This sweet little art cafe is conveniently located in Yonge Sheppard Centre (by the Kin Kin Bakery). Easily accessible by TTC (Sheppard-Yonge Station). My sister and I decided to try this little spot to celebrate her birthday. Upon arrival, the friendly owners explained the concept (choose a ceramic piece and select your paints). You pay for each piece you select. They have an assortment of ceramics - from mugs to plates, animals and holiday themed pieces (Halloween pumpkins, Christmas trees, etc). I chose a cute lucky cat and my sister chose a charming floral container. The kind gentleman shared the cafe menus with us. We ordered refreshing fruit sodas and got to work. Shoutout to the Google Reviewer who mentioned the selection of brushes. I brought a few of my own fine tip brushes for smaller areas and hard-to-reach crevices. Once finished, your ceramics are collected and the Cafe will contact you when the pieces are finished. A fun way to show your artistic side in a calm and cute environment.

I found this place when looking for a nice activity in the area for my fiancée’s birthday. You have to make a reservation online but they do accommodate walk-ins if it’s not too busy. It was both of our first times painting pottery and we had such a great experience! They had many options of pre-made ceramics and we had a hard time choosing. I ended up choosing a mug and he chose a piggy bank. You get roughly 1h and 30 mins to paint but the time flies! This is a great place for a fun activity with a bigger group as well. They did offer drinks and snacks but we didn’t get any this time. We will definitely be coming back to add to our collection!

I had a wonderful time painting here with a friend! In my opinion, this is one of the most calm and aesthetic pottery painting stores in the GTA. I was also incredibly relieved that it wasn't busy, so we weren't restricted to a time limit (we painted for 5 hours!). The matcha latte and strawberry latte were decent; you can't expect the best from a pottery painting place. The pickup process was also seamless, as long as you remember to bring the paper slip (or have a photo). One complaint that I would make is about the variety of brushes; we found that the brushes were quite worn and there lacked a selection of super fine brushes for details. Otherwise, our experience at the cafe was great and I would definitely come back with friends for a nice day out!

One of the best experiences I’ve ever had! The staff were all very friendly and took the time to explain everything throughout the visit. In particular, Maggie was super helpful and was very attentive to my needs throughout the entire visit. The space was very clean and provided a relaxing, tranquil atmosphere. There were so many pieces to choose from and I loved the selection of pastel-like colours that they offered. On top of that, their food and drinks were delicious—a perfect complement to the overall experience. I would definitely recommend anyone, of any age, to drop by this place if you have the chance!

I’ve been to another ceramic place in Toronto and I loved the vibe of this place much more! I liked the other place as well but this is just my preference. This spot also sells their own coffees which is a plus for me! I made a reservation and came early in the morning even though the ceramic cafe is huge, with lots of seating. The space itself very well decorated and great for taking pics. On top of that, the customer service really stood out - friendly, helpful and attentive. You pick your item, which has the price written on it which includes the art studio fee (painting, firing the piece in the kiln, etc). Then, the world is your oyster. I hope they’ll have more everyday pieces like (plates for jewelry, smaller planters, ring holders for example). However, I know that the ceramics available to paint are frequently changing so I’m excited to revisit another time!
