The Painting Pottery Cafe — Local services in England

A fantastic little cafe serving simple but good drinks. The outstanding part of this cafe is the pottery painting (they also do throwing but I haven't tried that). The staff are amazing - very friendly and knowledgeable and happy to go out of their way to help. From choosing what to paint, how to plan and finally how to paint they will be as supportive or hands off as you need.

We had no one come over to see how we were doing or ask how we were getting on and that was an overall let down. Nice, but probably wouldn't return just based on the pricing and...

We had a lovely morning at The Painting Pottery Cafe. The staff were very helpful and there was plenty of choice when it came to picking what we wanted to paint, paint colours and brushes sponges, stamps etc.. too. I made a sparkly jellyfish as they had a glitter coat you can put on over the coloured paint and I can't wait so see how it turns out after it's been in the kiln. We were only visiting Brighton so we could choose to have our pottery delivered back home at a small cost each which I thought was brilliant!

I found it fairly accessible and was able to park my small mobility scooter inside and transfer to a chair, although I would recommend checking with them in advance if you are using a...
