As the name implies this store seems to be dedicated to the boating lifestyle or cabin you might have. You'll find lots of nautically inspired home decor and gifts for everyone. When I walked into the store I was greeted by Danielle, the owner. She couldn't have been more friendly and I loved hearing her story about how she decided to open her own shop. Retail experience seems to run in the family as her mom owns a shop in the Galleria and she also had an aunt in the business too. You'll be sure to find something here so check out this great addition to Excelsior!

ewelweed is so much more than a shop--it is truly a space for wellness, healing, learning, and…read moreconnection. From the moment you walk through the door, you can feel the care, intention, and love that has gone into creating this space. Every product is thoughtfully selected, and it is clear that the owners and shopkeepers maintain incredibly high standards for what they choose to carry. I especially appreciate their commitment to supporting small businesses, including minority-owned businesses, and curating products that align with their values of quality, integrity, and wellness. What makes Jewelweed unique is that the staff genuinely knows the products they sell because they use them themselves. Whether it's a tincture, tea, crystal, book, incense, skincare product, or wellness tool, they can speak from personal experience and offer thoughtful guidance without any pressure to buy. The ingredients are clean, the products are high quality, and I've found many of them to be more effective and longer-lasting than alternatives I've used elsewhere. The crystal and gemstone collection is especially special. Each piece is hand-selected, carefully brought back to Minnesota, and lovingly prepared before being placed in the shop. You can feel that everything here is a labor of love. Their book selection is outstanding, and their offerings of oracle decks, tarot decks, tinctures, and wellness products are among the best I've encountered. Several products I've discovered through Jewelweed have made a meaningful difference in my quality of life. What I appreciate most, however, is the people. Every shopkeeper I've met has an incredible ability to hold space for others. Whether you're seeking guidance, moving through a difficult season, celebrating something joyful, or simply curious, you'll be met with kindness, respect, and genuine care. There is no judgment, no pressure, and no expectation that you subscribe to any particular spiritual or religious belief. You never have to worry about asking the "wrong" question or feeling out of place. The events and classes they offer are equally thoughtful, intentional, and beautifully curated. Everything about Jewelweed reflects a deep commitment to community, education, wellness, and authentic human connection. If you're looking for a place where you can explore, learn, heal, and feel welcomed exactly as you are, I cannot recommend Jewelweed highly enough.

We wanted to exchange them for different sizes and she said no . The 2nd time I bought 2 pieces leggings and a sweatshirt for 85.00 . My daughter didn't think it was worth that much money (and I agreed the prices are out rages ). So I wanted to return them . Oh NO we don't do returns either exchange or store credit . And of course they don't tell you that when you purchase the items only when come and they say "There is a sign right there". I will never ever step foot in that store again . And like I said the clothes aren't worth the price they are charging . Ridiculous and a waste of my time .

My daughters one year pictures were done in their tutu and matching top and the one year crown... one of my favorite pictures! Fast forward 3 years to the birth of my son and I loved being able to buy things that they can both match in without either one looking girly or like a boy. I love the uniqueness in the design of the clothes. Unfortunately, we moved 1000 miles away, but thankful I can still shop online. I also am super grateful for Karen at the Wayzata location, she is always friendly and goes above and beyond to help us! If you're looking for a special gift, I highly suggest Oh Baby!

It's difficult to see the screen unless you're standing right by the cashier, so I ended up looking at the menu online while waiting to order. I ordered the small oat milk Apple Pie Latte, and it was delicious! It had a subtle apple pie flavor, and the dried apple garnish on top was such a cute touch. I also tried the Honey Granola with yogurt, which made for a light and satisfying breakfast. The café was clean, spacious, and made for a great place to sit down, enjoy my coffee, and get some reading done. The staff was friendly, the service was quick, and the parking lot was convenient and easily accessible. Overall, I had a great experience and would definitely stop by again!

This place is actually a decent size but due to its popularity, it felt very crowded! So possibly plan on taking your drink to go. The service here was good and the man who made my drink was nothing short of a sweetheart! I got the raspberry cheesecake latte with oatmilk. This drink was over $11!! Not what I was expecting! Definitely the most expensive coffee I have gotten! Their menu seemed to have lots of unique and tasty coffees and items! I'd love to come back and try more. Despite the cost, the coffee was very tasty! In my opinion, this is one of the best coffee shops in the twin cities!
