Potteries Potions is a gift shop that sells licensed Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts merchandise. It was previously known as The Shop That Cannot Be Named in a reference to Voldemort from the Harry Potter books by author J.K.Rowling, but was rebranded Potteries Potions just a few weeks after it opened in October 2020.

The shop is on two floors with Wands, Collectables, Sweet & Chocolates downstairs and upstairs there is clothing and merchandise for all the houses.
Unfortunately, they do not have wheelchair access upstairs, but staff are able to get items for anyone requiring support.

"Whether you're a Hufflepuff, Gryffindor, Slytherin or Ravenclaw, there's something for you at Stoke-on-Trent's very own magical Harry Potter shop which is back open after lockdown.

Potteries Potions, on The Strand, Longton, is spread across two floors and sells an array of collectables, wands, Butterbeer and house-themed robes.

The store is owned by wizarding world fans and married couple Kay and Lee Burgess, from Weston Coyney, who launched their Potter paradise in October 2020.

Upstairs, you'll find house and Hogwarts clothing, as well as a section for Dobby and a dedicated forest area featuring Hagrid and his friends - but watch out for Aragog's spider babies!

Since the store first opened, the upstairs windows have been blacked out with a star print covering to maintain the magical atmosphere.

As well as the Potter memorabilia, the store has had its own branded merchandise - including mugs - handmade by Baldwins Gate-based Black Star Ceramics."
