Overall, reviews show a wide range of ceramics, colors, and painting options at Céramic Café, with a cozy cafe vibe that suits dates, family days, or a chill outing with friends. The activity is immersive and easy to spend hours on, though some note prices can be high and the quality of the final pieces can vary. Experience is boosted when staff are friendly and helpful, but reports of rude or inattentive service and uneven attention from staff appear in some visits. The café plus painting concept is highly praised, and many appreciate the ability to sip coffee while crafting, though service and seating can be slow. Reservations or planning ahead are often recommended as the place can get busy and pieces finish after about a week. Some critiques mention finish flaws such as fingerprints or glaze issues on completed pieces, suggesting hand washing to preserve durability. Despite these, the consensus is that the activity is enjoyable, creative, and a good value for the experience, with many planning to return.
such a nice & relaxing spot to paint with friends! they offer a nice range of ceramics ranging from statues to mugs, though the prices can get quite expensive. they have a lot of tools & paints at your disposition, everything is very easy to access. i come here all the time, it's the perfect place for artisty people who love chatting the day away while designing their own ceramics!
The experience is nice for group activity , however it took forever waiting to get our turns & when we got a text message that its our turn, & we got there they told us we have to wait an extra hour & that the message system went wrong, after explaining that we were not happy about that ,the girls where not very nice to us ! Also when we wanted to go get the ceramics , we waited for a long time too!
Had a great daughter mother date here today. Great food... although the hot chocolate can be improved. Such great selections of colors & ceramics & kind staff. I just felt it was a bit cramped. But will be back! Oh! Do try the brownies! Delicious 😋
The attention of the girls at the place was excellent when we went to paint our ceramic pieces, they explained the procedures very well, the food & drinks were very tasty. But a week after removing our pieces, the glaze was missing, I only used the mug twice but I'm afraid it will break, we called but they didn't give us any solution.
Je n'ai pas goûté les plats mais c'est avant tout l'expérience de peinture sur ceramic qui est incroyable !
Très Bonne organisation, bon service, un choix varié & vraiment une activité fun à faire
Very disappointed. Had gone to Ceramic Cafe a couple times before & never had these issues, maybe the waitress who took our table was new & didn’t know better, but 1) they made us pay for a ceramic that I picked out at the beginning but didn’t touch at all (previously they just wouldn’t charge you for it - & actually a few days later when I did the same with other friends this wasn’t an issue somehow: I had picked out 3 things, only painted 2, so they took off the 3rd item from the paper as they should). 2) the item I did paint, I got back chipped in multiple places, with the paint being see through in spots I know I went over 3 times. Maybe there was an accident & they dropped it, maybe the person handling it was a bit of a clutz, either way they should have disclosed the faults & given a refund. This is not the service & quality I expect. I feel scammed.
Nous allons souvent au Céramic café, le personnel est super accueillant & travaillant. L'activité est super le fun. Nous avons réservé pour une fête. Les enfants ont tous adorés & revenus de la fête avec un gros sourire. Tous les parents m'ont ensuite écris que leur enfant avait trop aimé la fête! Tout y était, déco, nappe, ballon, visite des fours, une personne attitrée à nous etc... il fallait juste apportez le gâteau. C'était simple & tout était pris en charge! Un immense merci à toute l'équipe du Céramic café
We had a great time at the Ceramic Cafe in Montreal! The staff were very friendly & helpful in explaining the process. The food & drinks are quite good. Lots of different pieces to pick from to paint. Lots of room & products for variously sized groups of all ages.
Our experience was overall great! There was a huge selection of ceramics to choose from & the pricing was extremely reasonable.
We did notice though, that a lot of colours were not available (most likely because other tables were using them) & the service was barely existent. We were given instructions & seated, but then never approached for drinks, food, additional questions (when other sections were).
Nous avons passé un bon moment au ceramic café !
Les seuls bémols seraient le manque de place quand on s'asseoir, c'est très serré ! & beaucoup de bruit
Definitely coming back!! Staff was very friendly & helpful! Lots of different ceramics to choose from & the good & drinks were also amazingly delicious. Super fun idea & had a great time here!
J'y reviendra bien sûr! Le personnel était tellement amicable & serviable, la nourriture & café aussi vraiment délicieux. Tellement amusant!
My granddaughter & I had a wonderful visit at the Ceramic Café. Considering COVID we had a perfect seat in an area by ourselves. All the staff are very helpful & friendly. The coffee & food is delicious. There is a wide selection of objects to paint & hundreds of colours to come up with an exciting creation.
