Andrew’s TakeClose
Scotts Flowers runs like a Midtown workhorse that has been at it long enough to know the city's rhythms. The Garment District shop sells seasonal and best-selling bouquets, Bloom Boxes, a gifts line with candles and chocolates, and recurring brand and lobby arrangements for offices. Google reviewers keep coming back to the orchids, the flower quality and the handwritten notes. Most listed arrangements run $50 to $850, with a median around $220; The Libra at $145 and Modern Roses in red at $125 are signature pieces. Same-day delivery in Manhattan requires an order by 2 PM EST, and by 10 AM EST for Upper Manhattan and the outer boroughs. There is an $85 delivery minimum, and wedding work has been paused since the pandemic. When I reviewed Scotts in September 2025, I noted consistent quality and customer service that keeps clients returning. Time Out's 2025 roundup credits a run since 1982, though Secret NYC's 2024 list says 1947.

Custom bouquets and full-scale event design
Typical price$175+ delivery
Same-day · no set cut-off
Delivers daily
Andrew’s TakeClose
Mahir's spot on West 28th Street in the Flower District means you get a shop that sources like an insider. It offers custom bouquets and vase arrangements alongside plants and succulents, with an event practice covering weddings, corporate work, restaurants, hotels, holiday decor and retail window displays. Same-day delivery runs seven days a week across all five boroughs, with in-store pickup as an alternative. Most listed arrangements run $15 to $4,500, around $175 at the median; signature pieces include Lemon Luxe at $175 and Midnight Tropics at $300. Google reviewers keep coming back to the custom bouquet design and the helpful staff. Thursd's 2026 guide calls it a stop for seeing New York's floral engine up close. The shop was established in 2012 as a reinvention of Garden District, a florist with more than 40 years behind it. One gap: no delivery fee or minimum is published, so the fee appears only at checkout.

Local shopUpper West Side
Architectural bouquets, orchid collections
Typical price$215+ delivery
Same-day · by 2pm
Morning or afternoon, daily
Andrew’s TakeClose
For architectural bouquets and orchids on the Upper West Side, Alaric Flower Design works at the higher end of the market. Most arrangements run $85 to $650, with a median around $215, and signatures include the White Spray at $650 and Orchids Jewel at $385. Google reviewers mention the orchids, the elegant arrangements and the wedding work. The studio counts Tiffany & Co., DKNY, L'Oréal and Wells Fargo among its corporate clients, which tells you the level of finish to expect. Same-day delivery across Manhattan and parts of Brooklyn is available when you order before 2pm, covering the Upper West and East Sides, Midtown, SoHo, Brooklyn Heights and DUMBO. It also offers subscriptions, gift boxes with champagne and artisan chocolates, and flower-arranging classes from its 54 West 70th Street studio. For a statement piece or a corporate account, this is where I would start.
Its same-day terms: by 2pm.

Flower boxes and modern bouquets
Typical price$140+ delivery
Same-day · no set cut-off
Pick a window at checkout
Andrew’s TakeClose
A boutique that splits its attention between the Upper West Side and Brooklyn, A&M Floral Place leans modern and composed. Most arrangements run $80 to $320, with a median around $140; signatures include the Box Secret Garden at $235 and Chelsea Morning at $175. Google reviewers mention the flower boxes, the bouquet quality, and designs that feel distinct rather than off-the-shelf. The shop also runs workshops, weddings and a recurring-occasion subscription called the Never Forget Club. Delivery covers Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens and Staten Island with a $50 minimum, and the fee varies by distance and window, shown at checkout. Note that the same-day cut-off is not published as a time, so order earlier than you think you need to. For a flower box or a standing gift, it is a polished choice.
Its same-day terms: offered; no cut-off published.

Sophisticated bouquets and wedding flowers
Typical price$145+ delivery
Same-day · no set cut-off
Andrew’s TakeClose
If you want a wedding florist with an easy online catalogue, this Midtown boutique is a sensible place to start. It opened online in 2018 and added its 712 Second Avenue storefront in 2021, and its own copy promises sophisticated palettes and organic, emotion-led arrangements. Google reviewers spend the most time on wedding flowers and boutonnières. Most arrangements run $109 to $309, with a median of $145 in September 2026. Named pieces include the $309 Rainbow and the $235 Blessed. Same-day delivery covers Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens and surrounding areas, though no specific cut-off is published and fees are set at checkout. One plain note: many of its listed designs are catalogue designs shared with other florists, so the delivered piece is the shop's own interpretation.

Hospital delivery specialist, hand-tied bouquets
Typical price$98.75+ delivery
Same-day · by 6pm
Delivers daily
Andrew’s TakeClose
For hospital flowers on the Upper East Side, Black Petals is the shop I'd call. It names the East Side hospitals it serves, from Memorial Sloan Kettering to Lenox Hill, and its hand-arranged, modern, hand-tied bouquets go out same-day across Manhattan and into Brooklyn, Queens and the Bronx, with a 6 PM cut-off and free delivery over $150 (the fee below that isn't published). Most listed arrangements run about $99, with the Signature Hydrangea at $95 anchoring the everyday end and the Premium 100 Stem Rose at $501.23 the splurge. Orchid plants, truffles, balloons and custom designs round out the offer, and Google reviewers keep coming back to the lilies, roses and sympathy pieces. Do check you're ordering from its own site, since a similarly named shop operates elsewhere online.
Its same-day terms: by 6pm.

Compact, elegant arrangements since 1962
Typical price$118.45+ delivery
Same-day · by 2pm weekdays, noon Saturday
Daily: homes by 6pm, offices by 5pm
Andrew’s TakeClose
A real local shop since 1962, Matles is the one to keep in the contacts when you want a compact, elegant arrangement delivered free in Manhattan. Its own words emphasize seasonal palettes and freshness, and Google reviewers repeatedly mention tulips, roses and the shop's trustworthiness. Listed prices in September 2026 run $95.95 to $155.95, with a Florist's Choice Daily Deal from $96.95 and the Classic Love Bouquet at $139.95. Same-day delivery needs an order by 2 p.m. on weekdays or noon on Saturday. Manhattan delivery is free, while Queens, Brooklyn, the Bronx and nearby areas require a phone call for a fee quote. The shop may substitute stems or vases for freshness, at same or greater value. One plain note: many of its listed designs are catalogue designs shared with other florists, so the delivered piece is the shop's own interpretation.
Its same-day terms: by 2pm weekdays, noon Saturday.
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.”

Andrew’s TakeClose
Since 1977, Chelsea Florist has worked Eighth Avenue as an independent, hand-crafted shop, and it says it delivers its own work rather than routing orders through wire services. For a last-minute rose order, this is the one I'd call. The style is modern and artistic, and Google reviewers keep mentioning the roses, the vases and how well the shop handles rush orders. Most arrangements run about $140, from the Perfect Wrapped Long-Stemmed Red Roses at $85 up to the Classic Love Bouquet at $200, with the Radiant Rainbow at $99.95 as the middle pick. Same-day delivery runs to 3 PM weekdays and 2 PM Sundays across New York, Brooklyn, Astoria and Long Island City, and Thursd included it in its 2026 roundup of New York flower shops. Several of its listed designs are catalogue pieces shared with other florists, so the delivered bouquet is the shop's own interpretation.

Andrew’s TakeClose
For last-minute same-day delivery, Ruscus is the shop I'd call. Its same-day cutoff is 4 p.m., and it delivers across Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens from a 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily operation. The offer spans classic and luxury roses, seasonal tulips, peonies and dahlias, premium exotic WOW bouquets, flower baskets and custom work. Prices run from $60 for a sunflower and chamomile bunch to $900 for 50 pink peonies, with a median of $150 in September 2026. The $110 24 Roses is the reference point for a classic dozen. Google reviewers keep coming back to the custom bouquets, the roses and the last-minute reliability, and the shop backs its work with a three-day freshness guarantee or a replacement. A free vase comes on orders over $100. No delivery fee is published, so the final total will show at checkout.

Market-fresh bouquets, last-minute orders

Andrew’s TakeClose
Last-minute Manhattan orders are this Flower District counter's comfort zone. Bill has run the shop for 42 years out of the wholesale market on West 28th Street, and Google reviewers keep coming back to the roses, the custom bouquets and the speed when time is short. Most arrangements listed on the shop's own site in September 2026 run $80 to $250, with a median around $110 across 35 named pieces. The Pleasure of Pink, at $100, and The Star Gazer, at $150, are two to know by name. Same-day runs until 5pm. It covers Manhattan and nearby ZIP codes. One quirk: the name says Essex, the address says 28th Street, so double-check you are reading the right shop before ordering. Many listed designs are catalogue pages shared with other florists, so the delivered piece is the shop's own interpretation.

Typical price$79.99+ delivery
Same-day · no set cut-off
Andrew’s TakeClose
For a broad range of occasion work in East Harlem, 116 Flowers covers everyday bouquets, sympathy, weddings and fruit baskets. Most arrangements run from about $45 to around $150, with a median around $80; the Garden of Grandeur for Fall is $124.99 and the Designer's Choice Arrangement is $104.99. Google reviewers mention roses and blue roses in particular. The shop keeps daily hours from 10am to 7pm and advertises same-day delivery across New York City, though it publishes no cut-off time. A practical point: much of the catalogue appears to be wire-network designs shared with other florists, so the delivered piece is the shop's own interpretation of the listing photo. For a dependable Manhattan same-day order to a hospital or funeral home, it is a sensible shortlist pick.
Its same-day terms: offered; no cut-off published.

Cut-offs as each shop and service publishes them, in New York time, read between September 5 and September 26, 2026. A time published without days counts on weekdays only. Shops not listed publish no same-day terms. No national service has a cart at a NYC ZIP yet.

Straight Answers

These answers draw on Google reviews read on September 29, 2026, each shop's own prices, cut-offs, and terms from September and October 2026, our hands-on tests of national delivery services, our Petal Score, and our judgment on when a local shop is the better call.

Prices and fees as of the dates on the board; the board is true at ZIP 10001.

Which New York City flower shops have the best reviews?

Five shops lead on Google review volume: Moravian Florist in Staten Island at 4.9 from 3,004 reviews, Scotts Flowers NYC in Manhattan and Marine Florists in Brooklyn at 4.9 from 1,381 each, Mahir Floral & Event Designs in Manhattan at 4.9 from 1,083, and Shannon Florist & Nursery in Brooklyn at 4.9 from 715. Scotts Flowers NYC is the only one of those five with three recent press mentions, from Time Out New York, Thursd and Secret NYC. Fox Fodder Flowers and Flower Girl each carry two.

Those figures are Google's and the press lists are the publishers'. The Petal Score is our own assessment, built from those reviews for what customers say, delivery reliability and what happens when things go wrong, plus our own checks. On that measure no New York shop is Exceptional, but fifteen are Excellent: Marine Florists at 8.7, Scotts Flowers NYC and FleurDeVera at 8.5, and Mahir Floral & Event Designs at 8.4. Moravian Florist is Excellent at 7.8 on its customer record (851 reviews in two years, 9 delivery complaints). The highest Good score is 7.9, which eleven shops share.

Is it better to order from a local florist or online in New York City?

Most of the time, a local shop is the stronger call in New York. You get a florist in a specific borough, you can see the shop's own arrangements, and 62 shops publish enough arrangements for a typical price to be shown.

If you need flowers after the local cut-offs, or you are sending somewhere your chosen shop does not reach, a national service becomes the backstop. Floom and ProFlowers deliver same-day to all five boroughs, which is why they hold the two national cards on the main view.

Which New York City florists deliver same-day?

41 of the 66 shops offer same-day delivery, and 21 of those publish a cut-off. The latest times on the page are St Albans Florist in Queens and Deja Vu Flowers in Brooklyn, both by 8pm. Black Petals Flowers and Plantas y Flores Fordham cut at 6pm. Scotts Flowers NYC takes Manhattan orders by 2pm, but outer-borough orders need to be in by 10am.

After the shops close for the day, Floom and ProFlowers cover all five boroughs, and Ode à la Rose reaches Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens by 5pm for delivery by 9pm.

How much does a bouquet cost from a New York City florist?

Across the 62 shops that list enough arrangements to count, a typical bouquet runs from $40 at Pascual Fresh Flowers to $285 at Julia Testa. Half the shops sit between about $80 and $150, and the middle shop is at about $111. Twelve have a typical price of $75 or less. The numbers are medians of each shop's own listed prices, before delivery, read in September and October 2026, so a delivery fee is extra.

On the shelves, the Under $75 picks are A&M Floral Place's Coral Dream Bouquet at $55, ABC Trade Flowers' Always in My Soul Hand Tied European Garden at $65, and Marine Florists' Pink Rose Fancy Wrap at $69.99. On the Luxury shelf, Marine Florists' Peony Blooms is $199 and Scotts Flowers NYC's New York Crush is $215.

Where should I order sympathy flowers in New York City?

34 of the 66 shops sell their own sympathy bouquets, and the Sympathy view shows arrangements from the shops' own menus. Pick the borough first, check the cut-off, then read the card for the shop's delivery area.

If the time is tight, Floom and ProFlowers can still deliver same-day, but a named shop's own bouquet is the safer way to know whose work will arrive.

How We Built This Page

Read How We Built This Page

What This Page Is For
Petal Republic city florist indexes are designed to help you find the best local florist or hand-tested national flower delivery service for every occasion.
How We Found and Scored Shops
For New York, we've systematically researched customer reviews of local florists across popular platforms such as Google Maps and Yelp. A person checks every florist against seven rules; failing any means no listing and no Petal Score. Reviews are weighted by age: 20 or more earn a score, 10 to 19.9 earn a band only, and under 10 requires a named press pick or The Knot Best of Weddings win. No minimum star rating. We also factor in accredited awards and press mentions by trusted journalistic outlets. This page covers storefronts in Manhattan, Queens, the Bronx and Staten Island. Each listed shop now carries a Petal Score built from its Google reviews over the last 24 months and our own checks of its site, press and awards.
Checked by Hand
Shops with near-perfect scores or thin independent signals got a hand check against other review sites, business records and public footprint. Five were held back: two records could not be confirmed, one appears closed, one sells to the trade only, and one has no delivery. After our Petal Score checks, thirteen more of the 79 are off the page: two did not meet our listing rules, nine are not shown yet while we finish checking their reviews, one has too few recent reviews to score, and one is off because its website no longer works.
What the Cards Rely On
First-hand Petal Republic coverage exists for eight of the 66 shops: Scotts Flowers NYC, Fox Fodder Flowers, PlantShed, Sahola Flowers and Flower Girl in Manhattan, Julia Testa, Rosehip Social and Stems Brooklyn in Brooklyn. The national services are scored from our testers' own orders.
How We Test National Services
Every national service with a Petal Tested score was ordered like any customer: we paid full price under the tester's name and address, and nothing on the order or card mentioned Petal Republic. We note the delivery window and photograph the box, card, flowers in daylight, stems, and any damage, then one photo on days 1, 3, 5 and 7. The score covers arrival, condition, stem count, varieties and colors, substitutions, packaging, the card, and longevity, with an overall 1 to 5. 4.6+ is Top marks, 4.0 to 4.5 Recommended, 3.0 to 3.9 Mixed, below 3.0 Not recommended.
Read our review guidelines
Occasion Picks
Each occasion opens with up to eight bouquets from New York shops and up to four from national services. We work down the Petal Score and take one bouquet from each shop that sells for the occasion on its own site, only bouquets the shop delivers itself and never below its delivery minimum. If fewer than eight shops qualify, the shelf shows fewer; we don't fill the gaps with national bouquets. The national picks come from the services our team has tested hands-on, one each, highest Petal Tested score first. Luxury, Under $75 and Same-Day work the same way, with bouquets of $130 or more, $75 or less, or from shops that publish same-day terms. Every price is the shop's own for its standard size, before delivery.
Prices and Same-Day Cut-Offs
Prices are the shops' listed prices before delivery, checked throughout the year and last read in October 2026, and same-day cut-offs are shown in New York time with a live count of who can still deliver today.

Google ratings, review counts and press read September 24 and 26, 2026. Band first, then score, then customer and delivery record; no shop pays to appear.
