Port City Tattoo | Long Beach

I live very close to the shop and stopped by to get an idea of timing/pricing for a tattoo I’ve been wanting for years. Ben was really welcoming and talked/sketched some ideas with me really quickly. I made an appointment to see him again a few days later. I’m beyond happy with the results, and am already thinking about what I’d like next! My husband was also impressed with the shop and Ben and spent our time there coming up with ideas for what he wants next. The shop is extremely clean, everyone there was so friendly, and the whole process was super quick. Thanks Ben!!

Amazing experience! This is my 4th time coming to the shop—I’m never disappointed with my artist. Damien did a wonderful job on my throat, made sure I was comfortable and okay, and I really felt like he took his time to make sure the details were all there.

The BEST experience! Ricky at the customer service front end was exceptional! My artist was Cody and the detail and work was immaculate! Also he worked in a re work from a prior tat from another state. My daughter got her first tattoo from Ben and he made her SO comfortable. Her boyfriend got his first tattoo thing piece from Damien and he was VERY impressed! I cannot tell you how impressed we are!

I’ve been coming to Cole Strem at Port City Long Beach for a few years now. I love Cole’s style and he delivers really quality work. He makes the whole experience really easy, from booking and working on ideas to getting the placement just right! He always seems as excited to do the tattoo as I am to get it. Everyone else I’ve interacted with here has been nice and professional. They have cool art covering the walls and good tunes playing.

We had a great experience at Port City Tattoo yesterday. John has been wanting to get his tattoo for a long time. Ben did a great job and was not heavy handed. I would go back again

Experience was excellent. Walked in on our honeymoon and was greeted immediately. The design process was quick and the tattoo came out amazing! Eli is a master of his trade and a solid human being. Great crew at Port City Tattoo, will definitely be returning here!

Decided to get a tattoo while on vacation in LA and couldn’t have chose a better place. The shop environment was great and employees were very welcoming. Damien did an amazing job with my traditional eagle piece, highly recommend. Much love from the east coast 🤙

Booked an appointment with Cole from Port City Tattoo Long Beach after searching for an artist that did solid American Traditional work. I was impressed with his enthusiasm and overall professionalism. The shop was great and everyone was friendly. I picked out a black and gray traditional eagle I'd seen on his Instagram. He worked quickly. Experience was a 10/10 and look forward to returning in the future.
