I ordered lavender rosemary latte but my coffee came as plain latte. The tall girl with short colorful hair is weird as if she has something against you! The food was even worse. My salad was full of wilted vegetables, and the bacon and potatoes were cold, hard, and clearly cooked hours ago. To top it off, the plates have deep grooves that make it impossible to eat--ketchup and egg yolks get stuck in the grooves. I genuinely worried about the material's safety. If you want to help people, start by serving fresh, safe food. I wouldn't be surprised if that salad was a health hazard. I just wasted over $30 for a very low quality food. Also, all the great looking food in the photos on yelp, on not served any longer.

Wowowowowow this place is straight-up magical. We visited in December around the holidays, and it…read morefelt like stepping into a full-on winter wonderland. Truly an incredible spot for families with little ones, but also just enchanting for anyone who loves plants, decor, or cozy vibes. The plant selection is massive, the seasonal decor is stunning, and the gift shop?? Dangerous. I wanted one of everything. On top of all that, they have a café on site with drinks and food, which makes it way too easy to linger longer than planned (no regrets). Swanson's is one of those rare places that feels like a destination, not just a store. An absolute gem & I'm obsessed.

We bought several bamboos from Stan and he was always very knowledgeable and honest about which…read morebamboo to choose and his bamboos have now grown to full size and given our house the privacy from our neighbors that we so dearly wanted. But what really sets Stan apart from others, is that when we just had some of our bamboos "dieing" after many years of nurturing them, he actually took the time to give us advice when there was no sale involved. He told us to water our bamboos more and the leaves would come back on the bamboos that are still not completely dead, instead of cutting them all down now as we feared that we had to do. This saved our day, after all the hard work we have done to finally get our beloved bamboos to full size. So Stan is not only a good businessman but also a nice person who believes in taking care of old customers and helping people in need of his expertise!

What hasn't changed is Stan's generosity with his time, his knowledge, and that personal touch. Even though we were there for a small purchase, he gave us a full tour of his bamboo inventory, his personal grove, and even popped over to his adjacent sunflower and bean garden. The whole visit was charming and unmistakably "Stan." He's a true Seattleite: open & friendly, deeply committed, and clearly passionate about what he does. Whether you're starting a grove, looking for privacy screening, or just curious in general about bamboo, he'll likely pass along more knowledge than you ever expected, be it advice on containment, growing habits, or simply his thoughts on life in general. Stan is truly a pillar of old Seattle, so support him while you still can. His is the kind of local business that makes Seattle the delightfully quirky and one-of-a-kind place that it is.

I immediately ignored their advice and gave my new plant a piece of gyro meat, which it appeared to enjoy, clasping shut, appearing to eat it...to digest it...to break it down...or whatever Venus flytraps do to meat. The next day, it didn't seem like my new plant was enjoying its meal. So, like an idiot, I Googled, "What happens if I give meat to my Venus flytrap?" I retrieved the uneaten piece of meat (with tweezers), but the gyro-eating part of the plant turned black. Then it died. So, I cut it off, apologizing to the rest of it, promising to water it every day and let it sort out the food business on its own.

The representatives offered insightful recommendations - knowing what is allowed at the location where the service was held, as well as the benefit of the arrangement we chose.

Driving by, I completely missed it because from the outside it looks less like a flower shop and more like someone's auntie's house that also "might sell flowers on the side." I had to bust a U-turn and seriously question whether my GPS was setting me up. Then I pull up and see a sign that says "Ring Doorbell." At this point I'm thinking, "Am I buying roses or accidentally joining a secret society?" To make things even more interesting, it's right in the middle of the Aurora strip, so the whole vibe had me double-checking my life choices for a second. BUT... surprisingly, the flowers were actually decent, and the prices were fair considering it was the only spot open around the area at the time. So while the outside gives "mystery side quest," the flowers came through in the clutch. If you can get past the "this definitely can't be the place" feeling at first, you'll probably walk out with what you need and a funny story afterward.

They only charged $10.00 for same day delivery. The price of bouquet in the basket (I chose the premium version) was very reasonable. I definitely recommend them and will use again!

My beautiful 91-year-old Grandmother sent me a bouquet of holiday flowers today from this Florist…read more My Grandmother enjoys sending bouquets of flowers to her family and her many friends several times per year, so I have received many other bouquets of flowers from her in past years. However, this is the first time that I have been moved to get on to yelp in order to write a review of any of the florists that she has used. My bouquet is gorgeous! It's obvious that a lot of thought, care, and creativity went in to this lovingly-crafted flower arrangement. I called my Grandmother right away to thank her, and I was raving about the flowers in a whole new way from the way that I have raved about the previous bouquets that she has sent me from other florists. My Grandmother had asked this florist to deliver my flowers today, and she had given me a heads-up to expect the flowers today. So, this florist was timely and delivered the flowers on the day that she had asked them to. My only very small complaint is that the delivery driver rang my doorbell so hard I thought he was going to break it, but, having received many bouquets of flowers from many many people (not just my lovely Grandmother), I am aware that this doorbell behavior is unfortunately somewhat par for the course with flower deliveries. It's okay! We'll hear our doorbell! You don't have to press down on it so hard that it sounds like it's being strangled!! Thank you, Northgate Rosegarden, for the GORGEOUS flower arrangement! (And Thank You, Gramma, for sending these to me!!) Happy Holidays! This lovely winter flower arrangement is definitely brightening up my holiday season!
