My friend got her belly piercing here and she recommended the place to me. Both, mines and hers, healed perfectly fine within a 6-12 month period. Will was doing a tattoo and stopped to do my piercing and then continued with the tattoo. He was very nice to me and my mom and kept a conversation going while doing the piercing so I wasn't as nervous. He drew the reference points and asked me if I want it there and put the jewelry I've my belly to see where it would land and how it would look. The piercing was very quick but a little bit painful. The healing process wasn't that bad. Now it's almost a year old and it's completely healed. 100% recommend. read more

Excalibur Tattoo - Loved the belly piercing. It was quick and easy, it did hurt a little. Everything was very clean - Tattoo Near Me - Berwyn, Illinois

Well... at first I thought this place would be professional and I won't be disappointed but it end up going terribly wrong. I went to get a nose piercing after 3 days I noticed the ring he used was the wrong size. The ring started to go all the way the hole, causing me to have to keep pushing it upwards. I went back asking for him to change the ring. He told me he can't do anything for me! I don't recommend this shop read more

Will was very patient he was also very fast he pierced me and I paid and it all healed well read more

I got my septum done here a couple months ago. I unfortunately didn't catch the piercers name but he was relatively nice, a little too sarcastic for my tastes but too each their own. However, he wasn't wearing a mask which made me uncomfortable. There was a second person sitting behind the counter as well, I asked him questions, to which he knew none, he just told me to talk to the piercer. He was also on his phone the whole time I was there, which seemed unprofessional. Not sure if he was an employee or a friend of the piercer. The piercing was quick and easy, but he never told me the size he used, so now I'm a little clueless as to what gauge to size down to. On top of that, the cleaning instructions he gave me were to just use soap and water, which is definitely not something you should use on fresh piercings. It gave me the impression he didn't know what he was talking about. 4 months later and my septum isn't completely healed yet, but I never had any major issues either. Needless to say, I don't think I'll come back here. read more

Will was the best!! He did my daith piercing, I was VERY scared but he has a great way of calming someone down! He's a natural sweetheart. I also got my belly pierced by Will, and he did a wonderful job! I will definitely be back . no read more

Will is the best at giving tattoos and piercings!!! He has done the majority of mine! I highly recommend going to him.

my septum got pierced through cartilage and is now taking longer to heal than it would if it were pierced through my sweet spot.. before the guy (will?) did my piercing he was talking trash to me about my tattoos and the shop i get them done at, telling me that place sucks and that they require no skills to do the amazing traditional art they do there very unprofessional experience :( don't talk shit to clients about other shops, especially when it's somewhere they go to get their ink done read more

This is the ONLY place I'll come get my piercings at. Small, but clean place, the owner is a great guy.. I always forget his name..Will maybe? He always takes the time to make sure I'm getting my piercings in the exact place I want them and even suggests placement according to his experience. I've gotten "personal" parts pierced and Ive always felt comfortable, he never made things awkward! So ladies, don't be shy. Every time I've gone there I've had a great experience, in total I've gotten 5 piercings and all healed great. Follow instructions & you'll be ok! read more

They close @ 5 what kinda of bullshit is that and last time I got my nose done it got Infected

First off, this tattoo shop has relocated. I'm not sure what the new address is but if you search them online like yahoo or something I'm sure you can find their new address. I came in here about 1/2 a year ago with a friend to get a belly button piercing. I was nervous because I had to get mine re-done since the previous place I had gone into messed up my piercing and I had scar tissue. Money Mike was our piercer and he was great. He's a funny guy and tries to make you feel relaxed while you're being pierced so that you're not thinking about the needle or blood (both make me queasy). I was actually really scared because he didn't use the tongs to hold the skin to pierce. Instead he just used his hand and the needle. He really hooked me up with a nice belly ring for a great price (I only paid $25 or $30 for the piercing which included the ring) and he did a great job. Before we left, we were given a small paper with instruction on how to take care of our belly ring (the whole cleaning process, etc). Then Money Mike gave us 2 posters (each) of his artwork. read more

My son and I walked in, the guy doing a tattoo on a female client was not friendly, border line rude, just out right like we were burdening him with our business. Needless to say we took our hard earned Green Backs to a shop in Oak Park not far from this shop. Mr. Bear did a great job. read more

Got a nose piercing here and the guy (will) was super sweet , they deserve more customers!

Before I say anything, my piercing did turn out pretty well so I'm grateful for that. However, the shop owner (I didn't catch his name) is kind of a horrible person. He neglected to wear a mask even though my friends and I were wearing them, his sarcasm was not at all inviting and made the entire experience very uncomfortable. He used many racial slurs and could not stop talking during the entire process so it hurt a little extra when he inserted the needle because he was distracted listening to his own voice and ill-mannered opinion. Although he is very cheap which was nice, I'd suggest trying to get out of there as quick as you can because his horrible, racist, bigoted attitude was too much. read more

Don't come here!!! Was here about a week ago. Some shit went down 1.) There was only one worker the night I came in. Not very unusual for a Monday night but the worker was making very RACIST comments the WHOLE time we were there. From the moment the he started our piercings to the moment we left and it was very unsettling. Mad I even actually tipped that fool. 2.)Got my belly pierced. It was pierced with a hoop which I didn't know until it was already in my skin. They had regular belly rings on display but never said anything about it. All I'm saying is now I have to walk around with this hoop in my belly for a month wishing it looked different read more

Overall I'd say I'm pleased with how my cover-up turned out. Previous tattoo does poke out in a few areas, however I'm sure a touch up could fix that. Some messy line work on one side, but again, a touch up could fix it. Price was very reasonable - if I remember correctly I paid $160. read more

This review is for Will, the man who owns this shop, and does the piercings (not sure if he also does tattoos). I originally wrote this review for World Class Tattoo also located in Berwyn only to find out that now there's a different owner, gee I wonder why? Will used to own World Class Tattoo, and now owns this shop. Please DO NOT go to Excalibur or World Class Tattoo under any circumstance at all! Avoid these places like the plague! I got an industrial piercing pierced by Will. It quickly got infected and formed a keloid that got bigger, and bigger and BIGGER! Believe it or not, it STILL continues to grow! (Please look at all of the pictures that I posted here to really see what my ear has become from this horrible place). I followed all of the aftercare instructions, and took good proper care of my industrial piercing. I now have this nasty, ugly, and very painful keloid on my ear that is extremely painful. It itches, it burns, it gets sharp stabbing pains very often. I can not sleep correctly, I can not brush my hair without hurting myself, I'm terrified to wear my hair up, and I constantly have to hide my ear. I now have to go to the dermatologist every month to get very painful steroid injections that are supposed to take the pain away, but only tone the pain down a notch for about a week. I would not wish this on my worst enemy. Please DO NOT go here, there's a very good chance that you may end up like me. Excalibur and World "Class" Tattoo that Will used to own, uses dirt cheap jewelry for your new piercings (I would not be surprised if the jewelry used here is purchased in cheap wholesale lots from China). I did some research and found out that the moron that pierced my industrial (Will) doesn't even have an APP license! This place is in NO means a professional or safe place to get yourself pierced. I must also add that at the same time that I got my industrial pierced, I also got my tongue, septum, and lip pierced by guess who? Will. Around the time that the keloid on my ear started to pop up, all of the other piercings that I got done by Will got infected. I ended up having to take all of them out. After my septum was done being healed from infection, I went to Chicago Tattoo where the piercer actually had an APP license (like your SUPPOSED TO). The piercer looked at where my septum was once pierced, and told me that my septum was pierced in the completely wrong location. Excalibur and Will's former shop World Class Tattoo are literally nightmares, I thank God that keloids didn't pop up all over the other piercings that I got done here that turned out to be infected. Please do your homework before getting ANY piercings, DO NOT go to this place!!!! read more

Will tattooed me on a Sunday and did a cover up of a butterfly tattoo I had. He was extremely rude and was talkative about his life problems and complaining about previous customers. He fucked up so bad my tattoo has shitty lines, bad coloring, and is scarred. I constantly wear long sleeves to cover it up because I'm so embarrassed of it. DO NOT go to this shop or give that man your money, he will fuck you over. read more

I've been getting tattoos and piercings from Will for 8+ years, and I wouldn't go to anyone else! He knows exactly what he is doing, and is always helpful and informative as to what to expect out of any new tattoo or piercing. Everything is always clean, and everything I have had done turns out great. I recommend him to all of my friends. read more

Ever try to remove a captive bead ring on your own, without 2 pairs of pliers and a prayer? Yeah, me neither, which brought me to Excalibur. Wasn't sure what to expect, but was hopeful due to the positive Yelp reviews, so I stopped in on a weekday afternoon. I explained my difficulty to Will (the owner) and he was helpful and pleasant. Professional service and good conversation. Place is clean; interior is sharp; atmosphere is comfortable. Will might give you a Clint Eastwood squint when you walk in, but don't take it personally. He's no nonsense. Cool dude. Nice place. read more

I went in here a little over a month ago to get an angel and my sisters name. not only was the owner very rude but the tattoo came out terrible. I cried when I got home because how terrible it looked. Thank God it was able to be fixed (down the street at world class HIGHLY RECOMMEND). i wouldn't recommend EXCALIBUR to my worst enemy :( read more

This place is small but everything looks nice n neat. We came in for an Industrial piercing n they did a grate job. They were also helpful in how to take care of it for the next 6 weeks. read more

AMAZING WORK DONE BY WILL! I went in today to get a "IT" inspired tattoo. Will was extremely kind and professional! He even put on IT for me to watch as a distraction! He does his work and then some!! I brought in a simple balloon drawing, and he added lots of shading that really brought piece together! i CANNOT wait to go back! The shop was very clean and new needles were used! It can't get any better! read more

Called twice to ask about parking, phone was answered and hung up right away, both times. Parking is confusing. There is no parking for this shop, you must ask the funeral home. Irritating. I walked in with a simple circle design. He says he doesn't have "small enough needles" and "circles are hard to do". Okay. It smelled of musty old moldy wood. Dark, dingy, and quiet. Not a fun environment. Will not go back or recommend to any friends or family. If you can't do a simple tattoo dude, good luck to ya. read more

Amazing place. I got my first non ear piercing there (I got my tongue) a couple weeks ago and so far it's the best thing ever. The piercer was so nice and joked with me and he used all new equipment. I highly recommend it and I plan on getting any piercings and tattoos there from now on. read more

So I went in here today thinking they had girl piercers, but they didn't. I wanted to get my nipps pierced so I would feel comfortable with a girl, but there was Will looking all ruff and playing the Simpsons tap out lol.....well the shop looked clean and Will seemed professional so I went through with it. The process was quick. I was in and out in 20 mins (10 of those were me walking to the gas station to use the ATM since they only accept cash). Over all the shop is great. I look forward to Will doing a cover up for me we already talked about ...He has a welcoming sarcasm to him lol very inviting read more

Absolutely love my piercing and my experience! Did my piercing no problem super awesome dude! And prices are super affordable!! Definitely coming back for more!! Thank you! read more

"I went in to ask about covering an old homemade tattoo I did about 30 years ago, ended up getting a nice cross that covered the old one up completely. Nice place, new needles and tubes opened up in front of me, clean and professional, I don't know if I would go anywhere else. Good conversation, good attitude. Will is a nice guy with a sense of humor. I will definitely recommend Excalibur Tattoo if anyone asks me for a great tattoo place." read more

Quick friendly service. The piercer was talkative which made my GF's daughter felt relaxed on her 1st piercing. The pricing for a nose piercing was $40 for the piercing and the jewelry. The parking situation stinks and only two seats inside to sit . We all know that more than two people usually come along. Other than that no complaints about anything else. read more

Awesome tattoo shop. Prices were cheap and the staff was really friendly. I wasn't sure what I wanted to get. I told the tattoo artist Chris my idea and he was able to draw it up. Ended up with a amazing tribal butterfly on my lower back. Definitely going back!! read more

I was very impressed by this place. Two years ago I got a tattoo of a Celtic cross which was drawn by an old friend who passed away 10 years ago. I was told that the original drawing was much too detailed and it would have to be very large to be able to get an exact replica, otherwise it would just end up looking like a blob in a few years. So the artist (I don't remember his name, but it wasn't Money Mike because Mike was working on another customer's tattoo when I was getting mine done) worked with me on how to at least get it close enough to the original. He made a drawing and after giving my input we tweaked it a bit to make it into what I was looking for. He was very nice and did a great job. Price paid was definitely worth it for the quality of work. I would definitely go back here again if I ever decide to get another tattoo! read more

terrible!!! ears got infected right after a week do not recommend. workers were so rude did not even bother to look at me and talk to me this place needs to be closed down read more

Got my nose pierced here the other day. It looks great! Will is a very funny guy! Would recommend to anyone!

Totally messed up my tattoo. Inexperienced artists. Had good reviews so i tried it, but it must be their friends writing those. Went to meridian line and darrell fixed it and made it look awesome. read more
