We celebrated my sister and brother birthday here Saturday night. The bottle package was i guess…read morewhat should be expected for the location. First let me start with the server. She was good in the beginning but she never came back. We ordered hookah and she decided to give us whatever flavor she saw fit and claimed we never specified. But if that was the case why didnt she ask? Anyway we got the hookah and was told we get one free. When we asked her for a refill she said we have to order it downstairs because shes not the bartender. Then when we finally ordered it and paid in advance we didn't get our refill until 20 mins before it closed. And that was for 3 hookahs. The bar upstairs had nothing. NOTHING! Ginger ale was given to us in three cups like where the hell did yal get that from. Our VIP was on the second floor and was very roomy (empty af) which we didn't mind. Then they tried to close the 2nd floor early because it wasnt as packed as expected and kick us out of our V.I.P! Before all of that a couple of us went downstairs to party in the packed area. When we tried to go back up to get our things to leave this rude as security guard told the females in front of us that hes not letting us upstairs because its closed? My guy! money was spent very well let me get my things to leave. So after informing him of that this rude mofo says behind me "yal bitches think I'm supposed to be letting yal go when i said ita closed" needless to the yelling and cussing began. Im no ones bitch first of all and he needs to have some damn respect. So i got my things and left finally but not they were rushing us out after we were already leaving. Let me just say im from N.Y brooklyn to be exact and maybe sometimes i expect too much from the natives of the town im in however if you dont know how to deal with customer service then you dont need to be in this business. People are spending their money to keep your lights on and if they continue to do business as such then their days are definitely going to be numbered. Oh yeah did i mention that this is or more like a house renovated into a club? I admire the innovation but I also expect to get quality service for my quality money. Overall... i mean im basically rating the price of the bottle package for three stars. They coulda kept the nasty attitudes. Those littles badges they had on were getting to their heads. Humble yaselves guys.

BEST. WEDDING. EVER. A "great" rating is not enough to say how happy we were with everything at our…read morewedding. We worked with CBD, specifically Kelly, for our wedding at the Michener Art Museum in Doylestown. We can't stop raving about the night. First off, Kelly is INCREDIBLE. We genuinely would have been lost without her. She is patient, organized, and always willing to help. She was more of a wedding planner than a venue coordinator. I don't know how she does it! I would use CBD for another event just to get the opportunity to work with Kelly again. My husband and I cannot say enough positive things about her - thank you for everything, Kelly! You are amazing! Second, everything CBD provided was fantastic. From the food to the staff - all of it was just wonderful. We had numerous guests tell us how impressed they were with our hors d'oeuvres and entrees. The pork belly appetizer was awesome and people were still talking about our dumpling station the next day. We loved our entrees too! I wish there was a way I could order them again because they were delicious. The waitstaff and bartenders provided by CBD were also fantastic. Everyone was polite and willing to accommodate us - they really helped to make the night run as smoothly as possible. They were all professional and lovely. We hope they had a good time with us! Finally, our venue was simply gorgeous. We loved it from the second we saw it on our tour with Kelly. It was different from all the other weddings we've been to and many of our friends and family were very impressed. Our guests couldn't stop telling us how great the venue was throughout the night. We agree! It is a hidden gem that we got lucky more people did not know about. Plus, it is affordable! My husband and I still can't get over just how reasonable everything at CBD was especially for the quality of food and service we received. With a large event like this, often something goes wrong at the last minute that send things into a tailspin. My husband and I remarked at the end of the night that not a single thing went wrong with our wedding day. I feel a huge part of that is thanks to Kelly and the rest of the CBD staff. Thank you all so much for your hard work and help so that we could have the best day ever! You guys are the best!

First, Kristen is an absolute professional. Getting to work with her was one of the highlights of our wedding. She answered all of our questions (and trust me...we had questions!) quickly, thoroughly, and with warmth that made us feel like we were the only couple she was working with. I cannot recommend her enough. Second, CBD and Kristen offered us several different price levels for our wedding which was hugely helpful. We ended up choosing a less expensive package so that we could invite more guests given our budget. Third, CBD was wonderful about allergies. I am gluten and dairy free & several of my guests had severe allergies to other items. Everyone I talked to after the wedding said they felt taken care of! We had a wonderful experience and recommend them highly!

After seeing plenty of living social deals and "look what I painted" posts in various social media…read morenews feeds I knew I wanted to try a Paint Nite. Lucky for me, my boyfriend kindly surprised me with tickets to a Sunday night Paint Nite at St. Declan's Well where we were to paint a sunset scene with two dolphins and a palm tree. The night started at 7 PM, and they suggested you arrive 15 minutes early to set up. We were promptly greeted by Jess, our instructor for the night. The Paint Nite crew had taken over the back half of the bar with a blank canvas set up on a green table cloth for everyone. We selected two seats in the back, facing the opposite direction of the instructor- this wasn't a beg deal as we just turned our seats during instruction. Additionally Jess used a microphone and speaker so everyone could hear- this worked well, but I think it's time for Paint Nite to upgrade to a bit nicer of equipment. If you are coming with a bigger group- get there early so you can get seats together. I wish that Paint Nite would have done assigned seating. Some tables were overly crowded while others had room to share. After getting our cups of water and pumps of paint, we put on our aprons and started the class. At first we were a little nervous, but Jess led us through the entire thing and made it easy for anyone to participate. Jess took pictures throughout the night and later posted them on the company's facebook page which was nice. The bar was cool, but the service was horrible. The bar staff was rude and took way to long to fill orders. I don't think I would come back to this location for a Paint Nite. Overall this is a super unique activity and overall a great time sure to be filled with smiles, painted hands, and laughter. I can't wait to pick another painting and come again.

I'd seen Paint Nite deals floating around on Living Social and Groupon, so when a friend came to…read morevisit from out of down I decided to buy one and sign us up for a Sunday night painting party. When I originally bought the deal from Living Social, it was quickly cancelled, which was a disappointment. However, a few days later I noticed the deal on Groupon, so I bought it again - clearly there are some technical/promotional issues, but thankfully, this time it was on! We did a Sunday paint nite at Head House Crab & Oyster Co, on 2nd and South. The space was huge and the restaurant and bar were pretty dead on Sunday at 7pm, so I can understand why they'd welcome a crowd of 30 painters - especially when those painters are being encouraged to drink throughout the entire class. I understand the reciprocal relationship of Paint Nite using the space and encouraging people to buy drinks from the bar, but the pushiness was obvious and got a bit annoying after 2 hours. As for the class itself, we painted "Fireflies" - an abstract sort of image that is evidently their most popular piece. Although the instructions were vague at time, it was an "Easy" level painting, and so they came out fairly well. Perhaps the most interesting and fun part was to walk around and see how 30 different people could interpret the same scene so many different ways - although I have to admit, it inspired some artist envy! Overall, the novelty of painting your own masterpiece, while being able to sip drinks, makes for a fun night out, especially if you gather up a group to go. At $50 a person, I wouldn't pay full price, but there seems to be no shortage of half-price deals floating around on the inter webs. Not sure if I'll be a repeat customer, because really, what do you do with a bunch of giant hand painted canvases? Nevertheless, check it out yourself, eager to see more reviews up here!

When we tell people we were having our wedding reception at Reading Terminal Market, they were…read morealways a little surprised and their next reaction was "that is going to be SO COOL!" And after we had our wedding, our guest did nothing but rave about how fun, unique and perfect the reception was. But just having a reception at RTM is not what I'd recommend it. It was so much more. It was having the incredible variety of foods - we had cheesesteaks, DiNic's roast pork, Chinese food, a salad bar, poutine and corn dogs, grilled cheese from Meltkraft, the list goes on. It was having a historic and unique setting that was transformed into a beautiful evening even with string lights, candles, table clothes, decorations and provided an ambiance it'd be impossible to replicate anywhere else. It was the servers who attended to our guests every need, kept the party going, the room clean and the people happy. It was every little touch that the planning team executed perfectly for us, that all happened without us realizing it, without any reminders or questions. The planning team at All About Events were the true heroes of the night - and in fact, the whole planning process. We met with them about 15 months before our wedding, and Christina, Stevie and Liam made sure that everything was easy, fun and exciting. Christina's emails to us were always clear and thorough, addressing every little question I had asked, and pointing out tiny things I never would have thought of. Stevie's communication with our vendors was so appreciated, including our Mummers and DJ! And every time we met with them, the meetings were exciting, joyful. Their personalities and kindness and caring for us and our events just SHONE. We could not recommend RTM and AAE more. They are a truly wonderful team, and a gem in the Philadelphia wedding scene. I hope that we get to go to another event at the market soon, and we will certainly keep them in mind for our 10th anniversary vow renewal!!!!

The tram moved at a nice pace so you could really take in everything. So much to see - everywhere. It was a really fun way to spend a few hours on a rainy day! But I urge you to visit rain or shine!

Some of the items are truly impressive and there's definitely plenty for everyone to point out and find and enjoy. Highly recommend this fun attraction.
