Hidden gem with delicious coffee that comes with its own little chocolate! Only a couple gluten free options but this chocolate peanut butter cup (see photo) was divine. You can choose to sit in the decor shop or plant shop with a glass roof for some sunlight and some of the freshest air you'll breathe surrounded by all the plants for sale. Perfect for a unique spot for a first date or meet up with old friends. read more

Zocalo is a very unique shop in Little Italy. It sells all kinds of goodies for your home and garden, including hard to find, one of a kind, and imported bowls, vases, and items you may never even have though of before you visit the store. Prices range from inexpensive to thousands of dollars for some of the more intricate ceramic and glass pieces. Zocalo also always has a wonderful selection of potted plants and fresh flowers.

One of my favourite downtown cafes. Sitting inside a beautiful greenhouse/ gift shop with a latte and a treat- what's not to love? My butter tart was great. Front and back of store seating, great looking goodies and beverages. Couldn't ask for a better atmosphere to enjoy some quiet time bliss! read more

Zocalo - Loveliest patio setting anywhere ! - Florists Near Me - Edmonton, Alberta

Every time I come here I feel like I have been transported to summer time with all of the beautiful plants in the greenhouse as well as the colourful, beautiful knick knacks found inside the cafe/store. Zocalo is a cafe/greenhouse/house-ware store. The store and cafe are in one area. Here you can purchase your coffee and a light snack and peruse the wonderful, art, flowers and house-ware items. The menu is simple but good. All typical cafe drinks are provided and an array of sandwiches and muffins to choose from. You will want to get here early if you intend on eating as the selection dwindles as the day goes on. If you so choose, you can sit in the front area of the store at beautiful tile tables or make your way into the greenhouse where you can sit at the large community table and soak in the sun and smell the flowers. The latter is my preference. Who doesn't want to smell flowers while they are drinking their coffee? - especially in the Winter. The greenhouse isn't large but it does offer a selection of herbs, garden vegetables, flowers and and in the back it has larger plants and trees. It also provides decorative planting pots, fountains and other items for the garden. I find the cost of plants here a little more on the higher end but in line with other greenhouses in the city. I strongly recommend coming here and checking this gem of place out. It's a great place to unwind and get lost in Summer. You will not be disappointed! read more

I never leave poor reviews, but I purchased $100 worth of plants for my large indoor garden. It turns out they were covered in aphids. not only did I have to throw the plants i purchased out, but they infected my existing farm and infested my apartment. I am currently culling all greenery from my home. All told this place cost me hundreds of dollars and I'm depressed because all my plant babies died. read more

Amazing appeals to all your senses. Beautiful flowers Beautiful decor Beautiful scarves And great food. Wow. Come often read more

Ok. I know I'm notorious for giving 5 star reviews, but honestly I love this place. This is my go to spot in the winter to enjoy the bright light and warmth of their greenhouse. Sit down, enjoy a coffee, and surround yourself with sun and scent. Great place to read a book year round. read more

Love this place! Just walking around the store made me happy. The store isn't that inexpensive, but I would definitely recommend a visit. The coffee had me buzzing for hours, but the green tea was really good. Beautiful floral hints of Jasmine on organic green tea. Want to go back to get a beautiful painted flower pot, great place for plant lovers. read more

Beautiful cute little cafe inside a green house!! We love it here. Certainly a hidden Edmonton gem as you would think it just sells flowers, succulents and the like. But inside there is a fully run cafe with great coffee, sandwiches, soups and assorted goodies. There are even 2 rooms for eating - the front of the store and in the green house there is a long table. Certainly helps to beat the winter blues! read more

This funky flower shop meets home decor shot meets cappuccino cafe is a fabulous little place located at the beginning our our (very little) little Italy. Upon first walking through the doors of this beautiful shop, your nose is greeted with a wonderful aroma of flowers of all different varieties. The ones that really stood out for me were the orchids, but maybe that is because I love orchids. They really do have wonderful ones here. They have them in all different colors for about $30 a "set." The other thing you are greeted with when you first walk in is the smell of fresh coffee. It may seem like an odd combination but it is deliriously wonderful. There is certainly something special about the smell of Italian coffee. After your nose gets used to the wonderful smells wafting around this store, your eyes are enlightened by all the different colors and cool vases in the room. This place has some of the most unique vases I have ever seen in Edmonton. They also don't JUST carry vases. They also have tablecloths, napkins, wine racks, coffee mugs, pots, glasses, and tiny art pieces. Zocalo is filled with beautiful gifts for yourself and others. I came here in the winter and saw that they also have a little patio outside, so I will definitely be checking it out come patio weather! Prices are a little higher for some things, but I think the quality is also well matched so it is worth the extra penny. read more

I wasn't sure if I'd be able to find something to eat that was gluten free, but I lucked out on the soup of the day, tomato, and had a very fresh garden salad as well. My companion had coffee and a muffin and pronounced them of good quality. read more

It's a coffee shop that sells plants. They have paninis and sandwiches and deserts. Bright and airy. Quiet. Good place to get away from the winter blues. They sell floral arrangements and knick knacks. There at two rooms you can sit down at. Pleasant spot. read more

Hidden gem!!! I can't believe i've never discovered this place. It's a very refreshing little shop for kitchenware and home decors, with a little coffee shop in the corner and a greenhouse garden sit and catch up with your friends. I even wrote a blog for Zocalo too: https://nursinglattes.wordpress.com/2017/01/22/coffee-shop-review-zocalo/ read more

I STILL MUST. HAVE. THEIR DECAF EXPRESSO. And it's 2018! I love that the place is always changing display items. Must. Have. Decaf. Expresso. And did I tell you about the chocolate almond torte? Share with someone special. Chocolate almond feel good high. The truffles, oh they call me but I haven't yet answered. I'm only pretending to play hard to get, as I'm still buying flowers some of their flowers for my garden vases. I've not been disappointed by their plants in the past, so I'm forgoing these sweets until I've bought all my garden treats. More costly than some but the plants are healthy. Funky little things abound here and if I had the budget I'd splurge more, but they do have some things I can always afford. Horizontal bud vases, colourful pots and tiles, garden knick knacks. Great for little hostess gifts. A lovely and unusual variety of fresh flowers. Very clever designer porcelain, fabric and other pieces too. Check out the floral display now = soccer ball has 200 carnations and the sneakers are brilliant. Special ambience inside greenhouse with country table or in the store at bistro set to just chill and enjoy your coffee. read more

What a happy destination in Edmonton! On a dreary winter day, it is such a great treat to surround yourself with beautiful plants and flowers, home decor and a cute little bakery/coffee shop. Bakery - THE BEST hot chocolate I've had in my life. Seriously. Great selection of coffees and other cold drinks. And treat yourself to truffles (espresso one is fantastic), cakes and more. Flowers - Fresh, beautiful, great selection. Plants - So many choices including framed living walls (I would love one in either white or orange if you're buying!), potted plants and more, in a range of pricing. Great shop - if you're looking for the most unique gifts at all price points, check it out! This past weekend we browsed through the shop and grabbed coffee to sit in the bistro chairs by the window, also conveniently located by the flower cooler, and chill with a book. It was a great place to be and we look forward to visiting again! read more

Who knew you could enjoy coffee and treats in a green house in Little Italy?!?! My friend invited me here for a coffee date on a beautiful Sunday morning. The green house has a great selection of herbs, plants and perennials. Attached next door is their cafe and gift shop with trinkets, kitchen gadgets and many gift ideas. I love the variety of beautiful floral arrangements placed in the store for purchase. There were lots of traffic in this cute local gem. read more

Zocalo - Florists Near Me - Edmonton, Alberta

Zocalo has great coffee, a greenhouse and supports local artists works. I will be back many more times and I look forward to each visit! I usually only go for an americano and sit in the greenhouse at the long table and enjoy the sun while writing in my notebook or reading a book. I love that they provide a dark chocolate square with each coffee/tea as it hits the spot once you're done. I've only ever had a bowl of soup here so I'm not really gonna rate the food but everything looks decently priced and made fresh regularly. read more

Now that I'm the duchess of Zocalo, I guess I should write another review? (Disclaimer: I live right around the corner now, so I'm here all the time.) There are so many pretty things here, and I find myself feeling happier just by wandering around inside. It's my go-to place for fresh flowers (a weekly indulgence), which are always gorgeous and reasonably priced for the season (and never anything nasty, wilted, or just plain ugly). I love the vases, dishes, kitchen toys, potted plants, and everything else, just as I always have. My landlady calls it the $999 Knickknack Store, but it's really not that dramatic (which isn't to say I could afford just anything in there, because I certainly can't). But I always manage to find something I want in there, and often gifts for friends as well. It's rapidly becoming my favourite coffee shop, too. I love sucking down an Americano in the humid greenhouse every other morning. I've also discovered that they carry Dry soda, which is delicious and not too sweet (try the cucumber flavour!). It's been the perfect thing several afternoons in a row now. read more

Zocalo is a lovely little shop located in Little Italy. Offering gifts, gardening tools and supplies, and beautiful fresh flowers, the shop also serves dessert and coffee. This is best enjoyed in the humid and sunny greenhouse portion of the building. You can definitely escape the bitter cold of an Alberta winter in here. The price point is what you'd expect from a moderate/high-end floral shop. Staff are helpful, and the vibe is cozy, cute and relaxing. Throw in a tour of the Italian Centre, and a yoga class at Lotus Soul, and you have the makings of a perfect weekend afternoon. read more

I only shop here for my flowers, and also try and buy gifts here as well. I can't say enough great things about this place. The flowers are fresh and great prices. When they have sales, they're great too. Staff is always helpful when I need something. They have some treats and a coffee bar, delicious offerings! read more

Very creative and romatic arrangement for our anniversary. My wife loved the red and purple roses. Being rated #3, you are obviously trying hard to be #1, whtch you have already attained that status. Your cafe reviews are great, we will be visiting soon. Thank you very much Roy Bond0 read more

This is a really cool store I first discovered when leaving Lotus Soul Gym, located next door. I was told about the beautiful things they have so I had to take a peek. Your eyes are serenaded with an orchestra of colour as you step into the shop. There's a rich selection of hand-painted pots and vases, some blown-glass ones that are unique, and many other items including dish wear, kitchen decor, table clothes and more. They have a small cafe selling muffins and tea, and it seems that some people conduct daytime small business meetings here. A great place to pop in if you're in the area, grab a coffee have a chat or close a deal. There's also a gorgeous small garden centre attached, with more beautiful pots and hanging plants, or just a tranquil walk through to decompress during a hectic day. read more

Zocalo - Zocalo-a-go-go. - Florists Near Me - Edmonton, Alberta

Zocalo which is located in Edmonton's Italian district sells beautiful flowers and everything one may need to display these flowers proudly. This store is worth checking out if you are looking for a bouquet for a special occasion or if there is a woman in your life who enjoys gardening. Zocalo carries unique vases, pots, decorative objects, and of course live plants and flowers. There are also occasional bowls, masks, table linens and glassware. Some of the items which are imported and look particularly unique, cost a lot of money. How would you like a hand blown vase for $1000? My mom enjoys gardening, so I will be coming back to Zocalo looking for unique plants, but I wouldn't shop here for myself. read more

Zocalo literally saved my wedding day. After my florist completely butchered my bouquet and gave me the ugliest succulent I have ever seen in my life, I called Zocalo, and asked if they had succulents and they said yes. I sent my bridesmaids over, and for only $8 they got the perfect and most beautiful succulent for my bridal bouquet. Zocalo you saved my wedding thank you! read more

I could not be less impressed. The orchid I ordered for my daughter-in-law was tired, thin, stuffed into a pot, with a tacky purple and pink bow slapped into the middle. When I pay $80.00 plus dollars for a gift, I expect to get my money's worth. read more

We've been here twice, both on very busy days (during the Viva Italia Festival and again during the Winter in Little Italy event). Both times, the staff were warm, friendly, and inviting. They treated us like valued and treasured customers even though they didn't know us. The shop has an eclectic mix of gifts and plants, as well as a delicious coffee bar. read more

a must see in little Italy, lots of interesting decorations, flowers, food and wine accessories etc. just about everything in the store is on the expensive side but worth checking out just the same. the espresso milk shakes they served in the summer months kept me coming back, hopefully they will start serving these again soon read more

I absolutely love this place! It's exactly the kinds of business I would open myself. Their coffee is good, amazing hot chocolate, yummy snacks.... and plants! They have a wonderful selection of plants, including some that I had been searching for to add to my collection. read more

I ordered an arrangement for my daughters graduation. The arrangement was not like the picture indicated. I telephoned and they said they didn't have the flowers that were in the photo so they chose something else. I felt that it wasn't near as nice as I had expected. They offered options to satisfy me and didn't just blow me off. Super happy with the customer service. I will use them again. I just wish they had gave me the option of choosing another arrangement that they had in stock, as this was a very special occasion. read more

The coffees are amazing and the staff are courteous and helpful. Zocalo always has a huge variety of unique items imported from around the world. In addition to a stunning array of cut flowers and floral arrangements, they have a large selection of plants, flowers, trees, etc. and provide free advice on how to properly care for them. read more
