Never use them! Owner completely unresponsive and dismissive of problem. Dropped off delivery in unmanned lobby of apartment complex without calling up to apartment to meet them. They had the phone number but did not call. Sat them on a give away table in the lobby. Arrangement was ruined. Refused to remake or refund! Flowers had been mediocre at best. Do Better! read more

I'll never stop raving about Beno's. Over the years this place has just gotten better and better and he has remained so warm and inviting. The best place to pick up a little gift, some flowers or even just a smile. Go check it out so you can see for yourself. Much better value than buying store bought arrangements, and so much more beautiful! read more

Wonderful service!! My uncle was at va hospital and was terminal, I called Beno's flowers, explained the situation and they were able to deliver flowers to my uncle and family an hour before he passed. I was very grateful for the professional and personal service. Thank you for making a very hard time a lil better. I recommend Beno's for any occasion as they will come through from start to finish. read more

This is my go to spot to get my girlfriend flowers. The flowers look beautiful and they have a great selection of flowers that come with very cute vases. Not only that, but the flowers ALWAYS last weeks minimum. Service here is top notch, workers are always willing to help you find something great and help you prepare your flowers. I absolutely LOVE when they have the French bulldogs there that I get to pet! Price is very fair for the quality of flowers/products, expect to spend $20-$45 depending on the size of vases/types of flowers! read more

It took me an embarrassingly long time to visit Beno's (I'll blame pandemic shutdowns), but it was well worth the wait. The shop is adorable and full of grabbable, giftable items, from botanical puzzles and Rifle Paper Co. prints to fancy chocolates and of course the flowers of your dreams. I picked up my free Yelp bouquet and was blown away by the overall look of the arrangement -- it was stunning! I love the bouquet bar and can definitely see myself returning to assemble a bouquet, maybe to gift but maybe just to brighten my own day! The prices are very much reflected in the quality of the products, which is awesome. This isn't your average flower shop. This is clearly a store run by an artist with flowers as his medium. The friendly doggo at the cash register is an added bonus! read more

Popped in for a free bouquet as a Yelp Elite perk and immediately fell in love. This little nook is packed to the brim with everything you need to construct a beautiful gift for any occasion. Stationery, trinkets, decor, and of course flowers and plants! Everything was so healthy and I spent entirely too long trying to decide which little guy to take home. Beno even repotted my plant into the cute little pot I'd chosen as well! I'll have to venture out this way more often to indulge my new plant hoarding habit. Added bonus: he had a DOG in the shop, y'all!! read more

Gorgeous shop filled with hidden treasures. From beautiful floral arrangements (see photo for proof), paper goods from Rifle Paper Company (perfect for thank you gifts and stocking stuffers), to Mast Brothers Chocolate (originally from Iowa and now live in Brooklyn), this place is a true gem. With prime real estate across from the University, it's in a perfect location to pick up weekly florals or even just swing by to say hello to the super friendly owner, Beno. Highly recommend this shop be added to your weekly routine. read more

Beno's Flowers is hands down the best stop for any of your plant/floral/gift needs! As a aspiring green thumb indoor gardener, I visit Benito's store often. He remembers my favorites each and every time, and recommends new items based on my preferences! He also gives amazing plant care advice, and checks in with you about how the plants are doing the next time you're in the store! His care for the well-being of your plants even AFTER you leave the store shows when you purchase a plant pot, he always offers to drill a drainage hole at the bottom for you. I've been to a lot of boutique floral shops and I can honestly say Beno's is above and beyond! I would recommend this store to anyone!! read more

Beno's Flowers is my favorite flower shop in Iowa City. I have shopped there in person and ordered flowers repeatedly to be delivered to a student. The arrangements are always beautiful and delivered timely. read more

Finding someone who truly cares about their products and the customer's needs is almost exclusively a small business experience. Beno himself takes small business shopping to a whole new level. I have never known someone who cares as deeply as he does about the whole customer experience. As you approach the open door you know that you are in for something special as seasonal plants and decorations spill out onto the sidewalk. You may be greeted by the neighborhood's favorite pair of dogs who enjoy the attention that is lavished upon them. When entering his shop it is a visual feast. Treasures to be gifted, plants to bring home, flowers for life's celebrations are everywhere... read more

Just. Wow. I've been in Beno's Flowers & Gifts a few times now and I always leave so impressed. Benito goes above and beyond. He is so hospitable, professional and wildly creative. While his arrangements are colorful, unique and modern-- with quality flowers. The store is so much more. There are succulents, air plants and plants, sure. But the carefully chosen party decor and accessories are awesome. Not to mention the eclectic, fun gifts. I have gone in looking for one thing and walked out with multiple others. The location is fabulous-- I love that we now have three florists in the area that are all unique in their own ways. Employees have always been helpful. Parking ramps are nearby. Pricing seems on point. Stop in! You totally will leave with more than you came for :) read more

I came in looking for a snake plant but had no clue what I was really looking for. One of the workers, Margo, stopped in the middle of what she was doing to help me! She drilled holes in the bottom of the pots I wanted, planted both plants for me, and gave me great advice! Such amazing customer service, I will be coming back here for all of my plant needs. Cute store, fun stuff, nice plants, adorable frenchies, and amazing workers! read more

I received a vase of cut flowers for my birthday from my sister. Since she is out of town it is often difficult to get a good arrangement. Beno's was a great find! The arrangement was gorgeous! Thank you read more

Benos has become my go-to gift shop! They have so many cute house plants, ceramics to put them in, cards, and trinkets. If you purchase a plant and pot for it, they'll pot it for you for free which is so nice and thoughtful! Their floral arrangements are also BEAUTIFUL! This was my first one from them but won't be my last. Everything here is very reasonably priced as well. The store owner is there pretty often and is always very friendly and welcoming. Beno's is a great addition to the Downtown Iowa City Scene :) read more

What a great addition to downtown! Beno's Flowers and Gifts is a wonderful compliment to the existing gift and plant stores downtown (Willow and Stock on the Northside and Moss on Washington Street). The store is a great size and has unique flower arrangements, accessories, and small gifts. I recently stopped in on a Friday evening in need of two poinsettias for a holiday party I was hosting. After looking around town, I found Beno's to be well-priced, quick, and very helpful! Benito, the store owner, worked with me in my price range and added evergreen to the poinsettias. To top it off, he rented me two beautiful, heavy gold vases that the poinsettias fit perfectly in. I'll definitely be back again! read more

My niece was graduating from college this past Saturday. My sister put me in charge of flowers and setting the dinner table for the celebratory dinner. I happily accepted and knew exactly who I would have create the table arrangements. Dropping into Benos amazing shop, full of unique and delightful gifts for anyone as well as green plants, fresh cut flowers, friendly adorable dogs, I talked with them about 2 table arrangements. I requested red and yelliw/gold as it was a graduation from Iowa State University, to make it fun, bright and low not high...allowing for ease of chatting around the table. Three days later I picked up the flowers and they were perfect! Beautiful in colors, fresh, young feeling and were the perfect compliment to the dining table. I received so many comments on how lovely, stunning, they were. Yay! My niece loved them, too! Benos was great and I highly recommend his business! Thanks, Benos, the flowers added to the celebration! read more

Beno's has the absolute BEST customer service. My dad gifted my wife a monthly flower delivery and it's been the best gift she's gotten. Beno texted asking her favorite kinds so each arrangement feels personalized to her style (yet with his magical touch). They come fresh - sometimes a few stems will even live until the next month's delivery! This month, my daughter had surgery the day before the usual monthly delivery. Her aunt had flowers sent to the house which were gorgeous, as usual. Beno realized he'd be delivering twice in 2 days and thought to text my wife to see if she wanted the monthly delivery pushed back a week. Seriously, cannot say enough good things. Support this awesome local dude! read more

I love this store. Everything they offer is not only beautiful and unique, but also very affordable. The owners are so kind and their shop pups are an added bonus. By far my favorite store downtown Iowa City. read more

I have shopped in this store several times and every time I go they are the most friendly, helpful, polite and enjoyable! I found several plants and Planters there that were just wonderful!

If you haven't stopped by the store yet, you are missing out! read more

I needed flowers delivered in town and didn't call until 3pm! Sad to say, Beno's wasn't the first place I called but they were the first that were helpful, gracious, and got the exact arrangement I wanted to the right address at within a coupld of hours.

Right before quarantine I attended a Lady's Night event the owner had on the Vue Rooftop. He was so funny and nice that I really wanted to support his local business. Today, I finally had an opportunity to stop in. The shop is cute and practical. The gal behind the counter was completely adorable. I will definitely be coming back in for plants and home decor. Thank you for having such a great place right downtown. read more

An Iowa City treasure. Whether you want flowers, plants or a funky gift, this is the place. Benito, the owner is very kind and friendly and has good ideas for one of a kind gifts.

My husband and I just received an absolutely stunning floral arrangement from our son in CA for our anniversary from Beno's. It contained a variety of roses and other unusual flowers and autumn touches that made it unique and very memorable. We were even called before the delivery to make sure we were at home. What service. Beno's will forever more be our go to florist in the Iowa City area. read more

I bought a mini orchid with a pot from this store. The worker who helped repot the plant and checked me out seemed clumsy and careless. She broke the first pot she was drilling a drainage hole into, which was fine by me because I just grabbed another one. Then, she attempted to take off a price tag on a string that was wrapped around the stem of the flowers, but since she was struggling, I told her that she could leave it, as I was afraid she would break off the flowers. Lastly, when she was placing the orchid in a bag, she actually did break off one of the flowers, and she subsequently quickly grabbed it and tried to hide it in her hand before I could see it, but, despite her efforts to hide it, I saw the broken off flower. This is what tipped over the scale for me. I should have said something but I already paid and didn't want to make a scene. I would come here again but I wouldn't trust that specific worker with any of my plants. read more

I highly recommend this business!! I ordered flowers for my 5 year old "little flower child" granddaughter. It is her Birthday I live in Florida and she now lives in Iowa City. She always picks wild flowers or any other flowers and gives them to me when we are walking or outside in general. I decided it was her turn to be given some flowers of her own. The owner went above and beyond to make this happen. Talking to him on the phone was a pleasure. He listened to what I wanted to achieve and then we discussed options. He sent me pictures of flowers that might be what I want. It was incredible talking to him while I viewed the selection. He adjusted flower selections until I was satisfied. He did the same process so I could select just the right vase for my five yr old. When this was decided he said he would create the bouquet and send me a picture so I could adjust if I wanted. It was beautiful. I ask him to add one more flower. Received new picture. PERFECT!! My granddaughter was so happy!! Thank you so much. I told my daughter to use Beno's for all her flower needs and related gifts!! This store will work with you to create anything. PLEASE GIVE THEM A TRY EVELYN DIXON VENICE, FLORIDA read more

Great customer service. Prompt return phone call plus they texted a picture of the floral arrangement before delivering. Even a follow up text letting me know how happy my daughter was when flowers were delivered to her! read more
