This is a fun little shop that does all the sort of stuff you'd expect for parties - balloons, cakes, cards, gift bags, etc., but it does a whole lot more these days. Think of anything that involves a party, and they'll have the stuff you're looking for.
Come Hallowe'en, they're backroom gets transformed to a costume shop, with wall-to-wall costumes from the traditional French maid and nurses' uniforms to more recent entrants, depending on what the latest film craze is.
What's really impressive here is that there is a specific service that they cater for that you would never have thought they did. You pass the shop and think "oh, party shop with standard party stuff". In truth, they are masters at co-ordinating the set-up of weddings. The work they do in supplying seat covers, centrepieces, backdrops, wall coverings, favours... you wouldn't believe it. Go in and ask Joe to show you photos of the work he's done - he has hundreds of photos of weddings he has set-up and he loves to show them. He has a real eye for detail, and when you think of what DJ's and bands get paid, I genuinely believe this guy needs to up his prices for the work he does.
