5021 Excelsior Blvd, St Louis Park“Lots of interesting mid-century modern stuff here. Was here looking for a coffee table but they didn't have the style I wanted, I'll have to stop back as the owner apparently gets new stuff in all the time. There was lots of other cool stuff here that I didn't need!”
“Twelve Vultures is such an amazing shop. I don't know what I love more, the uniquely curated assortment of wonder in every square inch of this place, or chatting with the knowledgeable and friendly owner. If you are interested in odd knickknacks or want a statement piece for your collection, this is the place.”

316 W 38th St, Minneapolis“LOVE this place! Such a beautiful curation of products and welcoming + warm experience. Not only does Amanda have an amazing eye for finding gems, she takes the time to understand your style + needs to provide thoughtful recommendations. I so appreciate this space in our community!”
“Most professional and reliable tailoring in Minneapolis. I've been using sewbiz for a decade and have always received the best tailoring for suits and casual clothing.”
“It's an excellent place to fix your clothing. I took my purse and down jacket (both had some zipper issues), and after that, another store wanted to overcharge me. The two young men working there were amiable, and they took a look at my down jacket and were able to fix the zipper in 5 minutes. As for my purse, I left it there for about a week, and they called me when it was ready to pick up. I was thrilled with the result, and the fees were very reasonable. I think it would be a good idea to repair the lair. Good job, and Thank you.Update as 03/2024:I used their service again recently. The rate has gone up, but it's understandable. I took a winter extra-long jacket to replace the zip. They were able to fix it in a few days. They have moved to a new location, but the service is still on the same stand. I recommend them.”
“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!”
“I've been looking for a credenza for media in the living room for months and MAD had several wonderful options that I could be sure were high quality and well restored. Doug was super friendly and easy to work with and even delivered this enormous piece of furniture to my second floor condo! I'm so happy with how this completes my space and will return to MAD for other piece I want to invest in for the long term.”
“Discovered this hidden treasure of a thrift store today! I love the concept the owners have created with this store. Bonus it was 50% anything with a Star today. Very passionate, friendly staff as well!”

2852 Johnson St NE, Minneapolis“Loved the vibes of this place! Excellent earrings, clothing, hair clips, etc, especially for the alternative crowd. It is a bit pricey for a thrift store, but I think it’s worth it if you’re struggling to find what you like at the more common chain thrift stops.”
12 - 5PM
4206 Cedar Ave, Minneapolis“The vibes in this store are immaculate! Their used records are also sorted which is a huge plus. Selection can be more on the pricier side in comparison to other thrift stores since it seems like they want to keep all of their stuff to look really cool. The person working was also friendly and let us browse the front without any issues. Overall a solid place to stop!”

1433 W Lake St, Minneapolis“I really wanted to like it more, but the lack of sorting by size is ridiculous. I'm an XL and very few of their items fit and it's too much work finding anything.”
“Talk about a hole in the wall, a hidden gem, or a diamond in the rough! I love thrifting and checking out all the places to do so when visiting a new town. If I were to come back to the twin cities, I would be sure to stop into the Cat and the Cobra! Locating the store was a little harder than anticipated. It is in the back of the parking lot behind the locked door, but it is the first door inside the building. Not to mention the cool vibes and architecture of the building. I highly recommend walking around and checking it out. There was an amazing selection of any article of clothing you were looking for. I would say the majority of the items were typically priced. Some articles hanging were a little overpriced, but the best part was the bins in the back of the store! I found two shirts in the bins that were $5 each! It was a STEAL of a deal for vintage t-shirts in the condition they were in. I got one ESPN shirt and a Strigus 2006 shirt. Not to mention how fun it is to shift through bins to find those hidden gems of shirts. In addition to a more expensive rainforest cafe t-shirt that was hanging on the walls of shirts. Overall, the service, selection, and value of the store and its articles were top-tier for vintage thrift! I highly recommend stopping in!”
“I rarely walk out empty handed. A solid third of my vintage/thrifted heavy wardrobe made its way to me via Timebomb. I hit up lots of thrift stores and when I’m looking for something truly retro (maybe pre 2005?) it’s worth it to hit up a place with a more curated selection. Im so glad you exist!”
“Highly recommend the Pink Elephant. There are quite a few Vintage & Antique shops in Hopkins, but this is by far the best. Like other Yelpers have mentioned, super friendly and helpful staff. We were looking for vintage glassware for our bar and they pointed us in the right direction. They even offered to keep an eye out when new glassware items come in. Great place!”

582 Prairie Center Dr # 235, Eden Prairie“This place is a great place to go to to get baby clothes or infant clothes or toddler clothes and also they will take clothes that your babies do not wear anymore and they will give you cash for it but I do recommend if you bring your baby clothing make sure there is no stains or anything on it because they will not take it and they love name brand clothes but they got to match the brand name so they look at all that type of stuff so go check it out and have a great day everyone”
“Fabulous vintage store with beautiful clothes and jewelry! The staff and owner are knowledgeable, welcoming and treat you like a friend. I highly recommend The Golden Pearl.”
“I stopped in to Antiques on Mainstreet to find specific items to use for shelf decorations, like old books. It's always tough going in to an antique shop with specific needs as you never know what you'll find. Anyway, the store is two levels and set up with individual stalls for each vendor. The basement has a large collection of books but unfortunately they were a bit high for me (although totally fair priced). Good variety of items although it felt like at the moment, they had less decor and more collectibles, broadly speaking. The workers were all nice and offered to let me put my items down while I shopped. Definitely a place to stop by if you're on the hunt for antiques or just enjoy browsing!”
“OH MY GOSH! Stumbled up this cute place by accident. It is so eccentric and eclectic.
The way she has each area set up is so artistic and amazing. Everything is for sale.ans she has coffee in the kitchen.
Love the homemade lamp shades.”
“Order laundry detergent and bleach from here. The products literally saved old coverlets that had developed a putrid smell during storage. Brava to those products.”
“Probably my fave card shop in the metro. It's very cozy and welcoming. Huge variety of everything. I especially like the sit down area where you have plenty of elbow room to go through stuff, without feeling pressed to buy something or rush through the process. They are also very reasonable in negotiating prices of used items.”
“My wife and I have shopped at Fashion Avenue in Edina for several years. They have a great selection and the pricing is fair. it's upscale quality merchandise and the people running the place are always nice to deal with.”
“Front of the store has some really great artwork, furniture, and lighting. Pricing system has regular markdowns so with a little patience and luck you could get a great deal.”
“Great selection! Some of the reviewers here clearly don’t know the effort that goes into not just being a shop, but also PRIMARILY a safe space for many women to gather. Me being a customer comes secondarily to me financially supporting this space.”
“Great place to find that rare item you didn't know you needed or couldn't find other places. Everything from jewelry, art, sterling, furniture, etc. With items always making their way out and new items coming in, this is a fun shop to check out when in the area. Staff is friendly and helpful, parking lot available out front.”
“Wonderful place to sell/shop gently used kids items. This year, due to covid-19, it was a little different... But I was so impressed how they had all the precautions in place.There's a holiday sale coming up and I trust JBF will, again, have all the saftey precautions in place for another great round of shopping!”
“Trying on dresses with Nikolina was the highlight of my wedding dress search. Even my less vintage-inclined friends were impressed with her incredible design knowledge and the vision she cast for modifying each piece to create my own personal aesthetic. She was so fun to work with! Shopping through their selection does require some imagination, but as someone who loves envisioning possibilities, this was half of the adventure. I would highly recommend this place for anyone who wants to create a personal and unique vintage dress or revive a historical piece with sentimental value - you won't regret taking the time to imagine with Nikolina.”

2751 Winnetka Ave N, New Hope“Good prices, good finds, occasional rare items. Always a good selection of clothes. Don't miss half off on a particular color, where I cannot pass up picking up a book or two each time shopping.”
“I absolutely love this location for both purchasing and selling items. For starters the staff are amazing when it comes to helping find what is needed and welcoming you into the store. I almost did not go due to the reviews but given my past experience in a similar industry I know that when people don't get their way they try to sabotage places. I am happy I chose to go into this location. It has a wide selection of clothing and even when the staff are extremely busy they still welcome customers and help them find things when needed. While I was there someone became rude to a staff member and despite this customers attitude the staff remained professional. I will be continuing to shop at this location it is clean and a positive environment. The staff all seem to get along and work together.
When selling to the location the staff are quick and accurate with timing. I brought in multiple bins and they purchased a lot of the items and explained to me why they passed on the rest. They answered all of my questions that I asked and were very transparent about the way that they priced the items.
Don't let the negative reviews of Karen's push you away from this Once Upon a Child. This was the best experience I had at any of the locations I have been to. I almost did and I am happy that I didn't and chose to give this place a try.
