Santa B was just perfect. He is the real deal. I had him for my 5 year old birthday party (40 kids). He has a real beard, he is sweet, he is patient, he is kind. He is Santa!

We hired Santa B Cause for our family Christmas party since he was a local (New York City in his profile), has a real beard and price was good. However, on the day of our event, he did not show up because he was going to be over 1 hour late, maybe 2 hours since he was far. He was actually coming from UPSTATE NEW YORK (found from cell#) which was 1.5 hours away from our event held in Central Park East! I thought he was a local and knew the area well but he says he was LOST due to his GPS taking him Brooklyn/Queens. We had over 30 family members and they were very disappointed that Santa did not show up and probably at me as well since I hired him. I do not recommend.

It is very unfortunate that I have to leave this review, however I feel it is VERY important to know what you're getting yourself into. I have hired this Santa 3 times & 2 out of the 3 times, he was LATE. This last time he was a half hour late! Absolutely unacceptable! When you are paying someone almost $100 an hr, being a half hr late is NOT OKAY! His wife called me ONLY 15 minutes before my sessions were to start to let me know he would be this late, which gave me 15 minutes to contact 12 families and TWO cancelled because of it. He never offered a more reasonable rate. He was a half hour late & I released him a half hour early due to two cancellations. Horrible!
:
This is the third time ,Iris hired me as her Santa ,
proving we created beautiful artistic pictures together.
Unfortunately the traffic on Nov. 26th
was incredibly busy due Christmas shoppers .
It took me 4 1/2 hours to get home
over the George Washington and North.
I am truly sorry that she feels this way ,
Her Customers for pictures walked in and said...
"It's the real Santa".,and were delighted .
You can see her pictures, by Iris, of me
as Santa on my Santa B. Cause page.
....A Merry Christmas to all, and all a Good Night

This is my 2nd yr booking w/Santa B Cause & I could not say enough about him. He was extra patient w/ me as we went back & forth via email in regards to the event, he answered a ton of questions & was extremely accommodating even when it came to changing the date of my event.
He arrived early, he was upbeat, happy & jolly (just as you'd imagine Santa should be). He took all direction wonderfully. His expressions were AMAZING. He was SO GREAT during each session, never missing a beat. He was WONDERFUL with all the children. I highly recommend & will def. use him for many yrs. to come. THANK YOU SANTA!!! I DO BELIEVE!! You are exceptional.

Santa B Clause was excellent. He arrived on time and in character. My party was surprised to see he and was taken aback but he was expert at warming up the crowd of children and adults from a scared 3 yr old boy to a 81 yr old grandma. He gave out gifts, he read stories to the kids, he joined the teen dance contest.... and this was all on Christmas night! My 6 yr old can tell her friends Santa came to a Christmas party at her house. I highly recommend him. He is the Real Santa

We were extremely pleased!! Incredibly authentic! Our kids (ranges 4-10). All were in awe and believed he was the "real deal" (even had a few of us adults scratching our heads). Santa did a great job accommodating our crazy schedule requirements (even though his schedule was equally...ok moreso crazy than ours). Was wonderful with the kids and adults!!!! Would hire again and again!!!

I hired Santa B Clause for a Holiday Party that I organized on Thursday, December 15th.
I really appreciated his professionalism and flexibility with the schedule.
He did a fantastic job: grand entrance with music and dance, he talked and took picture with every single child, gave them their presents. The kids were so impressed! Everybody loved him.

Let's start with you get what you pay for. He was the least expensive real bearded Santa I could find for the time period. He was 30 minutes late. He did offer to stay later but due to time constraints at the location that wasn't possible. Santa is old. He walks with a cane and is very soft spoken, often rambling on. Not the deep voice jolly man you would expect. Can't even image him reading to the children. Santa did pose for pictures and that went well. My advice is speak with santa FIRST. Be clear on what's expected and ask questions.

Santa B Cause was a hit at my son's Christmas themed baptism reception. The children and adults both loved him and I received so much positive feedback regarding his demeanor. He was so jolly and friendly... A REAL Santa! I would hire him again without hesitation!

He was fantastic! From beginning to end...he was...SANTA! He was so wonderful with the children and myself. Being that I am a photographer, I paint a picture and have my ideas all worked out before he even arrived and he followed along so wonderfully. I can't say enough wonderful things about him. THANK YOU for your wonderful services and for making all the children ***believe***! What an amazing experience.

Very nice, friendly and professional. The children (ages 2 to 6) absolutely loved every minute he was with them. The parents were amazed how "real" he looked. He took the time to talk to each child that came up to him with a jolly Ho Ho Ho. We were very pleased with Santa B.Cause

Santa B. Cause made our Breakfast with Santa great! He never broke character and looked great. He read the Night Before Christmas to all of the kids and posed for photos for several hours with a big jolly grin.

Santa B Cause (John) was fantastic. Professional, kind, accomodating, & patient. He really could be Santa! He took the time to remember key facts about the kids & their background. He also gave them a small history lesson!

Corporate Function•Reviewed on December 19, 2013•From New York City, NY
Looked the part.
Needed to command and engage the room as Santa a little more.
Too soft spoken, although with a deep Santa-ish voice
If I were to hire again I would want someone with the ability to get the party going in a more festive manner.
