The Firestone | art studio + cafe

One of THE Greatest Places; My Daughter & I Safe Haven!
Great food (somethings were an acquired taste, but overall love), Great Atmosphere, WONDERFUL Staff (Love Them); haven't quite participated in the studio part of the Art side of the Cafe. My daughter and I have Dined & Paint, and a Wonderful Experience ALWAYS; the art is fairly priced and ready in a Timely manner.

I get ours today, was yesterday; lost my brain somewhere in the day... Definitely give them a try!

This place had surprisingly good food for the setting. I remember getting a good sandwich and my wife liked hers as well. Not particularly helpful on the menu since it's been a while but looked like a good activity with some good food worth trying out. I'll be going back for the activities when my kid is a little older.

Food was so so but I admit to being a muffin snob. And I didn’t eat anything else. The tea was ok. The art options were fine but not what I went there for.

My daughter and I came for canvas painting, as we have done 3 times in the past. Upon checking in for our reservation we were informed they no longer do canvas paintings, but offered canvas painting classes, even though our reservation said booked for canvas. I asked if they could make an accommodation and we could paint a canvas as my young daughter was very disappointed. The staff/manager was extremely rude and dismissive and said no accommodations. Place is very chaotic, RUDE staff. Definitely DO NOT RECOMMEND. We took our business elsewhere to Muse-West Hartford which was a way better experience.

We came here today,myself and young daughter and my friend and her young daughter. We were greeted by a very friendly individual and showed to our seat. That was it... All the other staff were extremely cold and rude , aggravated and bothered with answering questions or taking our coffee order. Overall very disappointed in the service and experience.

Fabulous time either way family painting Christmas ceramics!

The food here is so good,a little om the pricey side but still very good. The only down side was when I found this long orange hair in my food from the girl behind the food making area. I didnt say anything whilst there but hopefully this makes an impact. Makes sense though she's the only one who doesn't wear a head covering. Next time I come in I hope to not find a hair in my food. Id love to continue coming in ill just have to avoid their shifts.

Good spot, good sandwiches, nice indoor and outdoor seating options. Great option in this neighborhood.

My girlfriend and I went to the Try It pottery class tonight lead by Abby. They were a wonderful instructor, and shared many tips and tricks to succeed as a first timer. They also created a wonderful environment where guests felt comfortable to ask questions and seek advice. Highly recommend!

Fantastic place to be creative and or eat lunch! Egg soufflé sandwich is a 10! They make their own bread. Painting the ceramics can be costly but the creative atmosphere is worth it. Great place to hang out! Everybody that works there is so kind. You can tell they love their jobs.

Have been here so many times and have always had an awesome experience. Staff is extremely helpful with the art/painting, and the cafe is great! Food and coffees are a must have. Everyone is very kind here, and the place is really organized. The gift shop within is also very unique.

Very good coffee staff was extremely friendly Little confusing when it going inside about sitting down but there is proper signage In the area telling you what to do will definitely be going back with a date to paint a pumpkin. Ice coffee I got was definitely delicious. I spoke to one of the team members when I was I was leaving asking about coming back she explained in detail how everything works I'm excited. Atmosphere was very trendy very upbeat and as stated staff was very pleasant I did not eat as I will be next time the food looked absolutely delicious though I saw them prepping it in the back which is nice and it seemed reasonably priced

I did not have food. We went for an event to paint pottery pieces. It was really fun. Lots of choices. Great and friendly staff. I wish I knew there were more painting tools then what was out. I will know better next time.
