Went here to buy a plant as a gift and then later for a bouquet, and to reiterate what other reviewers have said, Moe really has a love for his trade. He helped me choose the perfect plant for my flatmate, and later made me the most gorgeous, aromatic, and long lasting bouquet I've ever seen from this area! The bouquet lasted for (I believe) more than a week, even longer than some flowers someone bought for my other flatmate online. You should have seen Moe make this bouquet on the spot when I came in and gave him my budget. The sheer talent in choosing the right flowers one at a time and arranging them in a work of art showed me how much pride and care he takes in his work. It's always a pleasure to have conversation with Moe too. The plants and flowers sold here are very reasonable and are perhaps far cheaper than some of the other places I've been to in the area. For the quality it comes with, the price is only sweeter. read more

Go somewhere else that respects their customers. This piece of crap owner yelled at a customer in front of another customer because she simply asked how much something was. His response? He freaking screamed at her with "your kind is cheap." He was basically profiling her based on her Asian heritage. Excuse me but have you looked at the population of the Bay Area? Get out of here. You cant say such stereotypes about Asians. If the owner has such biases just close up shop. Your input and opinions are unwanted and rude. read more

Great service reasonable prices, the only place open late on Sunday they got the job done, on time and as described. would recommend read more

I've never met Moe but I've sent my husband and kid for the past 2 years to pick up flowers for a VIP in my life and that person has loved both his big arrangements (2021, 2022). I'm amazed how his stars here are either 1 or 5 but so far, we like his work. Moe seems like a character. I think if you go in his shop, know what you're buying. My hubby always brings a vase, the $-amount we'd like to pay, and a photo on his cell phone as a sample. Good luck to you. read more

Amazing service and honest prices! I needed to make a very last minute order of 8 lei's for my boss farewell party the following morning. I had called at-least three other flower shops that quoted me a ridiculous amount per lei of about $40 per. I found Moe's Flower shop after searching for a local flower shop on yelp. I read a few reviews and found them to be satisfactory. After discussing prices I found his services to be reasonably priced and he was able to fulfill my very last minute order with no problems. The lei's were beautiful and perfectly packed to preserve their freshness! Thank you & I will definitely recommend this shop to anyone who is looking for quality service at a great price! read more

I was in the area for a tour of UC Berkeley and it just so happened we were getting boba at the shop next door. So while we were waiting for the others we were with, a friend and I walked into the shop. Moe was very polite to both my friend and I the entire time--and made a BEAUTIFUL bouquet off of a budget of $20. If I can, will definitely come back! read more

Moe's Flowers - My friend and I posing with the bouquet! - Florists Near Me - Berkeley, California

I came across Moe's Flowers while walking to UC Berkeley and the beautiful plants and flowers caught my eye. I stopped by and looked at all the plants outside. There were small and medium size that are perfect for any room. It was hard to choose which ones to get because I wanted one of each!! I settled with picking out 3, and I bought cute ceramic pots to put them in so when I get home, they're ready to for their new home. Moe was extremely nice and helpful while I browsed all the plants and had a hard time choosing. He was knowledgeable about each plant and helped me pick ceramic pots. I also got a single rose which is GORGEOUS!!! It's day 3 and it's still looking divine. I wish I had found this flower shop sooner. I would definitely come back and buy an arrangement here. I'll also be back to buy some more plants Thanks Moe for all of your help!!! read more

More has the most Beautiful assortment of flowers at a reasonable price. Don't get scammed getting flowers from cvs or other markets.

First and foremost, this man will yell at his patrons or even just folks who take an interest in his shop. I was trying to adjust an order because it was no longer needed for our event. Omg, he threw a fit over the phone because I was not the third party member he works with through my job, nevertheless, it is coming from my department's accounts so I do have a say what in how I want to pay or not pay for my order. He's literally the scrooge of Berkeley, do not buy flowers from him! Support vendors who are flexible and respectful! Never ever supporting this business. Like he is so mean and verbally abusive! read more

I've been going to Moe's for over 15years, he's the nicest person ever. He means well, and floral quality is his specialty. If you know what you want, your price range and you communicate that clearly to him, he will definitely give you the best bouquet or plant you've been looking for. All of these 1 star reviews have probably never really been to his shop before so don't be discouraged, Moe's flowers are top quality! read more

The owner of the plant shop was rude, disrespectful, and discriminatory. I entered the shop to ask how much a pothos was and he immediately yelled, "$45 but you can't afford that. You people always want $25 or $35 deals but these are good quality plants and the cheap plants will come next month ". I left the store and went to my wife who was waiting outside. I let her know how much the pothos cost and we were actually happy with the $45 price and were expecting a higher price... The man followed me and talked directly to my wife, saying, "I will sell the plant to you and I'll give you a discount". While this was happening, another group of people went inside the store, and he yelled at them saying, "You can't go in the shop and look around around. Go away no. There's obviously no one inside". Keep in mind we're an interracial couple and I am a Person of Color and my wife is white... I would not recommend this shop to anyone, especially People of Color. Not a safe space. Keep your peace. read more

I love Moe. He's my good friend after having gone to his shop for over 10 years. I acknowledge some of the negative reviews here are probably true, but bottom line, Moe is an honest man who treats his loyal customers like family. He once sent me a huge bouquet of flowers because he heard I was getting a new job, and I personally know other loyal customers who receive the same kind of generosity from him. Berkeley wouldn't be the same without him. His shop is a local landmark. One of the few that have survived the gentrification and commercialization. So please support! Here are some helpful tips for your visit: 1. Don't rush Moe if you want him to put a custom bouquet together. Give him about 5 minutes to work his magic. You won't regret it. 2. Don't keep changing your mind and ask a bunch of questions about a variety of products. This annoys him. 3. The best bang for your buck is to give him your budget for a bouquet and let him choose the flowers for you. You can give general preferences like which flower you want included or what colors, but it's like omakase at a sushi place. He will not cheat you. He considers every bouquet his "business card" so he's going to make it look good! read more

The owner Moe is the most awful business owner I have ever encountered in my life. I'm amazed how he pissed me and my boyfriend off in 30 seconds. We were on our anniversary and my boyfriend wanted to surprise me with some flowers. Moe's was next to campus so we went there. He was staring aggressively at me in silence when we came in. I asked him what is this plant and is it easy to take care of. Moe said "why don't you buy it first. I can't waste my time on you". I then was looking at other stuff outside of the store and Moe started rambling about a freshman who took photos of his plants because he's going to look up the plants online. Moe claims that the freshman was stealing his business and he suspected that kids like him cheated their way to Berkeley. My boyfriend and I got scared and walked away, but he won't stop telling like a mad man. I went there twice before this. First time I was shooed out the store because I picked up a plant to have a better look, the second time shooed out again for wearing a backpack indoors cause someone touched his plant by their backpack before and "ruined" his plants. What a great man. I hope he went out of business asap. read more

I worked around the corner of his place. It was a co-worker's birthday so, I walked over there to see if I can get her some plants or flowers, etc.. as I walk in, this old man asked me RUDELY, what do you need? Do you know what you want ? I replied - no , I am looking to see what I want to get. He replied by saying - if you don't have any money , why you bother coming in. My shop is not a public place. Leave if you don't want anything. Bruh- I almost caught a case today. But he already seems miserable and I don't need anyone to ruin my day so I just left. No wonder why this place has NO CUSTOMERS at all every time when I walk pass. I would give 0 star if there is an option. PLEASE save your time and go somewhere else. read more

Moe's Flowers - Florists Near Me - Berkeley, California

Was really curious to inspect this place after all the 1 star reviews. Went to the shop with my significant other and they seemed to hit it off quite well as they both spoke well over 30 minutes as Mo dished out a bunch of secret plant knowledge. Selection was a bit sparse and my plant unfortunately did not survive after I came back from traveling. Not bad but not that great either. Open to trying it out again and giving it one more shot. read more

The owner is CRABBY AF! Walked in to take a look around and asked a simple question about needing an extra band for a corsage and he went on a freakin rant saying "don't ask me those kinds of questions if you're not gonna bring me business! Students always come here asking for little things. They pay to go to this expensive school and ask to buy little things from me!" Like WTF CALM DOWN DUDE. You do realize your shop is across the street from campus right?! And if you're over here yelling at people complaining about how much your flower shop rent is then why are you turning away business from innocent passerby's?! No need to be so damn RUDE and that freakin ATTITUDE needs to go. Good customer service goes a long way and you won't find it here. Take your flower needs elsewhere people! read more

I really didnt want to leave this review but I feel I have to let people know because I was treated extremely rude by Moe. Moe has always been rude but I made sure to keep my interactions and transactions very short. I am a frequent customer, 4 out of my 8 plants were bought here and I even brought some of my friends to buy plants from his as well. I bought a hanging plant from him a month ago. My plant was shedding quite a few leaves and Moe said I wasnt taking care of it properly (lol) even though i followed instructions. Moe told me to bring a picture of my plant next time so that he could get a better idea of what my plant needs. I brought my plant in and he immediately starts to go off on me about being on his time and that I should call first because he had an order to fill at the moment and was running behind. He didnt allow me to explain that not only did he instruct me to come back with pictures...I also had no problem coming back another day if he was busy. The whole conversation consisted of him yelling and talking over me. He continually said he was busy and Told me to take my business somewhere else...oh and also that I should tell my friends to do the same. I am aware that he gets a lot of business from students attending Berkeley. I am both a graduate student an an employee of the university and I feel that no one should be treated like that regardless of where they are professionally. He is extremely rude and sexist and I dont believe that type of behavior should be rewarded with customers. This is not okay! I wont be coming back here or even walking in this direction. If you all have any other suggestions for flower shops in the area ( especially since I am new to having plants), please feel free to share!! read more

I've been going to Moe's for 10 years. He's got a big selection of flowers and it's affordable. You can just give him an amount, color combination or style and he'll put something together. He understands that it's a college town and so isn't looking to rip people off but he's still a business who needs to stay in business. Another thing ..his flowers are fresh. They stay alive and smell wonderful for days with water changes. The selection is quite large at Moe's and you'll find what you're looking for. Great place to get leis for graduations as well. Mom's bday + Unemployed + $15 = $25 bouquet from Moe with a wink He's moody at times which is a big downside to Moe and his business. And in the end he's a business man so if he senses you are too cheap or complaining, he'll let you know you can take your $5 elsewhere. But as long as I live in the SF or Bay Area, I'll be a customer. Parking kinda stinks in the area unless you get lucky with street. Otherwise, just park in the lot right upstairs. 4 stars b/c it's hard to overlook his moodiness and the stories other people have to tell. But in my book, he's a 10. read more

Moe is the sweetest!!! He is so knowleadgable and takes time to really understand your vision and find something that works with your budget. His flower selection is beautiful and so fresh!! It's always such a special treat to walk in and learn about how to maintain the flowers!!! read more

Moe may come off as rude initially but he really wants to give individual attention to each client. He wants people to respect his business and not goof around with the flowers if they don't want to buy. He clearly has premium quality flowers and the prices are pretty decent. read more

this is not the place to go if you're looking for catered and great customer service-- he gets to the point and gives you what you want, with great prices, and even wraps it nicely with a ribbon and paper. i can understand the other reviewers-- he's kinda grumpy sometimes and very curt but as someone who's usually coming in knowing what i want, i appreciate his efficiency and carefulness when he wraps my flowers! read more

Horrible service, no prices, owner is rude with no brain. The door stays open regardless of open status, feel free to shut it for him.

I went in looking with a group of 5 to make a bouquet for my girlfriend and as we were overseeing the flowers the owner rudely asked if I was just looking or looking to buy. I said I was looking and he told me that he was closing and asked me to leave since I wasn't going to buy anything and wasting his time. As one of my friends was looking at a plant while leaving the store he came out angry and shouting insults at him. He even came out the store. This is very unacceptable and very unprofessional of him. I do not recommend coming here. read more

Very sweet and kind. The flower arrangement he made me was soo beautiful! The flowers were very fresh and nice. He is very passionate and you should go buy from him read more

Flowers were nice but he has such an attitude. Felt like he was insulting me and the rest of the student population when I walked in. Complained about how he gets no in the Spring break/Thanksgiving break/Winter break and makes less than minimum wage. Students don't understand how much work he puts in. He said(paraphrased): you go to Berkeley you're going to be making lots money. How am I suppose to make money if you're only spending $15 dollars? You're wasting my time. Totally ruined my experience of picking up flowers for my girlfriend. Literally go anywhere else unless you are into a curmudgeon old man who insults you....not my taste. read more

The person that was in the shop was very rude. We went into the store to look with the intention to buy, yet he had rudely kicked us out saying that we weren't allowed to look. The flowers are beautiful but very rude and disgusting owner. read more

This guy is rude ! Went in and took at look at some plants yesterday & he came out not even a hi just a straight up "don't touch anything" excuse you sir but you are extremely disrespectful. Left right after that ill take my money elsewhere. read more

owner was rude and told me to leave when i was looking at the flowers, thinking i wasn't going to buy anything. he probably thought i was a college kid looking for trouble?? i am a working mid-20s dude. i would never go back to this place. AVOID AT ALL COSTS read more

I wish I could review this shop based on my experience actually purchasing something here. The plants and flowers look beautiful from the window. Unfortunately, upon trying to enter the store an older gentlemen who I assume to be Moe gave my daughter and I an annoyed look and told us not to come in because he was on the phone. Seems like a strange way to greet potential customers. We found somewhere else to buy flowers. read more

Was waiting patiently in the line and chatting with my boyfriend, as of course it'd be a line on a Valentine's Day. When the line moved and we started advanced into the store, the owner started yelling at us for no reason. We are still confused why he got so outrageous all of a sudden at us. Anyway, bad temper, rude owner, don't come here unless you wanna ruin your beautiful Valentine's Day or your cozy Sunday afternoon, read more

If I could give this place no stars, I would. Me and my family noticed a few succulents on a table and decided to check it out. There were only 5-6 on the table and on the verge of dying so my boyfriend asked the worker if there were any more and he said some smart ass remark in a rude way when he could have just said, "not at this time". If you don't like your job bro, don't work. read more

RUDE, ANGRY, & PRICE GOUGING MAN who answered my call was out of line! I asked a simple question and he went OFF on me! WTH?!! See previous yelp today- he was rude to another customer?! Asked if they sell leis and how much. He proceeds to rant- "well they range from $19-60 depends if you're really serious buying or not?" Then says "I'll give you true price when you decide?" Um- that's why I'm calling to see what you offer. I asked a simple question and if you can't give a simple answer- then you need to close your shop! NO ONE LIKES AN ANGRY person especially this was my first time calling. My advice is to you is to brush up on your POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE skills.... read more

Was nervous to get flowers from Moe's after reading the reviews but decided to give it a chance. I called ahead and asked to pick up a $10-20 bouquet within the next hour, and Moe kindly accommodated my request. The flowers were beautiful! read more

No price labels .. picked up a plant to inspect and got full-on yelled at by owner. If you look closely, there is a sign not to touch plants, but does not excuse the yelling. Never. Going. Back. read more

Incredibly, twenty minutes after a horrible review was left at Moe's, I find myself astonished at how rude and unbelievable Moe acts to potential customers. I went in with my girlfriend because she was looking for a houseplant, and Moe was quick to reprimand me for stepping too close a flower pot. Fine, whatever, let a man be a stickler about how close you can get to his fantastic plants. But I was baffled when he went on a three minute tangent about how rude it was for me to "compare my plants to his" under his "$2000 a month establishment" because I commented that I owned one of the plants he was selling. After his lesson in floral business administration, we stayed because I knew my girlfriend wanted a plant and I could ignore a senile old man's rants if I felt like it. However, when another man (white) walked in, Moe was quick to exclaim how little time he had to be "teaching us about every little plant in here like everyone else" and practically told us to fuck off. Needless to say, I won't be coming back here. read more

Moe is unhinged. The way he treats customers is extremely erratic, and he will only give you good customer service if he thinks you're going to place a large order. I went in the shop once and he was kind of nice to me because he wanted to hire me when I mentioned I used to work with flowers, but he gave me really weird vibes when he basically said he hates Berkeley students so I never followed up. I'm writing this review because today I was DRIVING BY his shop up Durant and he jaywalked across the street and screamed at me to back up so that a customer could park. As in he wanted me to back up in the street while I waited at a red light, on a public street, because I was in front of a parking spot he wanted. Somehow when literally just driving by his store he managed to be verbally abusive. Normally I would feel bad for an old man running a struggling flower business but this is not just cranky old man behavior, Moe is actually evil. Please don't listen to the 5 star reviews. read more

THIS GUY IS SO RUDE. My friend and I walked in with intent to buy flowers with two bubble teas in hand, he immediately snapped at us because he assumed that we were preoccupied with our teas and didn't appear to be the kind who appreciate flowers. He then went on a tangent that if people want to come into his shop, they need to come in with focus and a full heart. He then proceeded to imitate the way I was chewing, and said that although I appear to be educated, there's others who imitate my behavior and he'd prefer not to have those customers at all. Needless to say, we didn't purchase any flowers. He's pathetic. read more

Asked if the store had anymore succulents and responded with "you know it's the end of the year my friend." Thank you sir, I understand, but a simple "no we're out." Would suffice. read more

Moe is the best. When my friend and I were coming in to get some flowers for a friend, he gave us extra flowers than the amount of money we spent. Great service and very kind. Would come again. read more

I was almost scared to check out Moe's shop after reading the reviews here. I decided to wear my big girl pants and go anyway cause I really wanted to grab some blue roses. Instead, I found the most awesome guy who really knows his flowers. I am wondering if he is misunderstood because of the way he talks? He was definitely powerful with his words but shouldn't be confused with rudeness. He was extremely friendly and helpful and got me out of there in a few minutes with the prettiest blue roses. Don't veer away cause of some of the reviews you see here. Moe is a really easy guy to work with and he will keep your budget in mind. read more
