There is a "self guided" tour which means you can read the large posters describing how pottery is made and see a worker or two at work. The pottery is everyday dishes and bake wear at reasonable prices. The store was disappointing as it was full of pottery other than what was made locally including a lot of the made... More

Bennington Potters is fun to visit and see how the pottery is made. There are also some very unique pieces you can purchase. We've bought wedding gifts here.

The shop has a lot to choose from - dishes, flatware, table cloths, etc. Some of the items seem very overpriced. It is worth stopping by to see how they have things arranged - lots of good ideas. Tea towels and various smaller items are reasonably priced.

When you first enter...it is very " help yourself...Rustic". Since we grew up near this area, we always stop by and manage to find another gem for our country kitchen. The gals are very friendly...Many bargains on "seconds" ;....you know...a bit off in shape or color...That is what creates interest...Love this place.!!
