Rose of Mercy 152-154 Hoxton Street, London N1 6SH

"Yesterday I had a cover up session with Oceane, honestly the best session I’ve ever had. She was very nice, she was always checking on me. The team were also so friendly and offered me drinks also. I can honestly say these tattoos are the best tattoos that I have ever had. I never even thought tattoos could look this good!!! I’m honestly so happy I had Oceane as my tattoo artist I really really recommend her. Her work is amazing. Honestly 10/10 service, I will definitely be coming back. Follow her on Instagram @Devils__work"

"Second visit to Rose of Mercy and second time being tattooed by Frank. Brilliant as usual, takes the time to make you comfortable, have a catchup and then give the best tattoo you could ask for whilst having fun the whole time! Also Mia was a pleasure to deal with in regards to bookings, really helpful, patient and did an amazing job, including making sure I was looked after in store. Lastly, big shout out to Kieran, who talked through Frank's flash, made sure I was alright the whole time and was super chill and lovely to talk to! Good luck in finishing your apprenticeship and looking forward to seeing you as a fully fledged Rose of Mercy artist. Can't wait to come back soon to get my chest done!"

The shop is full of creactivity, beauty, love, and incredible talent. The team are so welcoming , friendly and very supportive. I was tattooed by frank - he is very honest , helpful, kind and is happy to talk through ideas which made me feel comfortable and 100% sure of what i wanted. The tattoo was beautifuly hand drawn. I seriously cannot recommend this place enough!! A massive thankyou to everyone at Rose Of Mercy for the best time. i will definitely come back soon :)"

"Brand new tattoo shop that feels homely, beautifully decorated, and clean. Blanaid the manager was very welcoming and made a real effort to greet me. I went in to get work from resident artist Skinny Mouse who was very professional and polite, a treat to be tattooed by. The work done was to an extremely high standard and is currently healing well. I have also had work done by Frank Carter (resident artist and owner of the shop) at Rose Of Mercy. Frank was wonderful and welcoming, the tattoo was to an extremely high standard and was hand drawn and inked quickly. It has been great watching the shop transform into the amazing place it is today from the early stages."
