Things to Consider
  • The inside of my cup has a lot of debris (I didn't paint/leave any in) when I got it back, to the point idk if I'd like to drink out of it bc it's not a smooth/nonporous surface that can be cleaned appropriately? I'm not sure, but it's a little disappointing seeing it after the work I put into it.

A group of us came for a ladies night get together and we had so much fun! They had a table for us to put our own snacks on and the lady working was so helpful with everything from how to do different techniques to selecting which paints would go best with what we were wanting to do. I used some of their specialty paints and loved how my mug turned out!

I forgot who it was that helped us, but she was so kind and patient. We really underestimated how much time we would take (we planned for 1.5 hours, and it took us 3 hours because we got so into it), and I felt so bad for staying a bit past closing, but the worker was really understanding. She just started cleaning around us and let me finish quickly. She didn't make me feel bad, and I really appreciate her for that. The experience is so cute. A great date spot! I recommend it!

Update 12/12/23: I'm genuinely left speechless at the customer service The Mad Potter Team offers, I'm really excited to come back to Mad Potter and have more dates and time here. I'm thrilled they are so kind and welcome back more positive experiences. (Pink flower and cat cup are our second time here) I genuinely think this is such a neat place and it's fun, I went here for my anniversary with my bf and we came back to finish when we had to leave shortly and they were very accommodating to us for the situation. Staff are super kind and nice! My only concern is the inside of my cup has a lot of debris (I didn't paint/leave any in) when I got it back, to the point idk if I'd like to drink out of it bc it's not a smooth/nonporous surface that can be cleaned appropriately? I'm not sure, but it's a little disappointing seeing it after the work I put into it.
