I’ve visited this pub on many occasions since September. Moved to Worcester from Birmingham for my first year at University and just stepping stones away from my accommodation this gem has become my local. During these nerving times for most, the venue holds itself as the warmest atmosphere I have experienced in a local pub, the staff work extremely hard to make myself and my friends feel comfortable when visiting, the real ale is to die for and their pint of Guinness is the best in Worcester! The locals make us feel so welcome no matter what day of the week there is always a friendly face to talk too. Would definitely recommend visiting this riverside pub.

Our business is all about traditional steamed puddings! We produce a whole range of sweet, savoury and Christmas puddings in our small production kitchen. As well as producing we also have a very small kitchen cafe in our production unit, so you can pop in for great coffee, teas and hot steamed puddings. It's rather unique! Our range includes all your old favourites such as Spotted Dick, Treacle Sponge, Gorgeous Ginger to others such as Black & Blue, Banoffee etc. Remember school days with our 'Chocolate Concrete' or sample one of our traditionally made Steak & Kidney Suet puddings.
Fabulous find. Serving an extensive range of sweet and savoury puddings. There were three of us and we enjoyed a black and blue, Lord Randall and Worcestershire syrup pudding all with freshly made custard. Also we had a splendid cafetiere of fresh coffee. Can't recommend this place enough. Extremely friendly owners helped to make the visit extra special.

We had the best time last Friday at the Gin School. Everything was in place to make you feel safe in these strange times, but it didn't detract from the whole enjoyment of the evening. The building is very impressive and it was lovely to see the way the old Porcelaine works had been so sympathetically renovated and bough back into use. We were made to feel welcome and the hosts were both friendly and informative, guiding us through the whole process of both making and drinking Gin. The nice touch of a platter of savouries was most welcome and went a little way to soaking up the Gin!!!! Would recommend this to any Gin loving person, but make sure you have a taxi booked to get the best out of it..

We host groups of between 2 to 6 people whose aim it is to complete the game objective with 60 minutes. The idea is simple: we put you in a room and you have one hour to escape. There are a series of puzzles and codes hidden throughout the room which will help you achieve your ultimate goal - Escape.

Retroids spawned in 2018 and was born from a passion for all things arcade. With a heavy dose of nostalgia, a love of great beer and a desire to level up. We have evolved into an attraction within Worcester and offer original arcade gaming, pinball and an atmosphere like no other.
Spent an hour at Retroids and absolutely loved it!! Kids are all 11, so £5 per child for an hour’s worth of retro arcade fun was really money well spent! We’ll be back for sure!

I offer glass fusing classes for 1-6 people and Chris offers pottery wheel classes for 1-4 in Worcester. We are flexible on dates and times and we have combined courses too. You can throw and decorate pots or make glass jewellery, coasters, sun-catchers, decorations etc and we fire them in a kiln for you to collect (or postage at cost) at later date. Please see website for details. Enamelling too.
We went to a glass workshop at the end of October. Sarah offered us visors to wear instead of our masks, which was a great idea given the duration of the workshop. We felt safe throughout, with the set up allowing social distancing. Sarah was incredibly knowledgeable, encouraging, kind and helpful throughout the session, and I’d highly recommend the workshop for absolute beginners as well as those who do have some knowledge of glass fusing. We made 7 pieces in total between the two of us, and the overall experience is something we won’t forget - in a good way!

The Museum of Royal Worcester holds the largest collection of Worcester porcelain in the world. In recent years the Museum has undergone a major £1.7 million refurbishment supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund. Whilst being fresh and modern, the displays pay homage to a magnificent history and heritage. The Museum's galleries and showcases are swathed in sumptuous colours showing the collection off to its best advantage. With the recreation of the factory workshop and family parlour amongst some of the displays and high quality interactives there is something for everyone.
I was in Worcester with some spare time and an online search of museums brought up the Royal Worcester museum. I went along and was able to spend around an hour exploring this fascinating collection which starts with how China is made, designed and printed etc. It is a very colourful and superb collection in a spacious and light building. The staff are very friendly and e shop is excellent. There is also an adjacent café where you can get refreshment after your visit.

The City's Guildhall is a truly beautiful building which dates back to 1721. It has a fascinating history – it was once the seat of justice throughout the city and even housed a prison – and today offers both visitors and residents a glimpse of Worcester's rich and varied heritage.
If in Worcester for the Christmas Fayre worth popping in to see some addtional craft stalls and pop upstairs to view the ornate Hall
