Flying Saucers The Painting Pottery Cafe
Bristol, Somerset and BristolAbout Flying Saucers The Painting Pottery Cafe
Flying Saucers is Bristol's largest and only dedicated Painting Pottery Cafe. There are over 100 pottery items to choose from to sit and paint and once fired the items are fully usable! It's perfect for capturing your baby's footprints or toddler's hand-prints, or just letting creative kids of all ages make their own colourful masterpiece.
As the finished items are glazed, they are fully functional. So if the kids paint Grandma a teapot at Flying Saucers, she can use it and show it off to all her friends!
You don't need to have any great skill or ambition to make a work of art here, their luscious colour ranges and helpful staff will inspire you to get creative whatever your age or ability level. Personalised ceramics make for wonderful keepsakes of happy and messy days out with the kids!
Babies are more than welcome! They can provide bowls or jugs of hot water to warm baby food. There is a baby changing table too, so why not bring everybody and do hand-prints big and small!?
