Party · 50 guests · November 2025 · Urban Cafe Area

I booked the Box Cafe for my Halloween party turned wedding and I had the most amazing experience with Linda (the venue owner). Not only did she give us a very generous discount, she also offered to decorate for us since we had so much going on that day, for a very reasonable price. She spoke to me several times throughout the planning, worked with me, and made sure my perfect wedding came to life. She was incredible every step of the way and I would book this place a thousand more times for an experience like this! She decorated the place BEAUTIFULLY and the place is absolutely lovely. I cannot say enough about my incredible experience with this venue and I will definitely be back for dinner and any time I have an event. She made everything smooth and seamless for a reasonable price! Book it!!! You will NOT regret!
