Had the best birthday date at Riverdale Hive Pottery with my husband! 💕 Toby was such a wonderful instructor – patient, fun, and made the whole experience so easy for beginners like us. It was such a creative and unique way to celebrate, and we can’t wait to come back! 🌿✨

I had the most wonderful time during a pottery class with a group of friends. Toby and Monica were so friendly and knowledgeable! We had such a fun experience creating our own pottery pieces and would definitely come here again. The place itself if really cute and had a very welcoming atmosphere. 10/10 experience, would recommend to anyone interested in trying pottery.

I won a voucher for a date night at Toby’s studio through a school auction. We were greeted warmly and told what to expect. Toby’s studio is in a large old house that’s been separated into various artistic sections. Her space is welcoming and artsy. She showed us some work that other clients had created and asked us which piece we’d like to make. We both chose vases ☺️ Next we got a chance to try the pottery wheel which is what I had been looking forward to! Despite my long nails I was able to make a beautiful bowl. We had the option to make another appointment to paint but opted to keep the natural colour of the clay. We will pick up in a few weeks and am exciting see how our creations turned out.

I went with my friends for 2 hour of pottery. It was my first time and I didn't have a lot of idea of what to expect. Toby was extremely nice, she taught us to make hand clay pots and mugs and then we also got to do wheels. The whole experience was so relaxing and Toby is a charmer and such a sweet person. She made us very comfortable and enabled us to be more creative. I would highly recommend to come with group of friends and family.

We had a blast doing the date night class with Toby. She was an awesome host and made us feel very welcome in her cool little studio. We had such a fun time but also learnt a lot about pottery during the 2 hour session. We can’t wait to see how our pieces look and would highly recommend this activity to anyone. Thanks Toby!
