Great choices for any occasion! Friendly service and very helpful. This is your place for any event

I wanted to support a local business, so I bought a birthday balloon here even though it was overpriced. Unfortunately, the balloon started deflating before I even reached home--and I live just around the corner. I called the store and was told to come back, but once I did, they said the balloon had a hole and refused to refund, replace it, or even try to fix it with tape. When I first left the store, the balloon already didn't look fully inflated, but I assumed it was intentional. Clearly, that wasn't the case. Very disappointing experience. I won't be supporting this place again. For me it's not about the money but the way they handled the whole situation. read more

Last minute balloons needed for a birthday celebration and Berkeley Balloons was the place to go! It was Saturday so it was quite busy but the service was quick and friendly. Large selection of balloons and ribbon colors plus candles. The only drawback is that prices weren't clearly visible. Our number balloons were three feet tall so quite an impact! I would definitely return for special celebration balloons. read more

How nice to have a party supply place right here in the neighborhood. These guys will never go out of business because we will always celebrate. The guys that work there very nice and very helpful. It's an awesome popular place. There were several people in line waiting to get their balloons and these guys worked quickly, efficiently and pleasantly with the customers. It looks small, but they have a lot of space in the back for storage. So there's plenty to get if you don't see something ask for it. They also do party rental supplies like chairs and tables I believe. So if your party planning, you must should ask about that. read more

The first time we came in November 2025 they were great (though overpriced for balloons). The second time they couldn't be bothered to help and gave off an air of total apathy. Plus it's amazing that they don't discount items at all after the specific holiday the items are for has long passed. read more

I bought one balloon and it was about 2/3 full with helium. The balloon lasted one day. I miss the party store that was 2 doors down.

Thank you Ronnie and Co for making two fantastic balloon bouquets for my nephew's 5th birthday. His theme was 'Jedi training for the Dark Side'...and these guys had the perfect balloons. One featured an oversized head of Darth Vader, and the other featured a 3-D balloon with an x wing fighter. All the kids at the party gushed! Don't let the small storefront fool you. They have more balloons than what is displayed...just let them know what style or theme you are looking for. I ordered and paid for these during the week, and come Sunday they were ready for pick up! Pricing was Very reasonable, and they even helped me get the balloons into my car on a windy day! We'll done! read more

Ronnie and team provide exceptional, friendly, and timely service. The balloon selection is really great and the customer service is even better. I can't recommend this business enough. We use their service every single time we have a birthday, or any special occasions, and they always treat us great at a good price with great products. read more

Great hours & location! We ordered balloons for my son's bday and picked up the next morning. You can tell they enjoy what they do!

Went in for last minute balloon bouquet. The owner was patient, helpful, kind and crystal clear about (very reasonable) costs and how to transport the balloons myself and unpackage them at my destination. Great experience. read more

Ronny was great and so easy to work with! We were organizing decorations for my son's bar mitzvah. Not only did we need decor, we also needed tablecloths, and Ronny was able to provide those too. I had never organized an event with balloons, and Ronny helped us design amazing decorations. He really knows his stuff and he knows how to make beautiful and fun arrangements. I felt that the price was super reasonable and Ronny did not even charge a fee for coming all the way out to Crockett from his Berkeley store. He was on time (early!) and by the time I got there to the venue everything was set up and amazing. I would totally recommend Berkeley Balloons and events. He did table centerpieces, a balloon arch, cascades of balloons and balloon bouquets. I did not know the terminology for all this before the event, but Ronny helped us design and chose wonderful colors too. Our party was so fun and the balloons were the biggest hit! They were truly what made the event amazing. I would recommend Ronny's business to anyone. read more

The owner was great when I called about last minute balloons for new years. I got 4 numbers (2025) each balloon was way over priced and they charged me extra for air (not helium, just air) which i didn't ask for. Total was $60! For 4 number balloons! I get supporting small businesses but this was wayy over priced!!! Never again! read more

I'm SO happy balloons live on in Berkeley/Albany/El Cerrito. So great to see the owner continue after Paper Plus shut down. I just got some bday balloons for a family member and they are as festive and pretty as ever! read more

Great variety and store owner is very helpful. I made an order in advance and he had it all ready for me. Only negative was the small balloons you blow up yourself. They were very cheap and popped easily or had holes in them. Stick to the helium kind. read more

Marquee letters & numbers-(x2), lighted b-day sign, and balloon display made the event special! Ronny is 100% reliable and very reasonably priced. He's really a pleasure to work with and if you didn't know his setup and delivery fees are reasonable. Highly recommend! read more
