Hello, my name is Jane and I am the owner of Clores Flowers. My staff and I apologize if you thought we were rude and did not want to assist you; no one was looking for a fight. We showed you an option but the particular quality of flowers that you wanted to incorporate within the arrangement did not work with the budget you presented us. We are committed to offering a certain style, certain image with our product and anything that leaves this store must look and adhere to that standard. Our product comes from all over the globe and we are committed to trying to offer these products at a reasonable market price. We wish we could have helped you. On a personal note, merchants in this town deal with a variety of challenges on a daily basis. Those of us that are still standing, have made it through a recession, Sandy, increase rent costs, increase health costs, increase taxes, payroll and sales, increase freight costs, competition from large retail chains just to name a few. We are an important element of this community. We give back to the community. We give to the schools, the shelters, the parks and so on. We are proud of what we do and proud to be a part of this GREAT community. Yelp, I thought was a venue for people to find different products that meet their needs within our community. However, it seems it has hit an all time low by becoming a bashing blog to merchants, and in my opinion; this does not help the community at large at all. We are people too. We have feelings too. Respect, courtesy, is a two way street. It is received and given. For those of you who have been loyal consumers, thank you. It is truly appreciated and we are committed to giving you quality product and quality service which we have for your 8 years. read more

While visiting relatives in Montclair, I stopped at J. Clores to pick up a flower arrangement to bring along on the visit. I could not have had a more pleasant experience! The owners of the store were welcoming and extremely helpful. The quality of the flowers was outstanding. What most impressed me was that the person who helped me took the time to listen and understand exactly what I was looking for. As a result, I left with the perfect arrangement. My relatives were delighted. I cannot comprehend one of the other reviews I read here, which said the owners were rude. I found the exact opposite. Everyone there was wonderful! I would highly recommend J. Clores for anyone looking for quality flowers and prompt, friendly service. Thank you J. Clores!!! read more

Wow! I usually use Yelp to get recommendations for dining but after my recent experience with Clores, I had to take the time to pass it on. I usually tell my husband not to bother with Valentines Day flowers because the prices are jacked up and the flowers aren't great quality. He didn't listen to me this year and sent the most amazing arrangement for Valentine's Day. I just had to toss it today and it looked gorgeous until just a few days ago. The flowers were gorgeous and fragrant and so artistically arranged. I buy flowers often and usually just stop at the nearest florist. I was blown away and will now never shop anywhere else for my floral needs. We are new to the area and I am so happy to have found such a quality florist nearby. read more

I just read a post by someone who claimed that Jane was rude to a customer. I cant even fathom this concept. I have been on both the buying and receiving end of Clores flowers business and I have NEVER heard a rude or even negative comment from Jane. Not only is Jane talented but she is also generous to our community, friendly to all of us and she is reliable. Walking into Clores is like walking onto a set of a flower shop that one would see in a movie. Jane creates a small town feel in a BIG way with her sweet nurtured business. Please dont let one review keep you from having the Clores experience that I promise wont disappoint you.And tell Jane hello for me :) read more

I have been using Clores for years. Jane and her staff are easy to deal with, creative and always willing to go the extra mile. I bought small plants for two friends I was having lunch with before Mothers Day and they wrapped up the inexpensive plants so beautifully that my friends scolded me for being so extravagant! My husband has sent me cut flower arrangements that have looked fresh and and beautiful for two full weeks. I use Clores for all my floral needs and have always been impressed with the quality and creativity of Jane and her staff. I recommend Clores highly and without reservation. read more

I live in Bergen county and work in Montclair. I have been using Clores for over 5 years now. I can purchase flowers closer to home, but I can't the find the quality of product and service as I receive from Clores. The ladies who own this shop are always courteous ,and the staff as well. they always seem to be able to accommodate me, even late in the day in my rush home. My wife loves the creative and well thought out arrangements. I see this shop has been awarded the best of Essex in the florist category. Congratulations it is well deserved! read more

Oh I wish I could post NO STARS. Yes, they may have beautiful flowers but beautiful flowers do not make up for being a jerk! I walked in hoping to purchase a bouquets for a friend and wasn't greeted or even acknowledged. When I approached someone who worked there she looked at me like I was crazy! I asked a few questions and she was rude, sharp and spoke to me like I was a stupid five year old. I left and went to andersons flowers, across town. Much better place! I will never go back. read more
