Got a sleeve done by 'Manboy'. Very detailed and mostly free hand work. Beautifully done! and I get complements on it daily as its very unique and when I tell them its free hand they are shocked! I would recommend anyone from here. They do amazing work. And they are fun and professional. True artists. ❤ Read Less

Amazing guys in this shop! My best friend and I went in to get matching tattoos and they talked us out of a dumb idea and got us even better tattoos. Thanks so much! Gary was the artist. Highly recommended! Read Less

This place is great. 100% Recommend. This was my first tattoo, Bill was very helpful from placement to design he made sure I liked what he was putting down. Great hospitality and quick work. Thanks guys! Read Less

Went to see Bill at Anvil Tattoos after being discouraged about getting a tattoo because of really bad service at another shop.Bill was awesome! Did a really great job on my first tattoo as a walk in, and reasonably priced. He's now working on the art for my second one. I can't wait to see what he comes up with. I'm so excited again to be getting the tattoos I've been dreaming about for years. Thanks Bill. He's a great artist and tattoo guy. Read Less

Donovan does great work, it was his work on another a friend that had me booking him right away. His lines and shading are amazing. Plus he is a pretty awesome guy. He drew up the sketch for me same day as my tat. Looks amazing! Read Less

I've known Keith for a long time but for some reason never been tattooed by him. My girlfriend and I got a spur of the tattoo moment itch and popped in to see what was crackin. Keith had an open book for the rest of that night for walk ins so we showed him the ideas we had and he got to work. He did a bang up job on both our pieces, and we had a blast talking with Keith, manboy (Donavan), and Thad. Shop atmosphere was old school rat rod greaser style, but still calming and fun and relaxing. I'd recommend Anvil to anyone, and I'll definitely be back for more. Read Less

Amazing shop!The guys are great, patient, super talented, funny. They really made our tattooing experience awesome. Everything worked out wonderfully and we had a great time! And we love our pieces! Thanks Thad, Manboy, and Keith! Read Less

This was my first tattoo. What a positive experience! Kyle took his time in drawing my piece. Totally listened to what I wanted. Gave me a say in the colors that were used, he was awesome! The location is clean, friendly and I'd go back to see Kyle again in a heartbeat. Read Less

Thad did such a good job and it was mesmerizing to watch. I love the design and how he executed it flawlessly. He drew it up just right, mixed the dark red, black and red really well. Will tell a lot of people about this place and his work. Read Less

I came in hoping to at least get my consultation done, and even better I was able to get my tattoo today! The artists are super nice, the environment was awesome, and very clean. Thad did an amazing job on my tattoo, he answered all of questions and made sure I was comfortable. I'll definitely be going back to anvil tattoo! Read Less

Great shop with great artists! Thad was able to squeeze me in as a walk in. Excellent job on my forearm tat for my son. Will be going back soon. If your looking for a tattoo shop this is the one. There is a reason they are rated the best in the area! Read Less

I have never been happier walking out of tattoo shop, Keith has done an amazing piece on my arm that isn't even finished and I'm madly in love with it, if it's your first tattoo this is the place to go, my biggest advice is put your trust in the artists hands! Read Less

Great place, Amazing artists, clean and very personal. I've gotten many tattoos from Keith Bailey. I highly recommend going there and talking with any of the artists to see what they can do for you. You'll definitely be pleased and proud to show your new ink .Bring in any pictures or idea's and they will make it happen for you. Read Less

Ok, they do good work, only reason I gave them 2 stars. Made an appointment, but waited 40 minutes anyway while they wandered around chit chatting, looking at their phone, eating and ultimately getting set up. Then when he finally asked what I wanted and I told him, I was told it was stupid as F*ck. Been here twice and had the same experience both times. Won't go again. And it cost $130 for a fish hook. Twice as much as the previous tattoo that was way bigger. Read Less

Best work around! Hands down Quality Work will be done if you go here.  It's amazing how many people I see with Good ink work done who say that they went to Anvil. Yes, they are pretty booked up, but that speaks for itself. My best friend went here to get a cover up done for bad work done on her (at Illusions tattoo in smokey point  - don't ever go there, they mispelled one simple word on her and have horrible customer service). But ANVIL saved the day and did an awesome cover up!  Very pleased!!!! Great looking shop with amazing tattoo artists. You won't regret going here if you're in the market for superb ink work! Read Less

Got my first tattoo today.  Went in and saw Donovan with just an idea of a couple elements I wanted and he quickly came up with something perfect.  The price was good, the work was excellent, the people were cool, and the place was clean.  All in all a great experience. Read Less

Clean shop, friendly people, quality work, affordable and just simply Fantastic! So thankful I found this place! I asked for a rose tattoo and got beautiful roses on my shoulder.  Can't wait for the next one. All the employees do a great job. Very artistic. Read Less

AWESOME!! Went there last night to talk about a tattoo I wanted to get and to see what they thought and how much it would be. I ended up getting it done. Donovan aka Manboy did the tattoo. He was great, very professional and precise. From the moment I walk in to the moment I walked out, I was impressed. I will be back for future tattoos. Read Less

I went in to get a cover up done and from the time of consult to the time I got the work done, Manboy and the staff were friendly and professional. The tattoo, Mannboy did was phenomenal and far exceeded my expectations and was a great tribute to my deceased father. I would highly recommend Anvil Tattoo and particularly Manboy for their outstanding professionalism, artwork and reasonable prices. I will definitely return to Manboy for more work in the near future. Read Less

To celebrate my 18th birthday I had the top of my foot tattooed by Jimmy because he's done my fiancé's work and his brother's as well. He's a fantastic artist, very clean and reputable with reasonable prices. I also had a tattoo done by Manboy on June 13th, just a small owl for Friday the 13th but beautiful, exactly what I asked for, and Manboy has a much lighter hand than Jimmy although I prefer a heavier hand. Manboys light hand was nice for my location (stomach). All fantastic artists here. Read Less

I got a tattoo from Thad.part of my family was in the oso mudslide, so I wanted to get amemorial tattoo, so you can understand how perfect I wanted it, not only was it one of my best tattoos ( I have 9) Thad was a great guy and a great artist, I will be getting another one in a few weeks. awesome awesome awesome.Matt Read Less

This place was awesome went to a couple shops with horrible high prices for simple tattoos walked in both guys were amazing and funny. Was comfortable with the place very clean and all certs were hanging which is always nice to see. Wife and I asked a lot of questions and got very helpful information about placement of tattoos and got them done with great line work no problems at all. Best place north of Seattle in my thoughts. Read Less

I've gotten several tattoos from jimmy at anvil. he's an awesome artist, very cool guy and great at tattooing. I went to anvil because it was well reviewed and close not knowing what to expect. my expectations have been exceeded every single time. I always tell people about anvil and jimmy and I get compliments on my ink almost every day from random people. I'm sure the other artists are killer too. jimmy has been very easy to work with and offered suggestions on size and placement of what I've wanted in my tattoos. I've been inked by artist in denver, san diego, santa maria and tucson; out I all the artists I've worked with. Read Less

This shop is one of the best in marysville! I was very happy with the shop. It was clean and advertised the artist skills all over the walls. I told them what I wanted and he drew up exactly what I wanted but even better than I pictured it. Once we got started Vlad kept me distracted by asking me questions about my tattoo and my personal life and he was very funny. All the staff are very nice. If you're getting your first tattoo or your 100th this is the shop to go to! Read Less

I have been going to Moon since the day after I turned eighteen.Anvil is clean, well-lit, and very friendly every time I come in. Your artist makes you feel welcome and walks you through the tattoo. They don't become frustrated when the stencil is moved several times or when you have a question or two, which is something I have experienced at shops with other artists. Their prices are also EXTREMELY reasonable for the quality of work they do.My only complaint is their scheduling. Because they are popular and their artists do such quality work, they do have a lot of walk-ins and a booked schedule. I have been rescheduled on more than one occasion and, because they don't ask for phone numbers, I am only told that they don't have time for me when I walk in the door. However, the quality of work is worth it to me, so I only knocked one star. Read Less

By far the best shop around! I called with one idea that didn't work out so I asked if we could do something else. Moon accommodated me above and beyond! He worked with me to give me just what I wanted and was so nice and laid back. The shop is very clean and professional. Everyone there is nice and easy going. My husband and I will both be back again and again! I can't say enough good things about this place and the artists! Read Less

I can not begin to describe how amazing this shop and its artists are. I have collected art fro the last 18 years, from a few different artists. After going to Anvil I will never use another shop. They are clean, sterile and very professional, prices are median range for tattoo's in the area.  Lonnie Moon has done 3 pieces on me and 2 on my wife and one on 2 of my friends the work  is exceptional! after my first two I decided Lonnie is the artist to do my back piece I been planning for 10 years we are through the first 2 of four sittings the work is incredible and I cant wait to get the rest done. I can not praise this shop any higher. You can not go wrong choosing Anvil for your work! Read Less

To celebrate my 40th birthday, I got my first tattoo.  This is something that I've always wanted to do, but didn't have the guts and thought my pain threshold wasn't high enough.I planned this day for a year and finally got the balls to book an appointment and I've never been happier.  I thought that the colors wouldn't show up on my skin (African American) but the colors are gorgeous - so lovely that people actually think it's fake.Keith did a fantastic job on my tattoo.  We designed it together, he knocked it out in no time, and it's gorgeous.  I love it.It did hurt, but not as badly as I thought and I'm already considering having something added to the design.  We'll see.

Getting a tattoo was a terrific experience at Anvil Tattoo in Marysville, Washington! It’s a very clean shop, run by professional Artists that have excellent, creative skills supplemented by a good sense of humor that keep the environment lively. Piped-in music sets different tones, and enhances the place. Waiting for a friend? Pick-up one of their magazines, listen to the music and chill. Or - sit back, listen and have a good time. I just got another tattoo from them, and am very pleased (my fourth from Anvil). If you think you’re too old – you’re not. I didn’t get my first tat ‘til I was in my forties. I believe in it so much that I referred my son, Joe (who is 20) who got his first tattoo at Anvil. Keith Bailey, Lonnie and Berger are a laugh, and made the experience for my son and I absolutely great! It’s been years now since my first tattoo with them and it is still SOLID!Christopher Lowery Read Less

I just got a large rat fink tattoo from Keith. Great place, great vibe. I pointed Keith to a couple rat fink photos and he put together an amazing one off "family photo", rat fink style. Keith burned through 5 hours solid like a machine. A true artist!! His wife Lacie is cool as shit too! My wife is up for the next tattoo and it will be at Anvil. Read Less

Got my tattoo from here maybe a little more than a year ago and it was a great experience. the people were very nice and easy to talk to and most importantly the shop seemed very clean. Also my dad has gotten a few tattoos from here and if i plan on ever getting another one theyre on the top of the list. Read Less

the best tattoos on the west side of washington... id rather haul my cookies up to marysville to see Keith then see any tattoo artist in Seattle... he does beautiful custom work and makes the experience fun and fulla laughs! i have around  20 hours of work done by him and it's all been fantastic!
