Booking is highly advised as we love to accept walk-ins, but there is no guarantee we will have space at your chosen time - especially at busy times like the school holidays! Please book for the number people on the table not just painters so that everyone can have a seat. At least 50% of your booking need to be painters

You will only pay for the pottery you choose to paint on the day and any of our lovely cakes and refreshments you order. You can pick special glazing effects for an additional fee. Our pottery stock is always evolving, for this reason we do not have a set price list. Our pieces always range from £14 to £50. You will find the prices of our pottery on the bottom of each piece when you are choosing on the day.

Our regular opening hours are Thursday to Sunday 10am - 5pm We are a small independent business and sometimes we need to recharge our batteries and take the odd break. Social media and google will be updated if this is the case!

We are a pottery painting studio and not a Coffee Shop and when booking a table 50% of your party need to be painters. We pride ourselves on providing the best coffee from local Brazier Roasters and provide a full range of bespoke hot and cold drinks. We provide a daily changing selection of sweet and savoury treats to devour whilst you are painting.

We have a couple of Sip and Paint evening sessions every month for adults 18+ Please keep an eye on our website & socials to see these sessions online and see what dates are upcoming each month. Bring your own bubbles & snacks and enjoy a chilled creative evening with friends. There is £10 studio fee per person, all pottery you choose to paint on the evening is individually priced. Arrive at 6pm and sessions last for 3 hours.

Booking is essential as we run sessions throughout the day. If you are a little late for your session we will keep your table for 15 minutes but this will shorten your session painting time as we will be booked for new painters following your session and will need the table to be cleared and available for that time. We charge a no- show fee of £10 which will be taken from your card supplied at booking.

Your fired pottery will usually be ready within 10 days but this can be longer during holidays. We are open Thursday to Sunday for collections and you have a month to come and pick up your pieces. Your pottery will be under the name of the original booking, you will be given a collection card that we ask you to bring to collect your pottery.

We are more than happy to post your item to you we do charge packaging and postage according to the size of the piece you paint and although we take care to wrap your pottery as best we can, posting is at your own risk.

Everyone is welcome at Bisque & Fire please come and watch the kids get creative whilst you relax with a coffee. All we ask is that 50% of your party are painters during your booked session

Yes. Payment for your chosen bisque piece and initial session will be taken before starting. If you do not finish painting your pottery during your initial session, we can store it for you and you can return up to 3 times depending on the piece. There will be a £5 fee each time you return to paint. Non-painting persons, returning are also welcome if accompanying you paying the standard Studio fees. If your item is not collected, we are only able to keep your pottery for one month, so please bear this in mind and keep in touch with us if you wish to return.
