I have been trying to reach out to Classpop for the refund but they are just not responding to my emails or calls. This is unacceptable. I expect a response and refund because it was not my fault that the class got canceled.

Chef Harold was extremely informative and a great instructor. We really appreciated his time and attention to all of our questions. The only downside was initially. The music was pretty loud in the venue and it was hard to hear what the chef was saying. Eventually it was turned down and everything was so fun. I would recommend this to anyone. The venue was also very good with service at the counter. Their selection of brews was quite delightful!

They thought of everything! There were even some snacks (cheese, meats, and focaccia) to start and the water and soft drinks were free. It was set for 5 couples but one didn't show. My husband didn't know anyone before hand but quickly chatted and talked em with everyone. The pace of everything was great. We made dessert first. Then we made the salad with from scratch burrata cheese, marry me chicken and homemade fresh pasta. It was truly the best experience. The dessert was a layered red velvet cup with mascarpone cheese. It was heaven! The class was hands on and the staff were all so friendly. The space was clean and welcoming. Two bathrooms were inside the kitchen area. The menu can change per class so be sure to book what you like best. They offer a variety of classes and is not just for couples if you do the classic cooking class. Worth the price, hands down. So glad we came here and got to experience this. We will be back for sure!

We got demos for everything that wasn't made by us but enjoyed the foods that our chef chose for us to make, such as the burrata! We had wine, cheese, meat, and focaccia when we got there and made our dessert, burrata, and pasta before assembling the whole meal. There was plenty of food to take home and we left stuffed! Our class happened at the start of a snow storm so only about 14-16 out of 20 people came which helped create a more intimate setting.

Lovepop sells pop-up greeting cards and other paper products (e.g., wreaths, flowers, stickers, and…read moreornaments) for every occasion, including national and religious holidays, birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, graduations, retirements, friendships, get-well and sympathy moments, etcetera. For years, I have been buying pop-up cards from Lovepop, and their cards are my all-time favorite. Lovepop sells their products in other businesses, and they also have some of their own stores. Usually, I purchase their products through their website. Prices can be a little high, but the quality is also very high, so you get what you pay for. Also, Lovepop sells some retired products at a discount, such as several dollars for one greeting card. Most recently, I ordered two boxes of 6 paper roses from Lovepop for my godmother. Lovepop sold one box of 12 paper roses for $99, but the flowers would have to be mailed to me. I wanted the roses to be mailed directly to my godmother, so I ended up ordering two boxes of 6 paper roses, which could have a personalized message and be mailed directly. The total cost including tax was $137. This price might sound expensive, but the roses looked super-pretty and could last for years. The two packages took about 10 days to be delivered. This delivery timeframe was likely prolonged because of other customers' orders around Valentine's Day. My godmother emailed me to say that the roses were "beautiful" and that they touched her heart.
