To Book your table give us a call on 0115 905 6029 or click on the book now link which will take you to our booking site. Please book the correct number of tables if you are a group of more than four people coming.
Are you planning activities for the Easter Holidays? Then look no further than a pottery painting session at Razzle Dazzle Pots. We are open Tuesdays to Saturdays 10am to 5.30pm. During this particular break we have a small amendment and that is that on Saturday 8th April 2023 we will be closed. This doesn't happen often but we haven't been able to change our plans because of events that are date specific. Apologies for any inconvenience that this may cause.
We will be open Tuesday to Friday on the first week and then Tuesday to Saturday after that. We recommend that you book a table to come - please always let us know how many will be coming so that we can ensure you have a table big enough.
You will notice now that there are now some booking options for longer painting sessions. If you aren't sure how long you will need go for the 2 hour session. This should be long enough.
We have created a longer 3 hour session for adult groups, we have learnt that when we have a group of 5 or more adults in painting they often get engrossed in their creations and the time flies by and before you know the next booking has arrived. This longer session, we hope will help alleviate this somewhat.
Please be aware of the time of your booking, both the start and end - this includes the time it has taken you to choose your pottery and decide what to paint on it! When it is busy we will likely have people arriving as you are finishing. We need to have a few minutes to clean your table and make it lovely again for the next booking. We therefore ask really nicely if you could put things away that you have been using.
We have many amazingly talented customers coming into the studio to paint their awesome designs. We don't always get a chance to get good pictures of the items before they whisked off home by their talented creators!
Here are few from the last few months. Maybe you will get some inspiration from them and create something great this Easter too.
The next dates for the Adult Me Time evenings are the 30th March (currently fully booked with a waiting list), 20th April & 18th May. These tables fill up fast, so if you want to come plan ahead and get booked in early.
Booking has changed our lives, well almost, but not going to lie it has changed the way we operate as a business. So with this in mind we now always recommend you booking your table before you arrive. Especially if you intend to come during a busy period such as a Saturday or during a school holiday.
It is very simple to book a table here at Razzle Dazzle - simply click the link that can be found on almost every page on our website or if that is not for you, give us a quick call on 0115 905 6029 during our opening hours of Tuesday to Saturday 10:00am to 5:30pm. We will be more than happy to find you a table at the closest time to when you would like to come.
One challenge that some people find when using the booking app is which table to choose - we recommend clicking the first option on the list which is - Choose Anyone Available - by doing this the app will display the times we have available and then allocate a table. Choosing a specific table can be troublesome and time consuming because the table may already be booked at the time you want to come but many other tables may in fact be available.
Top Tip - remember to double check the date before you press book now.
In the booking form there is the option to write a little note to us, please do! Please let us know how many people will be in your group - this includes both painters and non painters. This is so that we can ensure that you have a table big enough for you all to sit down at. Let us know if you would like to specifically be upstairs or down or if you have a special requirement like a quite space for someone with special needs etc.
During the week, Tuesday to Friday, when it is not a school holiday you should be fine with a walk in. However it does help us plan our day if we know who will be coming to the studio and when.
If you have been a customer from before the pandemic then you will know that we used to operate only on walk ins and we would try or best to fit people in often sharing tables and it being a bit of a squeeze at times. The lockdowns gave us time to rethink and restructure our operation and rethink the layout of the studios. Now with the booking app in place we do our best to give people their own table at a time that is good for them.
Sometimes life happens and you need to cancel your booking or change it to a different time. This can be done from the email that was sent to you at the time of the booking, if you can't find this (sometimes an email typo means you didn't get one) then please contact us either by phone, email or a message through social media. Cancelling your booking in good time means that we are able to offer the table to someone else.
Once a month we have our Adults Only Me Time Evenings. If you haven't heard of this before then read on. Our Me Times are an opportunity for you to come along for a pottery painting session in the evening. The session starts at 6:30pm and we generally kick people out by 9:30pm. Giving you more time to get stuck in to your designs and have a good natter to your friends at the same time.
The evening is very popular so it is vital you book in good time!
