There was a main worker, I believe she was a manager that was terrible and made our whole experience unenjoyable. I didn't catch her name but she has brown hair and two different colored eyes. My child was by me the entire time and did not do anything that was poor mannered. Her attitude was pompous and demeaning towards customers. For being in a customer facing role, she had an attitude and shouldn't have been in her position. We decided to take our business to Spirt because I will not support any business that treats people like that.

Great prices. I do recommend getting complete outfits online, as the ones here are really expensive. I mostly came here for the experience and accessories. It is really hard to find an employee on the floor, though, most of them are usually at the cash register. Also, it was really hard to try to call about information, because there's no direct line to speak to somebody live. You kind of just have to go there.

This year, there's one on Clayton Road, taking over what would otherwise be an empty building. As soon as I walked into the store, I was greeted by an impressive display of decorations -- especially the centerpiece right in the middle of the store: a haunted train car surrounded by tall, spooky figures. The store itself was a bit messy, with some costumes messily scattered on the floor, and I wished the staff could tidy up a bit more. Still, I understand they're probably busy with all the last-minute Halloween shoppers. Overall, it was a fun and festive experience visiting the store.

The band has a huge following and it made us look really bad and also the Lafayette Art and Wine festival.

This is the most unprofessional sound company. They have no business doing sound for a big festival. Maybe a backyard party would be ok

As soon as we walked in, we were pleasantly surprised to see that all the Christmas merchandise was already out -- and even better, most of it was marked 50% off. It instantly put us in the holiday spirit. The selection was impressive. There were so many different types of Christmas decorations to choose from, and the store was organized beautifully. Each aisle had its own color theme, which made browsing incredibly easy and enjoyable. Whether you wanted traditional red and green, something more modern, or fun themed items, everything was laid out in a way that helped you find exactly what you were looking for.

This review is for Rose, the cashier that helped me right now. She deserves all the 5 stars!…read more I had this beautiful wall decor (which is 50% off right now) but the prices were different for the same exact items. One was marked $29.99 and the other was $34.99 granted the colors was slightly off, but it had the SAME item number and looked identical. (Just like a TikTok video I seen how this girl showed different prices were hidden behind the front ones which was more expensive). Anyways, I asked her if I could get the darker color for the same price as the lighter one which was $29.99 and Rose looked at the item number and called a manager, Tamara came over and she didnt even bother to check on the tablet for the current price of the item. She just said no. Then I pulled up the item on hobby lobby website and there it is, $29.99 half off is $14 so I went back to Rose and showed her. She called Tamara over again and explained to her. Then Tamara came over and told me she would do it for me this time because online prices are cheaper since it costs shipping and handling? I guess? But regardless it's 50% off right now and the online price matched the store price. It just seemed like Tamara didnt want to deal with me from the beginning. I appreciate Rose for helping me out because this item was the reason why I came in. I've been waiting for it to be on sale.

She parked farther and walked in on purpose so the kids wouldn't think she drove here which was a nice detail. She did story time and sang , magic tricks, a bunch of fun kid group games/activities with music on portable music device which she had technical difficulty which is understandable and perfectly fine so we helped with spotify on our cell phones. Please be on standby host parents to help carry character's belongings. For host parent, consider charging up your own Bluetooth music speaker to have ready as backup. We had food and games and she was so helpful too with gathering kids and singing happy birthday. She provided a tiara and special bracelet for the birthday girl which was perfect. All the kids and parents were so amazed and enchanted with the whole experience that parents sat and enjoyed and also filmed the experience. We had face painting and she had time for guests to take some pictures too. we loved how we could have a Disney princess come to our home. There's a small travel fee of course since we are outside of the normal area. Would highly recommend while your kids are young and still into characters. Ariel stayed in character and price point was good too. Thank you Cinderella company for helping our daughter's dreams come true.
