I've been to Creative Culture twice now, and loved it both times! The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and answer questions clearly so there's no confusion about what to do or where to go. They also keep the space clean and organized, which is no easy feat given the nature of the business! The selection of crafts, while a bit pricey, is excellent. I've found that if it's in budget (you can find info on pricing on their website), you can find something fun for just about anyone. And regarding the price points, to me it does make sense given the cost of materials and labor involved. Whenever I go, I always leave room in my budget to add the suggested tip for the employees since they do such a great job and deserve to be paid well for it. Their specialty shakes are also AMAZING! Seriously, the price point they're at makes sense considering all of the extra goodies that are piled on top of the shake itself, and they're delicious! Just be sure to grab a napkin or two if you order one since it can get a bit messy. My one complaint, if I can even call it that, is that when it's especially busy it can be a bit cramped trying to walk around between the tables. That said, it's not bad enough for me to dock them a star since they use and manage their space well, and when I've been there people were generally conscientious of their surroundings which in turn reduced potential problems. All in all, Creative Culture is a bit pricey but very fun and well run! I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a unique place to go for a celebration, special occasion, or even just because. I can't wait to go again someday! read more

Came here with my girlfriend for a date, and it was a ton of fun! The employees were so nice and helpful to explain how everything worked, and were very attentive. When you first come in, you can look around and decide which craft you want to do, and then check out at the desk to pay and order your shakes. Then you seat yourself and can get started on your craft. we were there for like 3 hours, and no one tried to rush us. There was a 2-3 week wait for our clay painting pieces to get finished to pick up, but that's reasonable. Highly recommend this as a cute date or activity spot! It does get a little busy, and you may be sitting right next to people you don't know. But it didn't feel too cramped or crowded still, and it's perfect for chatting if you're up for it! And to add since this is something I often look up as well. LGBT friendly, we felt safe and comfortable. read more

My husband and I walked in excited to make crafts to celebrate our anniversary. When we arrived, there were no other customers inside. Two employees looked up from their busy work (sorting beads), and then back down. We roamed around and looked at the options for a minute and waited to be helped. A few other parties came in behind us and were helped. We went back toward the employees who had sat back down, eyes firmly fixed on their beads. Not a word to us. So we left. I was so disappointed as we had been looking forward to our visit for weeks. For the price of everything ($90 for a ceramic dog, $45 for a small flower pot with no plant), it should be an EXPERIENCE -- not an expensive way to paint a flower pot, which we did for free at Ace hardware last weekend -- plant included! Sadly, we won't be back. read more

Like other reviewers, I experienced shady business practices here and write this as a warning to other customers. This business pocketed my gift card money and failed to provide solutions, despite me giving them them ample opportunity to do so and getting assurances that it would be addressed. And the worst thing of all is that it was my daughter's gift card that she'd received as a birthday present, so she was really disappointed in how it ended up. I would not do business with this place, and wish the owner treated customers with more professionalism and respect. read more

*MILKSHAKE REVIEW ONLY* The peanut butter / chocolate milkshake was fabulous! Loved all the hidden little treats within! (It's fun to try something new, but we'll probably cut our cost in half and head for ice cream next time!) We took our voluptuous milkshake to go and simply walked around the yard area by Bamboo Penny's. Lovely evening! Crafts: We didn't do any ourselves, but it looks like a fun (but $$) crafting time! From macrame, candle making, patch work, ceramic painting, and more. A great date night option for sure! read more

I adore this place. My introverted side very much enjoys the calm vibes and opportunity to create/craft in this inviting space. Great place for a date night, whether you and your person want to work on a craft together or separate pieces. Also great to go by yourself as the times we've gone haven't been busy and overwhelming. Typically good music playing at a reasonable volume. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. I appreciate their knowledge of the options available and helping instruct you on getting started if needed. As someone who is not very artsy and intimidated by a completely blank canvas, I love the craft options here that give you a bit of a start but still a lot of room to make it your own. They have some large and in charge milkshakes that I've heard are quite good as well. read more

My son loves Oreo shakes. Every Friday after school, I take him to get his weekly shake. I saw Creative Culture on a friend's post and decided he would get two that week. We were going to see if the shakes were worth the price tag. When we got there, my son was worried I was about to have him paint some pottery. He isn't the creative type or rather he doesn't like to paint and color things. We got to the counter and looked over the menu. My son ordered The Original (Oreo of course) and I had the Treat Yo' Self. I should have tried the holiday one as it looked tasty as well. These shakes were delicious!!! It was like the fancy Bloody Mary's that are full of stuff except it was a shake. The toppings change with the seasons. The jars are plastic though they look like glass and you take them with you. I will definitely come back and might paint something too. read more

Such an unassuming gem hidden in Park Place! Came here on a Thursday night with some friends to paint pottery and enjoy milkshakes. There was no one there when we arrived, but as the night went on a handful of couples stopped in as well. The lady was very sweet and explained all of the available crafts they offered. She showed us examples of previous pottery work, gave us advice, and checked up on us throughout the night. The selection was decent, and we all were able to choose a piece we liked. I went with a plain cup and painted bows all over - bows are all the rage, and I am here for it! Anyway, the paint selection was vast with different shades of each color, and they had a nice guide with already glazed and fired colors. We were provided with reusable paint holders that had six slots each (but you can use more than just six colors), paint brushes of various sizes & textures, and aprons. Each table has six seats and comes with water, cups, and napkins to wash the brushes if needed. They also had stencils available, but we didn't end up using any. The entire process took us about two hours from start to finish and about two weeks to glaze and fire. We also ordered two milkshakes - The Original Oreo & Monthly Special. The Original Oreo consisted of vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, oreo crumbs, one large oreo cookie, cheesecake bites, a rice crispy treat, and pocky sticks. Need I say more?? The Monthly Special was just as good and was my personal favorite. Didn't catch the official name of this milkshake, but this consisted of strawberry ice cream, whipped cream, chocolate, strawberry cheesecake bites, pocky sticks, a rice crispy treat, a chocolate dessert, and cute heart sprinkles that lined the rim. Such a fun, seasonal drink! Overall, we had a fantastic time, and all agreed we want to come back! read more

First time in - the kids were interested in a "fancy milkshake". We didn't partake in the crafts, which seemed cute. We ordered one milkshake to share and it took nearly 30 minutes to get to us. At one point, a staff member even asked if we had received our order. It was tasty. The place was cute. I'm not sure we will rush to go back unless we don't have a timeframe we need to stick to. read more

This review is strictly for the milkshakes. At first it felt very odd to go to a craft/D.I.Y. place for milkshakes but boy am I glad I D.I.D. The guy working there acted like it was perfectly normal to not partake in the craft side of the business which put us at ease. I ordered The Original (Oreo). Now it wasn't exactly like the picture online but close enough for me and I enjoyed it all the same. I believe it's worth the $14 and you get to take home the cup. We intentionally didn't eat before we came and I'm so glad- it will fill you up. Slightly random place for a fun drink but I recommend it- great milkshake and you can check out everything else they offer while you're sipping without the pressure. read more

So many different crafts to pick from. Had the most fun and the milkshakes are amazing!

BEWARE! They may sell you gift cards and then abruptly shut down shortly later. They did so in Portland, getting away with a $200 gift card sale and leaving me with no way to use it. read more

Horrible. Made a candle and ceramic piece and was told we could pick them both up on the same date. When we arrived to pick up the two pieces we were then told that they only keep candles for 1-2 weeks. When we responded that we were told we could pick them up with the ceramic piece they responded saying they may have given our candle away on accident. They offered no refund or gift card. We were told we could stay that night (we did not have time and had already been waiting 20min) to make another candle or else we could not get refunded in any way. Will NOT be back. read more

Aesthetically- this is IT. Overall, I walked in and was a bit confused with the layout. When you walk in, its a bit scattered and the menu isn't in the general vicinity as everything else. I had to ask a worker if I could order a milkshake and she was confused with my question...... but it's a really cool shop, where you can paint clay and get a milkshake. I came here specifically for the milkshake. The flavors were good. There's just a lot going on..., so i recommend sharing with someone? Unless you're willing to spend $15 on it. (Personally, I'll pass on the price...) read more

We had an AMAZING time at Creative Culture. The fall craft options were SO cute and the Pumpkin Spice milkshake was the best. HUGE thank you to Scoby. She was so helpful and kind to us. Even during a very busy Saturday afternoon, she checked in on our group regularly to make sure things were going well. I would definitely recommend going to Creative Culture! read more

Love this place. The staff is wonderful, shakes are beyond crazy. We'll definitely be going back. read more
