“We went to a smaller screen, 11. Seats were comfortable. Learned that posted start times plus about 20 minutes gets you to actual time. Every theater seems different. This was our first visit to this one.”

“Zumi has the most unique and fashionable items you'll find. I have a friend who would visit and HAD to purchase goodies each trip as her travel treat. Her products range from kids to adults allowing me to buy for myself, my young girls and friends. The jewlry, clothing, books and goodies are eye candy all day. Love this place!”

“My son & daughter in laws wedding was here in Sept 2024!. I have to say the staff here, were some of the most attentive & helpful that I have ever encountered! The food was delicious, They went out of the way to help with desserts that came from STL. In fact they even went out of the way to carry Miller lite that night for some of the Uncles from MN, who will only drink Miller lite ( even though, that is not on their normal menu).
They were more than accommodating with allowing us to decorate early, The loft area for the wedding party to gather between the ceremony & reception was perfect for what the bride & groom wanted. In addition The staff went ABOVE & BEYOND the day of the wedding... The hired DJ was a no show ( although they had set up the equipment hours earlier.... ) The manager on duty had made several phone calls, trying to solve the problem of the no show DJ, even before involving the families... and continued to work to find solutions to the problem, Although the DJ finally showed up 3+ hours late..( I am sure it was only due to the persistence of the manager on duty at the Curate!)
If you want a venue that cares about the couple & families & will go to great lengths to make sure the day is SPECIAL. -- Then Curate is the place for you!”

“I’m a DJ who recently worked a wedding at Irishman Acres Clover Barn, and it was an absolute pleasure. The staff was amazing to work with—super friendly, easy to communicate with, and always making sure we had everything we needed throughout the day.

We only used the indoor space, but it was beautifully decorated and very well laid out. The team did a fantastic job with the room flip, and everything transitioned smoothly and efficiently without any issues. I also really liked our setup location right in the middle of the dance floor—the stairs in the background and the décor all looked great!

Overall, a great venue to work at, and I’d absolutely recommend it to couples and fellow vendors alike!”

“This is a nice place where older people can gather and dance and listen to music from local bands the prices are fair. Everyone seems pretty nice but you kind of feel at a place if you don’t belong or don’t go there or enough that everybody knows you the help most are very helpful. I’ve only had experience with one bad one, and I don’t think she’d have a problem with me if it were under different circumstances, but I rate this a Fun Pl., Klien also”

“A lot of things are just alright about this hotel. However, it’s great if you have an event or want to explore the east village. Walking distance to many bars and restaurants. Parking is a bit confusing because the garage is around the corner. so try not to be in a hurry when you arrive.”

“The Teachout Building was the perfect venue for our wedding. Kaitlin was such a joy to work with. She communicated with us well, allowed us to come and take a look around any time we wanted, and helped us make big decisions for our day. The Teachout Building is stunning and decorated in itself. It was so nice to be able to get in Friday to decorate for Saturday and bring in vendors of our choosing. We absolutely love this venue and it is so special to us. We could not recommend this venue more.”
