    Great day ..
    Patrick G.

    The fella just moved from Texas is the most accommodating service person that graced us. I wish all businesses were operated this way. Came with daughter she loved it- I may be the worst designer - but experience was great - thank you

    How awesome this store is so cute and they will also be opening a coffee shop next door! Not only can you paint but also have a nice cup of joe! The staff were so friendly and so kind, they gave us a tour and a sneak peak as to how the whole store runs! I really enjoyed the part that you have unlimited time and access to paint and stay until you finish your piece! I am really excited to come here and paint some beautiful projects!

    I had an amazing experience at this Clay Cafe. It is a family owned business with very nice owners. I went there on a Friday night and picked up a beautiful set of teapot and a mug. The process was smooth and I had a peaceful time. I was visiting the area and I highly recommended them anyone who is interested in painting clay! They didn't have the cafe or throwing wheel part open yet but I will definitely go back when I am in LA again!

    We just had my daughter's birthday party at Clay Cafe and they were amazing! The party host was awesome and so helpful with any and everything that was needed. The space is so cute so really not much else is needed. They cleaned up everything which was really appreciated. It was just so easy and I highly recommend for events or just to go and have a fun day of pottery painting!

    We had the sweetest experience at Clay Cafe. My 5-year-old came in with a very specific creative vision (as five-year-olds do!) and the owner, Santi, could not have been more patient or encouraging. He truly went out of his way to help her bring her idea to life -- talking through her plan, helping with techniques, and treating her like a real artist rather than rushing her along. You can feel the care in this place. It's thoughtful, warm, and clearly run by people who genuinely love what they do and love supporting kids' creativity. Such a special little business. We'll definitely be back.

    Had an excellent daytime date here painting some pottery with great tunes playing and an awesome staff. Tons of kitchenware and figure choices to paint on and the owners are really helpful teaching different methods if you wanna get creative. Cost of the item is what you pay. Paint, firing, etc is all included in the price. Awesome place for a birthday, paint party, date, or just chill relaxing hang spot. Love that it's family owned and can't wait to be a regular there.

    Stopped by as a walk-in and was greeted right away! The staff was super helpful, and they had such a great selection of pieces to choose from. I'll definitely be coming back!

    I love Clay Cafe! Not only is the staff so kind and friendly, they're talented too. I've gone three times and plan to go more. There's nothing better than spending a couple hours painting. They offer a large variety of ceramics to choose from and have tons of colors and tools. The staff seem genuinely happy to be there, which sets a really nice atmosphere. I know they're working on a coffee concept, which I think will be great. They let you bring drinks and snacks in which I appreciate. I want to try a class with them as well! I cannot recommend clay cafe more.

    Born to do art, forced to write emails...I know I've been saying this a lot (especially w/all the…read moregreat businesses I've found lately), but seriously I'm so happy this place exists. ARTime BARRO is part pottery studio, part community space, and is a relaxing, chill place where you can unleash the creativity you thought was dead, where your artistic spirit gets to come out to play, if only for just a little bit of time in this crazy world. On a recent weekend, I had the opportunity to take the One-Time Class, which is a one-hour course designed for complete beginners. You get to make two pieces, one by hand at the table and one on the pottery wheel. The class size was small (just 5 people) and we got great 1:1 instruction and guidance from our knowledgeable instructor Max. I've always wanted to try the wheel and was surprised how hard it was to use it but it was such a great experience that I think everyone should try at least once. After you sculpt your pieces, you are invited to come back to hand paint (glaze) your work at no additional cost. You can also have them do a one-color glaze for you, but after I saw all the multi-colored pieces of other folks previous to me, it was no contest to decide that I wanted to color my pieces myself. You have up to 3 months to come back to glaze so it's very doable in anyone's busy LA (corporate) lifestyle. Pricing was very reasonable for such a cool bespoke experience. There are a lot of pottery painting studios (e.g. Color Me Mine) but this is awesome bc you get to make the pottery AND color it later! I've already recommended this place to countless people!

    This place is amazing for pottery on the West side of LA!!! I can't recommend this place enough. I…read morebought a Groupon for 2 people and my best friend and I loved it! We even bought 4 wheel thrown classes to come back. The best part about these classes is they are smaller, 5 people go a group. You get to make 2 pieces per person - 1 hand shaped and 1 on the wheel. Definitely wear comfortable clothing! There is a parking lot in the back which is also really nice.

You can pick the color and glaze afterwards and get to see your masterpiece ready for pickup in about 6 weeks. Can't wait to go back and try another class!

The Color Me Mine in Beverly Hills was open on a Monday, and so I trekked out here to indulge my inner child. My *very* first job was at a Color Me Mine in Valencia in 2000, and it delights me that the franchises still look very much like they did back in the day. This location is clean and mostly well-equipped (they didn't have squeeze bottles for writing), and it was easy and straightforward to get started. The staff were friendly and helpful. I chose a cereal bowl (believe me, though, I was very tempted by the more whimsical ceramic pieces, such as the cat jar and the, uh, "beakers" :P ), and while I didn't originally have a design in mind, I was inspired by the tile wall to paint an ocean theme. I spent a few very pleasant hours glazing my bowl. I added a small ceramic boat and asked the staff (writing it in the notes on my slip) to glue it in the middle of the bowl. It turned out SO cute. And I will absolutely toot my own horn with the excellent glaze work :) Hehe

One for us cousins and one for my little sisters friends. It was pretty quiet in this location. Luckily we found parking right in front of the store.

Filming is welcome (a plus for capturing memories!), and parking is free right out front. Just note: the lot is pretty small, so I recommend arriving early to snag a spot. Our instructor was super informative and made sure to spend time with everyone in the class, walking us through every step of the process. It was hands-on and beginner-friendly, which made it all the more enjoyable. The only downside is the wait bc our finished bowls took about 6-8 weeks to be ready after shaping them on the wheel. But honestly, it was worth it--they turned out beautifully :')
