About Glacier Ink

A top-rated tattoo shop in the heart of the Flathead Valley

Glacier Ink is a custom tattoo shop at 7 1st Avenue East in downtown Kalispell, Montana. Open Tuesday–Saturday from noon to 8 pm, the studio offers custom designs, walk-in flash and $49 Montana souvenir tattoos, and was voted a Best of the Flathead tattoo parlor in 2023, 2024, 2025 and 2026.

Choosing a capable artist matters as much as the design. Our artists work in a range of styles — from old-school blackwork to new-school watercolor and beyond — and we take all the time you need to get your design right. We use top-of-the-range equipment and follow every local health department rule.
