Where we are
Diamond Mind Tattoo is at 53 Main St in Buzzards Bay, the village in Bourne that sits right at the Cape Cod Canal. We’ve been on Main Street since 2009, and Tim Creed has been tattooing since 1995.
We’re a small custom shop, not a corporate studio. Bring your idea, your references, or the old tattoo you want fixed, and we’ll work it out with you.
Parking: Park in the lot across the street from the shop. Street parking on Main St is usually fine outside of summer. Please don’t use the two spots in front of the second-hand store next door.
