Had so much fun tattooing this girly pop Black Widow for the amazing Ella yesterday! 🫶🏻🎀

I’ve been inspired to create a glitter-tattoo girly pop series of flashes which I will be posting separately!

Following our Season of Colour post, we’ve decided to offer a discounted rate on all colour tattoos.

For the remainder of this month, all colour tattoos booked with us will receive 15% off.

Whether you’ve been dreaming of a vibrant floral piece, a bold traditional design, a delicate splash of colour or a full colour realism project, now is the perfect time to bring it to life.

Appointments are limited and this offer ends at midnight on the final day of the month.

To book, simply send us a message with your idea, preferred size and placement, and we’ll be happy to help.

A little update from us…

You may have noticed that we’ve been a little quieter than usual over the past few weeks.

Behind the scenes, we’ve been completely reimagining The Inkpot. What started as a refresh quickly became something much bigger, and with the recent heat slowing progress, our renovations have taken a little longer than we’d hoped.

Firstly, we’d like to say a heartfelt thank you for your patience, support and all the messages checking in on us. We really do appreciate it.

The Inkpot has always been more than just a café, and this next chapter reflects exactly what we’ve always envisioned. Alongside our speciality coffee and carefully curated clothing, you’ll now find a beautiful collection of thoughtfully chosen homeware and lifestyle pieces, all inspired by natural materials, timeless design and slow living.

We’re also introducing an exciting new drinks menu over the coming months, with everything from ceremonial matcha and handcrafted chai to mushroom coffees, botanical drinks and other seasonal favourites.

We’re hoping to reopen within the next couple of days, and we’ll announce the exact date across our social media as soon as everything is ready.

To celebrate, we’ll also be hosting an official Grand Reopening, with the Mayor joining us to mark the beginning of this exciting new chapter. We can’t wait to welcome everyone back through the doors.

Finally, as The Inkpot continues to grow, we’ve decided to split our social media.

This page will now be dedicated exclusively to tattoo studio updates, artwork and appointments.

If you’d like to keep up with everything happening in our café, clothing and home store, we’d love for you to follow our sister page:

That’s where you’ll find our new menus, product arrivals, events and all the exciting things we have planned.

Thank you for being part of our journey so far.

Here’s to the next chapter.

A boutique café and lifestyle space celebrating slow living, natural materials and beautifully made things.

‼️ IMPORTANT MESSAGE TO OUR CUSTOMERS! ‼️

We have had reports that the following page has been approaching people who are looking for tattoo work claiming they are operating from our studio.

We only have one artist in our shop, and any bookings will be made through this page. We will NEVER approach you from a separate page.

Please be careful out there guys, people’s depravity knows no bounds and scammers will do whatever they need to in order to get your money.

Caroline came to us all the way from Mozambique with a concept and a few designs, and this was the result. Was such a pleasure to tattoo, thank you for the trust and safe travels home!

Can you spot the Leopard?

New maker spotlight at The Inkpot 🖤

We’re really excited to welcome Wye Weave into the shop; handcrafted medieval-inspired metalwork created by Jess, right in the heart of the Wye Valley.

Drawing inspiration from Welsh folklore, dramatic landscapes and the rich heritage of the borderlands, her work blends fluid forms, bright gemstones, weaving and aged patinas into pieces that feel truly timeless. Every design is handcrafted with incredible care, combining ancient techniques with modern tools to create jewellery and adornments that feel organic, textured and entirely unique.

Jess also welcomes bespoke commissions, collaborating closely with clients to create one-of-a-kind pieces made specifically for the wearer.

These are the kind of pieces that stop people in their tracks; full of character, craftsmanship and story.

Now available to browse in-store at The Inkpot.

Check out her Etsy page too! Wyeweave.etsy.com

Monday Mother’s Mornings at The Inkpot 🤍

We understand it takes a village to raise a child and sometimes, you just need a space to sit, have a coffee, and connect with people who get it.

We’ll be opening our doors every Monday morning for a relaxed, welcoming space for mums and little ones to come together. There’ll be soft floor mats and plenty of toys to keep the children entertained, while you take a moment for yourself.

A calm, friendly environment to meet other mums, have a chat, and ease into the week.

Pop in, settle down, and stay as long as you like
