Royal Anchor Tattoo

I’ve gotten a couple pieces by Jay and I love them so much! I always get compliments on the colour compilation and detail. This shop has great, talented, and funny humans. 10/10 would recommend!

Amazing work they took me in right away when all the other places wouldn’t Sean and jay are amazing artists will definitely recommend them to everyone 100% satisfied

Jay was friendly and thorough. It was a great experience. Looking forward to working with him again soon.

Sean is utterly amazing this is hands down one of the most technical well renowned shops in all of the lower mainland, I speak from experience!

Love Royal Anchor Tattoo. I’ve been following and getting work done by big J for over 20 years now. Bright, clean, affordable, comfortable spot to get some ink.

My son and I went in to see Biggy Jay for his first and my second tattoo - a matched set of Celtic mother child knot. We are both extremely happy with the end result! The overall experience was great: very nice space with beautiful river view, friendly clients and artists, professional workmanship. We'll be back!
Definitely five out of five stars

First of all, it's a tattoo shop, not a piercing shop. The artists are all amazing and friendly. It's like I'm hanging out with friends when I'm there. Love my ink!

Awesome experience, we did the full six hour session, great view while getting tattooed and great choice in music thanks sean.

Very clean environment, couldn't ask for more friendly staff.
Naeim did a fantastic job. Was even understanding over some of the more painful parts of my tattoo.

This shop is really rad, super welcoming and no issues with any change you want done to the design. Jay is really light handed which was great when it came to tattoo my armpit.my first colour tattoo and the colours still pop after 4 years. I'd definitely go back

Great communication, friendly and easy to work with. The shop is clean and perfectly located, overlooking the Fraser River. The setting is calm and relaxing and with lots of natural light quite inviting. They abide by a strong COVID policy and make sure everything is clean and sanitized, very comforting. Great work, good price, great location, friendly artist, 10/10. Will be returning for more! Thanks Royal Anchor and Sean Cox.

Naiem was AMAZINGGGGGG. He was so patient and super friendly.i wanted smaller tattoos which are hard to make sure they are straight and he was just AWESOME. Definatley will go for aome more tattos.

First time visiting Tattoo studio.
Professional people with great service.
Thank you (ARON) for giving me my first tattoo. I cant stop looking at it.
I highly recommend to anyone and I will definitely come back for more.

It may have taken 25+ years before I finally conquered my fears, however, I walked in the shop excited yet terrified & walked out planning my next art piece {which I had done 3 days later}!

Words cannot express how thankful I am to Aron for my beautiful Tinker Bell & everyone at Royal Anchor Tattoo for making me feel as tho I was among lifelong friends from 1st contact. If you're considering new ink then there's simply no better shop than this!

Got my first watercolored ink of a maple leaf on my forearm here done by Joyce. I personally find it pricey due to the price difference compared to my home country but that’s not the way to gauge it since it’s like comparing apples and oranges. Other than that, i have no regrets getting my ink done here due to how beautiful it turned out. Joyce was extremely friendly and we had a good chat about Taiwan, Canada and Singapore during the 2hour session. I’d definitely come back for future inks when i’m in Canada again. Thanks a bunch!

My first tattoo i was fully satisfied and happy and nice piece of work and art by Willis love this guy really talented

My first time actually visiting the shop and I am so incredibly pleased with the customer service and atmosphere. The artists here are all incredibly talented and friendly! I will definitely be coming back here to get my next piece. 1000% recommend this place.

Sean Cox does an awesome job. You can tell he puts alot of effort in what he does, and he's easy to get along with

I am so absolutely satisfied with the work that was done on completing a crest on my arm (With loads of detail to do). Joyce is a fantastic artist that will put more effort into her work than anyone could possibly ask of her (And her dad jokes as well). The actual tattoo joint was inviting and Carly was well enough to convince me that this was one of the best places I've looked into thus far. I will be looking forward to coming back for more in the future. Thank you Royal Anchor.

Did a tattoo of my family names on my forearm at Royal Anchor Tatto. It was done by a young female tattoo artist called Joyce (she is pretty good) and the outcome was extremely nice. All the people I showed it to were super impressed esp my wife who wants to get one done when she comes. I was also impressed with their customer service and their rate was affordable. I recommend here 100%

I had a fabulous experience here, Sean did my tattoo of a little bee turned out great! They took me last minute on a sunday, Not gonna lie i was going to go to a different tattoo shop that my normal guy works at but they closed early even tho i called and booked the appointment.anyways a friend recommended here and Am I ever happy It turned out this way, Everyone was super nice.they had a little shop dog named Mali! She was the cutest little thing ever! And i love my tattoo of course! If you are reading this review considering coming here for a tattoo, DO IT! Ive seen the same artist for 3 years but next time ill come here first and see sean!

AMAZING shop, AMAZING people, AMAZING art, AMAZING environment. First visit and definitely won’t be the last. Aron is extremely great and very helpful so is the rest of the team. Will recommend to someone who’s on the lookout for a tattoo shop!
And Mali ️

I had a great tattoo experience from Sean Cox, and from Carly, who was manning the front desk. Sean nailed my tattoo and was lovely to chat with. Rates are great, and the shop was clean and approachable. I would absolutely recommend this shop to someone!
