Saratoga Paint & Sip Studio

I hate to do this — but this place is a one star at best. My wife went with a group of people last January. Her brand new $ 300 North Face jacket was stolen. The bar gave my wife a $ 30 voucher for her troubles. We live 3 hours away and plan on never going back. You really need to get some security cameras. Wish they gave us some money for the Jacket and not a voucher.

Friendly fun place to spend a few hours with friends or alone. Do not need to have a creative bone in your body. Nice selection of moderately priced wine and beer. No snacks to speak of. Two restaurants right next door for those who wish to paint and drink then have a bite to eat. Going again in a few weeks for paint your pet night. Very excited
Thanks for having such a fun place in Latham.

We had lots of fun. Our class was packed (at least 30 people, maybe closer to 40). There were 4 men in the class, 2 bachelorette parties and 3 birthdays on a Saturday night.
Drinks are pretty reasonable… $ 6 glasses of wine, $ 5 draft beers (Ommegang! $ 5!), and $ 2 sodas/​water. On their website they say they have snacks, but there were no snacks for my class. So just FYI, make sure you have a nice filling dinner beforehand.
We painted «Kissing on a Tree». The instruction was good, but I wish the artist up front painted on a bigger canvas so you could really see what she was doing.
I would definitely go again.

I got to check this place out with a deal from Groupon. I went with two friends and we got dinner beforehand next door at Yang’s, which was excellent BTW!
Paint n Sip was so much fun! The girls who ran our class were hilarious. They really kept the energy up with jokes and great music (Rihanna… and other stuff like Rihanna).
I am a terrible artist/​drawer and haven’t painted since elementary school, but I was able to let go of all that and have fun with the help of the teacher. She walked us through each step and gave us lots of time.
They have free snacks and reasonably priced beer and wine. I can’t wait to go back with my mom!
I would like if they had specific ladies nights where they blast Rihanna, and other nights where they tailor it more to guys/​unisex so I can take my husband (not that he’d be convinced very easily anyway). There was one guy in the room when I went, and he seemed pretty out of place.
