Me and my friend had a great experience at Social Pottery Making. The instructor was extremely knowledgeable and made us feel comfortable even as beginners. The painting session was fun. All the staff are lovely and welcoming. Would definitely recommend to anyone interested.

Social Pottery helped us organize a beautiful pottery painting workshop for 30 students! Everyone had a great time. Chloe was especially helpful through the process, and extremely accommodating to all our requests! A must do for anyone looking for a nice decompression workshop!
KADRA made us feel so welcomed and gave us a tutorial at the beginning. She kept on checking up on us too. I ordered a hot chocolate with oat milk and it was really nice. Overall wholesome vibe 😊. Will 100% recommend this to friends and will come again🙌🏾🥳
Such a lovely Sunday afternoon spent here. Ying was so lovely and so helpful- she made sure we were happy, had what we needed, and ensured even when she left that we had everything. Would totally recommend!
Came here twice in the space of two weeks!!! Just shows how much I love this place , the staff are all incredible and so friendly I couldn’t recommend enough!! Made sure we had everything we needed and I had such great conversations with some will definitely see me again soon!
