As soon as I walked into the very clean and well lit store, I was greeted and offered assistance. I quickly picked out the balloons I wanted and placed an order to pick up the next day. Email communication was clear and I was notified when the order was ready. I walked in today, was greeted and even though they were very busy, they efficiently helped customers and gave me my order in a matter of minutes. Don't go to any other Party City store. This one is the best.

I absolutely adore this little party store. They have every cute, trendy item for whatever you're…read morehosting! From llamas to mile stone adult parties- their products won't make your party feel straight out of a 90's Party City catalog. It's Instagram and 2021 ready. This stuff is quality! It's goes way beyond the classic party vibe and elevates your celebrations to an event and experience for everyone involved. They also can make custom decorations like balloon arches and custom wall cut outs. If you've got a theme they can work with you to recommend the best product combinations to bring your party to life! Most recently I came here for my boyfriend's 39th birthday and was able to find the perfect combination of items to make the celebration feel like an experience and was perfect for the man who "hates birthday parties" who is dating someone who plans events as part of her job.

'Expensive balloon', I thought at first walking out of the store mid April. Now, just into the…read moresecond week of May, said balloon that was so expensive is still flying high in our dining room, like it was just blown up a second ago. I believe the balloon brand is Orbz - HIGHLY recommend this brand if you're looking for something to last for a special occasion. Customer service was second to none, the owner was very nice and polite and ready to assist. The store is a little on the old side and could do with a make over inside - but there's still some great products on offer. It's not the cheapest, but as there isn't a Party City for miles, you're paying more for convenience than anything else. Costumes inside for rent, if that's your thing... definitely worth checking out if you're pressed for time and need some celebratory balloons ASAP.

I came here with my sister and party planner to shop for my daughter's baby shower decor. They have everything here to decorate any place and to throw a party. I was super impressed at the fun snacks and drinks here. There were a lot of drinks you don't normally find in usual stores. The only thing I didn't like was the fact that we needed to check ourselves out. They don't even have a regular checkout with a person at this location. Other than that, it is a great place to shop for any occasion.

I know I'm running on but I did like the fact that they gave me what I wanted in such a short amount of time! Thanks!

You really have to be in the know to spot it since it's in an industrial shopping center (off of Rosemont Road, near the Fuller School of Massage). I found out about it because I ordered my promotional logo and business gifts there when I was a Marketing Manager. You would never know it, but it's a great place for personal gifts as well. They sell wine, gourmet foods (you can sample while you shop!), baby/wedding gifts, frames, candles, ornaments, beach theme items...all kinds of cutenesses! The best part is, they wrap everything immaculately. You can tell them the occasion and what colors you want to use and they'll make you look like an elegant gift giving genius! I have given many gifts to my friends from there for weddings and showers. At Christmas time, I usually have them wrap up a few hostess gifts for me to bring around to holiday parties. As a business owner, it's a great place to find thank you gifts for clients. They also sell personalized stationary and invitations. I ordered personalized cocktail napkins from there when I threw my brother an engagement party. The owners are extremely creative. This is the place place to go when shopping for that hard-to-buy-for or hard-to-impress person. Just tell them what you want to spend and the owners will gladly give you some ideas. I love to see them in their element, helping me to pick the perfect gift.

They have sections to help you find exactly what you need for instance the set the section might be categorized by storybook type of character game character etc. It also look like they had some sort of a hunted house kids were going into. I've only been in here once I'm going to applaud the customer service. I went up to the register with a question and the cashier left the register and walked around the store to find me multiple examples of what I was looking for and offered me a discount on an item that looked kind of scruffy. No purchase made.
