Mr. Pat Crump just completed my first tattoo and it is precisely everything I was hoping for! He was fast, accurate, considerate, and extraordinarily talented. Thank you to him so much! You cant do better in the south. They also do everything right to keep you safe.
My experience at The Butcher was fantastic, start to finish.We put an event together here, and Jimmy was super on point every step of the way. The care they show their clients, and also in maintaining the high quality reputation they have, even through a pandemic, is unsurpassed.Their choice to put the safety of their customers over profit in uncertain times guarantees my business every single time Im able to send any their way.The shirts are also great quality and come in really unique colorways.I cannot recommend this place enough.
Mark was super nice and attentive. He took the time to draw the tattoo exactly as we imagined! Light handed and very understanding of a person with a low pain tolerance
Last year I had a pretty small piece done behind my ear; I’ll be going back soon for another piece on my hand and possibly forearm, as well.. very cool place. And, great staff!
I received my first tattoo here for my birthday and my experience was amazing! Mark did my tattoo and it turned out exactly how I wanted it to be. Since it was my first time I was very nervous, however the staff was very respectful and treated me so nicely. A week later I even received a text message from the shop checking in to see how my tattoo and I were doing. Would highly, highly recommend this studio!
I had my tattoo done with M. Pickman and he is wonderful !! I have had many tattoos done in many different places and he is by far the best quality with the best color that I have gotten so far !! I have another appointment for more tattoos with him already scheduled.
Visited from upstate New York, they fit 3 out 4 people in the same day with a crammed schedule. Everyone was polite and cool. Couldnt have asked for a better experience! Highly recommended
We set up an appointment in person waiting several hours after no response went back in person and they had forgot about us they did not try to make it right continue to see other people in front of us not sure about the quality of work but their customer service sucks the clerk up front had a scratch pad nothing professional so she was very unorganized
Am on vacation here from Pennsylvania. Was recommended by several to come here. Love the place, love having Mark as my artist. Gave him an idea of a combination of two different tattoos, he designed one awesome tat out of the two. Thank you everyone, you all were so very nice and the work of the employees, great. Definitely will be back for more
I’m in the process of finishing up my first tattoo here. The place is clean, the lady at the front desk is kind and makes you feel at home. My artist is kimberly reed. She is talented, kind, and passionate about making your piece look just the way you want it. I love my first tattoo and can’t wait to finish it!
Best tattoo shop in Savannah with several great artists. Cory Hand did my work and he showed himself to be talented, timely and financially upfront and fair. I couldnt be happier.
Very clean. Kind staff. Kim, especially, is a very good artist! Worth the money.
I showed up with my friend for his consultation which was supposed to be at 12:30pm we got their early around 12:00pm. The receptionist told us to be seated and shell let the tattoo artist know that were there.We left at 1:20pm because not only did the receptionist not assure us that the Tattoo artists was almost done and will see us shortly but had a previous client, it seemed like he was never told about the consultation because he was going to start doing a tattoo for said previous client. Thats when we left because apparently new customers arent treated with respect. Both my friend and I were really looking forward to this.I wish their customer service was as good as their artwork.
Wonderful staff. Great work
Jenny worked very hard to get me in for a small wrist piece. She was very sweet and definitely put me at ease. Kim, the artist did a beautiful job and also made me feel extremely comfortable. Definitely recommend this spot to anyone in the Savannah area!
Fantastic work, super nice staff. My memorial tattoo is everything I wanted and more.
Extremely organized and knowledgeable desk staff. Artists are very open to suggestions and work with you for your tattoo. I saw Pat Crump, and he was very helpful for my first tattoo and even sketched an initial draft while discussing the art at the consultation. It turned out even better than expected.
Love Cory Hands work, absolutely beautiful
Ive had two sessions with Kelly Borders at the Butcher. Her work is amazing, and shes very laid back as an artist. The shop is always clean and comfortable. All the artists and management staff are kind and helpful. They treat you like family. Just dont be rude, and theyll get you squared away. I couldnt have imagined anything better as my first tattoo experience.
Our first tattoo experience couldn’t have been better. Great environment, and Pat kept us laughing the whole time. We’ll definitely be back for more.
My sister and I had the best experience here! The place was wicked clean and everyone was really nice. Kim tattooed both of us and worked with us to create pieces that we absolutely love. She’s easy to talk to and collaborate with and made us feel super comfortable the whole time. Thanks Kim you’re the best!
Got a super original custom piece from Cory Hand..couldnt be more thrilled
Management was courteous and very helpful. Artist I had did some work on my friend as well. Gave the artist plenty of ideas and guidance to go off for an original and interesting design but he ended up basically just tracing the image right out of a picture.The only reason I ended up getting the tattoo after being mostly underwhelmed with the design was it was my first tattoo and I was nervous. If I had to do it again I would have went somewhere else so that part is my fault. Its still a quality tattoo however and there is no doubt he is a good artist.Went back months later for another tattoo and briefly met with him to discuss the new idea, he cut me off immediately and just said I dont do those and pretty much invited me to leave. I got it artist have styles they focus on and ones they dont do but he didnt even entertain the idea and I didnt feel very respected as a returning customer or even a regular person for that matter when I left.I ended up just going next door and was able to get an amazing tattoo the same day..My friends first tattoo turned out great he went back for an additional tattoo of a wolf running across his chest. Same artist. It wasnt until my friend got home he realized his wolf only had 3 legs.. everything else looked alright.Shop is cool there rest of the staff was polite and friendly.
Jimmy did such an amazing job on my half sleeve. Really captured what I wanted. Love love love it!
Great atmosphere! Talented artist.
This place is amazing! They were super clean, and everyone on staff was so nice. This was my first tattoo, and I was very nervous, but the staff and Pat especially made it a really enjoyable experience for me! Pat did a PERFCT job, and it hardly even hurt! 10/10 would recommend going here, especially for your first tattoo!
Really inviting, comfortable atmosphere and everyone was so nice! My artist was Kimberly Reed and not only was she obviously talented, but she was endlessly patient and understanding about my nerves over getting my first tattoo, and went above and beyond to make it a positive experience. I would recommend her to anyone!
I have been coming here since summer of 2016. On every occasion Ive always been welcomed with such class. The environment inside is interesting constantly changing their wall art to a different local artist. SUPER CLEAN, Ive never had an issue or complaint. Between the 5 artists they are all amazing with incredible talent and professionalism. I recommend The Butcher and the artists within to anyone and everyone looking for high quality tattoos.
The front end staff was nice, shop very clean and The Butcher has very talented artist.My tattooist was Cory Hand. He was excellent to work with. During the art consultation I gave him a basic idea of what I wanted, two examples and he put together an amazing piece. The tattoo session consisted of one full day session with a touch up session a few weeks later. Both session were extremely enjoyable with a combination of the general environment and the comfort level of working with him.In the end I had an amazing experience and a tattoo I am very proud of. I look forward to using The Butcher shop and Cory for future tattoos and recommend them highly.
I got the honor of working with Pat on a design and he took it and exceeded my expectations! It was my first tattoo and he made sure I was comfortable through the whole experience. Have already recommended him and this place to several friends and I will be back in the future!
Had fun, healed fast. Love my tattoo.
Love the artwork and quality of my tattoo. I would highly recommend to anyone who is thinking about getting inked.
On a last minute whim, my friend decided to reach out to Jimmy Butcher to see if he could squeeze her in while we were in town, and thankfully he could! He went above and beyond her expectations for her tattoo and she loves it. He was so easy going and fun to chat with, and everyone else at the shop was so nice too! It was an upbeat, open environment, and I know well both be stopping by there again when were in Savannah.
I can’t tell you how grateful I am to Cory who fixed one horrid tattoo of mine I got from another local place in Savannah. He turned something ugly into something beautiful. His artwork is amazing and the staff are always friendly and courteous. This place is the shizzle.
Nice and clean shop. Kim Reed did a great job on my shoulder piece.
Clean environment, awesome staff and fantastic work. Cory Hand is the best! His work and Kelly Borders work are phenomenal! I always have a great time with Rhonda, Kelly, and Cory!! THEY ROCK!
Tattoos I love tattoos . Awesome. ️
Clean, inviting and friendly staff, the artists are amazing and professional. As long as I live in the area and probably even if I move, Ill never go to another shop!
Great shop. Talented and friendly artists. Kelly Borders did my sleeve and it turned out amazing.
Kelly is just phenomenal. My husband and I have been coming to her for years, and even now travel from 5 hours away because we wont trust anyone else. The Butcher is always clean. Everyone is welcoming and is always a great time to be around. Definitely our favorite shop weve ever been to!
I put a deposit down for a tattoo a couple of years ago. The week after I found out I was pregnant. I know they only hold deposits for a year so I called them to explain. They were super understanding and helpful and told me to call the and let them know when I got finished breastfeeding and they would start my deposit like it was put down that day. So I called and had a consultation. My deposit was originally with Jimmy but he told me he would do it but Cory would be better for it because I was getting a superhero and Cory loves superheroes. So I went this weekend and got it. I love it! Everyone was super great and nice!
Always great staff and great work. Have had a few pieces done there and I havent been disappointed.
Talented artists! Beautiful work!
I LOVE this shop. The vibe and warm welcoming make the experience fun! Kelly Borders has never failed me with my tattoos. She has gone above and beyond with my ideas and made my tattoos even better than I imagined with her suggestions. Love her
The best tattoo shop hands down in Savannah! Had the best experience getting my new piece done by a talented crew! Look no further, go to butcher.
Im so glad I found this shop! The artists are super friendly and were very willing to help me figure things out. The personnel there helped me find the artist that would do the best work for the tattoo I was looking to get done. The atmosphere is fun but professional. My artist, Cory Hand, was so amazing and so talented. Compared to other artists Ive been to, I feel he had a really soft hand and his skill helped make the process fun and easy. Thanks you guys! Cant wait to finish up with the color!!!
I got my second tattoo at The Butcher and I couldnt be happier. My artist, Cory Hand, was phenomenal. Not only did my tattoo turn out amazing but the atmosphere was fantastic and made me feel super comfortable getting my tattoo there. I will definitely be coming back in the future, and will be recommending this place to all of my friends.
Great group of artists. Studio clean and well organized. Kim Reed was my artist. She worked with me over the week before my appointment and really did a bang up job! Took my idea and made it a beautiful reality!
Everything about the Butcher is amazing. Jenny (the receptionist) and Jimmy are both really cool and friendly. There was a mishap with my initial design, which Jenny and Jimmy compensated for my troubles by refunding my deposit and giving me the tattoo for free. Mind you, my tattoo was small, but still. I thought that spoke words and was really nice of them to do. For my tattoo, Jimmy made sure it was perfect and exactly the size and shape that I wanted. I got the tattoo on my ribs and was shocked at how little it hurt if anything the hardest part was trying not to laugh hearing the artists make jokes to one another. Overall, even with the mishap, I was beyond pleased with my overall experience at the Butcher. I would highly recommend the Butcher to anyone looking to get a new tattoo. I know I will be going back to get another tattoo.
Great folks and talented artists!!!!
Great artist!! Cool place, very comfortable.
Great atmosphere and the work is incredible
Best artists in the entire low country.
Up until recently, I had nothing but great things to say about The Butcher. I have been tattooed numerous times by both Jimmy and Kelly, which do great work, if youre willing to PAY for it. $100-$150 an hour, at least. I made a deposit of $100 about a year ago, and was getting tattooed just about every month and paying for those sessions in full. Keeping that deposit revolving. I made an appointment to have a small script piece done by Kelly, finally using that $100 deposit. (She had done a very similar script piece previously for $100) Of course, if she had charged more, I wouldve been happy to pay the difference. I showed up at the shop a week before my scheduled appointment to get with Kelly about the font and the words of the piece. After we have our conversation and she walks away, Jenny (receptionist) tells me that I need to put down another deposit before I leave. That they had been lenient with me up until this point. Ive never missed an appointment and I promoted the shop every single day, wearing t-shirts, giving out MULTIPLE business cards, spreading the word, I even had Kellys sticker on my car. I messaged Kelly about the situation, with no response. Bottom line, theyre damn good artists, but theyre greedy. Customer service is number one, and if you cant provide that, Ill be finding an artist who will.
Always the Best work with the most professional treatment
Great staff, amazing artwork, awesome atmosphere. Very happy with the work I had done with Kim and plan to go back for more.
Went to Pat for my second tattoo. And he did a fantastic job with everything. overall environment was amazing, they made me feel comfortable and I would recommend all my friends here.
The front staff is great, very knowledgeable and help pair you with the right artist for your specific piece. I went in wanting 2 video game related tattoos and got referred to Cory Hand.He did AWESOME work, fast, quality, and clean (very important)Will definitely use this shop and Cory for all future tattoos.
The Butcher is an amazing Tattoo shop filled with talented artist. Kelly MF McDonald does amazing work. She has done my full sleeve as well as both my husbands sleeves. I would recommend her and The Butcher to ANYONE!!! Cant wait to get more work done.
This is one of the best shops Ive been in. The people were understanding about is running late for our appointment. They were all super nice and fun to hang out with.
Pat did an amazing job! Super relaxing and peaceful environment.
This is my 9th tattoo Ive gotten but my first time at The Butcher. I chose Pat Crump as my artist. I just got done getting tattooed and am in love with it. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone. Hes got an awesome personality and is an amazing artist. Go to The Butcher and ask for Pat, you wont regret it!!
Nice and clean tattoo
My favorite tattoo shop in the south east. I drive 4 hours (one way) to get Cory Hand tattoos. Great staff, very clean environment, and top notch artists.
My time at the Butcher was amazing! Ive followed Kelly for 5 years and theres no one else Id trust to do my tattoos! I send all of my friends and family to her while they are on vacation and the end product is always breathtaking. The staff is very friendly and have only your best interest in mind, definitely recommend them to everyone in the southeast!!
Awesome awesome awesome artists. You get what you pay for when it comes to tattoos. Cory is fantastic. Had a bit of a personal disagreement with him, but that doesnt take away from what a fantastic artist he is and how well he listens when you are describing your desired tattoo.
Friendly staff, streamlined booking and the most talented crew in Savannah. Look no further, youve found the best.
Amazing work done here, I wouldnt go anywhere else. Very clean, professional, and friendly staff. Reasonable rates.
Mark was awesome!
Excellent artist, Pat, did poetic work with mine.
Went in to get a Betty Paige tat but the artist refused to do the piece. i wanted on my inner thigh and as i cross my legs i want to be able to set down and see her right side up, leaving her upside down to every one else. kelly said it would stupid and refused to do it- she also tried to pressure me into a larger scale than i wanted. i tried to explain i was the customer and i dont care what people think- its my tattoo... nope... so on to the next artist... dont let your tattoo artists pride get in the way of your ideas and consider finding a different shop. they did refund my deposit which was the right thing to do.
Nice work, but the artist was a jerk. He was sarcastic, rude, and acted very smug and cocky. The tattoo came out well, but Ill be going to a different place next time where the artist wont act like a twat.
All I can say is CORY HAND IS AWESOME!!
Very nice but dim witted akaThe worst meat shop ever!After walking in i was immediately thrown off by the cleanliness and scent. Very unusual for a meat store. The young secretary (Jenny i beleive) was very gracious but seem very confused after i asked for 25lbs of lean ground chuck and and a half rack of beef ribs. It took about 5 minutes for them to even understand my order. I asked to see the Butcher in the back. I figured that he could help. He didnt! He was just as clueless as the rest of the staff!I didnt get any of the meat I ordered but did get a pretty awesome Viking sleeve by Cory Hand.
The best! Wish I lived closer to get all my Tattoos here!
Great place go see corey
Great place to get a tattoo!!! Very professional!!!
Nice place

Loved the cleanliness and professionalism
