LOVE THIS PLACE!! They take COVID precautions well, have great prices and a wide variety of plants. Personally, I love their vast array of planters and pots. Super knowledgeable and kind staff. Super cute little family pet at the counter that they were kind enough to let me pet. YOU CAN TELL THEY LOVE WHAT THEY DO!

This is the best place on the north side for house plants. Theyve got healthy plants at reasonable prices, soil, fertilizer, lots of cool indoor pots. The stock rotates frequently and the staff are happy to answer questions if you are new to caring for house plants. The storefront seems small, but the building is much larger than it looks.In addition to plants, theyve got housewares, kitchen equipment, and various scrim-scrams aimed at making your apartment look and feel like home. My wife wandered in here one day after being disappointed by Gethsemanes selection, and now its a weekly stop for us.

This shop is amazing!! Such wonderful owners that will make sure all your questions are answered. Especially about what each of their plants need. They bring a smile to my face every time I come. There selection of plants are unlike any big box stores! I come here when I try to find unusual plants and they have them. The plants are healthy! COME TO Q Ideas!!!!

I’m new to planting and I just bought this monstera yesterday. Sadly, it has root rot and I feel this should not of been sold to anyone or at least warn people and not charge such a high price for a plant with root rot. It was my first time at this local shop but I will not be returning. Just a heads up to anyone new to planting!

Qideas is by far my favorite plant store in Chicago. Their prices are reasonable. Their selection is vast. The plants are healthy and well cared for. The owners are knowledgeable. But what really sets the store apart is the unparalleled customer experience. Qideas is a family business and when you shop there you are treated like family. You can expect a warm welcome from the owners and a sweet good-bye from Coco, the shop dog. If youre fortunate to have spare income right now and are looking to brighten up your life with some plants, head over to Qideas. Theres no way youll regret it!P.S. -- Follow their Instagram @qideaschicago for daily updates, plant in stock, and cute pictures of Coco

Amazing customer service- the staff were very friendly and accomodating.Wide variety of plants with plenty of selections available for a low price.One visit here has made me a loyal return customer!

What a gem! 100% recommend! Owner is wonderful and helpful! Beautiful plants and bonsai for a great price! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Awesome store with a great selection of indoor plants, succulents, and cactus. They also sell restaurant wares, super helpful if you need to stock a new home or apartment kitchen without spending a ton of money. Store is run by a nice family, and everyone is very welcoming and helpful with plant growing tips.

Very nice friendly staff! I love my new plants!

This shop has an amazing assortment of beautiful plants and eclectic little trinkets/gifts! I come for the plants, but one of my favorite things about this shop is their superb customer service. They are very knowledgeable and are always happy to thoroughly answer all my questions. I live several blocks away from the store and on my most recent trip in, one of the shop owners was kind enough to give me a ride home with my new giant plant! So happy I recently discovered this little gem of a shop! I am so excited to add to my plant collection with more plants from Q Ideas.

Owner was so kind and very knowledgeable. This shop has so many wonderful plants! I stop in every couple months and always leave with something. Today he helped me pick out my new jade and snake plant. I cant wait for them to grow! Support small business!

This place has a nice selection of bonsai trees and other house plants. Lots of potting options and gardening tools

THE PLACE to get plants! Huge selection, knowledgeable staff & great prices! 🌱💕

This is the best place to get plants, kitchenware, and imported goods! Coco (the store dog) is also the cutest mascot I have ever seen and pet haha! This was such a great business and I love the fact they are local and minority owned. I will always go to this store for all my plant needs! The kindest service ever! Will come back soon!

Selection was pretty decent and I was given a lot of friendly advice!

I bought a fiddle leaf fig tree from here and it was only 2 ft tall when I bought it, its now over 8 ft and became such a beautiful healthy plant! Everyone who sees it comments on how nice it is and think its an artificial plant because its so big and green.

This is my favorite plant store in Uptown. They have an amazing selection, super helpful staff, and the cutest lil shop dogs you could ever hope to meet. I cannot recommend them highly enough! Their selection is always changing and always fresh. Theyve had fruit trees, eucalyptus, calathea, rubber plants, snake plants, bamboo, herbs, vegetables....everything! They can also order for you and their prices are really great. Check. Them. Out.

Got this healthy looking ZZ plant that I’ve been on the hunt for. Glad I found it at a local business instead of purchasing online!

Such a warm and welcoming family shop! There is a wide variety of plants to choose from and the staff is highly knowledgeable.

Just bought a nice little bamboo plant for valentines day. Shop was super cute, owner was very nice and they had great pricing! Great place for gifts.

One of the best, friendliest plant shops in the city. The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable, and the prices are usually pretty great. Highly recommended, and very much missed after I moved away.

Always a pleasure to shop here.

Great stock of plants and kitchen gadgets. Owner was knowledgeable and passionate about the plants and care instructions.

Such an awesome place. Sweet store owners and cute dogs. The prices are great!

Great inventory and they’re so knowledgeable about all the plants! Always a pleasure visiting their shop on the weekends.

Great bonsai supplies and gifts. Super friendly and helpful staff.

Interesting little place. Purchased a wonderful Jasmine plant here. Good place for plants, Asian supplies and gifts.

Great selection of goods and plants a little bit expensive on some things the owners are very friendly and welcoming

Nice selection of plants and very friendly and knowledgeable owners. I will be back.

Neat little place for exotic plants and other knick knacks from Vietnam and China

Helpful and friendly.

They have great service, exotic/asian indoor plants, and restaurant supplies.Great ServiceI went in to buy a double flower jasmine plant for my mother and just as soon as I walked in I was greeted by an employee. The employee there catered to all my questions and was very helpful. She gave me great helpful tips and instructions on how to keep that damn plant alive, so I can relay it back to my mother.Indoor PlantsYou cant get them anywhere else. It is really hard to find a store with exotic asian indoor plants because other stores the plants are in horrible conditions. The prices seemed very reasonable so if you forgot your mothers birthday, stop by for a quick cheap gift.Restaurant SuppliesThe other side of qideas is the restaurant supplies. I glanced around and they carry everything. From plates to bowls, utensils and to a small private kitchen equipment to large restaurant equipment (i.e. fridges, stoves, etc).I LOVE this store. I will be stopping by for more gift ideas and etc.

ALWAYS stop here...mainly for kitchenware. Good prices.
