Crazy Daisies Flowers in Syracuse is not your average garden center. Although this garden center does sell plants and flowers and other things that you’d expect a garden center to sell, there’s a whole lot more going on here, too. The Garden Cafe at Crazy Daisies offers fantastic food and drinks every day of the week and you’ll be amazed by the selection of goodies that it creates and serves. On top of that, it’s a great place to hang out with your friends, too. Read on to learn more about this very special place.
Crazy Daisies Flowers has been serving Syracuse for over a decade. It's family owned and operated and that family has six kids. The whole family is involved in the business.
Of course, like any other garden center, Crazy Daisies sells plants, and lots of them. The selection here is vast and varied, and you'll surely find at least one new plant friend to take home every time you visit.
Crazy Daisies started with one greenhouse, but it has grown into so much more. The most notable part of this place today, besides the plants and greenhouses, of course, is The Garden Cafe.
The Garden Cafe has a rotating menu. Small plates are available at any time. Lunch is offered Tuesday through Thursday. Pizza is sold on Friday and on weekend afternoons, and you can order brunch on Saturday and Sunday mornings.
This garden center cafe also has a liquor license, so it also serves New York State beers, wines, spirits, and ciders. All the cocktails served at The Garden Cafe are beautiful and look as good as they taste.
The food is all made from scratch and from fresh, local ingredients. Crazy Daisies' Garden Cafe works with a large number of local vendors to create their dishes.
You'll probably have a hard time choosing what to get. Fortunately, due to the rotating menu, you can come back time and time again and each visit will be a different experience.
There's indoor seating for cooler and rainy days, but most people prefer to sit outside. There are so many tables and the outdoor setting is so inviting.
Crazy Daisies also offers yoga and other fitness classes several days each week, and garden workshops sometimes, too. There's so much to do at Crazy Daisies!
As you can see, Crazy Daisies Flowers & Garden Cafe is a very special place. Even if you don’t think you need to buy any plants or flowers, you should stop by soon. You can enjoy a meal and some drinks at The Garden Cafe and you can check out some live local music. You’ll want to come back time and time again. This garden center is not like any other on earth!
