“If I’m going to shop for clothes, fashion avenue is definitely my first stop! They have a great selection and I love the sustainability aspect of shopping second hand. Why buy something new when you can find already produced items with tags on? The staff are friendly and I have had nothing but great experiences so far!”
“Absolutely a must-stop for a shopping spree when your child outgrows their clothing size. This store is managed so well; color-coded, generously stocked, affordably priced, friendly staff, that I do make it a priority to stop here while in the area. Speaking as someone who lives on the east side of the cities with the Woodbury/Maplewood stores, the Eden Prairie location offers a very different and superior shopping experience you will be delighted about.”
“I'm new to consignment shopping, but just 2 trips here, and I am completely hooked!! The VIBE in this place!! So. Much. FUN!! The gals working are so friendly and helpful and it is obvious that they love their work here. I will be back again, and again, and again!!! ❤️”
“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.”
“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”
“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.”
“They really get a great variety of things to browse through. Housewares are very reasonable, clothes and furniture seem a little high to me. Great place to go when you don't know what you "need" but a little retail therapy is in order!”
“Clothing mentor Eden Prairie is fantastic if you’re looking for designer stuff or want to sell come here these people are amazing ! Amazing staff! Thao and Millie are fantastic”
“My best friend and I were in the shop for the first time on Saturday the 28th of June. It’s cozy place, very nice atmosphere, I found an elephant clock, I love elephants. And my best friend Dana Marie found this book , it has designs on it. Very nice place.”
“Love this store!! Staff is friendly and helpful even when it’s busy, and I’m always able to get everything I need- they always have a great selection of clothes and shoes ! I was able to find small boots for my kiddo and an awesome snowsuit!”
“You won’t waste your time with what they’ve selected! I’m a Pilates girl and loved their Lulu and Athleta assortment. Everything is in 10/10 condition you don’t have to worry about pilling old finds as I usually see at Plato’s Closet. A huge shout out to Sophie who assisted me with selling and also purchasing a few pieces, very courteous and helpful!!”
“Large selection of items, with fairly high turnover. I love seeing what's new each time. I've found some great things either near, or in mint condition, at decent prices.”
“Hit or miss for buying - my daughter’s size (2t) is typically picked over/not much inventory. There’s seems to be much for 18 months and younger and 4t and older. HOWEVER, I brought a bin in today not thinking I would get much $$/taken, and over half my bin was taken! Pleasantly surprised! I think the trick was, I made sure to double check for any stains/rips etc, and sorted via size as well as clothing type (sets, dresses, long sleeves, pants etc). One thing I noticed is that most of the stuff that was not taken were things from Amazon that had Chinese sizing, so I will have to remember that for next time. I think the quality was good, and they sell clothes with Chinese sizing. Don’t really have complaints!”
“Mireya was so helpful, as a man, I often find it hard to find styles in certain stores but she was very kind and encouraging to find something that really fits. Definitely will not regret my purchase !”
“Great place to shop, good place to sell.I will say, they are not very friendly and rather short with you on the phone while asking simple questions. I was repeatedly told “this was in your signed agreement” though I was never given one the day I sold. Only a receipt. Still a good and reputable place and I’ll keep coming back because it’s a great store with quality items.”
“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 ?”
“This is my number one favorite retail store in the world. They are picky on what they take, so they always have nice stuff. Prices are very reasonable. This is a large store. Stuff turns over pretty quickly, so don't wait to buy something you like or it will disappear. If my wife were to throw me out, I'd probably furnish my new place here because I've seen lots of neat furniture that would have been more expensive new than I'd be willing to pay.”
“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!”
“Love this place!! I bring in many items and they have been tagged at a good price point for the product! Love how honest they are and they have true transparency!!”
“The staff was very helpful there. They actually did a live the other night and it was awesome. The store is always clean and I love shopping at Plato’s closet. Thank you.!!!!!!!”
“this truly is a hidden gem! they were very kind & helpful in helping me pick out a ring for my fiancé. the jewely selection is soo tasteful! lots of vintage/ antique pieces which is what i was looking for. they had plenty of options within my budget and did not pressure me to spend more than planned.”
