Honeypot Creative in Edinburgh, City of

Have been here a couple of times and had a great experience, loved making keepsakes with the kids, the staff do excellent baby foot and hand prints. Have recommended to all my friends and love our plates.

Recently visited Honey Pot to make christmas hand print baubles for my baby's 1st Christmas as I done 4 years ago for my first born. This is my 4th time coming here and would highly recommend. Juliet that runs the place is very friendly and helpful and always has time to help. The other staff that I have met have always been very approachable and friendly too. There is parking outside the shop which is helpful. There is a fantastic range of ceramics to choose from and great for different holidays (always lots of extra/different pieces for christmas and Halloween etc). Turnaround was 7-10 days to collect in what i can imagine is their busiest time of the year and items were ready to collect in 6 days. I also had a lovely slice of lemon cake whilst I was there. Thanks again for a lovely experience especially for my baby's 1st Christmas.

I tried the Christmas glass fusion evening. Lovely evening, relaxed and friendly. The studio has a great variety of evening and weekend classes. My first time visiting, but it won't be my last. Lovely spacious studio with plenty of knowledgeable staff. Brilliant cafe with hot drinks and cake. Gift shop also offers an amazing selection of gifts from local makers. Can't wait to visit during the day so I can also enjoy added outside scenery.

Took a group of 28 Guides on Weekday evening recently. Girls had a great time. Tables ready and beautiful fairylights when girls arrived. Juliet and Pat were wonderful. Great with the girls and very helpful. Collected all the ceramics a few days later. Would highly recommend.

Lovely ceramic cafe to spend a few hours relaxing and painting. Very chilled atmosphere with lovely views of bridge. Great coffee and baked good. Staff are lovely and really helpful. Highly recommend :)

Went for a Hen-Do and we all had a great time! Staff are lovely, and were very knowledgeable. The backdrop of the rail bridge is definitely an added bonus! Would highly recommend having a nosey crafts shop as well! Some gorgeous pieces! Also the coffees were fantastic! Thank you Honey Pot Creative! 💗

Spent a day painting in the garden underneath the rail bridge. Brilliant place to relax

I have been to the honeypot creative cafe a few time but most recently went for my sisters hen do. We had such a lovely time, lots of fun painting, some tasty lunch, and to top it off stunning views. It is such a special place with a welcoming and creative atmosphere. They did so much to help to make it a special occasion, even posting a paint at home kit for a friend who was unable to make it. Can’t recommend enough. I will be back again and again!!

We went to the honeypot as part of my sister’s hen. The cafe is beautiful and situated in such a scenic location. The staff were all so warm and friendly and we all had such a great time painting our pottery pieces! Everyone had such a fun time in a relaxing and beautiful setting! Thank you!

A nice place, where you can do crafts, I only had a coffee, it was good, the girls who took care of us very well, the stop was recommended.

A brilliant place! We had a lot of fun here. Friendly staff, good cafe options, it’s very chill so you don’t feel rushed. Beautiful views as well. Highly recommend.

Great coffee and cake, especially for those with furry friends

Lovely ceramic painting café The atmosphere is great and the view is amazing. The staff are super nice and the experience is always great Best to book a table in advance, especially at the weekend!

What a magical place. The first time we visited was just my daughter and myself. We loved it so much we came back a week later with my husband along for the experience. Wonderful staff with a wonderful collection of ceramics to choose from. The staff explained how everything worked and were constantly checking on us and praising our work. Such a lovely setting under the bridge. The whole experience was so peaceful and tranquil, and the coffee was pretty great too. What the staff had no idea about is that my daughter is going through an immensely difficult time at the moment. Not only did you give us wonderful service, you gave us an escape and peace for 2 hours, for which we are extremely grateful. And I must mention the quality of the glazing and firing of the items, The items look amazing and now take pride of place in our home. Thank you we will see you again very soon

Great time throwing down pottery. Very friendly staff.

Excellent bronze casting workshop today.

Fun place to paint pottery! You can get drinks like coffee and food like toasties here. Bring some headphones though if you like to paint in peace as people come here to chat a lot 😅

We called at the Honey pot creative cafe whilst staying in South Queensferry, excellent little craft shop selling various hand made bits and bobs.they also do studio sessions teaching several pottery based crafts. We bought several bits, but my wife left a bag containing her favorite jumper on the counter whilst paying, we didn't miss the jumper until we reached home, having racked our brains we worked out where the last place was that she had the jumper, we found the number on line and my wife gave them a ring - they were very helpful on the phone and posted the jumper back to my wife which made her very happy, thank you very much indeed for good old fashioned service.

Absolutely love this paw print of our dog Monty. It was super easy to do, the company were so friendly and responsive via instagram messenger as well. Highly recommend. Also, a bonus is that it is a small company - who wouldn’t want to support them?! Thank you 🤩

Had a great day on Easter at the Honey Pot! Would definitely recommend. Staff were very friendly and it was a nice, chilled atmosphere, with a great view and a cafe. Picked up our stuff and they look great! Will be back

A fantastic venue for a great few hours, with hot and cold food and drinks and a warm and friendly atmosphere! Would HIGHLY recommend!! Can't wait to get our Cows in the post!

Had a great experience here for my friends birthday. A group of us went to do the hand building and the staff were so friendly and helpful. We had a great time and will be back!

Excellent wee find for a cuppa with a lovely view.

Staff friendly and helpful, a fun 2 hours.

Stopped in for a coffee with my dog. Really friendly, helpful people. I had no idea there was so much going on here. Coffee was very nice and I keep meaning to go back to get a paw print done of my dog. An absolutely superb view of the scenery. Thankyou.

Lovely cafe/ pottery painting place. Service by the team was excellent

Wonderful experience having our family Paw prints and hand prints done. Our dog got diagnosed with cancer so these mean more than ever to us! They turned out beautifully! The customer service we received was amazing from start to finish! The team were very patient with us and our baby boy (dog). Very welcoming and we felt relaxed in the shop! I would highly recommend to anyone looking to get a keepsake of handprints/ pottery work! The finished product is amazing! We will cherish them forever!

Super cafe and pottery… Very friendly and helpful staff, good coffee… Fun

In one word: perfect! We booked a visit online to do clay imprints for our 9 week old baby. I’d recommend booking, as they suggest, as this meant they were expecting us and had everything ready to go when we arrived (ideal with a newborn)! We went mid week and mid morning which was also good for a newborn as they weren’t too busy. On arrival they were so friendly and patient, both with baby and I (I was incredibly indecisive about what prints I wanted to do and what colour etc. as there is lots to choose from). Luckily, they have examples to look at which was very helpful. The actual printing process itself was quick but equally done with a lot of care to make sure they turned out well! We received a text when they were ready for collection and the end result is amazing (the wait time for us was 6-8 weeks so keep this in mind if it is for a gift but actually this meant I’d forgotten what they would look like and was really excited to go and pick them up). Now we’ve collected them I can say they are amazing, finished with such care, and I know will be something I treasure for years to come. Thank you so much!

Good and worthwhile for a visit.

I painted santa and he didn't stop smiling! 🎅🤣

Lovely little spot, great for kids, lovely coffee

Lovely place to paint pottery and enjoy an afternoon. Staff really friendly and welcoming and the atmosphere was very nice. Definitely recommend to those with and without children ❤️

Lovely coffee and a really nggreat location to sit outside

Just stumbled across this whilst biking. Great little cafe but completely distracted by the pottery and crafts. They teach and will fire your creations. Amazing results. And all with this panoramic view of the Forth. Gonna have to come back and try this!

We visited at the end of a cycling trip from Falkirk. I nearly missed the place as it right at the end of the town but we were so pleased we went. Great views across the bridges and water. Friendly staff and nice food and drinks. The pottery around was interesting and seemed to offer a lot of activities if we lived or stayed nearby.

I have been here twice, once yesterday and once a year and half ago, and both times could not have been more lovely! The food is amazing, I recommend the toasties and the hot chocolate :) They have a great selection of pottery, glazes, brushes, sponges, and other tools. Staff are friendly and kind and other people in the shop are friendly and sometimes there are dogs! Owner was there when I visited and she was lovely as well! Do not miss this, its well worth the drive!!! (the view is incredible by the way) On wheelchair accessibility, there is gravel out front, however, I had no issues in my chair. There is a slight lip getting in, although the inside is completely level and they have an accessible bathroom! Doorways should accommodate any 18in chair, although I think a 20in chair wouldn't have issues. Very very very accessible place and a great activity for disabled folks <3

Such a lovely way to spend the morning, we made a cookie jar and a bowl, can't wait to see the finished results. Cafe was lovely too and kids enjoyed playing in the outdoor garden.

We took our 3 month old to the Honey Pot to do clay prints and hand prints. She was sleeping so we had a cuppa and a piece of cake while the staff prepped our clay. The view was spectacular. We went with the baby bundle, it was great value and we were able to mix and match what was included. Julia was amazing with our little one and we got some fabulous prints in clay and paint. We decided on the baby bundle. We would highly recommend Julia and the Honey Pot.

This was an amazing afternoon with the family. It was a birthday gift from the girls to myself, and I could not recommend it enough.. Phones down (apart from me taking photos).. Just conversation and giggles cake and coffee best afternoon with the family for a long time ... This is a must. I promise you won't be disappointed ...

What a pleasant welcome and great place to take in the views.

Cute place with a lovely view and friendly staff

Urokliwe miejsce z pięknym widokiem. Ciasta do wyboru. Kawa i herbata też. Można kupić sobie akcesoria do malowania ceramiki. Można zorganizować warsztaty malowania - wypalone rzeczy odbiera się tydzień później. Toaleta czysta. Taras z widokiem na most. Obsługa przemiła i bardzo pomocna. Polecam wizyte po spacerze.

I always park here and they've never complained :)

Such a fantastic place to go! We painted some ceramics and made clay handprints which were then beautifully painted by the staff. My kids are 2 and 5 and they had a wonderful time painting and eating yummy cake! We always come back here time and time again because of the wonderful views and such helpful and friendly staff. Book to go and you won’t be disappointed!!!

What a fantastic place. Took my grandchildren to paint ceramics and we all had such fun. Not overly crowded and staff so nice and helpful. Coffee was top notch.

Great place to paint pottery with a beautiful view over the water.

Fabulous experience. So friendly and helpful. Lots of different activities to choose from too. Nice coffee in a big mug and the best freshly egg mayo sandwich. Would highly recommend and we will be back.

My granddaughter had a lovely time. Staff excellent.

Great staff! We wandered in looking for a cuppa and a sandwich (both of which were good and a very reasonable price) after a chilly walk and ended up staying to paint Christmas baubles :D Particular highlight was being able to add our baby's hand print to the bauble with the expert help of Julie. Thank you for a lovely time!

Great fun. Great view. Lovely people.

Lovely friendly staff with great views right underneath the railbridge.

Visited 14/10 was a great experience, lovely little workshop with something for everyone. They have a cafe, a gift shop and of course the tables which you can book to do the activities. Staff are lovely and super helpful whether it's your first time or not. Would highly recommend and can't wait to see our finished products.

Pity there aren't more little gems like this one, love the concept as well. Plus great view of the Fourth rail bridge, practically underneath it.

Great find.. and possibly the best view!

A wee gem of a place to go, chill and keep the kids entertained. Coffee and cake is gorgeous with a good GF range. Not just for the kids though, they do a range of craft classes suitable for adults.

Fantastic family fun near the Forth Bridge: painting ceramics, teas, coffee, juice, toasties, cake and great views across the water, and a return visit to collect your kiln fired glazed creation :-)

Brilliant day, kids hadn't quite finished so staff gave us paint to take away so they could finish without rushing and will glaze when they are finished. Amazing service

Great ceramic options and friendly staff

Lovely location and cafe. Stopped in for lunch was good value

Lovely place and staff . recommend 100%

A crafter paradise!! Staff are friendly, good choice of ceramics and a variety of new skills to learn. Comes with good coffee, food and awesome views👌

Very pleasant place and really lovely staff. Sometimes you stumble upon a little gem.

Friendly staff and home baking with a gift shop on site selling hand made pottery.

Such an amazing place with great views and lovely staff, really was a wonderful experience and cannot recommend it highly enough

Great cafe, lovely staff, great view of the bridge out back too, they gave us plasters when one of my friends cut their foot so we decided pop in and it was well worth it :]

This is a great place to relax and enjoy something to eat! And the pottery is excellent the views are excellent, what more could you ask for! 😁 😁 😁

Had a nice couple of hours at Honey Pot with my daughter & my 2 grandaughters. Good choice of ceramics for the girls to choose from, load of paint choice on offer too. Nice coffee. Lovely staff. Good little gift shop. Great views, of the bridges & the Firth of Forth. A little gem of a place, well worth a visit, even if u dont have little ones with u. CV19 aware, felt safe. Whats not to like.👍

Lovely time having a coffee and painting our plate and cat with the family

Been there with each of our 3 sons and always been extremely happy with the creations, also a lovely spot for a coffee

Really nice, cute wee cafe! Service was really good and an amazing view of the bridges!! The cups of coffee are huge are lovely!!

This place was a pleasant surprise. Service was excellent and they were very patient with our pup who was getting a paw print. Coffee is the best in SQ, from someone who is very fussy. Lovely outside tables right under the Forth Rail Bridge. We’ll be back for some more pottery painting soon

Really nice and cosy Cafe, with amazing views of the Forth bridge! We went there as a group to decorate some mugs and it was so lovely, the staff were really helpful and there was plenty of guidance of how to paint, which for a beginner it was great! The coffee was also really high quality!

Such a gorgeous spot in Scotland, and so close to Edinburgh 🥰 very smartly delivered creative fun with great equipment in a lovely atmosphere 🦄 hopefully we make it there more times in the future 🎶

Such a friendly, relaxing place to visit!

Great service.and lovely for a walk

We had a fantastic visit with our 6 month old. The staff were so knowledgeable and friendly - we needed quite a lot of help to successfully get our little girl's hand prints on Christmas baubles we were decorating as gifts for our family. We were so pleased with the results and know they'll be treasured by their recipients! As a bonus the cake we had from the cafe was delicious and although we had specific ideas of what we were making today I look forward to bringing my little one again in the future to let her choose from the vast array of other items to paint when she is older.

Excellent location with amazing views. Really good cake. Lovely staff. We enjoyed our crafting so much we have booked to go back very soon. Absolutely delighted with the plate. Will treasure forever.

Really good definitely going back to do some more.

We had a wonderful time at the Honey Pot Cafe this morning making some Christmas presents for the grandparents! The staff were really lovely and helpful, especially when it came to doing the handprints with the little ones. Would definitely recommend!

Lovely place for coffee and cake while our youngest painted a VW microbus to be fired. The views or across the Forth towards Inchcolm Island are amazing as the sun drops towards the horizon.

Friendly staff, lovely coffee and home made cakes, combined with views of the Forth - what more could you ask!

Lovely staff and nice food it was my birthday the day I was here and the staff gave me a tea cake with a candle in it and it made my day the only sound you hear is the trains on the bridge and the waves on the beach such a peacefull place

Had a wonderful morning at the café today with our 4 week old daughter. The staff were so helpful and we have made some beautiful gifts with her hand and foot prints - yummy cranachan cake too!

Fabulous view, great location. Another good indie to support. Good venue for kids to be creative.

Friendly staff and well set up for social distancing. Kids love it

This is a hidden gem and we had a warm welcome

Super views on Forth and bridges- Soup v good and coffee better than the 'chain' stuff. Should be good spot for post walk recovery plus the toddlers will be kept amusec bythe hands on pottery creativity and painting.

The Honey Pot hosted a 5th birthday party for my little girl today. Great venue for a party and staff excellent. Recommended.

Lovely wee cafe, very friendly staff 😁

Such a disappointed visit. Would have loved this to become a regular spot for us, as the actual concept and location are fantastic, however the staff were unfriendly and rude. I felt unwelcomed (even though i was paying a lot of money to be there, i also enquired about using the establishment for an upcoming party) so there was potential for regular custom and loyalty. I was met with hostility and 'computer says no' attitude. We were reprimanded in front of other customers for things that their other staff had told us to action. Very unlikely to visit again.

Coffee excellent, great service. For children a must, painting Tobe done. Enjoy.

Lovely sandwich while we painted some ceramics, staff are super helpful. will stop for lunch again when we get a call to pick up our peices when they are ready x

Fantastic wee place, booked onto the Christmas wreath decorating class and it was great fun. Mulled wine and mice pies went down a treat and we had a blast creating our wreaths. Very highly recommended 😁

Food good and staff are lovely. Friend and I had lunch. No hassle for us taking our time though was quiet today. Looks like great spot for doing some creative ceramics, especially for children.

Kids loved it staff were more than perfect. Thanks for a great day.

Welcoming and well worth a visit.

Absolutely worth visiting! Friendly and cosy with a priceless view and the best chocolate cake......if I lived here it would be my regular spot. Thanks ladies.

Great place to go with kids, keeps them entertained for hours. Perhaps a little pricey??
