My son used the paint room and loved creating art and getting very messy. You can use waterguns filled with paint, drums to splatter and loads more stuff to create unique art. They provide crocs and coveralls to keep you clean

My daughter and I had a lovely experience doing pottery painting. We had a great time, lovely chilled atmosphere, very helpful and friendly staff. Loved our finished products too.

Me and a few friends popped by for a birthday celebration and it was super relaxed which honestly really worked for us. The price range of the pottery painting was decent and the variety of colours explained, where to find more should we need it. We weren’t rushed and stayed for multiple hours which allowed us to focus on making things we actually loved. Cute weekend activity!

Edit. Having seen the response I've removed another star for attitude and frankly, lying. Ultimately other craft cafes we have been too were just better. Better interaction. Better atmosphere. Better layout. Better signage of what was offerered/to be expected. Better explanations of how little you get in a drop in apparently. It's not like the drop in menu tells you " by the way, don't expect anyone to engage with you unless you've paid for some "guided experience' which isn't on this paper so you have to guess what happens" I've had more interaction with waiters in fast food shops. You clearly were more interested in the people who had paid for the other activities. They got conversation and you popped over for advice. We didn't , until we actively needed things like a wipe to clean the paint off a pebble as we'd made a mistake. Even *that* wasn't provided at the start. It's a hodge podge . Your fridge area , having checked again, is behind your counter AND behind a display of craft stuff facing sideways into the shop NOT facing customers or any table sat at the front of your "cafe". Even with a fridge there and hidden most places put these things called MENUS on tables or actually ask people what they would like. Waiting for paint to dry with a cup of tea is fine. Waiting to find out whether someone was going to offer us drinks or a menu or come sit and chat with us AS OTHER CRAFT CAFES DO was less pleasant. ---+++++---------++++------- Prices don't include even a single drink for the participant whether adult or child. They don't even offer a menu or ask if you want anything. You will have to pay extra for anything they have unlike other craft cafes which include a drink during the experience. No assistance or input from the "café" owner. We weren't offered food or drinks. It's not really a café. It's a space they can charge you a huge mark up on materials for. Maybe it's nice if you book as a group but for me and my daughter it was way less fun than doing it at home We did stone painting. 6.99 for two tiny pebbles. They didn't even make sure to stock good flat and wide stones. Daughter didn't get any hands on help or guidance so really if you're gonna be keft alone to do it and figure it out yourself, stay home. You have more freedom to make mistakes do other things as stuff dries, do more than two pebbles and have a cup of tea and it won't cost a dumb amount.
