They have a small classroom area which has a play village attached to it. Inside the village they have a diner, market place, doctors office, and all sorts of toys, puzzles, and games. They offer both open play and classes at location. Within the location they also have Elises nieces cafe, which features delicious coffees and desserts.

My daughter was not old enough to participate in the classes before the grand opening however we are just at the age to begin taking classes there. We took our first class this past Sunday and booked the 45 minute educational class and 45 minute open play. It was so easy to see the available classes and open play online and to see the theme each week. We booked in for the Dino class and arrived a few minutes early. For parking, you can park on Main Street for street parking (free) or utilize the CVS lot across the street. First impressions, the Schoolhouse Play & Cafe, was bright, light and airy. It was SO clean and you can tell each aspect of the play & cafe was so intentionally thought out and purposeful. I was so appreciatively of it also being a shoeless place. There were little cubbies to place your shoes and also coat racks to hang purses, bags or jackets. We were greeted by Miss Anna and Miss Dana. I loved how there were two instructors for the class and how they assisted each other throughout the class. It flowed very seamlessly. Since it was Dino week, the class incorporated different stories, activities, crafts with dinosaurs. I also appreciated the intention behind the lesson planning for the class. Some classes you can go to you are not sure what you are doing and this was complete opposite. There were instructions but also the ability for the little ones to be little ones and have movement, play and seated tasks. After the great lesson, we were welcomed into the open play space. It was so beautiful - even prettier than instragram. Even though it's brand new, you can tell it's a clean space and well maintained. I am extra appreciative of that because of all the germs, you can feel safe here with the cleanliness. My little one is a little past one and I felt the open play was great for her. There were so many new things to interact with without feeling overloaded and also peers ranging close to her age. I loved our first experience with Schoolhouse Play and Cafe and look forward to many more ahead! Highly recommend checking this place out with your little one(s)!!!!

As a first-time flyer, I was a mix of nervous and excited -- but from the moment I arrived, I felt completely at ease. My instructor, Yasin, was absolutely incredible. He was not only extremely knowledgeable and professional, but also patient, encouraging, and made me feel confident every step of the way. He explained everything clearly, answered all my questions, and ensured I felt comfortable in the cockpit before we even took off. This experience exceeded every expectation I had. I will 100% be returning for more lessons, and I highly recommend Farmingdale Aviation (and Yasin) to anyone who's ever dreamed of flying -- whether you're serious about becoming a pilot or just want to experience something unforgettable.

From the get go, the staff had been very helpful & courteous. They helped us bring the food from our car into the venue. When we arrived, everything was prepared already. Chairs matched the table covers & the place was clean & organized. Special shout-out to Gio, Kylie & Ariana who went above & beyond in making sure that we had the best party experience ever. I've been to a lot of party places & had organized birthday parties for my daughters, but Gold Fish Swim School is by far THE BEST. I think it's a requirement for those who work here to be EXTREMELY NICE because they all are. Lol. The staff made sure that we, as parents aren't stressed out & could get into "the moment" without having to worry what other stuff needs to be done. To the owner / CEO of Gold Fish, thank your lucky stars to have such hard working & just really nice people working for your company. I surely would love to celebrate another party here pretty soon.

There's no reviews for this place on yelp; which should've warned me from actually trying; but…read morelearning how to fly a plane isn't a common everyday thing people do - so I looked aside when I bought their 1 person flight lesson. Now I WISH I can tell you about the flight lesson; but I seriously couldn't because it's not possible for you to book a lesson. They won't call you back. My husband's bucket list of things he wanted to do included learning how to fly a plane. I wanted to get the flight lesson for him for his birthday AND fly it together with HIM ON his birthday. I emailed. I texted. I initially got messages back via text on questions answered. I bought a Groupon; and they told me there was a $100 surcharge for the student; and $50 surcharge for the passenger. Fine. This was already turning out more expensive then other schools in the area; but I had already committed and purchased their groupon and didn't want to go through the hassle of exchanging it. The lady told me I had to call her to leave a credit card to officially make a reservation. I said that's fine; I'll give her a call in a little bit. My little bit did turn out to be the next day. I called the next day and left a message. I called again 2 days later to leave another message. And 2 days later to leave another message. I texted. NO response. I emailed. Finally I receive a call back from an instructor saying the lady is in charged of reservation and he'll make sure she calls me. 4 days later; she still didn't. So I called again this morning - still no answer. She calls me back an hour later saying she's not in the office yet; and can't tell me if I can have the time slot OR take my credit card info; and that she'll call me later. It's now been 6 hours since THAT call; and I'm officially agitated. She even reprimanded me for not calling her to leave a cc number. Lady - I have my call logs; and I did call you - and leave you MULTIPLE messages. I hope business is so good for them that they don't need any new customers; and perhaps that is what it is. As for us; we'll never know if this was a good school or not; but warning - if you do see them on groupon - don't buy it. Don't bother buying it unless you call and can reach the people to actually book your flight; because you likely won't be able to.

I earned my instrument rating at Academy of Aviation almost 20 years ago, maybe more, and I'm…read morepretty sure that was around the time they first started. Even back then, it stood out as one of the best flight schools around, and what really impresses me is that they've remained steady and reliable all these years. A lot of flight schools come and go, but Academy of Aviation has stayed strong, which says a lot in this industry. If you're looking for a cheap flight school, this might not be the place--but that's a good thing. Too often, budget schools shut down without warning, leaving students stranded and out of options. Academy of Aviation has a well-maintained fleet, structured programs, and a solid reputation. Whether you're pursuing a career in aviation--military or civilian--or just flying for fun, this is the place to go. I'm not sure why it took me over two decades to write this, but I can say with confidence that this is one of the best schools I've trained at. I have great memories, especially from those early days when the owner was also my instructor. The training was thorough, professional, and effective, and I left with a strong foundation. About two years ago, I tried to rent a plane from them again after not flying for about 10 years. The process felt different, more geared toward structured student training rather than casual renters, which I've grown to accept. I flew with an instructor who was a bit wary about spins, and while I can't blame him--considering my long break from flying--I couldn't help but reflect on how the CFIs from my training days were probably more daring. Back then, they'd get excited, and I'd be the one nervous. These days, I understand the pressure instructors are under. One mistake can cost a career, and I respect that fully. While the experience of returning wasn't quite what I remembered, it doesn't take away from the fact that this school provides top-notch training. It's structured, professional, and results-driven. It may be costly, but you're paying for quality, safety, and real results. I would still give Academy of Aviation a 5-star rating and highly recommend it to anyone serious about flight training. Whether you are just starting out or looking to take your aviation journey to the next level, this school will set you up for success.

And throughout the course, Lisa's wealth of knowledge, passion, and genuine desire to help really carried through. She's also a bright ray of sunshine and we really appreciated her warmth and hospitality in what could feel like a long three day class otherwise. We had snacks and drinks, were able to move around freely, sit on the floor, sit on the yoga ball, there are squatty potties in each bathroom, I mean she literally thought of everything in trying to make this experience as comfortable and smooth for us as possible. With each class, we felt more and more confident and well equipped to welcome our baby and of course the added bonus in this being in-person is that we also loved connecting with other couples that we will continue to stay in touch with. I would highly recommend to any couple who's expecting no matter the kind of birth experience you envision for yourseleves.
