| - My team chose Color Me Mine as a group team-building event and we were all really pumped up about it. The woman attending to the rest of the establishment was an absolute delight and so enthusiastic that we were there. The man hosting our party was the exact opposite of what you would want for an activity like this.
His name was JJ and when we arrived he barely managed a grin. I told him there were approximately 12 more behind us and he replied with, "I know." He told us which pieces we could choose from and gave us roughly 3.7 seconds to 'Choose 4 colors, quickly' while he watched over us, really putting the pressure on.
We had a cute little painting space upstairs - they allowed us to bring in food and alcohol, it was really nice. ...until JJ came back. He gave us instructions, and I'm not sure if he just wasn't having a good day, or what - but he wasn't happy. They had a super sad playlist on and we asked if we could change the music, but he just glared at us. He sat in the corner the entire time painting his own pieces.
We left and they told us it would take 10 days for our pieces to be ready - which was fine, we were all super excited to see how they came out. When it was time to pick ours up, they couldn't find mine anywhere - it was missing for almost 3 weeks. When I called, they just kept saying, "You can come back and paint a new one for free" but that wasn't the point.
I don't see myself going back to Color Me Mine, due to the attitude of the employee we dealt with. It's really quite a shame, because the Manager was delightful.
