Neighborhood Shopping
Why let some of the best little shops go undiscovered? Grab a coffee and spend the afternoon exploring Minneapolis's unique shopping neighborhoods, each distinct in selection and style.
Linden Hills
Stroll around quaint Linden Hills, just blocks from Lake Harriet, and stop in The Garden Sampler for great gifts and the eclectic RickRack for home and jewelry. Sample teas at Coffee & Tea Ltd. and stock up on vino at France 44.
Lake Street
Variety is the spice of life. Nowhere is that more true than on Lake Street, a historic thoroughfare now growing again with ethnic markets, hip shops and unexpected boutiques. Ingebretson's offers a step into Scandinavia while the Midtown Global Market takes you on a world tour of flavors and style.
Franklin Avenue
Eclectic as it is long, Franklin Avenue is home to the funky boutique Patina on its west end. Go east and you'll find Ancient Traders Gallery, Northland Native American Products, Franklin Art Works and Two Rivers Gallery. Make sure to grab a pastry at Franklin Street Bakery.
Grand Avenue
Saint Paul's Grand Avenue is a 26-block-long stretch of big-name retail bliss, from Restoration Hardware and Pottery Barn to J. Crew. Even better, it's home to boutiques and local legends like the Bibelot and Cooks of Crocus Hill.
NE Central Avenue
Steeped in immigrant heritage with a thriving arts district, Northeast Minneapolis offers a unique mix of markets, boutiques and galleries. From the cheese selection (500 varieties!) at Surdyk's to the pottery shops on 13th Avenue, Northeast is an all-day shopping destination.
