In the heart of Meir Park, this pub is amazing. The food comes to you very quickly, and you have an amazing choice of seating. The portions are big, ans they are big on flavour.

The Potters Bar over the years has gone from strength to strength and is the heart of the community hosting events that we have in the past attended as well as regular entertainment for not only the locals but anyone that wants a good night out. We had to pop in to try the new menu and without a doubt is hasn't disappointed yet again. The food is amazing, tasty and most importantly the quality has definitely been enhanced. We would definitely recommend the brie dippers and chicken goujons for a quick starter and the nachos are definitely on the list for not only a starter but as a snack when we are next in for a drink or two. Having looked at the new "grazers menu" too we can't wait to try out the vast array of snacks on offer. In the past we have always picked the jumbo prawns and are so happy they are still on the menu - highly recommended alongside the chicken wings. As for the main menu alongside the pizza menu it's is colourful and has such a variety I don't think anyone will be disappointed. We went for the new burgers and as you can see the portion of seasoned fries alongside them is huge. A certain chicken takeaway definitely will have a run for their money with the new Ultimate Chicken Burger on offer. It was so tasty I will certainly be ordering it again and again. Traditional menu options are still available and we also like how the lunch club will still be available for a lighter bite should we wish to pop in one day. It's safe to say we will definitely be eating more here if the food is as good as it was the other day. Compliments to the chef

Great community pub with friendly, hard-working and welcoming staff. The food and drinks are great value for money. This pub hosts lots of family events which my 4 year old loves! The quiz night is fantastic and the bands on a Saturday make for a great night out with a fantastic atmosphere. Every meal I’ve had here has been delicious. Would highly recommend!

So refreshing to find a pub that welcomes dogs. We've not been into the Potters for a long time, but there has been a change in management and now its completely different...welcoming, friendly. The drinks were good, obviously the cellar is managed well, and priced amazingly. We'll be trying food next time we visit.

The landlord and his team are out of this world, they go above and beyond a community pub. They have worked hard to make this pub a warm and welcome place to bring anyone of any age. You get a real sense of community just talking to management, they love what they do and are always trying to raise themselves and their team up.

B. M.

We decided to celebrate our sons 18th at our local and weren't disappointed. Nat, Dan and the team did a great job even though they had had a really busy day. The buffet was amazing value and went down really well. Thanks again!

P. A.

I go to the Potters bar pub about once a week. Good range of lagers beers and real ales at reasonable prices. Food is very good and well presented at a good price and staff are always friendly. Like to watch live music and glad to see groups back playing.

J. H.

I’m a regular here . Doesn’t make sense that 30% offer on food is being promoted and only 1 staff running around like a headless chicken trying to serve drinks and food orders . We saw people leave as waiting to long to be served. Surely more staff should be on when they are promoting offers . This happened on 2 consecutive days from what others locals were saying. The thing is the pub wasn’t that busy either but locals queuing for drinks for approximately 15 minutes. Poor staff you can only do your best .

V. A.

We love the Potters as it’s our local pub and we always feel happy, comfortable and welcomed. Food has improved massively but some days are better than others which is understandable as there probably are different chefs on. The only negative feedback we can give is the times of waiting. This seems to be down to lack of floor staff and the woman who is always there seems rushed and over worked. We had 3 courses and waiting for a while between then, particularly the desserts and was in nearly 3 hours in total between foods. Also plates weren’t cleared between courses and there are no curtesy checks to check if all is ok. Again, this appears to be lack of floor staff in a very busy pub. Would normally put us off anywhere else but we know this differs depending on what day you go and are always happy and comfortable. Overall, pub is fab, great choice on menu, polite and friendly staff and manager Dan takes pride in his pub. Overall would recommend.

C. O.

Fantastic and friendly place to go especially Thursday night for the quiz and I also enjoy a Saturday night as the venue has some great bands, the new menus is amazing and the staff are so efficient, especially Nat who is the head chef, she goes out of her way for everyone and makes a cracking Sunday dinner might I add. Well done to everyone there who have created a super community spirited pub.

C. K.

Really good food, lovely staff. Steak was cooked medium well when I asked for rare but still very tasty. Lovely outdoor area and will definitely become regulars.

M. I.

Friendly staff and very professional, made to feel welcome the food was very good, great value for money and great tasting. Very happy with the level of quality and service would definatly come again and recommend to friends and family

R. H.

Recently visited as a carer with a service user. Dan and the team were very accommodating and when we had to leave due to the service user becoming overwhelmed our food was boxed up to take away. Would definitely recommend!

J. W.

Lunchtime menu is a varied menu .smaller portions available which suits as theres enough to fill and even room to try tasty dessert. Staff are pleasant and helpful always.well recommended

D. M.

We held my son’s 5th birthday party at the Potters Bar. I can’t praise them enough. Food was lovely, my son had a fantastic party. Thank-you to all the staff.

S. R.

This bar couldn’t be any better, Dan is a great person who has a fantastic team !! I have performed here for various charity events and as I only live locally I frequent the bar a lot with my children! It’s clean, family friendly and always serves amazing food. Best place in stoke without a doubt! Thank you for being an amazing pillar of the community xx

M. R.

A great pub. Friendly staff, good choice of drinks and food. They provide a Gluten Free Beer. The Quiz night on Thursday is brilliant.

Just been the potters bar for food this time on the 12th of January 2022. A lovely evening was had we had food this time and it was really looking food. We both had different burgers but were both of good quality and we really enjoyed them. A lovely relaxing evening was had. Good beers and friendly staff.

J. C.

Really cant fault them one bit! After our venue cancelled on us a week before we were due to get married with such short notice they managed to pull off a great evening and decorated so perfectly, the food was amazing and our guests had a really good time, thank you so much to nat she did an amazing job!

L. R.

We had a good time. We said so cause Dan asked us to say this on quiz night Thursday 🤣

S. O.

Cracking pint... Good selection of beer ales ciders..Good prices aswell

w. b.

Fantastic atmosphere and lovely food. The staff are very friendly too.

L. S.

Normally I'd give 5stars but this weekend service was soo slow, 25 mins a time to get a drink and first one was wrong. It won't stop me going but order 2 drinks per person when you go and when you finish your first order another.

c. s.

Friendly staff, brilliant entertainment,

R. M.

First time for us going to potters bar ,very disappointed with the Sunday lunch I had but my son & hubby enjoyed there meals would I go again ? Yes but won't be ordering the Sunday lunch again

H. P.

The staff were lovely and very helpful and the food was also of good quality for the price.

g. h.

Lovely food,had spare ribs well a plate full great.the breakfast very good value

N. C.

The Potter's Bar catered for my late wife's wake. I have to say the I could not fault the service Dan and his staff provided. Part of the bar was sectioned off for our convenience, the food provided was excellent and at a very competitive price. Highly recommended

a. f.

Good atmosphere lovely staff, and the food is lovely too. Plenty of space which is good for wheelchair users.

P. A.

Comfortable pub, nice food and drink at a good price staff very polite would go again.

m. r. r.

ace quiz night. lovely pub!

D. R.

The service was good, the staff being pleasant and helpful. It was pretty quiet when we went but the place was really hot inside with no air con. The food was less than good I'm afraid. We were served chips instead of fries, the "salted caramel bbq beef" was laced with chilli so I had to swap with mine for my husband's fish and chips, which wasn't the best I'd tasted. Definitely will not go back.

S. D.

Good place for a drink, friendly bar staff, nice covered smoking area. Food is good, although the recent menu changes have removed all my old favourites. Pub quiz on Thursdays are always fun.

M. B.

Stopped going when they stopped their lunchtime deal recently. Staff always pleasant but managers are power mad. Lording it up. Felt like an outsider. Not a brilliant atmosphere. Food average but expected with it being cheapish. Most things microwaved. Gordon Ramsay would have a meltdown here.

Y. W.

Nice staff and drink was ok

R. C.

Been a few times for lunch... Food is good and brilliant value for money

S. T.

Staff very helpful, food good, drinks a little slow to serve but cant be helped I guess due to the current circumstances

J. B.

Cheap and cheerful, however over the 10 times I have been there has been a problem with under cooked food 3 times. Still though the price makes up for it. Great for a quick bite of dinner. Thank you for the food.

S. M.

Warm Friendly and welcoming. Lots for the little ones. Superb choice of drinks available. Good food and Sunday roast too. Quirky little booths with tv . Suitable for all ages .Loved it.

g.

Great staff and great food.

J. H.

Went in today for the first time in years. It was 11:30 and we didn't realise the kitchen didn't opened til 12. We ordered some food with a lovely young man called Matthew, he also hadn't realised it was not 12. He brought our coffees to our table and apologiesed that he hadn't realised it wasn't 12 but he informed us the chef was booting up all the kitchen equipment for us and it would be about 20mins wait. It was so worth the wait, our all day breakfasts were absolutely A1 delicious, our service second to none that we had had anywhere. Totally charming young man and a perfect meal. Definitely will be back so I hope the kitchen staff don't change and hopefully meet Matthew again.5*****

s. o.

Lovely local in a nice area with very nice food

K. S.

Only recently started to go to this pub. Food is spot on. Entertainment is great. Sports really draws a crowd. I will visit again. Food is a little more expensive than surrounding pubs, but it's worth paying more.

D. B.

Nice pint, food 👌 😋 👍 not if you like fresh food...

B. O.

D. E.

Polite staff & quick to serve ,clean pub, food was good BUT ....while the pub was upto 1/2 empty and with 4 staff on, it seemed the staff were on a go slow to clearing plates & glasses ..i meen a good 1/2 hr to clear.plates and had 3 rounds of glasses on the table when we left .. so a training excersise in waiting on tables would be a good idea ...

J. H.

This place is the perfect value for money place. Atmosphere very pleasant and staff are amazing. I haven't been as much recently, but next month I will be back to at least once a week.

B. B.

Friendly efficient staff, nice venue

C. M.

A. R.

Always bands etc on and have a lovely time, nice staff

L. A.

Best pub quiz going.

S. T.

Lovely food & service but they forgot about my daughters desert so we ad to wait alittle longer than we expected for a desert that was really a quick n easy choice that she was looking forward too ..a chocolate brownie with cream only needs to be placed in a child's dish .there is no cooking nor baking nor warming/heating up to be done as it is a desert that can be made cooked & stored for a fair few hours per day xxx

j. d.

First time going and used the kids booth for a meal with my family kids loved it and so did we excellent service and the burgers were lovely going again soon.

J. M.

Pub is under new management, food is fantastic and the service is 'award winning' The new Landlady has control of the pub once again, no kids running around screaming or 21 years olds swearing and fighting. Regular entertainment starts next month (we cant wait) Hats off to Marstons, you finally got it right!

I. P.

Slow service, but good food when served. Good choice on the menu. Lunch club 12noon until 3pm Monday till Saturday.

a. b.

Had a very good pizza in the garden, very good staff , but need to invest in a good corkscrew

D. M.

serve's a decent pint at a good price and there's plenty of real ales to choose from. food is mediocre, stick to the grill and you will generally get a good meal.

C. R.

Food was good. They made the changes to the menu we asked for no problem. Friendly helpful staff.

C. W.

B. G.

New management very nice people the potters is always found to be a clean comfortable warm and friendly pub with good food and atmosphere you shouldn't take my word for it .... try it .. I don't think you will be disappointed....

J. B.

Typical big estate pub. Big car park. Nothing to set it apart from any other pub. Not a lot wrong with it just nothing to make you return.

S. F.

Enjoyed a meal at Potters Bar. But weather was very cold and damp. Will go again .Good service

D. D.

Typical pub food, looks like an old English pub has a pub quiz etc, no play area for kids though kids welcome. Guest ales and the usual suspects like carling and magners. It's OK for lunch

L. R.

The young waitress was brilliant although a menu was given a few came our wrong a bit low on the chips and sides
