We love the Pottery bar. It’s authentic and flavoursome compared to chain tapas restaurants and the staff know what they are doing. We are lucky to have such a local gem !

Lovely decor, amazing food, good service and lovely owners (remembered us from a few months ago). If you love tapas you HAVE to come here and the main menu is wonderful too. A real neighbourhood gem and worth a visit from much further afield!

Good food. Will go back. I had the Spanish tapas (as opposed to any Mexican, Brazilian or North African dishes also on the menu)and I thought there were good. My partner and his Brother had burgers and they thought these were just ok which is to be expected I guess, given that this is a tapas restaurant, not a burger place. Staff very nice but it took forever to be served despite it not being very busy. But we will go back. My partner wants to try the Spanish tapas. He liked my order better! :o)

The food was great! My children loved the atmosphere, very family friendly. They liked the board menu of desserts. They giggled when I asked for the menu and the waiter brought the big board and placed it on one of chairs. They find it hilarious. It was a good dine out experience. Thanks!

Great food especially the pork belly. Service a little lacking and we had to prompt the waiter for condiments, dessert menu and more drinks. Would highly recommend as the food far outweighs the slight lack of service

We were well looked after by all the staff we encountered. The wait for food once ordered was a little longer than expected, but the atmosphere was relaxed and drinks were still provided so this wasn't a great hardship. Food very tasty

The service needs improving here. One member of staff was very friendly, the rest gave the impression it was their first day with a very disconnected attitude and confused approach. As it was Mother's Day I asked for my wife's favourite cocktail but I was informed it wasn't on the list and it was a 'waste of time' for the bar staff to try to make it. The bill then doubled many of the items for no apparent reason and was wrong again the second time. They still added service charge without even a gesture to remove it. The beer selection is also very out of date. I won't be returning.

Pottery Bar had a lovely atmosphere and great decor, however our experience with the food was not so great. Having a special Mother’s Day menu was a good idea although it seemed the chef was out of his comfort zone. Furthermore the service was rather ad hoc and perculiar with single dishes being bought out and then the rest of our party having to wait 15minutes for the rest of our order to arrive. I hope this is just a 1 time issue and would like to go back to try their tapas menu
