Chicago Flower Delivery: The Best Local Florists

City Scents Floral & Home

For a Streeterville errand that combines flowers with a gift, this is the shop I'd consider first. Its East Ohio Street store sells arrangements and home goods, plus plants, candles, balloons and a fresh flower subscription, and the homepage highlights customer favorites like Sunflower Fields at $115. Most arrangements run $40 to $325, with a typical spend around $125 in September 2026. Same-day delivery is offered to Chicago and surrounding areas, though no cut-off time is published, and the shop is open Monday through Saturday. Because much of the catalogue is shared template design, the piece that arrives is the shop's own interpretation rather than an exact copy of the photo, which is worth knowing before you order. If you're ordering for someone at Northwestern or in the Loop hotels, the Ohio Street location is convenient.

RF Flowers

Working from a single Portage Park studio, RF Flowers is the shop I'd call for a modern arrangement that still feels personal. Partners Naz and Sam run it as a small family team, and every piece is made in-house. The catalogue spans bouquets, flowers-in-a-box, wedding and funeral work, plus vases, sweets and plush toys, all in what the shop calls a signature modern style. Most listed arrangements run from $45 to $675, with a typical spend around $100 in September 2026. The Signature Lily Bouquet and the Dopamine Bouquet, at $180 and $100, are good entry points, and Pink Devotion sits at $120. Delivery reaches Chicago and suburbs within about 25 miles of the studio. No delivery fee or cut-off is published, so it is worth confirming timing when you order.

A Pretty Flower by A&A Floral Arts

Custom work and standing orders are where A Pretty Flower by A&A Floral Arts makes the easiest case. Juli Tkalec runs the studio, learned floral design from her mother Dragica, and handles the photography herself, which shows in a site built around made-to-order pieces rather than a fixed look. It takes online and phone orders, runs flower subscriptions, and covers weddings and events as well as everyday arrangements. Listed prices start at $60 and climb to $700 for larger event work, with a median of $130; named designs include Stacie at $75 and the pet-friendly Catie at $120. Same-day delivery is advertised, but the site does not publish a fixed cut-off and calculates fees at checkout, so call or order early if the date matters. As with other BloomNation-partnered florists, many designs are shared catalogue templates, with the delivered arrangement the shop’s own interpretation.

Its same-day terms: offered; no cut-off published.

Donna's Garden Florist

Operating since 1989 and billing itself as delivering smiles daily, Donna's Garden covers Chicago and its suburbs with occasion work from birthdays and sympathy to weddings and quinceañeras, sold through a BloomNation-hosted catalogue. The shop publishes an order-by-2pm cutoff for same-day delivery, which is useful when you need flowers that afternoon, and delivery fees are calculated by distance at checkout. Most listed arrangements run $79.99 to $495, with a typical spend around $139.97 in September 2026. Its showiest signature, "Elegance and Grace Dozen Roses," sits at the top of the list at $349.99. Like other BloomNation florists, many listed designs are shared catalogue pieces, so expect the shop's own interpretation of the photo. For a no-fuss order to a suburban address, this is one of the more practical choices on the page. One oddity: the published Sunday hours show a 15-minute window, so call before ordering for a Sunday.

Its same-day terms: by 2pm.

Athena Flowers

A same-day cut-off of 2 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and 11 a.m. Sunday, makes Athena Flowers the practical option for the Northwest Side. It has been a woman-owned, Latina-owned neighborhood florist since 2007 and is firm that its arrangements are designed and hand-delivered by its own team, not a national reseller. Listed bouquets run $55.95 to $130.95, with most around $65.95, so this is one of the more affordable stops on the page; the Florist’s Choice Daily Deal starts at $59.95 and Devoted to You red roses at $105.95. Delivery is free within the 60634 zip code, with fees set by address outside it, and the shop covers Portage Park, Jefferson Park and nearby suburbs. Because it sits on the Lovingly platform, many product names are shared templates; the finished arrangement is the shop’s own interpretation of that design.

Its same-day terms: by 2pm Monday to Saturday, 11am Sunday.

Its delivery windows, from its site on October 27, 2026: “Normal delivery times are 9am-5pm daily for orders going to a business, 6pm for orders to a residence, hotel, or hospital, and 2pm for orders going to a high school. … We are unable to guarantee delivery at a specific time, but we are normally able to deliver within four hours on orders.”

Anna Held Floral Studio

Study arrangements in one color are the signature here, with peonies, ranunculus, protea, orchids and lilies named among the specialty stems. Anna Held Floral Studio describes its team as trained artists, and Beth Tarrant, a graduate of the Art Institute, brings more than 30 years in the floral industry. The shop takes everyday orders and custom work, plus weddings and events, on a BloomNation-hosted site. Listed arrangements run $65 to $300, with most around $95; the Study in Orange, Study in Purple and Study in Pink pieces are $75 each, and a dozen red roses is $100. Same-day delivery is advertised without a published cut-off, so order early. The studio is closed Sunday and Monday. Note that its own domain appears to be down, so the catalogue you browse is the shared BloomNation template, with the final arrangement interpreted by the shop.

Its same-day terms: offered; no cut-off published.

Tea Rose Flower Shop

When I want a designer's eye without a wedding quote, Tea Rose is the North Side address I think of first. Tina Skorey has run it for more than fifteen years, and her style is what she calls a modern classic twist. In September 2026, its 29 listed arrangements run from $72 to $325, with the middle around $115. Signature BloomNation pieces include In My Garden at $165 and Bright & Lively at $96.95. Same-day delivery goes out for orders placed before noon, and the shop covers the North Side and Northwest suburbs including Lincolnwood, Evanston and Skokie, with fees that vary by distance and show at checkout. Weddings, events and custom work are a major part of the business. The one note: many designs are BloomNation catalogue pieces shared with other florists, so the delivered arrangement is this shop's own interpretation.

Its same-day terms: before noon.
