The workers in the workers are worth the price of the admission money alone. They tell stories and chat as long as you like about what used to go on in the factory.
Excellent restaurant too, well worth a visit, food is superb.
Nice staff and really friendly.

Owner description:
For a unique experience and a very warm welcome, the stunning award winning new Wedgwood Museum is the place to visit - whether you just like looking at beautiful objects or have a specialist interest. We are the home of one of the most interesting ceramic collections in the world. Our galleries tell the story of Josiah Wedgwood, his family, and the company he founded two-and-a-half centuries ago.

Second visit - I really like the exhibits but there are some buts.
1. You don't have to pay £10 and see the visitor centre as well. It's £6 for the museum. This isn't apparent anywhere obvious at reception.
2. Take your own flask and sandwiches: tearoom was poor; dirty teapot. dry scone and a less than friendly waitress.

We visited the Museum and visitor centre - it was fabulous. They had face painting and an Easter egg hunt for the kids, great exhibits and the experience of seeing crafts experts perform their trade. The shop was also superb, as well as the factory outlet. We had a super time.

The Wedgwood Visitor Centre offers a range of things to see and do. The museum is interesting but takes a long time to go through if done thoroughly. Be prepared if you have children with you to keep them involved. There is a selection of pottery based activities to take part in and the people in charge offer lots of...
