The place was very clean and staff of the store was very friendly and everything was neatly organized in their sections according to the occasion.. They also had super friendly music playing throughout the store...

We were sent a large balloon assortment by a family member. There was no name/message, finally tracked down the sender who read us the nice sentiment. When called PCity, they couldn’t have cared less saying “Oh the driver probably lost it”, like it happens all the time. I find that unacceptable, when one has a gift delivered one should be able to count on the message being delivered along with it. And again, they couldn’t have cared less..plenty of other delivery services out there that would bother to care.

Went in here the other day and only met one kind employee who’s name was Jaylin. She helped me plan my daughters party and she did an excellent job! Thank you Jaylin for your excellent service! ❤️

Worst experience ever. They decided to redo store. Shelves empty. And staff very unhelpful. As a matter of fact asked 3 different employees where something was. 2 ignored me and the 3rd said was not there department. Not too happy

There was practically nothing there. It wasnt that the shelves were empty, it was that the store had party sets for kids, milestones, and Halloween. That was it.

The store is rearranged and looks neat, but it seems like they have much less in stock. Not sure if it is pandemic-related shortages or general changes.

Wide range of graduation supplies months before we actually need it which is nice. I was able to get in and out with a few ideas and a few things wasnt expecting to buy.

What a great place! Its large, well lit, and so well maintained. The staff is excellent.

Review №15

Its pretty expensive and not the place Id recommend if you are going to dress up in a costume. Its very large and they basically have everything you need to dress up as whatever you want but be willing to spend a lot of money. They usually close at 9pm

We love Party City. Now only do they have ton of party supplies, costumes, wigs, and balloons but they have a ton of goodies- toys, candy, back to school supplies,seasonal and holiday supplies. The staff is always super friendly & helpful. They are opened right now during the pandemic & mask are required- they have changed up many different things/rules throughout the store to prevent the spreading of covid- you cant try on any costumes or mask, they have the 6 feet spacer in the check out line, they offer hand sanitizer as you walk in. I also seem the cashier clean the door handlers, the credit card machine, and wipe down & use sanitizer on the counter between costumes.

Great selection. This is a great resource not only for parties but for random things like suspenders, petticoats, lanyards, and buy-by-the-piece candy.

This store had way more than I was expecting. Prices were clearly labeled, inventory was full and neatly organized. I enjoyed my shopping experience.

Review №30

Great selection of party supplies. Good organization it was easy to find what we needed. The price for blowing up standard balloons was a bit pricy so we opted for a helium tank and did them ourselves for less. But overall great trip, and all our party needs were filled!

Review №31

Ive shopped for my Halloween costumes here for the last... 5 years. It isnt horrible, although at times, the costumes can be a bit poorly fitting and made. They have a giant selection. Customer service is usually very helpful and attentive. Prices are from fair to mildly over priced. If you are shopping for party supplies... Hmm... Just check around for prices because a helium tank thats 25 at Walmart will run you 35 here. Happy shopping and Halloween 🎃 yall!

Easy to find what I needed. Nicely organized. Very helpful employees, and in and out quickly.

Went in to return two unopened bags of balloons. I didnt have the receipt, but I did have the card I had used on the purchase. I was offered merchandise credit and told that they could look up my purchase with my card, but the system didnt work that well and they really didnt have time to help me since they were having a managers meeting. They suggested coming back at a later date, which I will, with my receipt. I assume they were discussing customer service and inventive ways to lose business. I will not be returning, there are plenty of other options online and around town.

I went in looking for themed beverage napkins, something summery - beach or lobsterbake or sailing... nada. Lots of plain colors and kids themes, a handful of florals. The small paper plates were $3.50 for a package of 16. I brought about $30 worth of napkins to the register and the cashier asked me for $90. When I corrected her she said, oh, sorry, I read it backwards...

Service rep very helpful. Great items, cash/card register caused line to move slow.

There is a large selection covering many, many different events and holidays. I needed props for a photobooth that I was setting up at an office party and found a wide selection of hats, headbands, moustaches, etc.Checkout was friendly and the clerk seemed genuinely interested in chatting - we got more than just the standard pleasantries.

Review №50

I like the store for what they carry, but in this trip I found 0 items I went in looking for. Their stocks were so low that nothing useful was left. I asked the clerk for help finding something, and all she did was suggest an aisle to look in. I asked again if she could show me where because i was having trouble. She was adamant about not going over there. I was trying to hurry because it was close to their closing time, but there was no actual help given.

Review №53

Manger on duty with the red hair was awful she wasn’t very nice had a bit of an attitude toward her cashiers and then just walked away when she was asked to help with my balloons when the cashier was clearly a bit over whelmed with the line forming and everyone wanting balloons, after I paid I had asked if that was a manger the young lady looked at me and said yes the assistant. That poor cashier.

Review №55

Wish I could give them negative stars. I was asked for my email address at the time of sale and I said no thanks. They informed me they had to have it for the sale. Now I keep getting junk email from them. I have sent in repeated requests to be removed from the email list. But no they just keep sending me crap.

Ideally there would be a line for those preordered/prepaid. I asked after a few minutes if I had to wait in line and then the associate called in another. The person in front of me said she also phone ordered/prepaid.
