MAKE YOUR OWN UNIQUE CERAMICS IN OUR PINCH POT CAFÉ

The Pinch Pot Café takes its name from the pinching technique, a simple method of shaping clay using only your fingers, without the use of a pottery wheel. At our Pinch Pot Café, the focus is on hand-building, where you can create small ceramics like bowls, cups, or sculptures at your own pace, guided by your creativity and our specially made tutorials.

This is not a structured workshop or a course, but a relaxed space where you can explore and enjoy the process, with our friendly staff available for guidance if needed. You have your table for 2 hours at a time and no prior experience is required, making it ideal for kids and adults alike — a chance to unplug and make something uniquely yours.

DISCOVER OUR PINCH POT TUTORIALS

At our pottery café, you get 2 hours to relax, create, and explore your ideas. Reserve a table, pay for the clay you use, and craft anything you like—cups, vases, small sculptures, or whatever inspires you! Need guidance? Our easy-to-follow tutorials are available to help spark your creativity.
