We had my granddaughters 2nd birthday party at The Warehouse. It turned out to be a spectacular event! The Warehouse provided us with everything we needed to make it a special day. They arranged for a bounce house in the yard area in the back for the kids to play. All of the cutlery and china was provided for lunch and the menu was simple and easy for both parents and kids. All the kids had a great time playing together outside together in the bounce house and there was plenty of room for them to run about outdoors and have fun. I highly recommend The Warehouse for any type of party or family gathering you may be having. Plenty of room inside and out and the ambiance is great too. It's a cool place with a flair that you don't see very often these days.
