1. Alta Vista Flowers · ⭐ 9.5
(940 reviews)
+2 photos
1181 Bank St, Ottawa, ON K1S 3X7, Canada
Alta Vista Flowers is the shop you call in Old Ottawa South when the gift has to be right and the deadline is today. It is family-run, the arrangements are built by the shop's own designers rather than lifted off a shelf, and the same counter handles a wedding consultation, an order for a downtown office and a bouquet somebody remembered at ten in the morning. The shop describe…
2. Nectar Flowers · ⭐ 9.9
(868 reviews)
+2 photos
2784 Lancaster Rd Unit c, Ottawa, ON K1B 4S4, Canada
Nectar Flowers is a working studio in east-central Ottawa where the arrangement you order is designed rather than pulled together from a catalogue page. That distinction is the shop's own, and it explains the client list it publishes: politicians, embassies, universities, hospitals, television, plus a steady flow of birthdays and apologies from people who live ten minutes away.…
3. Weekly Flowers · ⭐ 9.9
(761 reviews)
+2 photos
5303 Canotek Rd #3, Ottawa, ON K1J 9M2, Canada
The name suggests a subscription service, and subscriptions are indeed part of it — but Weekly Flowers is a full florist that has been working out of the same east-end business park since 1984, with its own designers and its own vans. Its distinguishing feature is stubborn availability: deliveries run seven days a week, three hundred and sixty-five days a year, which in a city…

4. Sandy's Flowers & More · ⭐ 10.0
(556 reviews)
+2 photos
675 Bronson Ave, Ottawa, ON K1S 5W7, Canada
A small owner-run shop just west of downtown, open every day, and one of the newest flower shops in Ottawa — it opened in the spring of 2023. What it has instead of a long history is a qualified designer standing behind the counter: the owner, Tara, holds a florist diploma and worked as a master designer for two established Ottawa flower businesses before this, having run her o…
5. Vivian Flowers · ⭐ 9.9
(406 reviews)
+2 photos
1600 Merivale Rd Unit 7, Ottawa, ON K2G 5J8, Canada
A flower shop you can sit down in — rare anywhere, and close to unheard of in a Barrhaven plaza. Terra sells cut flowers, bouquets and a large range of indoor plants, and it also runs a café in the same room, so choosing an arrangement can take as long as a coffee rather than as long as a queue. The business used to trade as Terra Plants and Flowers before it moved out to Barrh…
6. Bel Fiore Flower Shop, Downtown Ottawa · ⭐ 9.5
(399 reviews)
+2 photos
276 Elgin St, Ottawa, ON K2P 1M2, Canada
Twenty-five years on the same downtown corner is rare in the flower trade, and Bel Fiore has spent them building a reputation for bouquets that do not look like everyone else's. This is the shop for the person who wants something with a bit of character — textured, seasonal, slightly asymmetric — and who is happy to let a florist decide what is worth buying that week.
7. Terra Flowers & Flavours Cafe Barrhaven · ⭐ 9.5
(398 reviews)
+2 photos
220 Kennevale Dr Unit 102/103, Ottawa, ON K2J 6B6, Canada
Most flower shops want you in and out in five minutes. Terra was rebuilt on the opposite idea: a Barrhaven floral studio with a café inside it, where the bouquet is chosen over a coffee and a workshop table sits among the plants. For a suburb where the alternative is usually a drive downtown or a grocery-store bunch, that combination is the whole point.
«The moment you open the door, the gentle aroma of fresh coffee welcomes you.
The staff is…»
8. W Flowers INC. · ⭐ 9.9
(388 reviews)
+2 photos
1556 Merivale Rd, Ottawa, ON K2G 3J8, Canada
W Flowers is a one-designer shop, and that shows in both directions: the arrangements lean European — structured, tall, built around line rather than filler — and the rules around delivery are unusually explicit for a small florist. If you like knowing exactly when an order stops being a today order, this is the shop that tells you.
9. Beaudry Flowers · ⭐ 9.7
(320 reviews)
+2 photos
505 Industrial Ave, Ottawa, ON K1G 0Z1, Canada
A florist that has kept the same family running it since 1990 knows a city's calendar better than any newcomer: which offices order every Monday, which hotel lobby needs replanting in November, how early the sympathy calls start after a long weekend. Beaudry is that shop — founded by Wadia, now run as a mother-and-daughter business, and built as much around standing corporate w…
10. Talia Flowers · ⭐ 9.5
(265 reviews)
+2 photos
2401 Bank St #6, Ottawa, ON K1V 8R9, Canada
Talia Flowers is the kind of neighbourhood shop a city's south end quietly depends on: family-owned, more than a decade in the same community, and organized around one thing above all — getting a bouquet to an address in Ottawa the same day it was ordered. Most of the work is the everyday gift calendar: birthdays, anniversaries, a new baby, a get-well delivery, congratulations…
