  • 5/5 from Lindi Jarvis, attended Oct 2026: We hosted my daughter's 10th birthday at Cones. She had the best time painting pottery with her friends.

  • 4/5 from Teresa Hayes, attended Oct 2026: Teacher was lovely and class was relaxing and enjoyable. However, not enough choice and pieces not fired so very fragile- mine broke unfortunately

  • 5/5 from Jaimee McGowan, attended Apr 2026: So much fun! Lots of lovely ceramic pieces to choose from.
  • 5/5 from Elise Clapham, attended Apr 2026: This was my daughter’s idea as an activity for me to do with her during the holidays. We are no where near the studio so we decided to jump on the train, the studio is just meters from the station. It was such a fun and relaxing way to spend our morning. Charlie was great and the studio was a hive of creative activity. I can’t wait to pick up our pieces and do it again soon!!
  • 5/5 from Angela Johnstone, attended Apr 2026: I did the pottery painting class by myself and I had a beautiful day. The teacher explains everything at the start and gives you some tips which was helpful. I loved it and I'll definitely go back.
  • 5/5 from Sharon Bourne, attended Mar 2026: We had an amazing time painting our ceramics at Cones Studio. Nestled amongst cafes and not far from Bentleigh station, the location is a winner. More importantly, the studio offers a calming and serene space to create. We had everything we needed as the range of paints colours was extensive and the quality of both the ceramics, paints and tools we used was top notch! Our teacher was encouraging and patient. She was lovely!
  • 5/5 from Teresa Hayes, attended Mar 2026: A lovely session! My friend and I chose a ceramic item to paint (mine was a pot, hers was a jug) and had a enjoyable, relaxing time designing and painting our item. The teacher was helpful but let us do our own thing without hovering. Thoroughly recommend!
  • 5/5 from Chelsea Hadrian, attended Feb 2026: I did the ceramic painting workshop and must say that it was really a great experience even when you're thinkingabout doing the workshop on your own (just like I did). You could really be creative and do everything that may come to your mind. It is also a nice thing to do even if you're that gifted in painting or have no idea in mind so you don't need to worry about that at all
  • 5/5 from Rebecka Schenker, attended Feb 2026: Went to Cones for a hens party activity and everyone loved it! Charlie was super helpful with the planning and was very accommodating with some special requests I had for the reservations. Perfect amount of time to be able to make something you love but didn’t drag on. They mostly left us to ourselves to paint as our heart desires but were available and willing to help whenever we had questions or so on. Would definitely recommend to anyone who is wanting to book an event or just go as a fun outing!
  • 5/5 from Mimi C., attended Jan 2026: Instructor was awesome and very friendly. It’s really great activity for family you can do art and the same time interact with everyone. We loved it!
  • 5/5 from Neelam Vasudevan, attended Jan 2026: A ceramic painting experience for the first time! Charlie at the Cone studio was really good in explaining the process and patient with the questions. I chose to paint a small vase. Out came the colours and inspiration! It was fun and the group was very friendly. The base work is done and now the wait as it gets glazed and fired...thank you ClassBento.

  • 5/5 from Phi Tran, attended Dec 2024: We went in a group of 14-15 and it was so lovely! They were super accommodating and the activity is so fun. It's a good activity for yapping and cat hing up with friends. Also no awkward silences because you can just concentrate on painting your pottery pieces. Only thing that I would mention is that I wish there was a bigger range of pieces available to paint but other than that 10/10
  • 5/5 from Joellee Nicholas, attended Nov 2024: Our staff Christmas party started off sooo well with our class at Cones!

Cant wait to pick up our pieces once its finished.
