Amazing place to come with your family! But be ready to stay for a 1-3 hours depending on what your doing there. We picked something more tricky to paint and my 5 year old took all of 3 hours to finish. No complaints though, this is a great place!

Brought the kids here for Fathers Day. It worked out really well. The variety of pottery to paint is huge. Some functional, some silly, all wonderful.The staff was that perfect balance of helpful when we needed it, and distant enough to let us enjoy a family moment. They also have a lot of non-ceramic art projects you can do, so Im sure Ill be coming back here for wonderfully keepsakes. Took about a week for the glazed items to get fired, and be ready for pickup.Very conveniently located on the walking mall in old town Winchester. Great to grab lunch, and then go get artistic!

Our pottery painting outing was so fun! Our guide was sweet and creative, and she didnt make fun of me when my painting took on a cotton candy vomit feeling. They accommodated our scheduling and made sure we had a delightful time. Take some friends and give the Polka Dot Pot a shot!

The polka dot pot is really fun! They have many different things to choose from to do. I have only done the pottery painting but I have been back several times. You just paint whatever piece you choose and they put it in the kiln for you and its ready in one week.

We have been to this place several times now and every time we absolutely love it. Theres always a different assortment of things to paint whether its whimsical to practical. That people that work there are always ready to lend a hand if you have any questions or want any help they are right there but they also give you the freedom to create

Amazing staff, they are full of knowledge and charisma. Even though this was our first visit it felt like going over to a friends house. They have so many things for the eye to see. What a great place for an interactive date night or group gathering. Definitely will be going back!

Low key relaxed and informal...at least on slower days. Might be a different story during school breaks or over the summer.

I took my kids on a rainy Thursday and had a great time!!! The staff who was there was friendly and helpful and didnt mind that we ran over on time and she had to stay a little later. (although I try to not inconvenience people this way ever) she was great! I would definitely go back again and the location on the old town walking mall is perfect!

We had my daughters birthday party at The Polka Dot Pot. It was such a neat place to have a kids party. Staff was super helpful and accommodating, we could not have felt more welcome. Highly recommend The Polka Dot Pot for both parties and just walking in for a fun activity!

Review №45

This would be a really great place, BUT if you come on a night that the old man is working, he will spoil all the fun! He was grumpy and flat out rude when people would ask questions. He wouldnt let the kids use more than 3 colors on their pottery, and he wasnt kind to the kids either. Come 5:00 (we had arrived at 3), he tried to kick us out and not allow us to finish our pottery (which was only a few minutes away from being done). It stinks that one bad employee can ruin an entire expeience. Next time i will go to Hands to Create in Front Royal, where the workers are friendly!!!
