Copper Pony is a gift shop with a full cafe located in Sauk Rapids.

Located in the center of Sauk Rapids, Copper Pony is more than just a gift shop, it’s an exciting destination for community gatherings.

When you walk through its welcoming doors, you’re not simply entering a store, you’re entering an environment where a carefully chosen assortment of unique goods, meets a feeling of community. Copper Pony is the ideal location whether you’re looking for unique finds to spruce up your home or the perfect present for celebrating a specific someone. 

Moving from downtown St. Cloud to Sauk Rapids in 2021, Copper Pony brought a fully functional coffee shop along with a collection of unique merchandise. Not only can customers now purchase charming home décor, but they can also enjoy a cozy meal, a cup of coffee, and the warm, welcoming atmosphere that Copper Pony radiates.

Their choice of furniture, bath and body products, and women’s clothing is inspired by the idea that a house should be an oasis of comfort and style.

The core of Copper Pony’s philosophy is community. The store, which works with nearby companies and artists, organizes monthly events as it recognizes the value of diversity.

As Paul Wellstone once said, “We all do better when we all do better.”

This dedication to community involvement has produced a warm environment where people of all backgrounds can interact and flourish.

Copper Pony invites you to experience more than just a store, it’s a celebration of design, community, and the wonderfully imperfect journey of turning houses into homes, whether you’re looking for a unique present, a delicious meal, or a hint of flair.
