This is my local hardware store, and I love both it and the staff. Im a relatively new homeowner and an enthusiastic beginner when it comes to home improvement, and Welnas friendly staff have helped me more times than I can count. They are always willing and ready to talk through my projects, give me recommendations, or also just chat in a neighborly way. Im on first name basis with almost the whole staff after this summer of home improvements! Definitely can recommend as a trustworthy source of supplies and advice.
This location has friendly and helpful staff who are willing to step in to answer a question or let you figure things out yourself.Picking up parts here is relatively quick given that theres been plenty of parking available either out front or in the little lot around the back.
New owners have lots of changes to the store. Its going to be awesome
Very helpful even tho they didnt have 50 grit sand paper i like this place...
We live across the street and go here a lot. Super friendly and knowledgeable people, with an amazing variety of stock for a store that has such a small footprint. Things are efficiently laid out. We love you Welna II!
Great customer service, clean and well organized store
Was able to get a reel lawnmower as sharpened... For real.
Im so glad I have this in the neighborhood. Sure. Its not a big box store. There is a premium on some items. Whatever. The convenience of not having to drive and park and deal with the masses makes it worth it. COVID accomodations are working well. Granted the usual hardware store over buying cause you get all the ideas while walking through is missing but I dont know how to fix that. I have yet to ask for something within reason and them not to have it. Calling ahead to see if in stock is highly recommended. Plus if you know already what you want it can be pulled for you! Keep it local!
Excellent customer service, especially Susan!
GREAT HARDWARE STORE!!!I tend to try to support independents and smaller businesses. Welna Hardware is a wonderful source of all things hardware, as well as knowledge. They have wonderful employees who are not only extremely knowledgeable, but are also very friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to help their clients.I need to make a special mention about ARIA, an amazing young woman who really knows her stuff, especially when it comes to wall repair and painting (but her vast knowledge is not at all limited to those areas). She is always so helpful and really takes the time, and gives my issues the attention they need, to find solutions.She is a great ambassador for Welna Hardware, as are all of the employees.It is the special service that I get there from people like Aria that keeps me going back there. That, and I can almost always get what I need there.I highly recommend this hardware store!
This store deserves a one star rating for not being open when I’m off work. I love to support local businesses but I also resent that because I live a few blocks from this store I have to drive fairly far whenever I need hardware. I would even be able to go in before work if they want to keep giving their employees their evening, but right now it’s only open when I’m at home on 1 day a week and I kind of want them to close permanently so there would at least be a possibility of another store coming into the neighborhood that I could run to in the early evening if I forget something for a home project.
Love these people! Always helpful. Theyve found great ways to do business safely in the pandemic. Commited to the neighborhood.
Very helpful people.
Great little store, super convenient location, and helpful staff.There’s a lot more stuff packed in here than you’d expect. They usually have whatever I’m looking for, even when I’m pretty sure they won’t. The staff are always helpful and friendly.The prices aren’t the lowest, but it’s worth a little extra to have the convenience of a great hardware store right in your neighborhood, and to support a local business.Next time you need some hardware or home item right away, don’t waste time driving out to the giant chain store in the burbs. Give either Welna location a call — they probably have just the thing!
They wouldt Exan The Bad Soile They Sold Us Three Weeks Ago.
Great service people friendly
A gem in the neighborhood. They always work to find solutions. Fantastic help!!!!
Inside shopping now available. Very helpful, nice, personable, staff.
The most helpful retail staff Ive come into contact with. Whether its an 80¢ or 80$ purchase, they are interested in customer satisfaction
Friendly, efficient staff who are very eager to help! Every time Ive gone there theyve had what I was looking for.
These people are always helpful as well as being knowledgeable. They really try hard to help you no matter how weird a project you bring in.Its a great neighborhood hardware store that is a part of the community.
While it looked close on arrival, the employees had a table set up in the back parking lot. They assisted every customer and even had a few free plants on a first come, first serve basis
Knowledgeable and helpful staff: I regularly come in with incompletely defined problems and Welna helps me find what I need to solve it. Huge and varied selection in a small footprint (there is a basement!).
Such a great hardware shop. It may not have everything you need for a major project, but it definitely had what you need for the daily work around the house. They have super friendly and helpful staff, too!
Best local hardware store!! They have an outstanding paint section, with sample.sizes. The staff and service are exceptional. It looks small, but they have tons of backroom and basement space, and it seems like they have everything!
Welna is a true local hardware store. In addition to great deals and friendly staff, Jim (the owner) is super involved in the Seward community. Highly recommend for anything from a new key to a jar of pickles (yes, they even have pickles).
Amazing little hardware store. Somehow they have everything packed into such a tiny store. I almost always find what Im looking for. Great staff who are so friendly. You can even bring your dog inside (they always offer the dog a treat).
Friendly, knowledgeable staff.
I love all the folks at Welna II so, so much. Great service: smart, helpful, professional. Looking out for the customers and the communitys best interest. Jim remembers not just me but my mom and dad, who have only visited Minneapolis a couple of times, and always asks how all of us are doing.
Cute shop, I was just picking up my Amazon order, but might come back.
I have been a resident of this neighborhood for four years. Even when I did not live in Seward, I still found myself going out of my way for the superior customer service at this hardware store. On the rare occasion that they do not have what I need, they are frank about directing me to a location that does. They have helped talk me through several projects from decoupage of a cedar planter box, staining of a walking stick, and the carving of a book to several repairs to my car.
Great service and good selection. I also appreciate that they are a ups drop off site.
Wonderful store that Carries almost everything, and excellent customer service!
Very helpful & friendly staff. I really like that they are a UPS drop-off location, plus they sport a beautiful, native wildflower garden alongside their building.
Its a very friendly place and staff are there to help with whatever you need.
Nice. Close and convenient
Great customer services. They are very knowledgeable and helpful, they definitely know how to make your bad day into a great one. Best customer services. Prices are reasonable.
A super well stocked store and the staff knows their products. Great service. They cut glass and reglazing our broken windows for a reasonable price.
Paint department staff was patient and most helpful.
Fantastic service. So helpful. Also, its impressive the inventory they can fit in there.
Worst service as UPS Access Point. Called 3 times the same day just to make sure my package was there. The guy at the phone just sayed Hello and after me talking he just stayed in silence and then ended the call. When I tried calling back he didn´t answer the phone.
Great little 🔧 store. Great customer service.
Great neighborhood hardware store.
This is a great neighborhood store. I go here specifically because I get the help I need. The staff are great. This is what all shopping experiences should be like.
Id like to stop here ruins in a while when Im in this neighborhood I used to live closer to it and go more frequently always had great service even if it is a small place
I love this place. family owned, welcoming to all, super helpful. go here.
They are quite helpful. I am always happy when I leave the store ! I almost always get what I went there for.
-Best hardware in Minneapolis_it might be small but has everything important. keep up with the great service
Small but well stocked neighborhood hardware store. They have replacement keys, bird seed, gardening supplies, paint and a variety of other small project necessities.
Incredibly knowledgeable staff have helped me with countless projects. They really know what theyre talking about. They have given me tons of great advice that has saved me lots of money by being able to do projects myself (as an amateur DIY-er) that I at first thought could only be done by professionals.
These guys are super helpful and easy going.
Nice people. Thanks Tom for your help! 👏👏
Right when I walked in, I was quickly asked if I needed help finding anything. Several customers were also there, and they received the same great and friendly service.
Usually have what you need with great service :) lgbtq friendly
Tiny store that has everything
Nice local neighborhood hardware store. Has what you need without driving across town...
Cute
Welnas is a little slice of Small Town USA right in the middle of Minneapolis. Love it. Everyone who works here is helpful, and theyll even chat you up while you wait for them to ring up your purchases on their old-skool cash register. They sell plexiglass & will even cut it to the exact dimensions you need. Now thats service!
Great service and atmosphere. Has everything that I could need!
They need to get their hours of opening straight 😡
