Fordham Ink Tattoos Studio Inc

Another borough classic: Fordham Ink Tattoos Studio Inc does the custom work around E 180th and Fordham Road. Black-and-grey, fine-line portraits, traditional Americana, script wordmarks — they rotate through the needle styles so you’re never stuck staring at one set of flash sheets.

The studio sits on the north side of East Fordham Road, right where the 4 train rumble drowns the drill instead of killing the vibe. Stop across the street at the deli for a quick iced coffee, then head inside without crossing under the El again.

City ink shops come and go, but this one’s locked the address at 114 E Fordham Rd Bronx, NY 10468 for a while. If you’re doubling back from the BX Community College campus or the big Marshall’s, you’ll hit it before you hit the Bronx Zoo gate.

Add contact info once near the end: call +1 347-972-7766, then open the map when you’re crossing Fordham Road to find the curb spot. https://www.google.com/maps/place?ftid=0x89c2f3e2b5c0bb13:0x1b363e4dc6ed8b60. See you inside the block.
