Great shop! Don’t let the outside fool you, this place is HUGE inside! Lots of little trinkets and things to keep you busy for hours!

Oh, junket… you cute little charmer, you! I stumbled across junket months ago. When you see a giant sign that says«Vintage Shops This Way — » you whip your car around and explore! They have anything you could ever dream of. Need funky jewelry, got it! Need vintage kitchenware, got it! Need paperclips, got it! Need a bunch of baby blocks, got it! You get the point. I’ve since been in lots of times and it never lets me down. I’m a sucker for good customer service, and this place has got it! Every staff I have encountered there has been friendly. I love how community based they are-hosting craft classes, neighborhood night market, and simply sharing about the other shops on the Minnehaha Mile. Literally everything about them is nice. I think that their reaction post to a negative review on here well-represents what they are about… customer satisfaction!

Great shop! I was heading back to Dallas and had some time to kill so I decided to check it out. They had lots of great and unique items, great place to find a gift and the staff was very friendly! Will visit again when I am in MN. Bonus– it not far from a great bakery– A Bakers Wife.

Very cute, kitschy joint! I was looking for a glass orange juicer and I knew I’d find one, I bought 2 that day! If you’re looking for unique gifts and vintage ones at that this is your place!!!

Loved it! So much to go through… bits and baubles in the basement to repurposed items upstairs. I found some great Montgomery Ward catalog pages and odd kitchen ware! Definitely stopping back here! Free coffee with fun stuff.

I have been frequenting this store since it was open every other weekend. Now it is open practically every day. Best for the collector, crafter, this story has everything from vintage buttons, maps, spools, little odds and ends. They have little classes from time to time hosted by local artist and I recommended a friend to attend one on how to open and run your own Etsy shop that she found really helpful for a small investment of $ 25. I myself have bought a couple things from here most notably a little wooden game table(square wood table that opens up to seat about 8 with a hidden velvet lined storage in the middle for little old ladies to store their game piece(or drugs, who knows) for 30 whole dollars. When the table didn’t fit into my rinky-dink Corolla, the lovely owner of the shop had a shop help drive it over to my place after hours and help me move into my uptown apartment. Totally not within their job description but so appreciated — that’s service!

Ugh this place is so cool. They have both repurposed junk and junk that you can repurpose. I think it’d be pretty safe to come here looking for sometime specific for a project, as well as to just gather inspiration. There’s tons to look at, but the store doesn’t feel stuffed or overwhelming. This place is more about«stuff» than furniture. From craft supplies, clothing, books, tools, kitchen supplies, musical instruments, maps, etc. Nothing seemed extraordinarily priced, as can be at other thrift-y, consignment-y shops. Don’t forget to go down in the basement!

I «collect» a lot little trinkets, but that is nothing compared to the organization of potential chaos that is Junket. Are you interested in tiny charms? There is a drawer full of them. Wooden thread spools? No problem, there’s the bin over there. Some of their offerings are downright junky, but there’s plenty to keep you entertained. They also offer workshops to recycle existing materials you’d have otherwise thrown out; for the holidays they taught you how to make gift bows out of newspapers. To create something out of nothing is a great concept and a great way to think of ways to showcase what they’re selling. I’m mentally in a space where I’m more interested in vintage shopping for home furnishing and furniture, so Junket is not really my speed. But this place is definitely for those who like crafting, being creative with«junk», or like perusing through bins and drawers of tiny treasures.

This is a cool neighborhood spot that is well-organized & full of potential treasures. If you venture in, be prepared to be overwhelmed by a TON, and I mean a TON of items, all pretty well organized, but very random nonetheless. For me it was sensory overload that took me out of the mood to shop, but my husband enjoyed the experience. There are a lot of local artisans being featured here & opportunities to grab business cards amongst various displays. Prices seemed fair considering much of what they sell is handmade, one-of-a-kind or vintage/antique/collectible.

One of my favorite things to do in the whole wide world is thrift/vintage shopping! This place is AMAZING! When you get so many neat little trinkets and treasures together in one place it’s really difficult to keep any sort of organization. This place has figured it out. You could honestly walk in and say something specific of what you are looking for and through what appears to be some chaotic organization, they will find it for you. They have everything! I had so many pinterest crafts come to mind as I walked through the shop. They have two levels FULL of neat stuff ranging from furniture, to maps, to assorted board game pieces. It’s so neat! I will definitely be back… Oh! And I forgot to mention, when I walked in the door I was greeted with donut holes and coffee… ummmm name another store like this. yeah, I couldn’t think of one either!

And I’m coming here every time it’s open… I discovered Junket when it first began and love seeing how much it has grown. Some weekends they have sales on the entire store, so watch their website and Facebook for notifications of this. There selection changes often making it easy to be a repeat customer! Everyone is very helpful and I always leave inspired to add some creativity to my own place.

Not sure if my last review posted. Out of all the vintage shops on Minnehaha Avenue in Mpls, this is the one I will not be returning to. A girlfriend and I were enjoying a mom’s day out with lunch and shopping. From the moment we stepped into Junkets door, we were followed. Yes, followed. As though we were common thieves. Really? This isn’t New York(where shopkeepers do follow customers around– I know as I lived there). As a collector, I will take my money to the other local stores with a much friendlier and laid back vibe and encourage my collector friends to do the same.

What’s not to love? A funky friendly local store filled with all kinds of «stuff»…and I do mean ALL kinds. Some junk. Some treasures. Unique gifts. Local art and crafts. Odd and ends and quirkery abounding. You can even buy old fortunes from long gone cookies. Where else would you find that? Or a styrofoam wig head full of promotional stick pins? A lamp made out of Kodachrome slides? Only here my friend. Only here. One could spend days and days in here strolling down memory lane or letting your imagination run wild with all the decorating and collecting possibilities. I love Junket and try to stop whenever I’m back home in Minneapolis.

This is the kind of place that’s full of treasure you never knew you needed. It’s a mishmash of old junk, but I mean that in the best possible way. Drawers full of sewing notions, old postcards, cool marquee letters… I won’t go on, but damn near anything you want? They have. There are also some neat items made from recycled materials by local artists which were fun to see. The only downside is that it’s always busy(which makes me so happy for the owner and vendors!) so space is tight. I would suggest leaving strollers in the car and not carrying your biggest oversize purse. But everyone I’ve bumped into there-literally-is so nice that the close quarters aren’t really an issue.

Great little shop! My husband, baby son, and I ventured in when they had recently opened– sweet spot. One thing I noted was the supplies of potential vintage re-use-its. Buttons, yarns, crafty goodness. We picked up a great xylophone toy for our son that he loves, and plan on returning soon.

Great little vintage store in a fun neighborhood. Some great finds, but felt understocked. Lots of paper goods — drawers full of old maps, old book pages with new prints on them, lots and lots of smalls. Only a few substantial furniture pieces, and nothing really noteworthy. Overall, I liked the style, the layout, and the person working was super friendly. I’ll be back — hoping they are stocked to the brim!

Such a great store, and a wonderful addition to the Longfellow neighborhood. Give yourself some time to see all that is there!
