Color Cafe

Had a great night celebrating and painting for my niece's birthday! Great atmosphere for the group or individual setting! So many great items to choose from to paint can't wait to plan my next night!

I took my fiancé here and we had an amazing time! I reserved as a table, but didn’t have to pay anything upfront. We came in were greeted by multiple people, who all offered instructions and support. They checked in a few times while we were there for about 2.5 hrs. We got a few drinks and they just add them to your tab later so that’s cool. They had so many kind of pieces to choose from, lots of variety in size and style. My fiancé and I both picked pieces that were about 60$. And I just got the email they our pieces are ready for pick up, only about 2 days later! 10/10 experience! We had a blast, it was warm and welcoming, busy but not too busy. *my fiancé asked me to add that they had Star Wars stuff and that made his whole experience choosing what to paint much more challenging lol

I really enjoyed painting my cute little monster. I celebrated my birthday here with my boyfriend and I had a really great experience. Amazing personal like Emilio who helped us and gave us amazing advices. I would totally recommend it :

From the handy educational video on how to get started which for a newbie like myself was very helpful to the delicious muffin and coffee I had at the cafe, you cannot go wrong visiting Color Cafe! We had a great time, and our art pieces came out beautifully!

Always love coming here, open inviting like family. And its wonderful to see other people's artistic idea's, while sharing your own. Friendly owners, staff and a calm, open environment.

WHAT A HIDDEN GEM! This is the cutest place to go to with friends or for a relaxing date. Staff is super chill and their drink options are quite nice too. I had such a great time and can't wait to be back!!

We made a reservation for 6 4 adults and 2 late teens in advance, specifically because we were connecting with family and hoped to drink some coffee while painting items and catching up on a rainy day. Upon arrival, we noted the shop was clean and well organized and our table was set up nicely awaiting us. However, there was limited smaller item selection for beginners to tackle, and medium to large pieces were priced between $70-$90 and higher, which was unexpected. I'm not sure if that is typical, but a bit steep for a first timer taking on a new craft. It would be nice if there were a better selection of smaller, inexpensive starter pieces for newbies. Just a heads up, and maybe a timing thing. We were also quite disappointed to learn that there was no coffee/tea/Cafe items available to us afterall, as staff notified us the "coffee machine was down", despite being told at the time of the reservation being made that it would be available. To us, it's part of what set this shop apart from the others in our decision of where to go, so that was sad to hear. Staff was helpful in explaining how it all worked and getting us started with our task. Any time we needed assistance they were attentive and polite. However, at the end when we wanted to pay, they told us the credit/debit machine was "down", and we had to pay cash or etransfer. It would have been better to hear this at the start of our experience, but it's possible the state of the machine changed shortly before we were done ‍ It was just a rather inconvenient bit of news to discover after the disappointment of selection and lack of cafe. A member of our party had to leave the area to locate an ATM. Overall, it was a mildly disappointing experience, with a series of let downs that were likely out of the control of staff, so we may try again at a later date now that we know what to expect. Overall, cost just under $300 for the six of us.

Color cafe is a must for anyone visiting Calgary! We had the best afternoon here painting our frog and now we get to have this cute souvenir living in our house! Everyone was incredibly friendly and the space felt perfect for being creative. Being able to park there was also a big plus and it didn't take long to get our piece all finished before the end of our holiday. Definitely recommend

Super friendly family owned business! We’ve enjoyed going here for years and they never disappoint. I’m always excited to see what they have in stock, and pick up is extremely easy. We went on a super hot day and the owner game us freezies, it was a wonderful touch! They help you out as much or as little as you need; I really enjoy just being able to go in, pick my piece and start working right away. Calm environment, great for parties, dates, or an afternoon out!

The staff here are exceptional. My car was hit in the parking lot while picking up pottery. They gave me water and let me wait inside until it all got sorted out. I am so grateful. They have a wonderful selection of pottery or clay handbuilding. Highly recommend this location.
