Went for Mother's day 2025 with my adult daughter and teenagers. It was fun and everyone found something to paint that sparked their interest. Mom's gift was quality time with all her kids together in one place. As they get older they scatter and they all do their own things. The oldest moves out & the teenagers are male & female (vinegar and water). Thank you for having a fun group activity that we can share together and enjoy a few precious hours of making memories. BONUS! We all have a precious momento from that day we can use over and over through the years. read more

Went here and had a terrible experience. I was helped by Brittany who seems like she's never talked to a human in her life before but somehow landed a job at this dead end ceramic painting shop that has such a weak and expensive selection I almost started painting my own face just to keep my self busy. Brittany if you are reading this, ask your self, do people deserve to be costumer serviced by you? The answer is no, there is enough cruelty in the world. I would rather burn my money into charcoal before spending another dime here. read more

Really enjoyed an afternoon with my 9 year old daughter here. It was our first time doing ceramic painting together. The staff was very helpful with all our questions. There were many different options available to paint- so many that it was hard to choose. We took our sweet time and didn't feel rushed at all. There is a little bit of sticker shock though, else we would love to do it more often. read more

My favorite local ceramics place. Less expensive than most, friendly relaxed vibe, and you typically don't need reservations. Staff is always incredibly nice. read more

Ceramicafe is so much fun! I took my mom and family for the Moms and Mimosas, their Mother's Day event, and we all had such a good time. We were able to bring in our own dinner and drink while we paint. A great selection, staff is super kind and helpful, and just an overall super fun experience. Highly recommend! read more

a fun concept and time to paint a decent variety of ready-to-fire ceramic pieces using a multitude of glaze colors. Makes for a fun date, kids activity, or pleasant way to try ceramic painting. The staff was rather friendly and helpful. They also seemed well educated about ceramics as a whole, but i'm no ceramics expert and wasn't looking to quiz them. Always had an understandable, helpful, constructive answer and there wasn't a single negative thing said. High praise to them all. on the other hand, the selection of ceramic pieces to choose to paint were a little pricy as a stand alone, but i found the experience well worth it. read more

On last Friday night, it was Mother/Son night @ their school. This meant that I had the honour of spending the evening with my daughter. I asked her what she wanted to do...she said mac and cheese for dinner (no surprise there), and to do a little painting. After dinner, we headed over to the Cafe. To make things better, when we got there we discovered one of her besties was there as well. They both had fun painting and talking ---this evening I picked up my daughter's Christmas ornament and also signed the family up for Harry Potter night on January 11th (**FREE PLUG**). I was the first to reserve a table. Looking forward to the themed pieces and snacks. read more

I loved this business before the the pandemic. However, they changed their practices drastically after they reopened. I am a VIP customer. This meant that I would get 20% off on pieces I purchased. They changed it to 10% after they reopened. I feel that business management shouldn't change existing customers that paid to become a VIP customer. The final straw for me was, if you couldn't finishing painting in 2 weeks, then they charge you $5 each time you come in to paint. I'm a person that takes my time on the painting technique. Some items I painted were quite intricate. If I could go in everyday for 14 days straight, I maybe could get it done. I don't have the time to come in everyday and spend hours painting. They could use the policy of 14 visits instead of 2 weeks straight. The last thing is the customer service. They have a few new employees that aren't trained. They don't understand about customer service, not the employees fault. Management needs to provide more training or at least have them working with an experienced employee not by themselves. read more

Great selection of pieces to paint, with no studio fee. Even without the Yelp coupon I used, this would still be a much better deal than the other local ceramic painting business. The staffed employee, Brittany, was very helpful and great at giving instructions. read more

Since both of my children LOVE to paint, we frequent this place. The staff is friendly, there is always plenty to choose from and it is clean.

I love this place! People are super friendly and they let you do what you want. Lots of great examples all over the place that can give you inspiration and the prices are great for good quality items. I love margarita madness nights to paint and their drinks are good. Provide drinks and chips and salsa free. Only takes a few days to get our stuff back. No paint limits or studio fees, just pay what you paint. read more

This is a perfect place for a creative date night or a rainy day with the kids. The staff are always cheerful and helpful. The prices are very reasonable, especially if you join the VIP club. It's definitely worth the membership price. We've been here at least a half dozen times and will continue to come back. Who doesn't have enough Sasquatch coffee mugs? read more

I want to thank Ceramicafe for helping me throw a great birthday party for my 1st grader. The staff was very helpful and friendly to both me in renting the 2 private rooms we used and instructing the kids in doing their painting project. Parents thanked me for the fun, unique time. Thank you again Ceramicafe. read more

Brittany was SO helpful!! My husband and I took our 3 month old to create platters with her foot prints as a present for her grandparents. My husband and I got the idea off Pinterest and are not artistically inclined whatsoever. Brittany helped sketch the design for us, painted our babies feet and stamped them on the plate!! I couldn't thank her enough for all her help. Going to pick the plates up in 5 days and will add pictures. read more

A really nice place that is inviting and the staff was great. First timer but they were helpful and informative. They have a lot of different prices and a great holiday assortment. As far as cost most items are fair in the prices and cheaper than some of the other places I researched. They include everything in the pricing which is great. Some of the larger items or more intricate pieces do ask a more expensive price but it's totally fun. Just waiting to get my piece back now. read more

Ceramicafe Art Lounge - Shelf with assorted pottery. - Paint-Your-Own Pottery Near Me - Beaverton, Oregon

While the facilities are decent and not too busy, I still considered it far too expensive for what we received. And honestly I find ot a bit insulting to ask for a tip when we are already asked to clean up after ourselves and basically serve ourselves. Why the tip then? They may want to reconsider their practices when there is so much competition in this category. read more

We've been coming here since we moved to the area three years ago. It's your typical ceramics place where you pick out what you want to paint, paint it, then leave it and they fire it up. In a few days, you come back and pick up your finished piece. Inventory can be down sometimes, thus not five stars. But otherwise, they've always been friendly and helpful here and it's a fun, indoor activity for those rainy days. We had a few girls here back when my daughter turned 10 and that was fun as well. Not so fun to be there when it's a crazy group of young kids, so you might choose to come back when there's not a party. It's basically like Petroglyphs, which is what we had in the Bay Area in California. I don't know if they still offer it, but if you plan to come more than once, check into their VIP program. It has paid off ten times over for us. read more

I've had a great experience every time I've gone here. Good selection of pottery, fun ideas displayed around, helpful tools and helpful staff. They are accommodating to individuals, adult groups and groups of kids. Plus they're right next to a Starbucks so you can get a coffee and then go work on your masterpiece. Great location in the murrayhill area. read more

Ceramicafe Art Lounge - Santa for the holidays! - Paint-Your-Own Pottery Near Me - Beaverton, Oregon

"You get what you get & don't throw a fit!" This place has always been so much fun to go to. Maybe some of the pieces are pricey, but it is a custom job. You can't put a price tag on a personalized gift. I love all the samples there, helps give me ideas. The staff has always been professional, informative & helpful. I like to pick a piece, then take it home and draw out my design with a pencil. Simply bring your piece back with the original receipt and then you can get painting. Planning ahead can help make your trip a lil more fun & a lil less overwhelming. In the past, they had fun theme nights that I haven't yet had a chance to partake in. Margaritas, chips & salsa paint nite? Yes please! read more

We love painting pottery here. We're VIP members, which makes a day out with four painting kids more affordable. VIP paid itself back in one visit. We love that you can pick your own and preorder from a catalog, too. read more

Great place!!! My kids love it! Tons of items to chose from, great prices and employees are so helpful and nice and great with kids and helping with ideas! Thanks!! read more

Definitely worth going. I will go again. It wasn't that busy and they were having a birthday party. Everything is around $20 to paint but some less and some a lot more. They provide everything for you and it's right next to Starbucks and food. I would recommend bringing your own aprons I wish we would have done that. Super relaxing time. I guess it takes 5 days to get it back glazed but we did a rush order. read more

Fun date night experience! Depending on what you purchase can range from inexpensive to quite spendy. Service was very pleasant.

I love this place! They have an amazing assortment of items to paint for a reasonable price. I appreciate how spacious the place is because I'm able to feel comfortable while I paint (even when I'm there for hours). I also like how many colors they offer and that they have stencils. The employees are friendly and helpful. Overall, it's a great experience and I look forward to going again :) read more

I had a bad experience at the Beaverton location. Staff were rude to me and my young child. We were there for a baby shower, my party shelled out quite a lot of money. Just before we left, my toddler moved a bit too close to the Christmas tree-which was overloaded with breakable ornaments. And surprise, surprise a small, unpainted ornament fell and broke. The staff, who had barely acknowledged us before that quickly moved in, like a drug dog, asking if we broke an ornament. Then to my surprise we were asked to pay for the unpainted ornament. What an insult. I cannot believe any reputable place, making that much money on our party would charge us for such a small loss. To make matters even worse. When I asked to talk to the manager, she was not at the site. I was directed to the Facebook page, told my comment would get attention there. I wrote twice about my bad experience, asking about their policy and never heard a word back! I told them I would be posting a comment here. Does anyone have anything to say now, an acknowledgement of the lousy experience I had at your business? read more

After reading the one review of this business I felt I should respond with my experiences... I have been here twice in the last 6 months and have nothing but complete praise for this business. Taking 2 active grandsons to make presents for their parents is not easy for this grandma but the manager was a blessing. She helped us every step of the way and was so patient with the boys and me. Both times I have been there it has been very busy and yet she still took great time with us. Hope this helps others. read more

Went there for Margarita Madness for a date last Friday night, called ahead because I was running late. Brittany had a table reserved for me when I got there. Was helped and given instructions. My date and I painted our pieces and I was done before my date. I looked around at the beautiful displayed pieces and asked Brittany if they were hers. She said most of them were. Had a lovely conversation with her, and she was very patient and allowed people extra time to finish. She didn't kick everyone out exactly on time as I would expect. I really appreciated that because my date was working on sketching out his idea for a long time and I was afraid he wasn't going to get done. Thanks Brittany for a lovely evening! read more

The response from the business owner, Krista C, to the baby shower 'incident' is enough to keep me away! I'm a business and would never elaborate on a situation such as this in a review, scary! The choices she made to open an hour early was the business owners to make and should not be considered a 'favor' or held against the paying customer. A simple sorry and thank you for coming in please, except our 15% discount if you choose to come back would've been professional and sufficient. A personal phone call, if you really needed to vent, Would've been more appropriate. Supervising every child at an event of any kind of size can be difficult at every single moment! Sounds like you need to hire a ceramica police person! read more

If it were not so expensive it would have 5 stars. But everything else about this place was great. My boyfriend and kiddos both enjoyed the experience immensely. It was a lot of fun to watch and help them. read more

So disappointed in their customer service. I called Thursday evening at 7:15pm to inquire about whether my piece was ready for pick-up, and was told yes, it was ready to go. Excitedly, I hopped into my car and began the 25 min drive to Ceramicafe. I arrived just after 7:40pm only to find that (contrary to their posted hours of operation which ended at 8pm on Thursday) they had closed early! The place was dark and no one answered the phone. I can't believe they would tell someone their piece is ready for pick-up and then close 20 minutes early. Wasted nearly on hour of my time driving there and back, not to mention the frustration and let down. read more

I keep coming back here because it has what I need: good music, good parking, lots of space, selection of projects and a Starbucks next door. Park, get a drink (or bring your own), check out the mosaic projects, decide you cannot deal with a new thing and go pick out a piece of pottery, hang with friends and putter away at your project. When you're done you can easily pop off to other plans and pick up your project 5 days later. I have tried a few of these places and have been underwhelmed with how crowded they were, the pricing, or the selection. I consistently go back to this one (though I live in NE) because it's the best one I've found. (Also, the girls who work there are amazing and know what they are doing. Love the blond girl who is from some rural area. She is consistently helpful with technique so my projects don't turn to crap.) read more

We love to come here. It got a great location next to Starbucks and subway. They are very nice and helpful.

This is the worst place I have ever attended for a birthday party. The manager at the beaverton location was unprofessional, as she was drinking her starbucks in the middle of a 6-7 yr. old birthday party! Then she took a object out of my daughters hand and told her she couldn't paint it. We know the arranger of the party and we were willing to pay extra for the piece. My daughter was crying as it was a Santa, who she just met yesterday, and who NEVER cried, she was crushed. The manager at this location needs to be retrained on customer service principals. She was aggressive, unapologetic, unpleasant, and even the mother complained and asked her to be nicer to the children. Which happened to be a large group of at least 15. Which in consideration is a bit of money, with that type of treatment we experienced, I wouldn't go if that manager is still there. It was a sad experience. I was in sales for over 15 years and that employee Britney would have been written up and put on a work plan and then fired! I would not want her representing me or my company. read more
