Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    I went with a friend to brush and bubbles, it sounded so exciting & we wasn’t disappointed, the studio was lovely in the heart of the west end so lots to do & see before and after, the artist Jess was so patient and approachable with very clear guidance, there was a fabulous relaxed ambiance and you come away feeling like an artist, I can’t wait to go again (soon hopefully).

    I recently checked out a painting class on a Saturday, and it was awesome. The teacher was super kind and patient, making everything feel easy and fun. Plus, the space was really cool – bright, welcoming, and just the right vibe for getting creative. It was such a nice way to spend a Saturday, learning to paint and just enjoying the process. The class was definitely worth the price

    Fun experience to do with a friend/s or family. The instructor was really knowledgeable and gives good and clear instructions. Would recommend as a fun activity to do.

    Warning there are lots of colours to choose from :) also bearing in mind it’s likely you’ll mix colours to craft your perfect shade. I’d recommend having a bit of an idea beforehand though. Perhaps even bringing your fav or a discontinued lippy with you to colour match.
    Allow 2-2.5 hrs for the experience you can bring your own drinks.

    Reason for the 4 stars is only that the chairs we had weren’t very comfortable or stable and this could be an issue.

    I was bought a day knife making course by my wife and children as a surprise christmas present. I contacted Boneyard who were mega helpful and booked my experience for February. I travelled in to Twickenham and walked to Boneyard in about 25 mins.

    The team were really welcoming and chatty. Turned out I had lucked in and was one of two student they had booked - so literally a personal lesson.

    We ran through the safety bits and were provided equipment.

    When in the forge we were talked through the equipment and what we would be making. The day was broken down to the different sections of the knife with a demonstration followed by hands on instruction.

    There was a perfect balance of guidance and independence.

    I spend all day in front of a computer screen for my job and this was an amazing day away doing something i had never done before and left not only with a cool knife but with a bucket of knowledge and a great memory.

    I would highly recommend this experience. They are a small independent company who deserve the support and clearly passionate about their company and craft.

    We opted for the bring your own bottle/food paint a pot experience which is 2.5hrs long - plenty of time!

    Lots of options to chose from, and for around £40pp it’s quite reasonable as an alternative to just going for food, and similar experiences to this are pricier.

    Staff were helpful and kind, lots of staff on shift too so we were seen to quickly. One girl (who I can’t remember the name of!) was particularly helpful to me & went out of her way to help me out.
    What I will say though, is that the manager came across rude to his staff - we noticed him demand one of the employees to go back out to get him a drink for his lunch (which the employee had also gone to collect! Not sure that’s entirely part of the job description). The place is rather busy especially on a Saturday when I went, so being nice to others shouldn’t be an ask.

    The paints and arts supplies were get condition and lots of options. Whether you’re a big group or a couple you were also treated just as important as another customer and every one had the same introduction and explanation.

    Overall a great experience, and so nice to do something a bit different in London!

    I completed three DJ courses at LSA over the span of a couple of years, gaining my advanced certificate in October 2020, just before I moved to a new country.

    What started out as curiosity to learn a new skill and develop my love of electronic music, turned into a new career path, and it's all thanks to LSA and my fantastic tutor, Ben. The courses are structured really well in how they break everything down and teach you the skills over time, tailored to the music you are interested in.

    I loved my experience there so much that I returned in 2023 to start learning production, with lessons from Peter and Sam, who were great tutors. I was also given an opportunity to play at a gig in London through LSA when I returned to do the course.

    10/10 would recommend LSA to anyone interested in learning to DJ or produce.

    I haven't wielded a paintbrush since my art teacher at school openly scoffed at my amateur attempt.

    I wish I tried something like this sooner! So much fun, easy instructions to follow, all the paint stuff provided, fab atmosphere with the other painters and hosts. Very cool playlist too!

    We had a canvas to paint on with an easel, felt like a proper French artist :)

    I can only compare myself with myself, but very proud of my first attempt.

    Have already booked on another :))

    Spent such a fun afternoon at WeJam! We managed to play through full songs even though we hadn't played these instruments before. 10/10 loved it, will be going back for more.

    Such a fun night. Works with smaller and bigger groups. Went for a much needed night out with another friend. The host was so, so funny and great at making the whole event less awkward for those who may have been nervous around the models and new people. Models was gorgeous (obviously lol) and extremely respectful and kind too.

    Had a lovely evening at the BYOB terracotta planter making session at M.Y.O!

    Very welcoming space with a relaxed and friendly atmosphere and brilliant teacher who talked us through all the stages of making our own pots. Brought out the creativity in all of us - almost too absorbed in the process to remember to drink the wine we'd brought! Can't wait to go again.

    Myself and my Wife wanted to try something different during a weekend visit to London. We didn`t know what to expect but turned up at the hotel to receive a very warm welcome , given our nametags and waited for the fun to start.

    We were treated to some brilliant acting , deliciously posh sandwiches and mouthwatering cakes and scones. The actors did a great job of getting everyone involved in the story. It was my birthday and I received a full rendition of Happy birthday 1929 style! which was a brilliant touch.

    The arrangement at the tables allowed us to chat and meet lots of new and interesting people in between the action whilst we had or tea.

    It all ended with some great flag waving and a rendition of "Land of hope and Glory" which made us feel very patriotic.

    Great show and a real Hoot!

    We thoroughly recommend the experience

    I really enjoyed the pottery workshop because it was so relaxing and something different to do on a weekend.

    Working with the clay really eased my mind. I actually forgot the time and did not want the session to end.

    I highly recommend the pottery workshop, especially if you want something unique to do with a friend or even a date.

    I love pottery cafés, but this one is the most expensive one I've been to so far. I know, it's the whole brand thing, but still!
    It's a fub activity for adults and children alike, with plenty of items to choose from and super friendly staff that's always there to help.
    The café part has lots of sweet treats on offer and reasonably priced drinks, but it's lacking healthier snack options for children.
