Had a wonderful time visiting the Walsall Leather Museum! The museum offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich history of leather production in Walsall, which has been a center for leather craftsmanship for centuries. The exhibits are well-organized and feature a variety of artifacts, from traditional tools to beautifully crafted leather goods. The museum also has a lovely shop where you can find unique leather products, perfect for gifts or a treat for yourself. One highlight was the opportunity to create a customized key ring right on the spot for just £0.60! You can choose your design and have your name added—it makes for a perfect keepsake. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable, adding to the enjoyable experience. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area!

My review is purely about the 5* hygiene rated cafe at the museum (located around the side). The cafè is called Claudia's Kitchen and the food is always amazing, the staff are polite🖒🏼 You have a wide range of choices from a selection of cakes and sandwiches, jacket potatoes, traditional Jamacian dishes like jerk chicken, rice n peas and much more; available on different days! The museum and cafè are both closed on Mondays and Sundays however open ever other day in the week😍 until around 5pm. The only downside for me is that there is no parking facilities close by to access cafè, except Tesco's where you only get 30mins free then spend £5 in Tesco's.

I was pleasantly surprised when I visited this museum. There was no entry fee, so completely free to learn about the history of leather in Walsall and the West Midlands. The museum is small but filled with history. Just a short walk from the town centre and the Walsall Rail Station. There is a small cafe on site so you can sit and eat. What I found is that a lot of people don't realise that there is a picnic area on one side of the building that is rarely visited. It is very easy to miss this gem if you are not looking, but worth the time to explore.

First time visiting here today and was pleasantly surprised. It's free! So worth visiting if your around the Walsall Town area. My girls got to make a key ring, which they had the choice of around 50 different designs to press. They got to use the machines and really enjoyed making a keep sake they can cherish. The staff are very welcoming and friendly. Was informed that they have a fair few craft workshops on, so well worth keeping an eye out for those. Will defiently be visiting again and will look into joining onto more of the craft sessions in the near future. All round, a nice little museum all about leather, great how it is free of...
