Birthday Party · 25 guests
Here’s the updated version with those changes: I hosted my birthday party here, and it was the perfect choice! It was a murder mystery-themed event with around 30 guests, and the venue offered just the right amount of space. I’m confident it could comfortably accommodate up to 40 people (the max capacity is 45). We opted for a standing cocktail-style setup and chose a selection of hors d'oeuvres, including sliders (fresh and delicious), mushroom toast points, and avocado crostinis—both of which were vegan and a hit with my guests! The staff were incredibly helpful and kind, and the cozy brick interior added to the inviting atmosphere. Cameron, reached out ahead of time and communicated via messages to create custom drinks. I even got to help name and create both a cocktail and a mocktail, which added a fun personal touch to the night! Overall, the value is excellent—there’s no venue rental fee, just a minimum spend, and with the food and drink options, meeting that minimum was easy. I highly recommend this venue for a memorable and seamless event!

Cafe Skye was perfect for me and my fiancés engagement party. They were friendly and made sure everything went smoothly. The owner was super easy to work with and made the experience very pleasant. Can’t wait to host something else here in the future!

This venue was easy to work with. They were responsive and helpful but not pushy. The food and drinks were outstanding. The staff were friendly, low-key, efficient and helpful. I am so glad I chose them for my intimate casual event. I will definitely work with them again. HIghly recommended.
