I drive out of stat just to get tattooed by the wonderful artist at the shop. To anyone that knows anything about tattooing this shop is owned by Chad Koeplinger, a legendary artist that has been tattooing 20 plus years and is very respected. This is a professional tattoo shop and the hospitality/ work that is put out is nothing short of stellar. If you want a good tattoo and something that will always look amazing go here. For the guy stating he was mistreated by asking to go outside while using his phone. I was getting tattooed while this happened and he was asked nicely, also the artist didn’t say much when they broke another rule of smoking right in front of the door. The artist are trying to keep a peaceful environment for ones that are being tattooed. Like I said this is a professional tattoo shop.

Chad is brilliant at what he does! Super cool shop, best traditional American tattoos in Tennessee and he has been tattooing over 20 years across the world. Other artists at the shop are friendly and talented as well.

I've gotten two floral pieces from Zane so far. He's very polite and respectful and has great work. I am definitely coming back to see him in the future.

Addie Adams

Super nice people!!!

Audree Langford

The ENTIRE staff is so welcoming and helpful. I can’t say enough good things about everyone I encountered there. I found Eli through Instagram and he’s working on a coverup for me and has been absolutely accommodating beyond my expectations. Easily the best tattooing experience I’ve ever had. The atmosphere is absolutely unmatched to any shop I’ve ever walked into. A great group of talented artist all around who are happy to help

Spencer Connatser

Great experience and amazing work. Zane exceeded expectations. Really clean and bright and in a cool part of town in East nashville. High-quality tattoo artists without the pretentious nature of some other high-end shops you'll find in nashville.

Randy Wallin

Dakota Smith

Brilliant tattoo shop! Friendly service, and great tattoos.

Matt McVicker

Great shop, even greater tattooers. These dudes can make anything for you that you’d like. After being tattooed by both Zane and Eli, I’ll definitely be back to get work done by Chad, Chuck, and Nate as well. Would highly recommend!

Beautiful shop that is full of great people, and great art. Chad finished a stomach piece on me recently, and I couldn’t be happier with it! If you want awesome tattoos from awesome people come on down to adventure tattoo!

Eric Lewis

Nathan was awesome and welcoming! I came into the parlor as a walk-in and Nathan took the time to listen and put together an idea that I had envisioned in my head. Needless to say, he did an amazing job and I will definitely be coming back here to get more work done.

Jackie Cowden

As a referral from a friend, I went to Eli to get my first tattoos. I'm 64 yrs old and wanted some art for almost 30 years. I did both wrists with my zodiac greek symbol on one and a lion on the other. Eli gave me great advice on making them larger than I anticipated and with the placement. I'M SO HAPPY with them both! I'm glad they are larger and they are impeccable. I didn't know in advance it was cash only but fortunately I had enough $.

Donald Walls

Wanted to welcome them to the neighborhood very excited about possibly getting a tattoo from them walk in , was told it was by appointment only asked for a card was told there clients are from out of state and no did not receive a card . So no thanks I won’t not recommend this place !!!!

Marcus Stanfield

Such great work! Great shop with great talent. Our guy is Zane, and he does phenomenal work. But all of them are extremely talented. They accept walk-ins, which is crazy, considering the talent, or appointments. They make you feel safe and comfortable, while keeping a traditional tattoo shop vibe. You should check them out.

Chuck and Nate were awesome!! We walked in for 3 matching girly tattoos and they were super friendly and quick!

John Brown

I drove my brother here to get some color added to a tattoo by Chuck Paprocki. (Great work) I was asked to wait in the lobby due to space concerns in the back, which I understand. I was gonna inquire about possibly adding some more work to my arm when my brother was finished. While waiting in the lobby, I received a phone call so respectfully, I was speaking softly. One of the artists told me to go outside to use my phone. This really rubbed me the wrong way. I wasn't being disrespectful, I was in the lobby and speaking softly? Perhaps if he was polite and said please I probably wouldn't be bothered by it. Not to metion it was 20 degrees outside. There was also a couple in the lobby aswell. They were talking and laughing much louder then I was talking on the phone. I felt singled out and disrespected. I will go elsewhere to get work done! Two of the three guys were very polite and friendly. You can be the best artist in the world but if you don't treat people with respect you will fail to be successful. The Disrespectful artist was a fairly large guy with a beard and glasses. (Chad Koeplinger) My brother is very happy with the work performed here by Chuck.

I love Adventure Tattoo, they have always exceeded my expectations.

Josh Hawkes

Rad shop, every artist in there does great work, and has a great personality to boot. Got tattooed by Zane! Quality work and quality dudes.

Eric Shevchenko

Top notch

Matthew Hanby

Chad provided an amazing and calm atmosphere to be tattooed in. He utilizes mainly direct drive machinery, alleviating the stress of the constant, seemingly deafening buzz of coil tattoo machines. My pieces healed rapidly, and appear to be brilliant! I could not be happier with his work. I highly suggest this shop for a small piece for a travel souvenir, or any larger piece for a serious collector. He is a true master of his trade. Email him to set up a consultation, and appointment. Otherwise, I hear great things about his coworkers. His work is available on instagram as well. @adventuretattoo_nashville

Brayden apple

Very professional and friendly! So much talent in a small place. Will be back till I run out of space!

Stephanie Hoke

I went in to get tattoos with my whole family. Zane reserved a day for us, and he was super easy to work with! He took time with each of us to come up with the best designs based on our thoughts. He did a great job on all four of us!

Karen Wahid

Nice little tattoo place tucked away in Nashville TN. I just got a little heart tattoo and they did a great job I love it.

Rob Mares

Great place. The artists are friendly and willing to work with you to implement your design or do custom work on your vague ideas. Just a great low key, place with friendly artists.

Jennifer Sherman

Great shop!
