Awesome pinatas, small mom and pops shop. Support local!!! Custom pinatas on request. Prices range from 15 for a simple shape to 100 for the huge or really cool extravagant ones. You can be cheap and just use an amazon box for a pinata... or be a little fancy and let the kids beat your favorite character to pieces for some candy.

I can vouch for his piñatas being very well made. Everyone from little kids to the adults took a turn. Our pinata did not go down without a fight!

Awesome! Saw the business on the news and came in today! Bought a corona-virus shape piñata and a burro piñata. Got a large piñata and small piñata and candy to fill out for $125! Such a great deal. The owner is friendly and there are plenty of options to choose from.

Guy never called me for my piñata so my kid went without one. Dude ignored me in the store when I first came in to help the pretty women then when it was my turn talked about his car and car club more than he needed to

It’s a great place to get a piñata which actually looks like the character! The owner is the sweetest and they can make custom piñatas. I got a piñata and tons of candy for a really good price so definitely if you can leave a tip because their prices are a steal. Definitely going back!

DO NOT USE THIS VENDOR: Cannot work within time constraints, lies about when he can have work done. NOT FRIENDLY, and very combative.Also when I personally (not for work) bought a piñata from him for my 3 year old it was made with chicken wire & a printer box that nobody even the adults could break apart.

This place is amazing! They have a great selection of ready-to-go piñatas and they can also make any custom piñata you can think of (keep in mind that you should give them a weeks notice to make sure it has enough time to fully dry). They require a 50% deposit up front for custom orders.They also have everything you need to go with your piñata! This is a great local store.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I had the pleasure of meeting Fransisco today (owner). As Soon as I walked in I was very impressed on the selection and the appearance of the piñatas. I hadn’t seen a piñata like these since I was a kid. They are made very well and actually look like the character. Please try to tip him if you can for his detailed and perfect work that I haven’t seen from any other store.I bought a Marshmallow man and Cinderella piñata. I can’t believe I have been here 8 years (from southern California) and have never heard of this place. Fransisco himself is such a kind and hard working man. I definitely recommend this store for piñatas and candies.Muchas gracias señor Fransisco.

Great place with super friendly customer service. Owner is top notch and will go out of his way to provide you exactly what you are looking for. You dont stay in business for 30+ yrs without caring about who walks thru the door. This is the place for pinatas and a simile.

Talented humble custom pinata maker who does a fantastic job. Come in a month before you need your pinata and hell do what he can to make you whatever you want and will be a more than fair price - I say tip him because he doesnt charge enough. He also has started to make pinatas and stock them so that you are able to just come in and buy one of his creations without waiting for it, as long as you dont need anything custom-made anyway.

This store is great! His Pinata’s are very cool, unique and well made. He has even made a COVID Pinata, which we would all like to beat! We purchased a large Frida Pinata plus candy and baton, all for our grandchildren, for no reason, other than fun! During this Covid crises this small local business is struggling, so if you need or want a piñata, shop here, not the big box stores. He just prays to keep his doors open! Shop Local!

Wonderful pinatas custom made by hand very reasonable. Small are 30, and large are 40. It takes about 10 days and you can not only pick the character and the size, you get to pick the colors too. These things are sturdy too. Kept the kids very busy at our birthday party.

He never told me he would wait 2 weeks for me to pick up. I told him I was busy and my baby shower was months away so I told him I didn’t need it until May. He should have called me and told me he was going to sell it if I didn’t come by to pick it up in two weeks.He didn’t try to sell me another piñata either he just said, “oh well, bye.”

Review №32

I would not recommend this place, I called was being very nice to the guy and he seemed to be in a bad mood if you work on customer service and your going to be mad about questions that are being asked if I can pick it up and he goes no because no one picks up when they say. Stop judges all customer by other mistakes.

Review №38

Cowardly Owner Who Does Not DeliverI have ordered multiple pinatas from this gentleman over the years (minimum of 6). This year in May I requested a Romeo pinata (villain from PJ Masks). We communicated by text message (we have done this numerous times before about other orders). He agreed to do it and we agreed on the date of pick up.When I arrived, only his mother was there. She is a very nice lady. She and I looked thru the shop for the pinata and could not locate it.He finally arrived and stated he didnt make it because I failed to pay a deposit. I reminded him and showed him our text conversation where he didnt mention a deposit.I also reminded him that I was a repeat client and that the only pinata he had ever requested a deposit on was the first pinata he ever made me for me.He went and hid out in the back part of his shop and refused to come out and make things correct. He left his elderly mother out front to deal with his mess. He did absolutely nothing to resolve the situation.His mother retried to rectify the situation and gave me a Geco Pinata.I sincerely appreciate all of his mothers efforts and were she the owner and operator of this place I would continue to do business with them, but she isnt, so I wont.This man is a coward and not a man of his word. Completely disappointed in this place. I will drive to El Paso if need be before I ever use this guy again

Well-made piñatas that can take a major beating. The piñata selection is fabulous. They also have an assortment of Mexican candy for purchase. They take custom orders but you need to call in advance.

The only pinatas in Albuquerque that can take a hit. It took us a few parties worth of experimenting, and asking around, to find THE place for pinatas.
