Ruth’s Partyland

Thieves check your bank statement I was charged 4 times for only 2 items I’ve given them evidence of this and they still refuse to refund the money they are giving me the run around he said she said they said… absolutely no stars but you have to at least put 1

Really good service. Nice little family business filled with hard workers. Will do anything possible to make your experience wonderful. Enjoyed every visit and every party we threw was amazing thanks to their help. Its so cool and interesting in the store. All types of party supplies and amazing materials. Hope for the best!

These pinatas dont play! i got one for an adult party and we had a hard time getting it busted open. Great craftsmanship, fair pricing. i got a piñata, rope and a stick for around $ 20. They have plenty of options and some silly pinatas. parking is limited but the choices and prices are alright.

I have NEVER seen so many pinatas in my life – AMAZING! We came to find a good Angry Birds piñata for my older son’s birthday, and we found the perfect one here. My older son was fascinated with the rows and rows of pinatas, while my younger one was scared out of his wits at all the huge pinatas (including scary Halloween ones). He wanted to go home ASAP, haha!
We knew it was on the I-​35 access road going south, but I didn’t know that coming from Koenig/​2222 if I got on I-​35 going south, I would blow right by Ruth’s Partyland. So don’t get on I-​35 from Koenig! Try to find the access road … confusing if you follow the signs to I-​35. Also, the driveway is to the north of the store. We turned into the driveway to the south of the store, and it was a law office parking lot.

I read the reviews and decided to give this interesting place a try. It’s quite a dive but as far as pinatas go, these guys have you covered. Literally any character and size you can imagine.

Was not a fan. Had his small child (7 or 8) try to hard sell piñatas to my 3 and 5 year old kids. Then his kid dragged my kids around the store being crazy so they wouldn’t want to leave. I found that comparable piñatas at fiesta were more affordable. Although, they had a good selection, hence the three stars.

I worked in Austin for two years and passed Ruth’s brightly colored store every time I was forced to return to previously-​mentioned job rather than being allowed to fulfill my destiny as Queen of All Things, which comes with an array of perks, not the least of which is a flying carpet and a Swarovski-​bedecked cotton candy machine and not having to do dreadful things like change diapers for a living BUT I DIGRESS.
A friend of mine was throwing a Cinco de Mayo party (to be held on the tenth ‘cuz that’s how b*tches roll ’round here) and I decided on a whim to investigate what I was sure was a closet of a store in search of a piñata that would blow her away.
Much to my delight and surprise, the store is a LOT bigger than it looks from the road! Hidden within is row upon row of GIANT, CHEAP pinatas of every sort. I mean, HUGE pinatas for $ 20+. They had every wild-​looking Tinkerbell-​Chewbacca-​Princess-​Pikachu-​You-​Name-​It-​They-​Likely-​Have-​Some-​Bizarre-​Version-​Of-​It, but the thing that pushed them over the edge was the one I ended up buying. Tucked away in a corner was a piñata of a girl in a tuxedo, holding her own decapitated head in her hand, complete with paper blood splatters across her chest.
WHAT. THE. EFF.
Bingo! Precisely the odd party accessory I was looking for. I don’t know how they knew I was coming, but I’m fairly sure they made that one just for me.
The man who was working in the store was both hilarious AND super-​friendly, and we talked for a while about the store and all of the things they do (rentals of bounce houses and things like that, rentals of chairs and tables, etc.). They have a nice selection of big ol’ bags of Mexican candy for stuffing your perfect piñata, along with a fair selection of children’s party decorations, and a fair amount of baby shower items.
I can’t wait to find an excuse to go back! Don’t pass this one up. They are super-​gracious and helpful, and I felt really good about supporting this local business. You know you need a piñata. You need a piñata because it’s f*cking Wednesday. Why are you even still reading this?!

This store has everything you need to decorate for a party. The piñata selection is great, they have lots of candy, including Mexican candy. Most importantly, the service is great! The owner is really personable and cheerful.
I went here to rent some tables and chairs for a party but had to cancel at the last minute. I wasn’t able to get a refund, but I was guaranteed store credit. The owner kept track of my original order and credit 7 months later and I was able to use my credit in full without any issues even though I had lost the copy of the original order.

I stopped in out of curiosity since I wasn’t really in the market for an Easter piñata. However, I almost bought one because the selection and quality of the piñatas here was so great, and the prices seemed very reasonable. It appears to be a small store front, but once inside there were rows of colorful piñatas of all sizes, and some with detailed decoration. I did purchase other supplies here for my Easter party, including paper plates and some toys for the Easter basket. The owner was present and provided me with hands-​on, cheerful customer service.
