Avenue Press

Awesome. Within minutes I was in and out with a print job I had priced else where that was 4x cheaper! My only regret was not finding them sooner. They have my business from now on, in fact I will be returning in April for my next printing needs!!! Gilbert, keep doing what you are doing :)

Gilbert saved the day! He took a project I had been working on for hours and perfected it in minutes. My only regret was that I did not go to Avenue Press sooner.
Inexpensive and excellent customer service. Doesn’t get better than that-​check them out!

First timer at an actual legit print shop! I have been stressing over my wedding invites for months. I tried the DIY route but everything kept going wrong. Finally, decided to take my hair stylists advice and go to Avenue Press. I’m sure glad I did. The owner saved the day by working with what I had and actually printed on his own card stock since what I bought was off on the color. The quality was amazing! The price was also as amazing as his work. I highly recommend this business to anyone and everyone! I will be coming back!

I called and let Gilbert know I was extremely late on getting my sisters baby shower invitations printed. I came in with a sample Gilbert designed and print and cut same day! Completely saved me!

I always prefer local small businesses! This one is a gem! Gilbert (owner) was so helpful. I sent him a file of invites I needed to be printed out. 1^st he waited for me to pick up these invites before he closed. 2^nd when I saw the invites, they were lighter then the proof I was sent from the creator. He wasn’t gonna let me leave without being 100% happy. He made a couple attempts til he made it just perfect for me. The price was more than affordable. This is the only print shop for me.

Omg!!! I walked into Avenue Press in Downey just to price Baby Shower Invites and walked out in an hour with BEAUTIFUL invites, custom labels and envelopes at an AMAZING price! This is the absolute BEST printer I have ever used! Superior customer service! This is not just a business but a professional business relationships! Thank you Gilbert for the Excellent service!

There are few times I need to run like a chicken with it’s head cut off if it doesn’t concern my kids. So, when I first needed to make card invites for an event, I looked for what was nearest me.
Avenue Press and Fed-​Ex were at the closest proximities, so I called them for pricing. I was surprised to here that Avenue had lower, if not similar, prices to Fed-​Ex. So, considering the type of paper (cardstock) I needed, I went in, since previous visits to Fed-​Ex have proved to me that most employees don’t know many options nor how to explain things unless it’s a paper jam or file type.
At first, no one usually will greet you and the entrance is a small space with many printers all huddled up close together. The cash register reads that only cash accepted, amd no large bills eother. You also need to have what you want in mind. Lucky for me, the manager was at a nearby computer working in a cubicle and asked me what I needed while adding a simple «Hi!» I asked what would be best for pricing and material in my need and also other areas as a photographer myself. He explained things down to the point, not a beat-​around-​the-​bush kinda guy nor a seller, and got working on my prints right there. No need for me to push buttons, he took my USB drive, made necessary adjustments himself and started printing. His work was on point too.
Turns out he also makes designs for what you need, be it for business or personal use, like business cards, brochures, birthday invites, baby shower invites, t-​shirt prints, banners, etc. You name it, he can make it happen and if he can’t, he’ll figure out how to do it. You can even email qhat you need, even filea and work with him that way to just pick up and pay. He is a very hands-​on printing guy and treats repeat customers as old friends.
All in all, his expert knowledge is amazing and quality is great for a lower and very comparible price to others. His jokes can be a bit sarcastic, and you might miss a few of them if your head is on just the job you need from him. He’ll even keep your business cards there if you ask him for future customers. He supports community events, helps local organizations with fliers, and aids small businesses in their printing needs. He even keeps a small TV on for guests (I assume), but will be multi-​tasking as he listens in and makes small talk about what’s on the screen.
Generally, he can make your prints right there, if it’s small enough, or for pick-​up later or another day, depending on the delicacy of the work needed.
