I have worked in retail/customer service for seven years now, and this was the worst customer service I have ever experienced. If I could write them a -5 I would. The lady working at the counter took 45 minutes to blow up 10 balloons for me. She told me next time I need to order ahead even though I brought my own balloons in. The next day the balloons completely deflated because she put barely any helium in them. I tried to get a refund but they said my balloons were low quality, and I know for a fact they were not low quality because I blew one up with my mouth and it blew up twice as large as what she did. Very very disrespectful employees. I highly recommend going anywhere else. Also, their prices are outrageous.
The balloons we purchased were pretty and durable. Enjoyed supporting a local business instead of a big chain store.
Great prices and very helpful staff
Apparently nobody picks up a phone at this store. Ive called five times and have yet to get anyone to answer the phone during the middle of the business day. This is a great way to lose customers.
Very friendly and helpful staff even when very busy! Good selection.
The south Salem location is closed Permanently. Had to go to Lancaster. I let Michelle, the lady worker know that it would be nice to change there website to reflect the closer of that location. She used a sweet voice, but very condescending, and told me that it was out of their control.. and a lot of things are just out of peoples controls these days. No apologies, no Im sorry for any inconvenience, just very condescending. I think I will just order off Amazon next time. Whatever happened to customer service??
If you need anything to do with a party or a celebration or things like that, this is the place .
Had everything thing we needed for a Thomas the train birthday party
Great staff. Poor quality balloons. Kind of expected my $20 balloon to last more than 12 hours. My dollar store balloons are doing great!
Denny was super helpful, the staff was wonderful. Clean store with a wide variety of many party themes that were well stocked.
This party Mart is closing sadly, however the Lancaster party mart is the closest thing to this one and the staff are extremely nice and helpful! Currently they are not going to be open any longer at this location
I just saw that I was open and drove from Market st all the way to commercial to this location and it was closed
This Party Mart is closing. The Party Mart on Lancaster is still open with all the fun goodies 😄
Good selection of party supplies and good prices
The employees at Party Mart are fantastic. I am always able to find what I need. Their ballon section is amazing and the employees do a great job on all their balloon bouquets!
Store is either under renovations or its permanently closed.
As the name suggests only party ware
Wonderful place friendly staff with plenty of selection for any party that you may have to plan. We went here for my sons first birthday party and had a fantastic time picking out decorations not to mention the staff was extremely helpful in helping us find whatever we needed. Dont forget to pick up a party confetti cannon good for any occasion I believe they were only seven bucks
I found everything I needed for my party 🥳
This business is no longer at this location as of 5.6.21
I arrived to the store around 9:45 on a Friday morning. My intention was to purchase 5 helium balloons and a few party supplies. It took me about 5 minutes to select my merchandise and they do have a fair selection. I got in line behind the only two other customers in the store. There were two clerks behind the counter. The first clerk was busy with the first customer in line (who, in fairness, was a high-maintenance customer with many needs) while the 2nd clerk (presumed owner) was busy answering the phone and declaring how busy they were, which baffled me because there were only three customers. After standing inline until 10:10, the 2nd clerk finally began helping the next person in line. He was very gracious, in fact offering to come back later to pick up his order. Then, instead of asking me if she could help me, she spent several minutes organizing the work space behind her and getting the other clerk to work on the phone orders. By now there was one other customer in line behind me (a man). She then asked, who is next? even though we were in an obvious line. She asked if we were all getting balloons, I said yes, he said no. She then said she would ring him up first then. I did speak up and say Id been waiting almost 30 minutes. He graciously offered that he wasnt in a hurry and that she could help me. I thanked him and offered (so that the clerk could hear also) that I had an appointment at 10:30. By now it was 10:15. She did begrudgingly accept my merchandise at the counter and take my balloon order, but then stopped and rang up the person behind me saying, Im not going to make him wait while I blow up your balloons. I did point out that Id been waiting almost 40 minutes at that point. I suggested that perhaps the 2nd clerk could help me since she was working on phone orders for people who were not actually in the store. The owner/clerk said no, she could not. Ultimately, I had to call and cancel my appointment. I did not conclude my transaction until 10:35. It took 50 minutes to purchase 5 balloons and some paper plates. I said to the owner/clerk that it seemed like the best way to get service there was to phone in and she agreed. I mentioned that another way to get better service might be go go elsewhere and she also agreed with that statement. That is my suggestion to anyone in need of party supplies and/or balloons. Go elsewhere.
Their phone number isn’t the correct phone number.
Good variety of party supplies, employees are friendly and helpful. Nice selection of balloons, as well as a large variety of themed celebrations. Nice, one stop party supply store!
It had everything we needed, including back drops, accessories for pictures, and goodie bags.
Had just what I needed when Target and Walmart didnt.
Lots of items to choose from. A few sale items. Lots of confetti and themed decorations. Helpful staff.
Neat, clean, well organized party store. Really enjoyed the shopping experience.
Helpful! And really great variety of supplies. Really cute baloons!
Was awesome. Got everything I needed.
Ordered balloons over the phone for a birthday party. When I arrived (about 30min later) they were ready and exactly what I wanted. A bit sad the location is no longer open in Keizer. But nonetheless, I had a great experience!
Unless you have an hour+ before they close, you Will be treated like an inconvenience!! It has happened to us more than once.. Also they are pretty expensive, but being the only Party store in town, I guess it is to be expected. They do have a cute selection of balloons!
Lots of fun stuff to choose from. Not cheep but not over the top for prices. But you can definitely find a good variety of party decor supplies there
A lot of good stuff just lock your doors not the best area unfortunately.
Didnt have a magic theme area but had tons of stuff that can be used for my rare request. Worker was so sweet, my daughter needed to use restroom and she got me the key while others were waiting for her service. Also connected my child into the experience and made it fun. I did not feel rushed at all, then again I didnt come in 10 mins before they closed like a moron would, and had a great time with my daughter.
The staff was very helpful, when I asked to direct me to sections for Luau, Pirate, Galaxies/stars, Mardi Gras, balloons, streamers, glow in the dark, construction, and SO much more! I planned Overnight camps and supplies were definitely needed for games and fun activities. Not too pricey that I wasnt willing to buy it. Streamers were actually a really good deal. Cheap and fun for kids.
This place literally has anything and everything you could possibly need for any occasion
David was awesome! Balloons were way more expensive than I anticipated but his service was great.
Quick in and out, friendly staff, good place for party supplies.
Incredible selection of party goods. I have never seen the amount of ladies filling balloon orders at one time. I was on the lookout for wedding invitations. The Lancaster location is the only one that supplies those options.
Very well laid out, found all my grad party supplies quickly.
Helpful staff and a good place to find those needed special touches for a great party!
Cant get a phone call answered after several days. Have an event coming up and need balloons, but cant place an order because no one has picked up the phone after 20+ attempts. Now I am going to have to rwnt a helium tank and buy balloons on Amazon. Pain in the rear, but Ill save $$$ and time.
They have a good amount of selections
To be honest, I had fun looking through the store! It was filled with intristing items, and suprises around every corner, which was fun to explore :)
Great place, with quick service and a good variety of options. This is my go-to place for balloons in Salem.
Pickup for balloons was easy, but our order wasnt correct and we didnt realize until we were setting up for our party and didnt have time to go back.
I love this place. It is family friendly and has mostly all u need for parties!
Great balloons 😀
Very attentive staff. Always willing to go the extra mile when I visit. Great local business to support!
Love this store got ever party need . So much to choose from.
Party mart is very amazing, all kinds of decoration for a party, a Luau, plain colors, kids the me parties, sports, age, baby shower, and more! Employees are very helpful and nice!
They had plenty of specialty things but the prices were so steep we ended up getting the things we needed from other stores where they were more affordable
They had a wide variety of items and I was able to get some of my decorations in the colors I needed.
Party mart is a must have in my life. I am a very frequent shopper for props in my photo sessions and also for personal occasions. They always have what I need and their customer service is sterling!!
5 stars for their great 50% off deal on greeting cards!!!
Over priced!!! Ridiculously over priced and selection is not good
I always find what I need and the staff are great. Everyone should go to Party Mart.
The seasonal items are in stock. I enjoy the variety of merchandise.
Needed fiesta stuff and they had a lot of things i needed!
Great place with a lot of selection. Unfortunately a little expensive
A fairly priced place for most of your party needs. Might need a wider selection
I love this place!!! I just wish that everything was a couple dollars less
Place to get healthy milk and fruit I guess but I will stay away from the pastry tasted like 5 days old dead fish 🐠 lol
They had everything I needed at a reasonable price.
Very helpfull, quick in and out with what I needed.
If I could say zero stars, I would. The boss was a total jerk and talked to me like I was stupid. I ordered 18 balloons for almost $30. My boyfriend went to pick them up and the ribbon for the balloons were so badly tangled and knotted. I still cant untangle them. Before guests even started to arive To my party, balloons were popping randomly. Beyond annoying. Way overpriced and very rude know it all staff. Ill never return!
Over priced, rush you out mentality, and hidden return policies. Its sad when corporate chains treat customers better than local shops.
Great for Holiday and partys
Big selection always helpful friendly service!!
We have shopped for many birthdays here. Love their convenient hours on your busy birthday prep days.
Prices were to high....some items I can find at the Dollar Tree which are sold there with a much higher price...nobody ask if we needed assistance
I had to buy all the party supplies again at Wal-Mart cuz they were 5 times cheaper than this place.
Got a cool pinata here
Cluttered and hard to navigate through. This store is old and dilapidated. The shelving is in poor shape and staff could care less about customers.
Slowest place to help you ever. Even when waiting at the counter with two staff members. 😱 yikes on customer service
All your party needy can be found here.
The staff is friendly and they have helped me get things that they didnt have in the store from another location! Plus, they have some interesting stuff!
Michele wasnt wearing a mask.
Lots of party stuff too choose from..
Friendly, organized, clean, and SO many supplies
Not much of a party store.
A typical example of a party store. Somewhat slow customer service, but not the worst Ive seen.
Expensive and the staff talks to much to each other.
Great locally owned business
Great party place
It was ok the prices are way to expensive
I should have bought the stuff all online it was a lot cheaper.
Very friendly staff and get selection of party supplies
Great inventory
Best Party place
Young woman working was very kind back in mid December.
They have everything you need
Awsome store
High prices and an OK selection.
Lots of fun stuff
Very helpful
