We ordered our Nordmann Fir from John and despite him working into the wee hours fitting out and preparing the new Southside shop he went out his way to make sure it was with us on the day we planned to put it up, delivering it at 2.30 am that morning. The tree was perfect, looked freshly cut and is no doubt the best real tree we've ever had, the extra effort made it noteworthy experience and I wish him and Nicola all the best in the new shop. Hopefully he's not out delivering on the 24th or he'll be getting in the way of the big man himself! Thanks again. John, Michelle, Freya and Euan.

From gorgeous flowers and amazing plants not forgetting the fantastic range of plant pots in store. I use the fruit and veg delivery service it was a saviour in lockdown the produce is just so fresh. I would highly recommend this little paradise of a shop always service with a smile

We have just received one of the veg boxes from Barvas and James. The box was kindly delivered to our flat and has such a great selection. I received great service when placing my order and it brightened up my day :) At such a difficult time it is amazing to see businesses supporting the local community. Will definitely be coming back!

The wedding service these guys provide is absolutely amazing! My bridal bouquet was so beautiful! The bridesmaids flowers and the table centerpieces were stunning! John is so helpful and was so patient with my lack of flower knowledge and my last minute changes! During my consultations with John and Nicola, they listened to my ideas and brought them to life which left me in awe on the big day. The number of compliments I received on the day were an absolute credit to them. I can't rate them highly enough.

I couldn’t recommend this florist enough. They are so accommodating to your budget. They create really vibrant and unique bouquets and they have fantastic selection of flowers. One of the best florists in Glasgow.

Great shop, friendly staff. Wide variety of healthy plants. They have a great mix of standard houseplants and rare varieties for discerning customers! All plants I've purchased have been doing extremely well, growing healthily. Will continue to shop here!

Thanks so much to Barvas and James got the much needed fruit and veg box. Delivered with a friendly wave, without the need for direct contact. Great selection of fresh fruit and veg. Should help keep us healthy in these troubled times.

What a delightful box of joy delivered directly to my door. So good to have fresh fruit and veg again cannot thank you enough Barvas & James in these strange and difficult times. Will be ordering again for sure.

Just received our veg box from Barvas & James absolutely full of wonderful goodies. Lots of different fruit and veg to get meal planning with :) Thanks for pivoting to providing such a valuable service during these difficult times!!

A massive thanks to Barvas and Jones. I ordered flowers for my daughter in law after the birth of their baby. I asked for specific flowers. The same as they had at their wedding last year. The owner was able to get these for me. The bouquet was stunning. Just exactly what I asked for. Many thanks Jilly.

Myself and my now Husband Jamie were married at the Lodge on Loch Lomond on the 28th of December 2019. We got all of our wedding flowers supplied by Barvas & James. Myself and my Husband were absolutely delighted with all the flowers that were used for our big day, as were our family & friends as some got buttonholes. They were in perfect beautiful condition, despite the awkward time of year that we chose to get married. Barvas&James went the extra mile to ensure we were catered to without us having to worry. The flowers were prefect and creative whilst very fresh. We had lots of positive conpliments about our flowers on the day. Myself and my husband were both working abroad often on the run up to our wedding, however Barvas & James were flexible whilst being very helpfull and supportive arround ensuring our flowers were ready for our wedding and I look forward to continuing to use Barvas & James as my florist. Thanks again for everything, The New Mrs Fiona Doulton and Mr Jamie Doulton 🤵👰❤️

Discovered Barvas and James during lockdown, buying their lovely fruit and veg boxes which are delivered to your doorstep. Stunning flowers and plants and fantastic service. Would really recommend this lovely family business in Glasgow’s West End 😀

Stunning flowers and the best looking plants and pots around. Highly recommend them, also good to pop in for gifts such as candles etc. Great local shop and all the better for being next to the fantastic William Cafe too.

Such a great shop, beautiful plants and wonderful flowers. Brilliant range and they are very knowledgeable and helpful. Very reasonable prices and there is something to suit every pocket.

Made up a beautiful bouquet, on the spot from just a few simple ingredients. Not cheap but worth every penny paid

My daughter Fiona married Jamie on 28/12/19 at Lodge on the Loch,Luss.The flowers were all absolutely stunning.Fionas bridal bouquet was beautiful and much more than we could have wished for.The four bridesmaids and flower girl also had exceptionally lovely bouquets.The floral arrangement for the top table was perfect.I as mother of bride received a beautiful bouquet as did the grooms nan.John also made a lovely bouquet for a guests 70th birthday.We had gone in to a number of florists previously and none were interested in the event as it was the Saturday between Christmas and New Year and all florists had been very negative about flowers for a wedding on that date.We had not heard of Barvas and James and my daughter was recommend to try there and had been advised that John was very helpful.As soon as we met John we couldn’t believe the difference in approach to the other florists,he was very friendly,professional and was very happy to provide flowers on that day.There were no negatives,only positives.I would absolutely recommend Barvas and James to all.On the day John arrived promptly and with no fuss.John is very relaxed,friendly and easy to work with.As a family we also have bought flowers for gifts over the last few months,they were always stunning and enjoyed by the recipients.We are so happy to have had that initial recommendation and therefore wish all future brides to know that when organising wedding flowers through Barvas and James the process will be stress free and the resulting flowers on the day will be phenomenal.Thank you very much again John for all your hard work

Over the last year, between lockdown and wanting to enjoy more local shops, I came across a family-run business called Barvas & James and decided to treat myself to some beautiful flowers while I worked away at home. Their bouquets lift my spirit every time I walk into the room. I soon found out that they do more than plants and flowers, their fruit and veg boxes have fresh, seasonal produce which is overflowing, and always happily devoured. This year's Christmas tree lasted 6 weeks and still looked and smelled as fresh as the first day. When I have a question or want to place an order, they are very communicative and helpful. And when I've been lucky enough to visit the shop, I always have the warmest greeting and manage to come away with extra goodies like candles, chocolates, pottery and jewelry. This is a shop that makes you feel like you're not in the middle of a large city, but will go above and beyond to help fill your home (or the lucky friends & family you might be sending them to) with the most beautiful flowers and plants, lushest fruit & veg boxes, and best extras to boost!

Living so far away from my homeland, "Scotland" It has been a blessing and joy to discover Barvas & James! I am a firm believer in supporting small businesses. Barvas & James capture the wild like beauty of flowers & foliage that I love! My friends & Family are the lucky ones who receive delivery of such beautiful flowers! They share with me their delight and happiness on receiving. Thank you Barvas & James!

Stunning fresh enormous sumptuous bouquet! My son sent me flowers from Barvas and James on Queen Margaret Drive, Glasgow for my birthday in December. Absolutely gorgeous inspiring selection of flowers and foliage and little berries!

I have previously shopped at Barvas and James for plants and they have a lovely range of plants and pots at fair prices. The assistant also gave me great advice on looking after my orchid which is still going strong! Today I supported them in their new venture in these difficult times delivering fruit and veg boxes. The box was filled with excellent quality goods with a good variety of fruit and veg too. Love the dirty carrots! Thank you Barvas and James for providing such a great service to allow us to avoid big supermarkets and #shoplocal.

Great selection of plants. Large and small with occasional rare finds. Every plant we've bought so far has been in excellent condition, looking very healthy and well looked after. The owner is lovely as well. Very friendly and always offers tips and information on the plants we buy. Looking forward to going back soon. Ps. The shop also has some amasing colourful tribal looking pots that are great to bring some colour in one's space.

P. G.

I absolutely love Barvas & James at the best of time - they have the best selection of indoor plants in the west end , beautiful candles and gorgeous plan pots. It's safe to say I'm their number 1 fan. But in the current climate they have started doing contactless delivery of the most incredible fruit & veg box's to the community at such a reasonable price. It is difficult to get nice fresh things at the moment so this was like a tasty ray of sunshine arriving at my door.

N. S.

I had a great experience at Barvas and James. They have the best selection of variegated plants I've seen in Glasgow. The owners are fun and friendly and if they don't have what you're looking for they can help source it for you. The prices are the most reasonable I've seen and I will definitely be back. Highly recommend a visit if your a plant lover like me or for gifts, lovely range of pots, candles and they have jewellery coming soon I think.

L. M.

Barvas & James is my go to florist and plant shop when in Glasgow, and when abroad for the best online service and delivery! John and Nicola go above and beyond with their knowledge and their amazing customer service! Highly recommend this fabulous independent business for all your plant and floral desires!
