We went to have a coffee and painted a soap dish while we were at it. The supplies and instructions were very clear and we enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere while painting. The paints need a couple of layers at least in order for the colours to come out properly. Thankfully they provide you with a colour palette so you have a better idea of what the colours will look like when they come out of the kiln. We were told to come and pick up the soap dishes in about seven days time. Can definitely recommend the Chye latte and a hot chocolate if you have a sweet tooth. There is a carpark outback as well, otherwise there are street parking nearby.

Really very impressed with this lovely pottery painting Cafe. Visited for the first time today, with a 1 year old, 6 year old, Great Granny and Granny and all thoroughly impressed. Lovely cosy and warm atmosphere as soon as you walk in the front door. Lots of friendly staff, very helpful and seemed genuinely happy to chat and help you.
Lots of different pottery pieces to choose from, and fairly priced too, the price is the final price for painting, drying etc. Didn't have to pay for your paint or brushes.
Tables all cleaned in between each set of people.
Toilets clean and easy to access, even if the hand dryer did seem a little old fashioned.
Food and drinks available, fairly priced and tasty too.
High chairs provided.
Will definitely be going again soon.

Loveliest little cafe ever! Went for Fridays with friends and just had the best time. Staff are super nice, there’s loads of options to pick what to paint and it takes only a week for it to be ready😊 they let you bring your own drinks and food too which is super helpful

It was a bit on the expensive side àt £22 for something like a race car which mostly ends up as a child's choice. Also, I didn't know until the last 5 minutes that they have fine line dispensers for some of the finer works, I wouldn't have wasted a good portion of our 1.5 hour time slot in painting the intricate stuff using a fine brush amidst a chaotic group of children and adults. I would go there for some quiet and therapeutic time, maybe with friends, and paint a piece over a cup of coffee. Now that I know the drill it will be more fruitful next time. Despite the few teething issues I still recommend it and plan to take full advantage of it next time.

My nieces love this place for the pottery element.
However, I went in for a panini and I was told it would be a 10 minute wait for food. Unfortunately, it was more like a 30 minute wait, which meant I had to take my food with me as we were running late for an event in the afternoon.
This does not take away from the fact that it is a nice place and clearly very popular and therefore very busy on a Saturday morning. But, I wish my experience was more positive.

Honestly had the best time! Such a cosy place with so many different pieces of pottery to paint. We pre-booked a table for 5 and they were even kind enough to accommodate us with a bit of extra time to ensure that we managed to finish our pieces! Will definitely be back!!

This was our visit and we were well pleased. Really friendly staff, explained the process well, and also accomodated our large group including two prams! The actual experience of painting these pots is quite relaxing and helps if you have had a stressful week! 😂

Brought my friend here who was visiting we had a wonderful afternoon painting pottery! A great selection of pottery to be painted and endless supplies, paints, sponges. Some of the brushes could do with replacing though, but I'm fussy because i paint as a hobby! The mugs turned out amazing and i can't stop using mine, it's my favourite mug and also because it's something my friend and i did together. Wonderful memories and a wonderful afternoon! Staff were welcoming and friendly!
