The Potions Cauldron is based on 9 ¾ Shambles York where the first known potion maker Phileas Fry came to York in 1335 to help the sick and needy. Fast forward over 600 years and now the magical apothecary is open daily selling potions and other magical gifts and souvenirs.
Having only opened this July, the Potions Academy is an enchanting new addition to Shambles, York. It is a place where the next generation of witches and wizards are taught their first spells. They have both Potions and Broom classes!
A family of four of our lucky readers will get to experience it for free!
