Jolly Potters, Stoke-On-Trent

Pub closed February 2026

The Jolly Potters has four small seating rooms that are accessed from a central corridor that runs from the entrance to the patio beer garden at the rear. The bar with television and short serving counter is found in the left front where standard and premium keg is available. There are also four hand pumps, but only one was in operation drawing Bass. There is a dartboard in the front right area and at the rear is a fifth room that houses a pool table. Be aware that the doors open at 18:00 during the week and at 15:00 on Saturdays and Sundays. The friendly governor was painting a wall in the garden during a recent midweek visit just after opening. He asked me to give him a shout if anyone walked in, which I thought was great being as he didn’t know me from Adam. Some TLC is needed, but this place is worth a look for the historic interior, and the Bass was decent.
