    Premium Desert Sunrise. Gorgeous!!!

    Requested just after hours on line for next day delivery. I called morning of to make sure they had what they needed. They were super friendly. The flowers were delivered that afternoon and were exactly as pictured on the website. They were gorgeous and fresh and my daughter was thrilled.

    Excellent service, and friendly staff. I've gotten two beautiful arrangements here, and both times I gave them a price range and they put together something really lovely within 20 minutes. Floral arrangements can feel so overpriced, but at Barbara's I feel like I get excellent value. And getting to support a local small business is a nice bonus!

    Where do I start? This place is as unprofessional as they come. The first time I came it was 10:15am on a weekday, on crutches. They were closed. You could imagine my disappointment traveling to this plant shop to make myself feel better about a sprained ankle and they're not even open. However, I understand. With NY train delays, or just commuting in NY as a whole can be a little treacherous. So instead of waiting I decided to try again another day. A few weeks later, and a semi recovered sprained ankle, I decided to go back on a weekend during lunch hours. This time, they were open. It's a small boutique smushed in between a few random stores so do not expect much. When I walked in there was one other customer and a man in the back room. My friend and I were never greeted. We shrugged it off and looked around at the plant selections they had available. It was a selection with potential, but everything was dying. Literally every plant had numerous dead leaves. I was pretty bummed. We walked to the front and the back of the store twice to make sure we didn't miss anything and still not even a hello. The customer had already left and the man working stayed in the back room. Apparently his game of solitaire was much more important. At that point I was over it. I've given Barbara's Flowers two tries and I was disappointed both times. It's a shame, this shop is not too far from my apartment and I would've loved for it to be my new jungle haven, but I guess I'm still on the hunt.

    Love love love Barbara's Flowers! My go to for personal arrangements and events. The customer service is incredible and their knowledge and artistic hands are unmatched. My girlfriends bouquets last longer when I get the from Tara & the crew. My brides (and their guests) have nothing but great things to say about their bouquets and centerpieces. You are in great hands if you choose Barbara's Flowers.

    I am really disappointed with the floral arrangement that I received from Barbara's flowers. Let me start by saying I reached out via email on April 9th requesting a quote based on the arrangement I wanted. Eight days went by without a response therefore I called the establishment and forwarded the email I sent on April 9th. I received a response fairly quick and I was very specific with what I wanted and includes a photo as well. I was told that the arrangement would cost $125-$150, so I opted for the $150 arrangement because I was hoping for a luxurious and beautiful arrangement. Unfortunately when I picked up the arrangement yesterday it was far from what I expected. The flowers were dried out and some were even dead. I specifically wanted darker pink roses as I showed in my inspiration photo and there were NONE whatsoever! The large vase that I received to place the arrangement on top of was cracked in the top as well. Given that the flowers were pre-paid and I made the transaction seamless for Barbara's Flowers, I expected quality but received less than. Lastly, the total was $163.31 and I truly feel overcharged for what I received. I will never utilize their services again. I am leaving one stars for the following: 1) The arrangement was ready at the pick up time. Shop at your own risk!

    $40 later... Pretty!

    Great prices, beautiful presentation and friendly people. I wanted some flowers to add a touch of spring to my apartment, told the guy that I wanted to spend $40, and walked away with a beautiful bouquet of purple lilies, orange roses, red orchids and pretty light and dark tropical greens. It was beautifully arranged and wrapped with bamboo and bright green tissue. I really love it, and it would easily cost $80+ somewhere else in NYC or from 1-800-flowers. I didn't love that they don't have their cut flowers out on display - it's obvious most of their $$ comes in from events and deliveries - but I'm glad I trusted them with my money anyway. If you're looking for something very specific I'd give them a call and make a special request in advance, rather than trying to stop in on the fly. I don't think their inventory is consistent or expansive, more overage from their large orders. They will definitely be my go to florist, I'm more than glad to spend my money locally and get a very pretty bang for my buck. :) Yay! Spring!

    They gave me a very small bouquet of half-wilted flowers for almost $40. Not coming back.

I knew exactly who to call when I needed a special Mother's Day bouquet for my mother-in-law. I spent $50, but it honestly felt like I got so much more than what I paid for. The flowers were fresh, beautifully arranged, and clearly chosen with care. Huge thanks to Lena for the stunning arrangement--my mother-in-law absolutely loved it! I'll definitely be ordering again.

When I brought their vision to Lena at Alaric, she listened intently and immediately understood what they were after. Her solution was brilliant: instead of overwhelming the space with flowers, she designed a striking tall vase of calla lilies for the bar (with matching bouquet and boutonniere), then created a breathtaking display of 120 candles in varying sizes for the tables and altar. Lena arrived an hour and a half before the ceremony to set everything up, and the result was pure magic--gorgeous, ethereal, twinkling, and dramatic. It was exactly the modern elegant vibe the couple had dreamed of. Everything exceeded our wildest expectations: the creative design, the meticulous setup, and the extremely reasonable cost. I've already recommended Alaric to all my friends, and I honestly can't imagine ever using another florist in the city. Lena turned their vision into reality, and we couldn't be more grateful.

I…read morehave gone to this shop a couple of times 1st to get info on types of plants they have as i have NEVER owned a plant. 2nd time i went to purchase, off course its cash only and no one carries cash these days. The guy looked angry when i said ok well ill come back another time w/cash. I did return a week later. I asked him questions about another plant and prices... he was on his cell phobe and got angry and said "you never buy anything!!!" I was shocked and said well yea i told u i.was coming back with cash... After a few mins of me asking normal plant questions (i never owned a plant just wanted to know how long this lasts) he said "Please leave" ...i was like what ?? He kept repeating u don't buy.. go and i was like what are u talking about I need to know prices on a few plants bc i was going to buy a couple... So this employee comes from behind the counter and PUTS his Hands on my upper arm and practically pushed me out....his face was so close to mine i yelled to back off!! And asked the owners name... off course he didn't say anything .. i was shocked he came so close bc of COVID ... now im freaking out. So ur basically not allowed to come into the shop more than once ?? Or ask questions??? This place is disturbing and they don't know how to run a business.

First reason Im writing this review is because the negative reviews on google seem like such BS... one review is negative because the man asked if the flowers are cat friendly... wtf are you talking about dude. Its a flower shop not a veterinarian.. you should know which flowers are good or not since you're the cat owner. Second reason is because of bs reviews about customer service. Both reviewers seemed to think they're the only people to exist and that the shop owner needs to bow before them.. Give me a break, they're a busy flower shop and they were helping other people... allowing you to look at the options until you come and tell them what you want. Stop being babys and then running to google reviews and trying to hurt a small business. 5 stars all the way for being straight up New Yorkers and having quality products.

    TERRIBLE service, TERRIBLE products…read more I went with my son to order a corsage and boutonnière for his prom. We described what we wanted. Two days later, we came to pick up the order and we were SHOCKED!!! The roses they used were wilted, stained and HUGE, so big that they would not fit on my son's lapel and the wrist corsage would have reached the elbow of my son's date. When I asked them if they thought the items were too large, they were rude and told me that they would be fine. The corsage and boutonnière were UNACCEPTABLE and the staff were extremely rude. We picked these up the afternoon of the prom and when I asked if they could help us make them smaller or redo, they refused to help. My son and I were extremely disappointed, these were not inexpensive items and they treated us poorly. I would DISCOURAGE ANYONE from using this florist!
