Old Crow Parlor

Is it expensive?

Awesome shop with awesome artist. Alex Cetina is my artist and I couldnt be happier. All the artist in the shop are great and friendly. You cant go wrong with Old Crow.

I went in for my first tattoo earlier today, and Brandon was great through the whole thing. Very soft spoken and friendly, and understanding when I had a faint moment (needle phobias do not make for smooth tattoo experiences). I will definitely be going back to Old Crow next time!

Brandon Madrid was my artist. The shop was clean relaxed and he was extremely professional, redrawing my tattoo to fit my cover up. Thanks guys! Would go again! Fair prices for solid work.

Brandon is the man! Best tattoos in Houston period. Always great custom work and great friendly environment.

Clean! Brandon was very professional. Will definitely recommend him. Absolutely love my tattoo.

Could not recommend this shop more! Brandon did amazing work, even put up with my Unilocal and twitches (yay ribs tattoos!) and everyone who was working and/​or visiting their artists were so friendly! Great work, great hospitality– worth every second and penny– go Brandon!

I was referred to Alex Cetina by a friend. He did amazing! My dog passed away late last year so I wanted to get a memorial tattoo of him. Alex nailed it! It looks just like my dog and he did exactly what I wanted with his own twist. I just got it a few days ago and already have received tons of compliments on how great the work is. It was my first tattoo that took longer than 15 minutes and Alex was super nice about me needing to take little breaks. The shop was clean and comfortable. I will definitely be coming back and will refer others.

I found these guys on Unilocal and heard great reviews and I even visited their site. They all seemed to do the same style which is traditional and also my favorite for tattoos. So I wanted to get a traditional style monster tattoo and when I saw a flash piece online with the creature from the black lagoon, I fell in love! So immediately I went to the shop around noon, when they open, cause I was expecting them to be busy or something. Luckily they weren’t and Jared was able to do the job! I love how it came out and he did change the color from the original painting which was a green to a blue, it came out awesome! I’m definitely coming back here again! They’re shop is located right above a barber shop too you just go up the stairs and there you are in the shop! It’s very clean and professional and I love all the prints on the walls. Jared was really cool to talk to and he even showed me cool things about how tattoo machines work! I can’t wait to come back and hopefully next time with my sister!

I love this place.
Brandon Madrid has been doing 90% of my artwork for going on 8 years now. He is honest in opinion and I believe he genuinely cares what your tattoos will look like. It doesnt seem as much of a job to him as a passion and that is why he is the ONLY person I let near me with a tattoo gun. He also creates his own art which is a HUGE plus. Any artist can trace and copy, but it takes skill to create an image from thin air thats worth putting on your body. He also is VERY knowledgeable towards brands of pigments, or inks, shading, techniques, and cover-​ups. If he doesnt think it will work, he will tell you. Brandon is worth every penny and more that Ive ever gave him.
Now as for the other artists there from what I saw last night they seemed VERY skilled and polite as well. If you like traditional old school style, these are the guys to go to! Epic freehand work and custom work from them as well from what I witnessed other clients getting. Very professional and easy to get along with artists there!
NO KITCHEN MAGICIANS OR SCRAWLERS HERE FOLKS!

Always super clean, and professional atmosphere without being too intimidating for someone not use to tattoo shops. Entire staff is extremely friendly and knowledgable. I’ve been tattooed by Alex multiple times and will continue to go based on the work he puts out and how happy I leave every single time.

I love Old Crow Parlor! Honestly one of the coolest shops i’ve been to in Houston.
So far I only have 1 tattoo done by Alex but i will absolutely be a returning customer. He’s very detailed and has some unreal talent. The other guys are super friendly and extremely talented as well. Make sure to check these guys out!

Old Crow Parlor is one of the best tattoo studios in Houston! Every artist there, resident or guest, is incredibly talented and does solid work each and every time. Alex Cetina, Jared Green and Brandon Madrid are a few of my personal favorite artists and are all-​around good dudes. Every artist takes their time to work with you to create the custom piece of your dreams. They focus on traditional work, but are competent in any style. Do yourself a favor and get some work done by these amazing artists ASAP!

One of my favorite tattoo parlors in the city. Clean, professional, with solid tattooers doing solid tattoos.
I have been tattooed twice here, both times by Alex Centina, and have been very happy with his work. I have suggested this shop to most of my friends.

Old Crowe Parlor is the best! I’ve had a couple tattoos done by Alex and they are amazing. Bright colors that have not faded over time and reasonable prices. I will definitely be going back for future pieces. I also love the location because you can visit the shops and bars right next door.

Located upstairs above a barber shop. Jared and his old crow crew are solid guys doing quality work. Highly recommended if your looking for good people doing awesome artistry. Checkem out ASAP!

Love this place! Jared is super nice, very accommodating, and does excellent work. Went in with an idea and did a great job drawing it. I love his original work, esp his Halloween images. He also fixed an old tattoo for me. Highly recommended!

Excellent shop with great artists! A little hard to find if you don’t know what you’re looking for — it’s in the same building as the barber shop, just go in and head upstairs. I’ve been tattooed by both Jared & Alex and I get compliments all the time on their work. This small shop is pretty cool, filled with art and most of what’s on the walls has been painted by them.

My boyfriend has been here multiple times and his tattoos are amazing. The atmosphere is great and very clean. Service is great. I would recommend Ringo. He is a very talented artist. I’m definitely coming here to get my first tattoo.

I LOVE Old Crow Parlor, they do great work at a great price. They have a wonderfully talented team. I get Brandon Madrid to do all my work, he has a great way of understanding what you want and working with you. He is a very patient and talented artist. I know people who have gone to Jared and Alex as well, and always heard the best things. Definitely the perfect place to be a first timer or even a regular.
