Tattoo & Piercing in Toronto: Visiting XS on Queen Street West
By XS Team · November 1, 2026

Queen Street West has long been one of Toronto’s most creative streets, and it is home to XS Toronto — our flagship studio at 282 Queen Street West, steps from Osgoode and the Queen streetcar. If you are searching for a tattoo shop or piercing studio in downtown Toronto, here is what to know before you visit.
Three floors built around body art
The Toronto flagship spans three floors: fine body jewelry, apparel and local brands on the first floor; an open-concept tattoo studio with both open and private spaces on the second; and a third floor dedicated to developing emerging artists.
Walk-in piercings and tattoos
Walk-ins are welcome whenever availability allows — for a piercing, a jewelry change, a tattoo consultation or a same-day tattoo. For a guaranteed time, book your piercing online and choose XS Toronto.
Custom tattoos in Toronto
For custom work — fine line, black and grey, colour or cover-ups — send a tattoo request with your idea, placement, size and reference images. You can choose a Toronto artist on the form, and our team will follow up with next steps.
Hours and location
XS Toronto is open Monday to Thursday 10:00–22:00, Friday and Saturday 10:00–23:30, and Sunday 11:00–20:00 — late hours that fit after work or a night on Queen West. Call (416) 599-4848 with questions.
