The Good: The team members were wonderful, extremely helpful, kind, and genuinely excited to host us. The positive energy made the best of the situation, and I appreciated their warmth. We did get to take home pints of various ice cream flavors and our glass cups, which was a nice touch. The Disappointing: The description promised a welcome drink. When I asked the team, they said it wouldn't be provided because "too many people signed up." Definitely raises questions about class management because if you're charging premium prices (and this wasn't cheap), I would hope they would either cap registrations or scale up supplies accordingly. The actual "class" consisted of mixing ice cream with beer or champagne to make floats. That's it. Nothing we couldn't have easily done at home for a fraction of the cost. For the ticket price, I expected techniques or at least some creative guidance beyond the obvious. While the staff saved this from being a complete disappointment, the lack of organization and the simplicity of the actual activity left me feeling like I overpaid significantly.
