We recently attended this craft cocktail class as a Christmas gift for our best friends, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish! Our instructor was not only engaging but also incredibly knowledgeable, making the process of crafting cocktails both fun and approachable. The setting was warm and inviting, creating the perfect atmosphere for learning and enjoying the evening. After  + more

Such a fun time! Our facilitator was hilarious and provided clear instructions. I wish we were taught a bit more about the candle process after it is mixed. Otherwise, a fun class, dope space. I’m grateful for the 5$ gift card too! I got a smudge stick with mine

Loved this class! William was a great teacher and so much fun to talk to. Coffee was amazing and I will definitely be back for another pour-over next time we are in FiDi. Gift card was easy to redeem as well. Overall a great experience and cool opportunity someone to learn more about GREAT coffee!

I enjoyed this mosaic class! Located in a convenient spot in Brooklyn, we were given just the right amount of guidance whilst also having lots of unguided time where we could explore our creativity and have a chat. The little mosaic pieces were fun to work with and I’m pleased with my creation, I gave it as a gift for my mum and she loves it (I’m not a good plant parent myself). Would rec  + more

Elena was an amazing instructor very kind and patient. I purchased this class as an anniversary gift to my girlfriend and I. Everything was provided from the smock to the painting utensils. You learn how to sketch from a reference photo, how to mix paint to make colors lighter or darker, and of course how to paint using oil based paint. Elena was a hands on instructor not shying away from helping you  + more

Alzerina jewelry making class is an absolute gem! As an instructor, she's patient, knowledgeable, and overflows with infectious enthusiasm. From the moment my friends and I stepped into her studio, her warm, welcoming energy put us all at ease. Alzerina has a true gift for breaking down complex techniques in a way that makes jewelry making accessible and fun. Her bubbly personality, funny jokes, and  + more

Went as a gift for my boyfriend’s birthday! It was great. We had a lot of fun and our dumplings were delicious. Our teacher was very informative, nice, and funny. He continually came around to offer individualized help and did a great demo! All around it was romantic and fun :)

Asian Dumplings Cooking Class review by Alexis Molinari - New York City


Justine Raymond




This class was incredible! I bought the class as a surprise gift for my partner and we each made one knife each. Our instructor Arlene was so helpful, funny, inspiring, and had a great taste in music. The effort was somehow both easier and harder than expected (my arms are spaghetti), but the teacher was available to help if you were struggling. To be able to leave with a handmade knife was amazing!  + more

Great value. You get drinks, an awesome teaching session, and the tools to make drinks at home. Host makes sure all people are having a fun time and the bar has a great vibe. Overall an amazing gift or experience!

Nina Cheng




Great class with helpful instructors. I took a friend for a birthday gift and it was fun! Everyone was new to pottery and had the chance to make something they could later take home.


Anonymized ClassBento student




I booked a class for my birthday with a few friends. Everyone loved the class! The teachers made it so fun with candle trivia, helping pour drinks, and just creating an overall incredible vibe. They even gave us all gift cards to use in the shop. I really recommend the class for any event or if you want to just find a fun activity to do with friends.


Paul Oh




A wonderful and educational class! EunYoung is very knowledgeable and patient as a teacher, she was so helpful teaching us all about matcha and how to make a proper cup. She went through the history, origins, types, and instruction on how to prepare matcha. I bought this course as a gift for my wife’s birthday and she enjoyed it a lot. I would recommend anyone who enjoys matcha to try this class. The shop she teaches in is cute too.


Doan Buu




My wife and I took the pet bowl class for an upcoming holiday gift exchange, and we were really happy with our decision! Natalie was very nice, helpful, and imformative and created a fun, relaxing environment. I'd never really worked in clay and by the end of the class I was quickly putting together my second bowl without much help or instruction! Two hours went by in a flash, I'd definitely recommend to anybody who wants to spend an afternoon crafting creatively.


Anna




My all time favorite store to shop and browse around when in Bushwick!!!! The atmosphere is always so cozy and they’re always playing the tunes! My partner and I recently did their candle making class and it was probably one of the best experiences we’ve done this year. The candle making studio is so nice and intimate, it’s perfect for a date night! Cristian and Britt were very helpful and  + more

Great class. Christmas gift to share experience. Loved the atmosphere. Great pesto recipe!! Chef and assistant were awesome.


Edwin Froehlich




I got this for a gift for my girlfriend for valentines day. I printed out ClassBento and let her pick the class of her choosing. She landed on Red Inside Pasta Class and she could not have chose a better class. 100/100. I cannot wait to take another one of their classes! The two chefs were incredible and full of knowledge. Awesome experience, highly recommended.


Abigail Gepner




I got this as a gift for my partner's birthday – neither of us had done a cooking class before, but we cook a decent amount at home so I wasn't sure what to expect. It was a full class, but Stefano and Dona did an excellent job of being attentive to everyone making sure we all got to participate in different parts of the process. Even as someone who is an experienced home cook, I came away learning a lot and the food was delicious! It was neat getting to try our hands at making the three different types of pasta from scratch. As a bonus, they  + more


Phallan Grossman




I got this class as a gift for my best friend as her 25th birthday present. We both absolutely loved this experience. One thing I loved was we learned the overall process of making perfume. If we didn't know what we liked, he guided us through it. I highly recommend, to go with friends, family or a significant other!


Matthew Talmage




Context: workshop gifted to me by my partner because she knows I like to swing by cologne counters and check out offerings. Andbest gift EVER! Workshop: Michelle lead our workshop with much info, ease and aplomb! She started out with a few slides with information on perfume structure and scent categorization then quickly pivoted to passing around and smelling scent samples from their collection. We smelled a dizzying number of scents (I had to re-up on the mimosa 1/2 way through) as Michelle explained how each was derived/extracted; its characteristics  + more
