This is such a darling store! I'd been in a few times before, and when my friend came to town for a…read morethrifting weekend, I knew this had to be on the list. I'd classify this as more gift shop / boutique vibes than a true thrifting experience: they have a bunch of darling local or handmade goodies that are perfect for gifting. I always find things I love here - I bought some felted flowers last time! They also have secondhand clothing in the back half of the store, many with a vintage vibe, very well curated. The space is bright and airy and fun to poke around! Prices are in line with what you'd expect from a gifting boutique.

In addition to second-hand, they also stock cute gift items and accessories! The perfect combo! I love places like Belle Weather where you can get an outfit for an occasion and potentially a gift, and more! They have really great annual sidewalk/fill-a-bag sales and a great exchange policy if something doesn't fit right! Parking in this area is also really easy and accessible!

Customer Service was outstanding, as Carolyn was so helpful, and two other staffers (whose names I didn't get) were incredibly kind and gave us recommendations about local places to eat. They had some truly humorous items in the store, and their buyer must have a great sense of humor. Enjoyed the number of gift items to pick from.

Prices are a bit high on something's but everything is really cute! For sure worth checking out. I generally shop here for gifts or small trinkets, like blind boxes. Staff were really nice and friendly. Parking can be tough in this area and you have to follow the signs as it's mostly 1hr parking on the street.

I've passed this Patina so many times traveling through St. Paul. I've have wanted to check it but…read moreparking is extremely difficult in this ever busy area. We were finally able to get around to checking it out & I LOVE that when you walk in it's so bright and colorful with a plethora of items. Makes me so happy. This location is 2 floors of shopping. We didn't get down to the basement but the main floor had enough going on for me. If you never been to Patina, they sell home decor, gifts and such. The store is pretty randomly organized but in a cool look at everything way. Like you can be looking at display that's different pink items, or Mn themed or food themed. It is on the expensive side but overall good quality stuff.

I have lived in the Twin Cities since 2000, and loved loved Patina when it opened. Their buyers…read morehave been excellent in their selection of highly creative, wonderfully and uniquely patterned-colored-textured-designed products. Just walking in was an exhilarating experience. The last six years we have spent more time in Florida and I had not been in a Patina store all that time. Yes, it is beautiful colorful fun and everything is displayed so perfectly. But the price points have SOARED and the uniqueness/quirkiness/extra special FUN has dropped considerably. The cards are lovely but not outstanding. Text is minimal. The entire store is more monochromatic in terms of product designs/ concepts/unique creativity. The buyers are good but not excitingly wonderful anymore. There was no service at the St Paul Highland store. A tall gentleman was aloof, just "there" to check out... Sad.

Such a joy every time I pop in here. Truly one of few places that is eclectic and filled with…read morelittle treasures without being completely overwhelming or plagued with funky smells. The space is organized in a way that feels inviting and homey. The owner has always got a pot of coffee for guests and a cute little selection of mugs to drink from as you browse! She also makes some of the things in the shop, lamp shades and hats and maybe other things I don't know about. Very crafty lady, reflected in the curation of the shop itself. Largely decor/dish type items here but there's also some odds and ends you could grab for your own projects, like 25¢ old keys. I usually come away from here with just one treasure because they do have vintage rather than thrift prices. For example today I got a tea light holder with 3 hanging glass baskets for $26. I think that's pretty fair in this economy though, especially for a small business as lovely as this one.

I'm gonna let the photos speak on this one...E's is a PARADISE. Seriously such a hidden gem!…read more My friend and I stumbled upon it during a thrifting weekend, and I think it was my biggest score of the weekend. First of all, I LOVE that the store is still owned and operated by E themselves. Amazing! They were at the cashier stand both times I came in. Second, I LOVE that this is a house outfitted to be a shop! It's sooo magical to see everything organized by theme or color coordination while wandering through the different rooms. Vintage kitchen goodies in the vintage kitchen?! Say less. Third, the prices are quite reasonable for the amazing quality and uniqueness!! It's such a well-curated shop, and deals around every corner. I got a bunch of stuff my first stop in, from macrame plant holders to art to bowls. I feasted my eyes on a vintage leather coffee table ($200) that I wanted for my space, and when I called a few weeks later, E confirmed it was still there so I came and got it. It's now one of my favorite pieces in my living room! I could come here every weekend (and find more to buy each time). I can't recommend this shop enough!

Um...WHOA?! I've…read moreheard about this store from friends before, but thought it was just a fancy menswear store. Well boy, was I wrong. I stopped in a few days before Christmas, and I actually had a few things yet I wanted to get my grandpa, so this worked out great. At the entrance - and throughout the store - I found free hot coffee, tea, refreshments, cookies, and treats. Maybe it's just a holiday thing but I loved the hospitality. The space is HUGE - so much more than clothes! I had no idea. They have: - books and coffee table books - a whole room dedicated to perfume/cologne and scents - a whole area for cocktail-related gifts - home decor, tableware, and interior decor items - kitschy smaller giftables that were organized by theme (work/office, hosting, etc.) - menswear and womenswear - jewelry - candles - and so much more! I genuinely believe you can walk in here and be sure to find something for anyone on your gifting list. The service was incredible: lots of welcomes and greetings, and staff there to help you if you need it. Oh, they even have a room you can reserve while shopping?! FANCY!

I am part of a large, semi-formal wedding in Atlanta. The function is laden with "pomp and…read morecircumstance" that might give me hives. However, a close friend is diving in for his third, and I applaud his happiness. I won't wear a tuxedo, but I needed to have a suit made that would make the bride and the 400 attendees comfortable. The bride already told me not to don a fedora or pink sneakers, although I wanted to. Todd Fliginger at Martin Patrick took me under his wing. Todd is amazingly kind, helpful, and knowledgeable. He sent swatches to Milwaukee before we moved to Minneapolis. Tailors were brought in, especially the master tailor Robert, not only to measure, but also to have me try on different designers' pieces to see what would fit well. I am a difficult fit, with a body more like a penguin than a human. That's what a custom tailor in NYC told me. However, I don't nosh on Krill. Todd and Robert took hours to get a correct fit and guaranteed that I would look good. Todd even saved me several hundred dollars off the original quote. ADDENDUM: My suit arrived, and it looked amazing. A few alterations are required to ensure a perfect fit, but that's it. I had a suit made on Savile Row in London that cost more than three times this suit's price, and it did not fit as well. This store should be on every list of Minneapolis's sightseeing highlights. It is akin to a design museum. Everything at Martin Patrick--furniture and furnishings--is for sale, and they're all amazing! Martin Patrick 3 is down-to-earth sophistication, with a NYC or Parisian vibe. Yet, the staff is Midwest empathetic. It is a Minneapolis treasure, as is Todd. I might not be looking forward to this wedding, but at least I know I will look my best.

There was plenty of parking on a Sunday morning. I parked fairly close to the main doors and walked in. The shoe department was staring at me. The main reason why I am not a huge fan of Marshalls is due to the lack of size 11 women's shoes. I saw a cool pair of grey Converse sneakers. They weren't in my size. Frankly, I couldn't find my size in any women's shoe style. The good news is that the other departments made up for this deficiency. I loved the luggage section where I was impressed at how light luggage is becoming. My current piece of luggage seems archaic compared to the ones that I was looking at. The women's clothing section was good. I liked the variety and size organization. The prices were decent, too. This store is a Marshalls-HomeGoods combo. It means that you can shop at both stores without setting foot outside to go into the other store. It's convenient and cool. The washrooms are in the far left corner of Marshalls. The women's was roomy and clean. Marshalls is growing on me. It simply needs larger women's shoe sizes to make me a happy camper. (97)

I typically do not spend the time to complain like this although I wanted to share our experience…read morewith Al your authorized seller for umbrellas. To start this umbrella is exactly what we are looking for. We wanted to measure to make sure prior to spending that much on an umbrella that it would work in a specific area of our patio. Al was fine until I mentioned that I had to think about it as well as possibly do some homework! It was at that moment Al became obnoxious and outright condescending towards me and technically called me a liar as he said I was not serious about the purchase. He then stated that I wasted his time! So, you know this was one of the most embarrassing interactions that I have ever encountered with any sales person in my 52 years of existence. I was with my fiancée and future in-laws and they could not believe the way Al was talking to me. There was even another patron at the event that walked by and said to me " do need me to help drag you out of this ? Seems a little heated!" This experience reminded me of someone trying to sell a fake Rolex in front of a gas station.

Reading some of these reviews make me think that these customers really got what they deserved…read more "ANY" person in this world who as dumb as these people that don't have enough common sense to close an umbrella when not in use is just plain "STUPID", they have never seen in movie when people have a personal umbrella where a storm would blow a umbrella an even blow the person and maybe a hat, just a bunch of clueless dumb ass young people. Now my review: my wife and I purchased our umbrella 12 years ago And it has served us well, we have it weighed down with 2'x2' square 1/2" thick porcelain tiles allowing us to use the area underneath, not like one reviewer's comment using sand bags. Our canvas covers have finally deteriorated enough to purchase new. I gave 4 stars currently because I haven't purchased and replaced new covers as of yet. I always take reviews by the source and comments and figure most are just dumb people who want to blame someone for their stupidity.
