The 5 Best Florists in Manchester City Centre for Truly Special Occasions!

  • Track record- The florists in this list definitely know what they’re doing, leaving behind lots of happy customers who’d love to buy from them again.
  • Value for Money - Save for a few exceptions, a lot of the bouquets and bunches that these florists sell are at pretty reasonable prices. You’ll feel like you either saved money on a frugal choice or that you got your money’s worth with a lot of their products.
  • Variety of Offerings - One thing we were impressed by, with these florists, is that they’ve got flowers for different kinds of occasions and vibes. You can be as generic or as specific as you want when describing the bouquet you need, and you’ll be happy with what they suggest and deliver.
  • Service Quality - To these florists, the customer is always right. Each of them listens to feedback and does their best to meet their customers’ needs, so you’ll be sure that you’ll feel satisfied buying from one of them.

Sometimes, we don’t exactly have the right words to use when we want to thank or congratulate someone. Which is why the next best thing is to find the right flowers to use! 

And let’s face it, flowers are a pretty safe go-to option for gifts or to make a statement. They’re pretty to look at and nice to smell, so your chances of offending anyone you give them to are little to none! That is, if you find the right flowers!

If there’s one thing we loved about Verdure Floral Design, it’s that they’ll get you any flower for any occasion, or mood! And when we mean any flower, we mean any flower.

But the best part about their selection? They have some of the most #aesthetic arrangements! We could tell they put lots of care and thought into each piece, probably why they were just great to look at.

We just wish the photos on their website were a bit more accurate; it was annoying seeing inconsistencies.

Another annoying thing was that even simple arrangements could be really expensive. And another thing, we could only get consultations on floral arrangements via appointment, so keep that in mind too!

Pros

  • Has delivery services
  • Has same-day delivery
  • Has event-focused services
  • Has balloon and card additions to arrangements
  • Wide variety of flowers

Cons

  • Appointment-only consultations
  • Flowers don’t match the sample photos 
  • Pricey simple arrangements

Extremely impressive service

“Absolutely beautiful floral arrangement. The nicest I have seen! The service was perfection. I ordered online at 12.30 and the delivery was made 2 hours later. Not only that, I got 3 texts updating me on the progress so no sitting wondering whether the flowers had been received or not. Extremely impressive service. Could not have asked for more!”

Exceptional quality

We were very happy with Verdure for our wedding flowers. They made time for us at relatively short notice and had 2 consultations with us to make sure they capture exactly what we wanted. They were very [accommodating] and worked within our budget. The Verdure team made and delivered the bridal [bouquet] and two massive flower arrangements on time. The quality was truly exceptional!

Looking through what they offered, we knew one thing for sure: no matter how tall the order, they could deliver! They’ve got variety and convenience all in one with their services and speedy delivery!

They can also have flowers arranged in more elaborate ways! So if you want to wow attendees at any kind of gathering, you could have them arrange gorgeous floral wreaths and garlands.

We were just disappointed to find that many of their offerings were expensive! While we didn’t mind it for most of what they offered (can’t argue when they’re good at what they do!), seeing that even simple 3-flower bouquets were pricey did peeve us a little.

Another thing that peeved us was that the packaging could use some improvement—definitely lower your expectations a bit if they promise a speedy delivery!

Pros

  • Has delivery services
  • Has same-day delivery
  • Has balloon additions to arrangements
  • Wide variety of arrangements

Cons

  • Low-quality packaging
  • Pricey even for simpler arrangements

Incredible service

“Honestly cannot praise this place enough – I spoke to them via WhatsApp after struggling with my address when ordering online, they sorted me out immediately and agreed they could still deliver the same day even though i’d missed the cut off. There was an issue delivering to the address so the driver took them back to the shop, the lady I’d dealt with then agreed to deliver them herself at a more suitable time on her way home after closing up the shop that evening! Incredible and attentive service, pleasant and friendly interaction and to top it off the flowers are of course perfect!”

Danny A., Google Review

Professional and lovely bunch

“Had some funeral flowers done last week and everyone was truly amazed at how beautiful they were! The staff are very professional and a lovely bunch of people! I would highly recommend giraffe flowers to anyone. Words can’t describe how beautiful the flowers were. Thank you giraffe it was very much appreciated”

Now, this will be great if you want to give some apology flowers fresh off an argument!

From what we’ve seen, Clocktower Florist has some of the freshest flowers on this side of Manchester! We also appreciate the fact that they do event and venue decoration, including maintenance for floral decorations.

The best part is that they’ll also try to keep their flowers as fresh as possible, even when delivering them. So even with their deliveries, you can still get a new-looking bunch!

But, we found out that they only do deliveries if the pickup is within 5 miles of their store. So any farther than that, and you’ll have to opt out of delivery!

Another issue we noticed with their delivery services was that they’re not the most organised bunch. So even if you manage to order a delivery, you’ll have to prepare yourself for a delayed one!

Pros

  • Wide variety of flowers
  • Wide variety of arrangements
  • Provides flowers as fresh as possible
  • Has delivery services
  • Includes an aquapack in deliveries
  • Has balloon, card, and small gift additions to deliveries

Cons

  • Pricey even for simple/small arrangements
  • Disorganised/late order preparation
  • Only do deliveries within 5 mi/8 km of the shop

Highly recommend

“Their collection of flowers and plants is absolutely stunning—fresh, vibrant, and beautifully arranged. Whether you’re looking for a unique bouquet, elegant houseplants, or seasonal blooms, they have something for every occasion. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, helping me pick the perfect arrangement for a special gift. The attention to detail and quality of their flowers truly set them apart. Plus, the shop has such a lovely atmosphere—it’s a joy just to walk in and browse! I highly recommend this store to anyone looking for top-quality flowers and excellent service. I’ll definitely be coming back for all my floral needs and plants 🌿🌸”

“Beautiful bouquet, I just asked for something romantic with a few roses and they certainly delivered! They also delivered to my hotel as requested.”

Flower picking can be a really hands-on business, which is why we really appreciate it when a store also does a hands-on approach!

When we went into Northern Flower’s studio, we were guided every step of the way, and they were really friendly and professional too! As another bonus, their selection was pretty easy on our wallets! Even their cheaper products were pretty good! 

Though if there’s one thing we learned after buying from them, it’s that the quality goes down with the price! When we received the flowers we ordered, we were a bit disappointed since the packaging wasn’t as beautiful as the pictures on their website.

And if you decide to check out their selection, you’ll notice that they don’t have a very detailed set of arrangements, compared to the other stores we listed here. 

Pros

  • Wide variety of flowers
  • Has delivery services
  • Good quality products, even on their cheaper end
  • Affordable prices

Cons

  • Limited number of arrangements
  • Low-quality packaging

Great experience

“Great experience! Bought my indoor plant for the first time, and the staff were all so nice and friendly. The shop is lovely, has a wide range of plants and flowers, and many vases to choose from. Would love to visit again!

Jazmine Wang, Google Review

Friendly and professional

“Will did us a bunch of flowers for a friends birthday. He was friendly and professional and clearly is very good at his job. Would definitely use this service again!”

Flower Style Manchester lets you order right from the comfort of your room, and they don’t disappoint!

While their stock is rather limited, they make up for it with how beautiful it is! Plus, they helped us figure out which flowers would be great to be included in the bouquets we ordered, which we really appreciated. 

Their décor services for events like weddings and funerals also didn’t disappoint! They always make sure to coordinate with the vision their customers have in mind.

And as another plus, they can do same-day deliveries too! So all the ordering and receiving can be done from the comfort of your home! The only downside is that they’ll only do deliveries if you’re within 10 miles of their store. 

Otherwise, you’ll have to personally come to the store yourself!

Pros

  • Has delivery services
  • Has same-day delivery
  • Has card message additions to arrangements
  • Has online shopping

Cons

  • Limited number of varieties
  • Limited number of arrangements
  • Only do deliveries within a 10-mile radius of the store

Pleased ‘other half’ and friend

“Sorry it took so long to leave this review. I ordered two bouquets to be delivered to the Clayton Hotel recently. We were in Manchester for the Andre Rieu concert on a four day break. One was for ‘the other half’. The other was a gift, for some friends of ours. Who moved to Manchester a few years ago. Both bouquets were in the room when we got our keys. They were both very good. I got brownie points from ‘er in doors and our friends were very pleased with their flowers. Ours lasted for about two weeks. We received another thank you from our friends for theirs, in a recent Easter card. On behalf of everyone, can I thank you and your team, for making our stay in Manchester just that little bit more special.”

Christopher Lukins, Google Review

Nicest bunch of flowers

“Beautiful flowers at a [moment’s] notice! I contacted the shop quite late in the afternoon and within 30 minutes I was presented with this beautiful bouquet! Nicest bunch of flowers I’ve bought!”
