THE GO TO PLACE FOR EVERY PARTY!!Family-owned store, with amazing vibes and service. Bumped into one of the owners who said to my kids to go on and keep touching, experimenting and have fun with the Halloween costumes and stuff!!A full session for Halloween: all kinds of costumes, hard to find items. Plus party supplies, candies, toys, balloons... Everything!!
Excellent, family-run party/costume/toy store! We dropped in for Halloween costumes and the store was super well stocked, with helpful staff and great selection. I would definitely come back for any future party/costume needs.
I have been a customer of this Diddams for over 10 years! Need some balloons for Halloween, they where out of orange, black. I purchased a yellow balloon for $4.99. Decided to go to Party City in San Jose. Very surprised that for the same balloon, Party City charged Only $1.50 each!Diddams is way over priced.Best to drive the extra 4 miles!Customer No More!
Diddams did a fantastic job on a balloon arch for our 2021 graduation celebration at Fusion Academy, Palo Alto. Delivery was right on time, balloons were exactly as requested, and Felipe was wonderful to work with. Our admin team is pictured here under the arch. When returning the metal supports/stands to Diddams, I was treated with great care and kindness by the whole staff. This was beyond worth the price, and I couldnt imagine a better experience. Graduates and their families loved taking pictures in front of the arch. Go with Diddams for balloons!
Okay I love going to Diddams. Its so overwhelming that I want to have a party right there! They have everything so I can have trouble finding things but the staff always are helpful and they always have just what I came in to find.
They have so many items to choose from for parties. We were looking for a princess crown for a little girl and the sales woman was very helpful.
For your party needs, any occasions or anything under the sun, this place is paradise. A lot to choose from, great stuffs, pricey though. They also have costumes for any events, everything is in here in one store! Well organised, neat and all nice things around for your festivities all year round.Friendly staffs, they can answer any of your queries for what you’re looking for. Parking is not a problem, it’s in an open plaza mall. I’ll definitely recommend this special party store.
Well stocked, but it seems no one is carrying fake chest hair.
Clean and good prices. Friendly knowledgeable staff.
Wonderful place. Very helpful staff.
Love shopping at the Diddams stores! Huge selection of party and seasonal supplies! Staff is helpful and creative to help you find just what you need or find something that you may not have thought of. Great selection of toys and puzzles, too! Ive been shopping here for years and was a little worried to head in for Halloween this year (as they are usually so busy), but they were very serious about taking care of their staff and customers at this time. Sign up for their rewards program to get info on great deals!
Great store, they have everything at this store, courteous people, check it out when you have a couple of hours to burn
Diddams always comes through for me. I was looking for light up Christmas necklaces to give as gifts prior to a zoom party. They had the longer nicer ones for 5.99 but also had shorter ones for 2.99. Price was great since I wanted 30 necklaces.
They have amazing choices for party goods! Lots of unique toys and gifts too!
I love shopping at Diddams! Their staff is always so helpful and their selection of toys and party supplies is unbeatable. I can always find unique gifts there. Great kids books also and it’s absolutely the best place to get balloon displays! My 90 year olds father was so thrilled with his birthday balloon tower (which he kept in his home for weeks!) that he insisted on getting one for his buddy’s 100th birthday party.
Love it! They have so funny fun things and party stuff!! Huge and great variety
Great local store for party supplies. Also a good selection of interesting toys, puzzles and stuffed animals for kids of all ages.
They always have all my party needs
Save the other trips, and go to Diddams first to find your party supplies.
Great selection of balloons
Loved it very helpful. Has lots of inventory to browse and get ideas. Great balloon selection
I was able to find everything I needed. The persons working there are nice and let you know how to take care of Mylar balloons for example, I was planning to leave them in the car while I run some errands and even before telling the clerk my plan she suggested not to leave them in the car at all otherwise they will loose air.
Awesome employees!!
The staff is snippy and rude on the phone. Once in the store they lose my receipt from my pre-paid order and are rude about getting me another one. While I was in the store the staff was doing a good job making the customers feel uncomfortable and not wanted in the store.
Large party store with a wide variety of supplies. They have an excellent costume selection year round. They have a wide variety of decor, games and gifts for themed parties. They even have a section full of kids games, puzzles and toys. I would highly recommend this place for all of your party, wedding and costume needs.
Diddams Party and Toy is so reliable and friendly! I used them for my wedding decor and it was lovely!!
The balloons they inflated went flat in an hour. And their prices are astronomical! Never again. I guess they jacked up prices because other party places closed down due to virus
Youll find SO MANY fun options! Everyone is friendly and knowledgable on the products. Overall a great place to find all your party needs.
Really ready for Halloween! Impressive selection of costumes. I was greeted by helpful staff immediately. Made it a quick and productive shopping visit
Very typical and large Diddams! Staff is friendly and helpful.I go there for balloons at least a few times a year.
I live nearby, sometimes walk my dog in front of the store, sometimes drop in. Its a huge place with lots of various stuff to browse through, and I kinda love the atmosphere. You really should see them on Halloween.
Helpful staff. Found exactly what I wanted with a little creativity. Lots of costumes and merchandise to choose from.
So far so good. I didnt have a chance to walk around the whole store and check everything out but from what I saw it sure looked like they have an amazing selection of items. I specifically came here to purchase stickers. Diddams did not disappoint. Their price point for the same brand of package stickersSticko that Michaels and Joann Fabrics carries are way cheaper. They also carry old-school Mrs. Grossmans stickers on the roll. That brought me such joy seeing that. I grew up in the 80s and those were all the rage back then. They are a higher price point and a bit expensive but worth the nostalgia. Great toy selection- better than the San Mateo Location. Friendly service.
Great toys and costumes! Everything is displayed nicely. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. 😃👍🏻🎉
My kids go here to get thank you gifts for their birthday parties. We also buy too many gift bags then recycle them and regret it because we have to come back for more. But Ive never heard a word of scorn from Diddams employees about that so theyre a real classy bunch.
This is the best party store I know of. They have everything from party goods, paper plates, cups, balloons and decorations to costumes for kids and adults for any occasion. The employees are helpful if you ask them. You can wander for hours in this place because it is a big store. Parking is free
They have a ton of balloon options, many of them really fun. The balloons were ready when we picked them up. Alhough they inflated a 2 instead of a 5, they fixed it quickly.The post holiday sales are also always good, but you need to go there the morning after to get anything decent.
My go to place for party goods and for the more unusual toys for kids. Many good educational toys.
Love the store. Brings back so many memories when I went there as a kid.Terrible customer service though. Rude cashier and I couldn’t find anyone to help me. All the girls were in the back of the store chatting away to glory.
Lots of variety. Brand name and less expensive childrens toys. Probably should keep help instead of rollover. Some assistants were not familiar with inventory. Otherwise A+.
Called ahead. Yeah, we got what you want. Not even close. I wonder, were we speaking the same language. Felt like bait and switch. My first and last time to go here.
There used to be a wide selection of themed birthday decorations. Theres a huge reduction on inventory. I do however, love that they provide banner & t-shirt printing services. I ordered a last minute banner and was very pleased with the quality of their products and services.
Best and easiest place to get presents for kids birthday parties. Best selection of Halloween costumes in the area.
Best party supplies store around hands down. During Halloween they stock up with a great variety of costumes too.
They have the perfect staff to help you find that one item that makes your friends ask Where in the world did you find that?
End of the day but cashiers were happy to help ..This place cheers me up every time I visit and I love the kids section, books, games,Lego .Please add some diy gifts to the selection too .
We found everything we went for. It was well stocked and the staff were very helpful. My brother ordered helium baloons to go. One popped in the car park because the car was hot.
Regarding balloon order: Take a picture of what your order is, esp if it is from a floor display. Then compare it to what you are picking up. I realize after I got home that my big balloon bouquet ($30) was missing the huge ribbons. I was too busy preparing for the party to double check the floor photo Id taken, and only managed to call two days later. They said that the order was correct - it didnt include the ribbon, that I should have told the lady who took my order, and also that when I pick up and I dont say anything right away, then it is as-is. Of course when I paid for my order and said I wanted a copy of this particular one on the floor, Id expected it to be a replica. Basically I was told there is no recourse, and I called too late. They were much nicer when I was inquiring about balloons, and when I was placing the order. Not so friendly on pick up and definitely not friendly when I complained.
I had to buy 3 balloons to celebrate a 100th birthday. Single balloons available to 90. So Sad
Went here for Halloween costumes. Pretty overpriced, but thats to be expected a week before Halloween. I didnt expect my stuff to be almost 3x Amazon for the exact same costume. Also, it seems like they have a lot of knock-off or just-barely-passed-qa stuff here - I wouldnt be surprised if they got all the rejects.That said, the staff is friendly and helpful and they have a good selection.
Lovely collection but poor service at the balloon section. Extremely rude and curt. Seems like they are doing you a favor. Been a regular here but will take my business elsewhere next time.
Big selection and the manager was very helpful in helping us find exactly what we needed
The store carries a great selection of party supplies and toys for kids. Love it.
This is 2018 and this store has a horrible return policy. I purchased some items that were not satisfactory and they refused a refund or to issue store credit for me and this was after I spoke to 3 Diddams representatives on May 10, 2018 at 5pm. Stores like Target, will at least issue store credit for returns that are unopened and resellable. I encourage Diddams to rethink their return policy or they may not be in business for very much longer. Take care of your customers and they will come back. Keep this up and your location will make a very nice spot for luxury apartments on El Camino!
OMG! This place is overwhelming, in a good way. There are so many things to choose from: Plates and cutlery in every imaginable color, party accessories and.decorations for every occasion and a balloon station where they can do anything you want.
Have been here to get birthday party stuff. Prices were neither high nor cheap. Worth visiting once.
My go to stop for costume and party supplies in the South Bay. The parking lot is small and around holidays (especially Halloween) it can be hard to get into and out of. Prices are decent and the stores selection of party supplies is more than sufficient for most entertaining needs.
Theyll have roughly what you need. And a bunch of stuff you dont need. They also have a surpsingly extensive selection of toys.
This is a good party store with a big selection. They also carry costumes, but I havent really shopped in that section. My only complaint is that it always smells like industrial cleaner in the store. It starts to burn my eyes after too long.
Very good variety of party items. For Halloween they also have a great number of options as well. Very good place!!
Love the variety of candy and toys a bit pricey
You can go here for costume needs year round Its a very dated store though, and feels a bit messy at times. But youll be in and out so it wont bother most.They have balloons and all the party supplies you can imagine.Everything is a bit pricey though so be prepared for the ticket shock for those costumes they have. The staff is very helpful though and can locate anything and everything for you!
I ended up here last minute looking for costume ideas, and there was a very helpful lady that got me hooked up with a custom costume idea that rocked. I highly recommend this place, they have an awesome selection as well!
A good place for party supplies. A but costlier than Dollar Stores.
My son bought me some balloons for my 64th birthday and the minute he took them out of the house the big (expensive one) flew away . I called the store and the clerk said we could come back but it was Sunday after the party and we dont live in the town so the clerk said, Well that sometimes happens. Just lost some great customers!
Very large selection of party supplies and costumes. Lots of toys and games too. I would go a lot more if I lived closer.
One place for all party needs. Get instant helium baloons of various kinds. Had even once placed order over phone for a baby shower baloon. Staff seem neither happy nor angry, would probably even more light up the place with a smile on face. Easy parking as its part of a strip mall.
Best selection. Anything you could ever want for your party or special occasion.
Lots of fun items. Great costume collection. Interesting candy from yesteryear.
Good selection of costumes, party supplies, balloons, candy. I got an 8-shaped piñata and it broke way too easily. Kids were sad they didnt get a turn.
Diddams is one stop for all party goods, costumes and toys. Its great to just wander around.
Having a party? This place can help. Costumes, decorations, balloons, games, candles, candy, giveaways and even Donald Trump pinatas:-)
A wide variety of party goods.i have always by pound what I CV have needed there. Great choice of costumes mlm
This store is awesome: they have everything you need to throw a party but a surprisingly limited selection of non-birthday / baby / wedding gift bags.
Pricey but worth it. Neat toys for kids and adults
Great store for party needs. We went for piñatas and they have a very large selections scattered around the store. They also have helium, balloons, bulk candy, costumes, decorations and more. Great one stop shop. The only complaint I have is that there piñatas were to commercial. They were almost always related to some childrens show.
Aweful. Not stocked and dirty. Overpriced items.
Lots of paper and plastic party supplies, baking supplies for lots of different occasions. Fun place to browse!
Huge place to buy all your party preparation stuff, from helium balloons to decoration malterials, this is definitely my one stop go to place.
Very good selection of everything you can think of to party and to disguise. Reasonable prices.
The help was awesome trying to help me find what I was looking for it fortunately they didnt have it!
Wow. Huge shop. You can find anything what you need for a great party.
The place turns into a Halloween shop with all costumes and masks. It was OK, but we still liked the shop on the other side of El Camino much more and ultimately purchased the constume for our son there.
Over all a fun place to visit, one of the few diddums that had a make up bar with it.
There were boxes everywhere kind of messy
Love their balloon choices !
Love it my favourite suite to go to!!.😆 Lots of fun toys and crafty things! Go there if you like fun!😀
Surprisingly good toy selection - lots of books and cool science toys.
This is an awesome party store. Every holiday is celebrated 365/24/7.
Great options for any kind of celebration! Even just crafts! A little pricy, but good variety
It’s a nice store! A little overwhelming as they carry a nice variety or costumes, wigs, toys and party supplies. It’s a little overpriced comparing prices to Walmart or target it’s double! Unfortunately, they are outdated was looking for fun plates for boys birthday and unfortunately, couldn’t find anything like PJ Mask or Incredibles.
Great balloon selection and staff as well as other party supplies.
Nice place w/good prices. Purchase items for party favors & your favorite type of candies not found anywhere else
