“This place is great! I had a very simple zipper repair that I just lacked the tools for myself, and they repaired my zipper on the spot in 5 minutes for just $20. Super lovely and helpful, and they do give you a discount if you pay in cash.”
“I purchased a kat clock from the online store and realized I ordered the incorrect one. I called and they were able to cancel that order so I could order the correct one! So helpful!!”
“encore is incredibly well organized and you can find so many unique pieces. if you’re a teen/adolescent, i’d maybe recommend coming here. it’s pretty hit or miss but very doable to find banger statement pieces. additionally, encore has a discount system in which if an article of clothing has been on the racks for a certain amount of time, you can receive a 50% or 75% off. many of the pieces are carefully handpicked to ensure that customers only get the best of the best. the vintage section at the bottom of the store is totally worth checking out too even if you’re not just to vintage clothing! the owners are such lovely people and are incredibly helpful.”
“Great quality of athletic wear and super customer service. The crew at Stimulus are energetic, kind, have great humor, and they deliver on all fronts. Thank you! So glad to know them ??”
“I always feel very comfortable and welcome when I stop in to shop, the selection is amazing. They have anything you could want, I really appreciate how they have clean and well lit fitting rooms surrounded by mirrors so you can really check put your selections from all angles.”
“This was my first time there. They have some very unique clothing items and accessories. Most are out of my price range, but it was fun to see what they have. My friend bought a top that was made of a very different, very soft material.”
“Every time I need new Indian clothes for an event, NM Designs is my immediate go to! It feels like such a personal experience shopping there and you are really made to feel cared for. The owner Jean is super friendly and always knows what I’m looking for without me needing to explain everything out to her and always makes me feel amazing about my choices!”
“This Old Navy in the Mall of America felt very bougie! Not like your normal Old Navy store, this seem to be a step up and had an extensive selection. I highly recommend the store.”

“I’ve always loved Patagonia, but today my experience took that appreciation to a whole new level.
I brought my 15-year-old Patagonia messenger bag to the store to ask about repairing the worn, scratched-off reflective strips. The staff let me know that this particular part couldn’t be repaired—but then they did something truly remarkable: they offered to trade in my old bag for a brand-new one at no cost. I walked out with a replacement that was equivalent in value and quality, completely free.
This level of customer service not only impressed me—it reaffirmed our confidence in Patagonia as a brand. Just two weeks ago, my wife and I spent about $1,000 on Jackson Glacier parkas, and we weren’t entirely sure whether we had made the best decision for our budget. After today, we feel completely reassured. We know we’ll be able to enjoy our parkas for many years without worrying about unexpected issues.
Patagonia has earned our trust all over again. Outstanding products backed by outstanding service.”
“Went here with my parents to go get clothes for the first day of 7th grade
The staff was really nice
They have a lot of options for clothes pants and accessories
Got a coupon!
Will visit again”
“A bustling outpost of graphic threads, this shop is. Wall after towering wall packed with T-shirt prints from every corner of the fandom galaxy. If a traveler seeks variety, they will not leave disappointed. Browsing feels like navigating a hyperspace lane of music, anime, and nostalgia all at once.
Plenty to see, plenty to choose… A solid stop for any Padawan of pop culture.”
“Seriously probably one of my favorite shops at MOA new clothes are constantly changing alright prices and definitely stylish pretty much for all weather activities and its quality!!!”
“The girls were so nice and very helpful. You can tell they put effort into knowing their products and that’s hard to find these days. I’m extremely grateful for their guidance as a first time Athleta shopper and am impressed with their quality of the pants and shirt I purchased. Pants options are unique in the appearance and comfort combination.”
“Oh good lord, this store is so fun! My first time here. Jewelry of all colors and styles, purses, clothes, etc. Just be careful you don't spend your entire paycheck (the prices are very reasonable, but you might accidentally buy everything because this is such a fun store and I wanted it all)! The lady who was working last week when I was in was super helpful and found so many options for complementary jewelery for my new years eve look. I will be back here numerous times in the future, I'm sure.”
“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.”
“Liked the shoes here and the clothing. Got myself some nice Lacoste shoes I liked and glad I got them. Highly recommend this place for shoes and clothing any day!”
“Love this spot! I usually purchase things off of their Instagram for pick up. The staff are so kind and are always cheerful when I stop in. The selection is definitely well thought-out and well-priced. You're able to get great clothes at fabulous prices.”
“Can't say enough good things! Shopping here was an absolute pleasure. Molly is a gem, knowledgeable, helpful, not at all pushy. Their clothes are classy and fun, with lots of great accessories. One of my favorites!”
“My fiance and I came in when we were doing some exploring after picking up a prescription near by. This is such a cute clothing store. The owner makes and has very high quality clothing. He is a very nice guy whose customers are his top priority. We bought two sweatshirts and two shirts. I would recommend any Minnesotan to come check this shop out. There's tons of MN gear here. Prices are reasonable. You won't regret it. There is a brewery right next door some come get some MN gear and hit the brewery. You won't be disappointed. I absolutely love the Light purple Guitar Hoodie! Thanks again for a new comfy hoodie this season.”
“BEAUTIFUL boutique with the sweetest shop dog, Daisy! Happened to stop in after having a cup of coffee next door and can't wait to go back. Great selection of high quality clothing ranging from basics to statement pieces, and unique, versatile accessories. While not every single item came in plus sizes (as far as I could tell), there was a really wide selection of XL, 2X, and 3X items including on the sale racks. Most sale items were heavily discounted so I'd recommend stopping in even if you're on a budget. So happy to have discovered this gem!!”
“I bought 3 pairs of jeans here and needed them altered. When i got them back, 2 pairs were too short. The manager, Jake, took care of me and got me 2 new pairs. This level of customer service is something I don't find these days! Jake's service should be rewarded and praised. He has gained my loyalty to his location and will travel extra distance to shop from his store. We'll done, Jake!”
“We love going to Teeny Bee and finding the next great outfit for family photoshoots. There are always fun gender neutral patterns and colors, as well as cute dresses, comfy PJs, and dress-to-impress outfits. The owner is so kind and always has great suggestions when we need something specific for a new baby or event. We love Teeny Bee!”
“I popped into the North Loop Madewell on a mission to find jeans that actually fit me, a task I usually dread because finding the right pair has always been a struggle. I can’t remember the gentleman’s name who helped me, but he was absolutely amazing! He took the time to walk me through every style Madewell offers, set me up in a dressing room, and gave me the kind of support you usually only get from a best friend.
Shopping alone can be tough, especially when you need that second opinion, but he hyped me up, made me feel confident, and helped me find jeans that I love. Yes, they’re a bit pricey, but the quality and the level of care from employees who truly go above and beyond make them worth every penny. Honestly, the shopping experience alone made this a five-star visit!”
“Hard to beat this place when it comes to vintage in the Twin Cities. Everything in the shop is kept so fresh with the rotating vendors - Its practically a new store every time I visit.Plus the folks running the place are great”
“I love Zumiez. All of the locations I’ve been to (all around the metro area of Minneapolis-Saint Paul) have been great. If I had to pick my favorite, I think this might be it just because they have the largest selection of everything. Zumiez always hires really cool people and it’s always nice to chat with them when I’m checking out or making a return. Thanks!”
“Beautiful space. New owner is so personable. OG staff is still around and lovely new additions. Shop is well organized with an array of brands and sizing. Highly recommend consigning and shopping here!!”
“The gentleman( I wish I got his name ) who helped us last night was superb!! He made us laugh all while getting my son all geared up ! Made him feel comfortable, confident and looking like a million bucks!!
Thanks so much
Highly recommend”
“I came in to buy some shoes and the customer service was exceptional, 10/10! A young man named Zay (i believe) assisted me. He was very quick and brought out multiple sizes for me to try on without me even having to ask. The checkout process was smooth, a very young fellow named izu and i had a wonderful conversation. He also informed me about a discount that i get for being a first responder!”
“David is always here with a smile, ready to ask what’s up and make every visit a great experience. Whether it’s clothing or backpacks, he’s full of knowledge and always willing to help. I really appreciate his welcoming attitude.
Shoutout to Jasmine as well! I just met her today, and she was just as friendly—she even complimented my glasses, which honestly made my day. I left feeling a bit of joy on a day when my power was out, and that meant a lot.
And one more shoutout to Tryst! On another visit, Tryst grabbed my Powerpuff Girl backpack from the shelf and was so kind and pleasant about it. Definitely a great employee—full of kindness and consideration.”
“Kat is amazing, with an incredible talent for putting looks together. She worked FOR HOURS with me to assemble two perfect outfits, right down to the handbag. Service like this deserves TEN stars.”
