“Such a cute little place! So much fun to explore all the vintage goodies. One of the owners helped me ensure that everything was in good shape and good working order before buying. My mom and I both found exactly what we were looking for. And while I didn't come away with any vinyl, the selection of full-price and bargain-bin records is amazing.”
“This is the only coin and bullion dealer I will trust to count my coins and give me a good price. I don’t need to watch. He’s honest and pays the best prices in town by far. I have been collecting coins and bullion for years so I know a good dealer. I exclusively use this guy. His shop is worth visiting just for the excelsior memorabilia! Great shop and owner!”

3016 W 50th St, Minneapolis“Excellent shop with great ascetic and a wide assortment of antiques and vintage items like oil paintings, watercolors, lithographs, sketches, pottery, gardening related items, home decor, furniture, curio pieces, etc. There's something unique and vintage or handcrafted for various tastes and styles; lots of rarities and treasues to behold. Stop in to this shop next time you're in the area!”
“Pink Elephant is not only easily the best of the four antique/vintage stores on Main Street in Hopkins, but also is easily one of the best in the Twin Cities.
Not the largest, it's absolutely packed with quality goods. Its collection gets updated often enough it's a treasure hunt every time I go in. Plus the folks that run it are welcoming and fun.”
“My 99 year old father in law sells his Antique Treasures here almost all the sellers are who are the workers there they each work 2 days per month when selling goods at this store... so if you get a bad experience with a worker mostly they won't be in there the next time if you try them again! Most of the people selling in there are Antiques Themselves! Nice people and caring you can offer them less it never hurts to ask. It's Great they have this place to keep them busy and memories of times gone by”
“I bought a painting from an estate sale on a local website. It turned out not to be from the artist that the owner had informed Park Lane Estates - Anthony was wonderful about helping correct this error. He was fast on communications. This is definitely an honest company. Thank you!”
“It has sooo many very nice and interesting things. Hence they have a bit of a mess and sometimes you have to make an effort to look for something. Very friendly staff (not all)”

2510 Hillsboro Ave N, Golden Valley“Rob gave my 9-year-old son a top notch experience finding cards he was looking for. He listened to all of my son’s questions and went above and beyond to not only answer but help him with his perfect finds for the day. Thank you, Rob!”
“I love close by and wish I could go here more! The sweetest staff you’ll ever meet, very helpful with questions I had and just general conversation. I felt so welcomed here and love that I can support so many local sellers just by stopping at one shop! Very good selection of vintage kitchen and wall art pieces, as well as a great deal of vintage collectibles. Love love love!”
“I really like this store. To be fair, it is very hard to see everything with the clutter. If you need lamp repair parts they probably have it. Great Scandinavian items too. Lots of books and assorted merchandise. Prices were reasonable and you can negotiate a bit.”
“This place is a quiet and charming store just a few blocks from Lake Harriet. You can find all kinds of unique and exotic items which possess a spiritual dimension. The staff are wonderful people - generous with time and courteous with direction if asked.”
“This place is honestly amazing. I came in here earlier today with my sister and the worker/owner was so so so kind. She helped us look at vintage cameras and we ended up going home with two of them. I literally cannot wait to come back and get more goodies. If you are looking for good and beautiful vintage and antique jewelry you need to go here. They had some of the best jewelry I had ever seen in an antique store. I will one hundred percent be back and I can’t wait to see what I find next time!”

3505 W 44th St, Minneapolis“One of the sleekest vintage stores around. I love shopping here at Christmas for ornaments and once found some stunning paper folding Christmas trees that I can't wait to put out every year. Love love LOVE the blue room. I wish I could afford and find places for it all.”
“The second best of the four Hopkins antique stores and I really like this place. They have an enormous selection (much of which is very high quality) with great hidden finds every time I've visited.
The vendors should take care with the conversations they have in the aisles though. I didn't need to hear the "woe is us" story about how people have realized how to go to the source of vintage clothing to buy direct rather than pay the vendor's flipped pricing. Yes,it means less stock for you to upsell, but if kids these days have figured out how to better pick clean the thrift shops with their limited income, more power to them.”
11AM - 5PM
3022 W 50th St, Minneapolis“Well curated space from different vendors. So if one section isn't doing it for you, move on to the next. I'm here at least once a month because there are always new old things to find!”
“Great home finds at great prices ? I can understand how the hours may seem frustrating to some people but please check their Facebook and website instead of relying on Google. They always post it there! And also previews of what they will have which is helpful. This place has become a staple in decorating my home ?”
10AM - 6PM
901 Mainstreet, Hopkins“Well organized and clean, but really only stuff your grandmother would buy.
You might get lucky like I have in the past, but in general their selection tends towards exceedingly old and stuffy (Edwardian is I believe the style). It's all in spectacular shape, but it's well past its prime. I didn't terribly appreciate the dismissive staff; last time we were there we pointed out a mislabeled (it was not the brand it claimed to be) product that was too expensive for it's faux nature and was entirely blown off.
Worth going in, just don't expect to find much.”
“Super helpful and insightful visit. I thought I had error coins that I wasn't sure the value of, so I went here and found out they're not errors at all! I also found out the silver that I brought with me at least had some value. The I bought two cool one ounce silver coins. 100% Recommend!! H.”
