I had a disastrous experience with this place and feel that I was scammed. They require cash only…read morepayment when ordering which should have tipped me off, but I was just happy to get such a good deal (also should have tipped me off--everything has a price). I ordered a balloon arrangement for a health fair I was running at a major hospital in NYC. The arrangement was to say "DIABETES" "FAIR" with the balloons for each word connected. I said this several times when telling the sales person what I wanted. I also made it clear, and it was written on my receipt, that the balloons needed to be delivery by 11am at the latest on Nov 12th. Well, Nov 12th comes along and it's 11:40am. I'm running around trying to get stuff together and didn't get a chance to call them until then. I ask where my delivery is. The woman says, "I don't see anything here. Are you sure it's today?" I say, "Yes, and the date and time that the order is to be delivered is on my receipt." Someone else then comes on the phone and asks incredulously, "That's today?!" Again I answer, "Yes!" Then she say, "just give us 20 minutes." Which I knew was impossible, because it would take 20 min just to get to me and it didn't sound like she had the order. I asked if the order was prepared and if it wasn't to just cancel it and give me a refund. But then they said, "Oh we can't do that, the order is already started." I told them that the event ends at 3pm so there's really no point since it will be halfway over by then. The woman refused saying she'd be to me in 20 minutes which was a complete lie since they obviously hadn't started the order prior to my call. Of course 20 minutes later, they're still not there. 12:50pm the delivery woman finally arrives (who I will say was very nice). She gets there and says the "T and the E flew away!!!" And then asks if I still need them? Like, hello, what am I supposed to do with DIABES FAIR?! They didn't connect the letters like they were supposed to either. Each was just an individual jumbo letter on a string with no weight attached (obviously since 2 letters blew away). She goes back to the store to get the other letters and I realize the "I" from FAIR is also missing, so I have DIABES FAR. I start tying what I have of the letters to the chairs since the letters are connected for me to make an arch with each word. Finally she returns with the E, T, and I around 1:20pm and I am able to setup but it looked terrible since the letters were freestanding. I could have bought jumbo letters from the 99 cent and up store for $2.50 and then a dollar and change at the hospital gift shop for helium and saved a lot of money since they didn't even bother to do an arrangement. Instead I ended up paying them $10 a letter. Other places are around $20 a letter which seemed expensive to me, but maybe it's worth it if you actually get what you're asking for. Lastly, usually I just use Yelp for restaurants, but I learned my lesson that I should use it for other businesses as well. If I had seen the 2 stars for this place, I would have never ordered from them.

I just got off the phone with a woman from this shop. Since the minute she picked up the phone, she…read morewas rude. I explained that I passed by the shop before their closing time (6.30pm) and they were closed and she said that she leaves between 6 and 6.10pm everyday since she has "things to do". I asked what day she stays until a little later and she said Friday. I told her I was the woman who called looking for sashes and she went on and on explaining that I need to tell her with time and that is not something she can do is 2 seconds. She said this without allowing me to explain when I needed the sashes. I politely told her to wait a second and slow down because it seems that she is not listening to me and she VERY RUDELY said "no, it's just that I have things to do". I told her ok and that I will just go somewhere else and she said "Ok goodbye, God bless you". I would never give this woman business and you shouldn't either

This is very conveniently located in the Bronx . The parking surrounding this store is tricky and…read morenot easily accessible as it's located on the ever busy third Ave. Therefore, if you double-park please know what you want and skidaddle. Their awning changed but their located directly on the corner of the given address. Once you go in they are literally packed to the rim with cake decorating things. It's almost overwhelming and unclear, but there's a cashier who will help and grab what you need. I came in for food gel and the attendant was nice and recommended that I get colors other than what I requested because it would help me to achieve the desired color and darker if necessary in the future. I appreciated that. I would like this store more if I were able to walk around and look for myself freely. However, it works. I definitely recommend knowing what you want coming in, regardless of how you parked. As always thank you for the service and may God bless this establishment!

I thought that was a very bold move and should be illegal. I went to the Halloween city because I'm not a big fan of party city because of their plastic use, but that's a another story. Party city is usually very busy during Halloween time so I knew I could save time and waste less if I went to Halloween City. The staff assured me that there have not been any fights or drama with the Party City staff. They had a great selection, the prices were reasonable and the staff was very helpful. I was in and out. I did however just notice that their website brings you to the party city website, so now I think they're related companies.

One of those days include celebrating birthdays for the beloved family of course lol Party city is usually where we go to grab some balloons. The quality and design is usually good and the staff gives you a heads up regarding how long the balloons usually last which is helpful. This location in particular is closest to me, its arranged fairly well and is kept clean every time i come by to grab a few items. Every party needs you could think of is pretty much here from utensils, to decor, candies and costumes! So four stars for you - for now! Lol

She took a rough idea and turned it into something way beyond what I expected -- the setup looked amazing and completely elevated the entire event.

You can tell she really cares about her work and takes pride in delivering something special. She was also punctual, professional, and made the whole process stress-free, which honestly is half the battle when planning anything. Highly recommend Marion if you want your event to stand out. She nailed it.

When I asked basic questions about party supplies, I was offered no assistance or guidance whatsoever. On top of that, the pricing felt excessive for the level of service provided. Customer service should feel welcoming and respectful, and unfortunately, that was not the case here. Because of this experience, I will not be returning or recommending this store. If you're looking for good-quality products, fair pricing, and genuinely kind, polite, and professional service, I highly recommend Balloon Saloon instead. From the moment you walk in, you're treated with respect and care. It's absolutely worth spending your money at a place where customers are welcomed and valued.
