may have to wait but well worth the wait.

Was easy to get a walk in on a Saturday however for such a simple design I was expecting less of an up front cost. I am used to tipping based on quality and experience I feel like this shop may roll this into the cost of the tattoo. Itβs a good piece but compared to another shop in town I visited the same day I got a way bigger piece, more complex, with color from someone with the same time of experience and paid far less. Overall good experience just the sticker shock was interesting.

I've gotten 2/3 tattoos here and I wouldn't change anything about it, Kelly has been my main person she's done both of mine, and will be doing another tomorrow and I know she'll knock it right out of the park! They're also so funny I love it. It's a really great place to be if you're looking for an awesome tattoo! Love everyone thereβ€
