Testimonials

Absolutely love Shank’s work. Knowing what the tattoo means to me, Shank was patient and allowed me time to breathe. I will definitely go back soon and I highly recommend the Jolly octopus. Ask them on your visit about the name - it’s worthy of hearing.

Popped in to get some good quality jewellery for a piercing (not done here) that was taking a while to heal. Turns out I just needed some reassuring and expert advice. Super nice people that know their profession well and won’t rip you off.
— Rebecca Nolan
Steve has done 4 tattoos for me over the past 14 years and his ability never seizes to surprise me. I love his sense of humour and calming nature. He’s exactly who you would want to do your next (or first) tattoo. Thanks so much Steve. For all my tatts :D
— Marie Hurst
Its been quite a while since I was tattooed last, but now I am continuing my addiction. The Jolly Octopus is full of talented and friendly staff who are helpful with creating designs and ideas. Steve has exceeded my expectations on several occasions now, the first time with Chucky, which confirmed I had chosen the right tattoo artist and studio to continue with my other ideas. The second was with a Grim Reaper cover up, and now that its finished, one wouldn’t realise that it is a cover up. Steve has great aptitude for detail and colour matching, and I highly recommend him and his staff at The Jolly Octopus if you are looking for flair as I have since returned for several more.

Life is Good. Tattooing is better.

If you want a bunch of corporate-speak aimed at search engines, or too-cool-for-you attitudes, we’re not the ones for you.

If you like the idea of being tattooed by solid artists who are also real human beings (dad jokes and all), then welcome friend!

About Us

Your Jolly Crew

Steve has been tattooing since 1988. He’s tattooed all over the world, won a bunch of awards, all that stuff, but what really matters to him is making every single tattoo the best he’s ever done. That, and dad jokes. He loves dad jokes!

Shank is the next generation, taking our tradition forward. Don’t let her name fool you, she’s about as kind and gentle as they come, and her linework is crispy as fried chicken!

Custom designs or flash off the walls, we love tattooing with all our hearts. Come on in and see what we mean :)

walk-ins always welcome


Body Piercing

Steve has been piercing since the early 90’s. He charges more than the teenagers at the mall, but he also knows what he’s doing.

Body piercings are $120 for one, $180 for two, and strictly 16+
