Bayside Florist - Birthday arrangement - Florists Near Me - Bayside, New York

Maybe this place isn't good for deliveries based on the negative reviews, but for my purposes of needing a quick spot to get pretty flowers from in a pinch they were great! Wanted to get my friend who loves blue a graduation bouquet and it came out super cute. They were easy to communicate with when picking out what flowers I wanted and how I wanted it arranged. Also, I found they were open later than other florists which was really helpful. read more

Went in to order a corsage and boutonniere for my son's prom showed her. The color of the dress told her she could do whatever she wanted and the final result was amazing. Would definitely go back again as this was my first time visiting the establishment owner is very creative and does amazing work. read more

I'm really confused as to why this establishment has been getting bad reviews and not that many stars. Eva is excellent! She goes above and beyond making sure there's plenty of communication every step of the way. I got my sweetheart table, bouquet, and flowers I needed for the guest tables from her. I was so happy with the outcome. Everyone loved the flowers during the evening of my engagement party! She made my vision come to life! Thanks again Eva for everything! read more

FYI this business is under new management and a lot of the phone number has changed. I HIGHLY recommend their beginner's floral arrangement class. It's $75 and lasts around 1 hour, and you get to walk away with a beautiful bouquet that alone probably retails around $75. The instructor/manager (Andrew) and the owner (Vivi) were very friendly and knowledgeable about flowers, and it was such a fun and informative experience. Can't recommend it enough. My mom loved her birthday bouquet. Also, just found out that the reason why this business has subpar reviews is mainly because Yelp is penalizing them for not paying a "Yelp fee", which is pretty messed up to do to a small business. This isn't the first time that Yelp has done this. read more

Walked in for mother day flowers for my Mom and Grandma. I got one small and one larger medium bouquet for around $100 total. I thought it was extremely reasonably priced compared to what other places were charging (another place quoted me a considerable amount more) and considering the amount of flowers and the quality. These look even fuller and prettier in person. I recommend going in to order. The girl who did my bouquet was so sweet and attentive, she was patient with me wanting to customize and when i changed my mind. She spent time to make sure everything looked right. 100% will come back for any floral needs! read more

I placed order in store for valentine's day, and made sure they would deliver it on time several time. I understood the day would be very busy for them but they failed the mission badly. They couldn't deliver it on time and postpone (maybe made another new one) and delivered in the late evening. However, I paid $100 and asked the staff to add more flowers for my original $56 one. Plus a $20 delivery fee.... $24 more bucks just gave me two more flowers, yes! Literally one more rose and one more cheep flower... I took picture and send to them.. they said they were pretty busy and felt sorry to refund me $20 . After days, they did not do anything or refund me any money... feel terribly and thought they just wanted to make money for not doing any great job. read more

these girls were the most professional and helpful staff i've ever met. i was originally skeptical of the shop due to the old bad reviews but it turns out the new team is friendly and capable. pricing is transparent, quality of service is unparalleled and the floral knowledge and is unmatched. would 100% recommend to anybody looking for quality flowers for their loved ones. Plus they have cute cats roaming the shop! read more

My husband got me a small bouquet and 2 days later they were dropping significantly. By the 3rd day most of the petals had fallen off. I trimmed them, gave them fresh water and the powder. Tulips usually last much longer but not these. I told him never to go there again. He would have been better off getting them half the price at a market. GO ELSEWHERE. read more

Ordered a $75 bouquet for Mother's Day. The first photo is what we got, the second is what we ordered from the website. Not only are flowers completely different, but the flowers that we got are cheaper than what we ordered. There was no update on this change and when we reached out about it, the lady who picked up the phone was rude and condescending. I understand that we are in a world pandemic. But if the shop is not able to handle on vast volume of orders, then they shouldn't have a special going on to generate business. We were told that we would be refunded $10. Let's hope that actually goes through. read more

This is a SCAM! NEVER shop here!! Worst experience I ever had! And I don't understand how they are still opened. No sense of respect of the customers at all!! I ordered flowers and presents to be delivered at 10:30am and paid really big money! But EXPENSIVE IS NOT ALWAYS GOOD, SOMETIMES IT IS THE WORST After several calls they delivered a wrong bouquet with no presents at all! I spent a week in debates, and they never admitted they haven't delivered my presents. After I told them I will go to the police with my camera recordings where we can only see the flowers, they refunded me 50$ telling it's fine to substitute my flowers with other flowers, mentioning nothing about the presents, and I have to TALK TO ANOTHER STORE THEY MADE MY ORDER FROM, and never even told me the name of the store!! This is A SCAM read more

I only gave one star because yelp made me. I was browsing the neighborhood and I walked past the floral shop. I saw some Plants on sale and wanted to see what else they had to offer. I walk in and the owners back is toward me so I say "HELLO" so that he knows I'm there. Plus I didn't want to startle him. He nods back and does or say nothing else. I'm browsing browsing browsing still nothing!!! No "how can I help you?" No " are you shopping for anything specific NOTHING! I continue browsing awkwardly. At this point my back is facing him, when I turn around I notice he has a worker or an assistant in the building .... well, his assistant said nothing to me never offered help or anything they just stared as I browsed NOW IM ANNOYED .... This man has no other customers in his business but chose to ignore me. People like that are so evil they shoot their own selves in the foot Won't catch me stepping foot in that place again That guy is a miserable asshole! read more

I went to Bayside Florists yesterday to place a delivery order for my co worker who was having surgery done. There were two young lady's at the counter. One came over and assisted me with placeing a Get Well Soon Flower Delivery order. She informed me that there's a minimum purchase of $50 for delivery, and the delivery fee is $14. I places my order and before paying , I asked if there was a surcharge for the use f a credit card, and she said there is but if I pay with cash, she'll waive the tax. I paid with cash instead. Today, my co worker received her flower order as planned. She said it was the most beautiful bouquet, and they smelled so wonderful. They're definately making her recooperation much better. read more

Ordered Valentine's Day flowers for my mother through this company, they insured me they will be delivered on time. Emailed me on the holiday at 4 pm telling me they would be unable to deliver them for that day and again insured me that they would be delivered the following day. Now 2 days later, I give them a call, explaining the situation and they tell me they decided to cancel the order without my knowledge. After explaining the situation to the aggressive woman on the phone, she provides me with no apology or good explanation of why the order would have been canceled but that I should "ask the man I spoke with why." I told her that these mothers were for my mother and she then said her "mother is dead." Then hung up the phone. TERRIBLE customer service, unreliable, just overall bad vibes. I wouldn't buy dirt from them. read more

I've been lucky enough to receive two bouquets as gifts from Bayside Florist and both have been gorgeous! The flowers look just as lively a week after as they do the day they arrived. The delivery driver was even kind enough to leave me a voicemail to confirm I received my order after I was unable to answer my bell. Overall I would definitely recommend! read more

I have ordered from here multiple times. Beautiful, fresh flowers, quick delivery and exactly what I ask for every time.

service is poor, the shop is not professional, bought the potted plant to me too high, agreed to include the chassis, but found that did not give, want to get a solution, do not reply to the message, a very bad flower shop, we must not go to buy read more

I ordered a bouquet of flowers from Bayside Florist​ for my friend​ who was starting a new job. The bouquet cost $75.00 and was to be delivered to my friend's​ home​. When she sent me a photo of the bouquet I was truly SHOCKED! It was very small​ and had exactly SEVEN flowers-nothing exotic but rather a few​ small tulips, carnations, ​and a rose--that is over $10.00 a stem. When I called​ I was told they follow a "template". The sad bouquet my friend received looked NOTHING like what was on the website. This was my​ worst expericne with a florst. read more

I used this florist for the first time because it was a local delivery. I selected a get well bouquet made up of three types of flowers. I checked with the recipient a few days later who told me that although the bouquet was pretty, the white roses were not fresh. The petals started to fall off starting the next day. I have ordered from other florists whereby their roses don't wilt by the day after delivery. This person has an air conditioned house, made sure there was water in the vase and added the flower supplement but nothing helped. Certainly, we were both disappointed. read more

I found the staff to be discourteous. I received no greeting, no thanks, no goodbye. I haven't bought too many flowers in my life, but the flowers were pretty expensive. I bought my flowers in-store and walked out with them, and the roses are $4 each with no special pricing per dozen. Thus, I paid $48 for a dozen roses. They were nice roses (nice colors, fragrant), but I know I can pick-up flowers that are just as nice from local competitors at a much lower cost. If the difference was only a few bucks I wouldn't be so turned off, but with other options just as convenient and more affordable, I'll probably not come back soon. read more

my experience was great ! one thing i like is the communcation ! they never get annoyed with me calling x amount of time

Ok, I may as well add my glowing 1 star review to the collection of one star reviews. My friend and I went in to get ideas, suggestions and prices for her wedding flowers. The man behind the counter wasn't very friendly or informative. Then, as soon as we said we need flowers for a wedding and we're looking to make it as inexpensive as possible, he said: "we don't have cheap flowers. You want cheap flowers, you have to go someplace else." So we did. And we hope you will too. Just nasty! I should have expected that from a business with so many caged birds. Wish I could set the birds free and put the owner in that cage. read more

Bad experience with getting flowers from this local business.... i paid $102 and never received it. read more

Horrible store. Very very very expensive. I repeat, very expensive. You can feel free to compare them with the florists a couple blocks from them and you would agree with what I am saying. So they are greedy. In addition to that, they do not care about their customers. Rude on the phone, ruder in person. When you argue that their price is way higher than the other places, the owner would tell you to go ahead and buy it from them. And then, I followed what he said and bought my flowers from others. Guess what? I am happy and never coming back to this place again. Kinda hope they close up soon so the store would be available for a decent business owner. P.S. and this is how the store owner responded to criticism. Highly doubt they have been in business for 50 years: "Obviously, you have the right to shop wherever you'd like and we appreciate you exercising that right and never using our services. We've been in business for 50 years! We are not hurting for business - especially from someone who feels entitled to tell a professional florist and business owner how much a dozen roses should cost. Obviously, you know nothing about the complexities of floral arrangement, flower buying, or operating a business. " Basically he is telling me to f-off and do not bother coming to their store, and at the same time further insulting me by saying "what the hell do you know about flowers?" Yes, I agree that running a business is complex, and the owner is obviously not handling the complexity very well. And I almost choked on my water when I saw him calling himself a "professional florist". read more

I ordered online a flower arrangement for a wake. I did not receive what I ordered and it was very late. They sent the order to Rainbow Florist because it was not over $100. So I will never order anything from either florist. So if you are ordering out of town please find someone else. read more

We had a mix up. I'm not sure it was their fault tbh so 3 stars as benefit of the doubt.

I went to this flower shop recently and had a very good experience. The price was reasonable and the staff made the arrangement so fast but yet gorgeous. My friend LOVED the flowers. Not sure what other viewers were talking about. There were two young ladies there and they were very friendly. Definitely will go again! read more

Horrible customer service!! Just went in there to buy roses , and just asked that he make the bouquet look pretty since it's for my mom.. His exact words were "I don't know what the hell you want!" I was in the store for literally 3 minutes not like I was wasting his time or taking forever I just wanted the bouquet to look good and was relying on his expertise.. After he spoke to me like that I walked out. Terrible service. read more

Totally disappointed with my mother in law's birthday flower arrangement. Ordered the premium daisies for $85.00. There were no more than three bunches of daisies and three skinny branches of little purple flowers. Really...how much do daisies cost? I could've and will from here on in go to BJ'S and get three dozen beautiful roses for half the price. Pictures on this website do not represent what you pay for. read more

DON'T GO HERE! I wish I could give this establishment 0 stars. The man behind the counter is extremely rude and doesn't even know what he is talking about. I had to walk out as he was mumbling things under his breath. Do yourself a favor and go down the block to Bell Bay florist. Gus from Bell Bay is very nice, knowledgeable, and accommodating. read more

I got Married on 2/14/2009 and after we booked the majority of our vendors my Fiance and realized that flowers would be too expensive so I ended up doing the majority of the flowers for the wedding myself. As any bride I really wanted my Bouquet professionally done along with the boutonnieres...so long story short the florist (the really skinny guy with the glasses, I don't care to remember his name) talked me into booking with him and promised a beautiful job and described such a pretty bouquet to me. I specifically told him I DO NOT WANT ANY BABIES-BREATH!! He said no problem, we paid $165.00 and left. The day of the wedding my fiancé went to pick up the flowers at around 9:30am and no one was aware of a wedding order. My fiancé told them he would be back in 20 min. The florist threw together 12 closed red roses (I was promised 16 opened red roses) and a TON of BABIES-BREATH (I was promised white waxed cherries interlaced between the open roses!!) they tied the whole thing together with white paper ribbon and shiny scotch tape, all the way around the stems!!! As you can imagine, I was very anxious on that day and when my flowers arrived I wanted to cry!! My maid of honor called and told them it was wrong and that we are sending someone with the bouquet to be fixed. Being that they were in the wrong, you would think they would correct the mistake, BUT NO! They completely disrespected my bridesmaid in the store, kicked her out and told her to leave and that they were too busy!! They actually used profane language!!! My bridesmaid begged them to fix it some how and they just continued to curse and tell her to get out!! It was not until she said she would be sure to write a bad review they actually tried to fix the crappy bouquet. All they did was rip out the babies-breath shoved some more closed roses and red cherries in and sent her on her way. At the end I had to fix and redo my bouquet while in my wedding dress in front of my bridal party, photographer, and videographer. And BTW the boutonnières rose heads broke off before the ceremony; thank God I made some of my own two nights before. My now husband and I went back to let them know how we felt and the owner didn't seem to care until I told him I would be writing a bad review. We never received an apology. They should have never taken a wedding Job on Valentines Day and completely disrespect the customer, they way that I felt I was. read more

The absolute worst. Unprofessional: owners arguing at counter, ignoring customers. No Hi, Bye, or Thanks. Charge prices higher than posted ("Those are old"...then change em dude.) Flowers died in two days. Valentine's day desperation got me once, but never again. read more

Bad experience with getting flowers from this local business. Had flowers & chocolates sent to me by friend. I spoke with manager Greg after being called from my husband indicating that Bayside florist wanted to work with me on delivery options. Spoke with manager Greg and asked him to leave on front steps of house. He said he didnt want to do that becuase of the cold weather and the flowers were delicate. I understand that, but thats when the story goes south.. He kept pressing me for neigbors to leave flowers with. I advised that the neighbors work long hours like I do and NOT to leave them, I would even come by store to pick up What does he do?! - He delivers them and leaves them with a neighbor. When I asked him about it, he said his deliveryman had already left and he couldn't get in touh with him. - what deliveryman has no cell phone? Additionally, I told him no choc were received and I wanted the full order what was paid for. He said I guess forgot to send them. He was difficult to work with, the full order was not delivered and you should avoid this busniess as much as possible. He even lost my phone number and had to call my husband to get it again. Disorganized and disappointing to say the least. - so lets see if I get my chocs after he reads this review!. read more

I do not recommend getting flowers from this shop. My mom placed an order online for flowers to be delivered in Chicago. Bayside does not send the flowers from NY of course, but they contacted another flower shop in Chicago. About a week after the order was placed, my mom asked if I had received the flowers and of course I did not. I called the flower shop and left a VM. Then I called Bayside and was told the flower shop in Chicago had confirmed them delivery, which of course did not happen. The person I talked to from Bayside was polite. He apologized and said he would do an upgrade. I received the flower arrangement today but no upgrade. I received the exact arrangement my mom purchased. I don't think anyone should pay more than $50.00 for 12 red tulips. read more

Do not use Bayside Florist!! Total rip-off and extremely rude!! My best friend ordered flowers for her fiance's wake. She ordered them to be in the shape of the NY Rangers emblem since her fiance was a huge Ranger fan. When they were delivered we were horrified and she was embarrassed by them. She had previously ordered the same thing when her brother passed away a few years ago and that arrangement was beautiful but, unfortunately she couldn't remember where she ordered them from so she ordered these through the funeral parlor's website and wound up with Bayside Florist. What a mistake!! What they sent was a display of daisies that were flattened and then spray painted with a stencil. The words were also spray-painted on but were crooked and the letters were so round that they looked like a child wrote them. And they charged her $600. for this crap!! She called them today to see about getting a partial refund and was told that it was too late and she should have called when they were delivered. She tried to explain that she was trying to deal with the wake and the death of her fiance but they told her "too bad" and hung up on her. It's bad enough when you order flowers and when they arrive they aren't what you thought they would be but this was her fiance's wake! And the florist could care less! They are a rip-off and just mean, nasty people! Not sure how they stay in business!!! read more
