“We discovered some real gems at the Mall of St. Paul today! The store is massive, filled with a wide variety of genuine antiques. Whether you're into vintage furniture, collectibles, or other unique finds, this place has it all. The staff is incredibly friendly, and they take great care in packaging items securely for the trip home. Just a heads-up: if you're specifically looking for coins or currency, this might not be the spot for you. But if you're an antique enthusiast, this place is a must-visit. Make sure to plan at least an hour to explore everything they have to offer.”
“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!!”
“Overall this store had a nice selection of unique pieces, but the price range may be above the average persons. The largest size that had was a vintage XL (new Large). A nice, clean shop.”
“Awesome place for affordable vintage! Plenty of stuff to look through and very kind shop owner eager to share her store. Discounts and bargains are offered on a dime! Genuinely a hidden gem of a shop. Not too sure what the hair salon in the back is about but the products smelled pleasant when I was browsing clothes nearby.”
“Great decor & always fun to search for just the right item. Staff is friendly & helpful. I always find what I need to add finishing touch to my decor. Highly recommend to anyone who wants to enjoy a treasure hunt.”
“My son and I visited here for the first time. He/him is very petite but did find something he liked. I found a perfect hat. There is soooo much in this store! 2 concerns, women sizes only go to large. And it it so tight it is completely disabled impossible!! So only 4 stars. However, we'll be going back! Cool place.”
“Lovely selection of mid to late century "antiques". Very well curated. A great eye for style. A little bit of everything: furniture, art, kitch, and clothes!”
“I’ve been going to Lula’s for a long time.Her reputation in the city is unmatched. And not just for fab party dresses but she might put out a rack out of high-waisted wide-leg 70’s pants that you can't find anywhere else or a pair of 60's virgin wranglers to go with that cashmere coat or summer crop top. It always feels fresh and new when you walk in the store and you'll feel the same when you walk out.But the best part is Hayley.How could you not like someone named after Hayley Mills.Not only does she treat every garment with care and love, she treats all her customers the same.”
“A vintage clothing store that actually has vintage clothing! I mean spearpoints, swing ties, wide lapels and dainty caps, not late 1990s tshirts that are somehow considered vintage now.Stunning selection, and everything is labeled correctly. I spent almost a half hour just looking at all their ties, and another hour just going through the men's section.Decent prices as well, they know what they have, but it's not online vintage resellers levels of inflated.Highly recommend for someone trying to get true vintage pieces”
“One of my favorite neighborhood gems. Unique selection and items are often coming and going from furniture items, to fabric and jewelry. Definitely worth stopping in, I have never left empty handed.”
“I’ve brought clothing and furniture to this location for consignment and have also purchased items here. The staff are always friendly and patient. They have a decent variety of items and clothing.”
“I donate here regularly and will continue to do so. They make it very easy, and I love their mission! Shopping here I’ve always found great finds! My kids also enjoy the toy aisle and find great things to spend their allowance money on. Staff have been kind and courteous; on the quiet side which I don’t mind at all! Recommend!”
“I've gotten very good deals on jeans in excellent condition there - it all depends which day you go. A few cool teeshirts. Very inexpensive lightbulbs. An excellent deal on a very nice laptop case.
On the other hand, the electronic hardware tends to be junk. There are a lot of battery-driven hand drills there without the batteries ..... probably because you can't buy replacement batteries for that model any longer (my experience).
Also the prices on kitchen items are too high for second-hand.
I've even seen packages of greeting cards which had writing in them!”
“They hold your bag safely behind the counter and give you a little ?️ to get it back when you leave as long as you comply with that rule and don’t steal it is a fabulous fabulous place!!!!!!!! I go there so much and it’s full of community and really kind people as long as you follow the rules and don’t give them a reason to be stern about anything. 10/10 I love it here so much can’t wait to go back i’m such a dork I tell my friends about this place all the time”
“They carry quality clothing. They are very selective on what they'll take, which is disappointing when you're trying to sell, but great when you're shopping. The employees have always been super friendly.”
“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.”
