Popcorn: Play, Party and Cook

"Ksenia hosted a fun birthday party for my daughter and was super helpful and responsive during planning! I'd recommend her to anyone looking for a custom birthday party."

"We held my daughter's birthday party at "Popcorn Play Party and Cook," choosing for the gold package with extra 100$ (for extra kids) for a total of $1050. Ksenia, the managing partner, designed a Harry Potter-themed invite and baked a delicious cake. However, the venue lacked elegance and appeared somewhat disorganized, resembling an old daycare with toys and bikes at the entrance. The food provided included two small pizzas, a tiny box of nuggets, and some fries. Most children received only one nugget, others had to trade fries for a nugget. When I addressed the issue with Ksenia, she explained that the nuggets and fries weren't part of the contract but were added as an attempt to supplement the pizzas. I mentioned that even with the pizzas, the food wasn’t enough (both pizzas would feed one hungry adult). Ksenia said that the size of the pizza was mentioned in the contract. I personally didn’t check the size of the pizza when signing the contract, I assumed that pizza was a relatively cheap meal and that there would be enough of it for all kids. Additionally, we didn't get to sing "Happy Birthday" until just 5 minutes before the party's end as it took more time than expected for the kids to bake their cupcakes. This was a disappointing experience for me as a parent, although my daughter still enjoyed her time (hence an extra star)."

"Super place. The teachers are wonderful. My son and I love Pirok. He started going there at 2 and a half years old. Before that, he didn't even speak. If you're looking for a mix of preschool and daycare, then this is the place for you. Children play and learn new things. This year we continued to go there and my son loves it. Thank you so much for your warmth and love for our children."

"We celebrated our son’s 5th birthday at Popcorn: Play n Cook. We had a big group with 14 kids and 15 adults. Everyone had a blast. Tina was very cooperative from the get go and worked with us. The party room is pretty spacious that even with 30 people in the room, it wasn’t crowded. The room was decorated as per our requirements. Tina was very patient with the kids and was able to engage them throughout. I had requested pass the parcel game because my son loves it, so Tina made sure to organize it for him. Really appreciate Popcorn and Tina for making it a memorable experience for us."

"We had a great experience with the Popcorn team in organizing and conducting a Zoom Birthday Party for our daughter, which has turned 10. Both Ksenias and Natalie, who was our leading cook instructor, were very friendly, understanding, full of energy, ideas, enthusiasm, and the ability to adjust to the new pandemic reality )) and to find and try the ways to create a grand celebration! We had a big group of 10-12-year-old girls attending the zoom-party, and everyone enjoyed the party that much that both kids and their parents gave us thank you notes and great comments as to how innovative and excellent everything was organized! Girls played games, cooked their own cakes successfully, had a fun educational part on the theme of our personalized party, enjoyed treats, and other fun activities together. Even though I had to prepare some additional things for the party myself, the Popcorn team made the huge part of planning themselves, including an important informational letter for the parent to be sure that our cooking part of the party will go smoothly, preparing theme knowledge, games and additional style master-class for girls. The goodie bags with the most critical components for the party in them were prepared by Popcorn team as well, that had made my life as a birthday girl's mom, easier )) I did fill them with additional items, but it was my wish, not a must thing to do :) If you want your child's birthday to be creative, personalized, and/or be led by experienced educators and fun-creators, then I would recommend you to try celebrations organized by the Popcorn team. I think, their talents and resources easily could fit your wishes and needs!"
