You can easily order online - very easy process, except that I wanted to send two different…read moreproducts to one person. So I made two separate orders. I was impressed that I received a call right away to confirm that was not a mistake (thank you because you never know these days if someone has stolen your credit card or that you hit the back button and ordered twice by accident). That was much appreciated! And it was nice to know someone is at the store to assist if you need human interaction. And as one of the items was sold out, she recommended a suitable replacement and without hassle, the item was substituted. Delivery was prompt and products were received in good condition. So... I will definitely order here from now on.

Well, last weekend I figured I'd do some adventure-shopping which led me to this little hideaway. Once you open the door, you'll be surprised by what you find. Unlike the pretty unremarkable exterior, the inside is kind of adorable with a section dedicated to festive teddy bears greeting you at the door. It's all very 'country kitchen' but that's a relief when you don't know if you're walking into a flower boutique or a total dive. Staff were friendly, helpful, and quite lovely as I checked out some of their premade bouquets and pretended for a minute I could come up with something unique from the mix-and-match selection. Spoiler: I couldn't. So I walked out with a nice glass globe holding some stones, watery greens, and a Gerbera daisy for $20. Modern, simple, and a nice way to celebrate a dose of Spring in the middle of February!

It was for her birthday and we wanted to surprise her with something special, we even paid extra to have some additional flowers put into the bouquet. When we got it though the flowers were a mess, the bouquet didn't even have the extra flowers we paid for in it!! All in all it was a complete waste of our money, we could have gotten something better from Costco for 30$ We will never go there again

This reflects another review and might even have been why I chose Janet's flowers- someone said…read morethat they usually send "teleflora" selections but chose to go with the "designers choice" and they were very impressed. And other people mentioned the freshness of the flowers. I sent my mother flowers (ordered from NYC actually online) and I AM SO IMPRESSED. All I said was that she "likes pink" and they made the most beautiful arrangement. I have photos on my phone so I may come back and attach them but if you are hesitating- ORDER FROM THEM!!! But I may have also benefitted from ordering early for mother's day (delivered on the Friday/today). I'm writing this ASAP so everyone knows- order your flowers early for Mother's day (or birthdays or whatever) from Janet's flowers in Dartmouth!!! Thank you!

I'm not big on shopping so this task becomes tedious and onerous at best. To make matters worse, most souvenir shops are boring and tacky. Fortunately Maine Heritage is an exception. Sure it's filled with crummy t-shirts, refrigerator magnets, post cards and a plethora of stupid and tacky items. But it does have some interesting jewelry, books, and rather cool and useful clothing. The best part is that it is one large room which means you can move around without bumping into other people looking for crummy souvenirs. Plus it has some nice decorations and nautical things to look at . The store is located right on the boardwalk which makes it very convenient and has great views of the water, islands and ships. Just a short walk to get to the maritime museum or other cool things. Sure the Marine Heritage Store is a touristy place filled with touristy stuff. But if you need to get some crummy t-shirts or other touristy items it might as well be in a store with a cool water view. A nice place to buy a crummy t-shirt

Designing wedding bouquets from a distance, with florists you've never met....challenging right? In…read moreaddition, the wedding flowers were a gift, so I was designing them sight on unseen from my friends getting married. Tracy at Dean's Flowers spoke to me on the phone and by email until we nailed down beautiful beautiful flowers. They lasted over a day - we had to pick them up the day before the morning wedding because we transported them to Grand Pre on the North coast. Bouquets looked amazing two days later when we boarded the plane for NY. Amazing. In the end, they came in $80 under my budget max....so impressive. If you live in Halifax, are getting married in Nova Scotia, I highly recommend Tracy and the team at Dean's.

Every time I have called, the staff have been so friendly and accommodating. I have made requests such as 'unconventional arrangement, in a vase', 'something with lots of color and, oh, can you also add some chocolate?'... Last week was my M.I.L's BDay. I called mid afternoon for 'a planter arrangement' to be delivered that day - the lady I spoke to on the phone explained how many varieties they could fit in for what price. I truly appreciate great service and I feel I get it every time from Dean's! M.I.L called that evening to express just how beautiful the planter was. Thank you Dean's. You'll be hearing from me again soon (since Mother's Day is this Sunday!)

Everything from birdhouses to geo-caching containers. It's got it all, something to bring home from your visit, or to add to your home. The prices are slightly touristy. The woman running the shop is delightful and was incredibly helpful. It's situated within an old container, which I think is just awesome. This shop, and all of the hidden gems on the wharf are a must see.
