I'm a big fan of the "Our Woven Community" program. It supports refugee women with opportunities to make and sell beautiful handbags, scarves and other items. I recently bought two tote bags as gifts for friends. The bags were lovely, unique, and each one included a biography of the woman who created it. My friends loved them! Our Woven Community doesn't have an official shop space in the Burroughs building, so I called ahead and when I got there the receptionist showed me bins full of items for sale. They also sell the products online and at craft fairs, farmers markets, etc. Half the proceeds go to the women directly, and the other half pays for supplies, equipment, and entrepreneurial skills training.

My son had his 6th birthday here last week and I was very impressed with the staff and preparation…read more It was June so the only other guests there when we arrived was another birthday party finishing up. The staff had set up my son's soon with a fun construction theme including table clothes, plates, napkins, signs on the wall and had juice and water ready to go. They checked in throughout, reminded us about pizza and cake at the right time and didn't rush anyone. Last year my son had his birthday at Tumble Jungle in Norwalk and it felt more rushed and like they wanted us out on the minute but Playhouse Fairfield gave us a great experience. If you're looking for an easy time for your kids, someone to truly pull it all together for you I'd definitely recommend them in the future!

I'm writing this review to share an extremely troubling experience my family had at Playhouse…read moreFairfield on December 4, 2025. My two-year-old son and I have visited this location dozens of times over the past year without a single issue. On this visit, we also happened to be the only Black family present. What happened afterward was shocking, unprofessional, and felt unmistakably discriminatory. Later that day, I received a call from someone identifying herself as the owner/manager. She claimed that it had been "reported" that my recently turned two-year-old son had: * "Shaken" a one-year-old girl * Then supposedly been "violent" toward multiple children * And later--somehow--"choked" the same child These accusations all came in a single phone call and kept changing as she spoke. Not one version was consistent with the last, and none of them matched anything that occurred during our visit. When I calmly asked her to check security footage, she said she would but immediately followed it with, "The video may not have caught anything," despite openly admitting she hadn't reviewed it. To this day, I have received zero follow-up or confirmation that any video was checked at all. I later spoke with the front-desk employee who was there during our visit. He confirmed that: * No parent voiced any complaint about my son * He personally witnessed nothing concerning * The owner/manager was not even present at the time This brings up extremely concerning questions: * How did the owner know to single out my child when no complaint was made? * Why was I immediately presumed guilty with no evidence? * Why did the supposed reporting parents never speak to me directly, which is standard in children's play spaces? * Why did the claims escalate from shaking, to multiple children, to choking--a sequence that simply does not align with a newly two-year-old's behavior or my son's history? My son has never harmed another child, and our long history at this business reflects that.

She was so easy to work with, took total control and organized and coordinated the whole 2 day event for me before I even left home, so that I didn't have to worry about anything when I got to CT except being with my family. Carol was able to capture exactly what I wanted, with absolutely no stress on my part. The food was fresh and delicious and she was able to put a modern spin on my family's favorite classic foods. Carol did a fantastic job and I would definitely recommend her and her very professional services to anyone!

Carol and her team brought such professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail--our entire group was blown away. The passed hors d'oeuvres during cocktail hour were a perfect opener--especially the Tuscan bean bruschetta on cucumber rounds and the chilled gazpacho shooters, which were both refreshing and beautifully presented. For dinner, the buffet was exceptional. The marinated flank steak and barbecue chicken were huge hits, but the whole salmon filet and grilled summer vegetables stole the show for many. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. Carol & Romy were both a joy to work with--thoughtful, responsive, and clearly passionate about what she does. We would not hesitate to work with her again for future events. Highly recommend!
