Old Time Pottery 10087 East Adamo Drive, Tampa, FL 33619

"This used to be a great place to shop for reasonable home décor and outdoor pottery. It's still very reasonable compared to other home stores. It's also a great place for holiday décor sales. The Halloween & Thanksgiving items are 75% off, and the Christmas items are 50% off as of January 2024. Unfortunately, this last visit was a mixture of the good and the ugly. The good was that they are stocking even more items than ever before. If you can't find it anywhere else for a good price, then you'll definitely find it here. The employees are always very nice & helpful. The ugly was the restroom situation. I should have known right away when I saw the dirty door leading into the restroom. I'm not exaggerating when I say it is absolutely atrocious. I certainly hope that the employees have their own private bathroom. To add insult to injury, they had no paper towels or toilet paper in the dispensers. Most likely because they were all rusted and falling apart. The toilet paper roll was just sitting on top of the toilet tank lid. The paper towel roll was by the sink. How many hands have touched these paper product rolls? It was horrifying! I had to use my own hand sanitizer after touching that towel roll. The only thing operational in that restroom was the soap dispenser on the wall. Honestly, I don't remember it ever being this unsanitary. I hope management can get with their corporate office to get a total renovation. It's very sad."

"Thank God I have all the memories of shopping there years ago before this place was sold. I brought so many family and friends over to this store from Lakeland. Today we had an appointment down the road in front of the fairgrounds. I have not been in this area for over 3 years. I asked my husband if we could go to the old Tyme Pottery, love that store, up till now. What a mess of a store. Didn't even have to ask if it got sold, you can tell. I was so disappointed. This place can't make up its mind about what you sell. They are all over the map. The prices are way overpriced for the quality of goods. The store was a huge mess. Will never return. It's sad to see it sold."

"This was only my second time visiting this store, and I was amazed at the variety of decorative and practical items they have. It is obvious that the employees here work very hard to keep everything stocked and attractive. I will definitely come here first for my decorative needs! I also liked their pet section. They have an assortment of plush pet beds, toys, and other goodies!"

"This place is nasty and prices are ridiculous.... look at this restroom, take care of your store and atleast make it decent enough for people to use... unacceptable.. I came here 2 months ago and restroom still looks like this.... I cant begin to explain how many different smells you will encounter here.. some awkward some nasty and some ok... this place is probably the worst maintained store ive been to and I go to walmart on occasion..."

"Haven't been here in years. The have a lot to offer but some of the prices are high but many options to choose from. I was a little thrown off when I checked out and my items were given to me in a black trash bag and not a shopping bag."
