When I couldn't find any of my acceptable strains at my normal shops, I searched on Leafly. Lo and behold, Archive was close by and had my *All Time Favorite* OG strain! Put in an online order, hopped in the car, and was notified my order was ready before was halfway there. Clean shop with some happy live plants growing, and good security. Staff was super friendly and they had great music playing (that wasn't so loud I couldn't hear!).
Archive is the GOAT. I've been going to dispensaries and shops for some time. They are HANDS down, the most polite, very knowledgeable and focus on customer service. Love all the staff.

Only place I shop for quality products and service.
Always the bestest
I absolutely LOVE Archive. I love the staff. Archive has the best products around. My favorite is the amazing top shelf flower always on deck. Highly recommend!!
Fairly expensive but they have really good products. Everything seems high quality.
Live the people, live the quality product, wish there was more room to move around.
Archive is the best dispensary, hands down, in all of Portland. The flower is top shelf, they have an excellent selection of edibles & other products. The budtenders are rock stars, tell them any concern & they have help for ya.

Flew 3000 miles to experience the Archive - Moonbow legacy and can't stop thinking about going back! Regret not scooping the IreneZ because whatever Zkittlez cut Archive has is beyond legit! Sprite lemon line GAS! Scooped the Moonbow 112 which was INSANE resinous! All of the flower I had to smoke on the go so I couldnt appreciate it to much visually! But it was a Nice creamy gas with long lasting Z notes! The heavy gas lifting up the delicate sour/floral notes! The true show stopper was the DELICIOUS (OISHII VARIANT) WOW! THIS GIRL BLEW THE SOCKS OFF THE HOMIES! Literally had a homegirl cough a lung off 1 puff of a gram packed backwood of this! THE Z IS HEAVY AND THE GAS IS HEAVY! We were all from different cities (Chicago, Bay Area, Miami, Tallahassee) and were all blown away by how heavy they flavor was! Breaking up the delicious wasnt as resinous as the Moonbow 112 but it performed crazy in a backwood! I scooped the Moon Beam but didnt have enough time to try it! Smell wasn't heavy Z tho so wish I wouldve scooped the IreneZ although I didnt get a chance to smell it (felt a bit rushed). THE ROSIN: INSANE! Been smoking Rosin for over 8 years now and I have to say this is some of the best grown x extracted x pressed synergy Ive experienced! Scooped the Moonbox 112 and the Oishii! Both 140u-90u and both were top tier! One thing I noticed about both Rosin is that they generate above average vapor in the rig!! The greatness just keeps burning with intense flavor....AND POTENCY! Moonbow 112 was phenomenal! BUT THAT OISHII!!!!! WOW!! NOT ONLY MORE FLAVORFUL BUT ALSO MORE POTENT!!! CLEAN LEMON GAS TASTE THAT LINGERS! HANGTIME LIKE JORDAN! One dab of Oishii and I just laid down in euphoria! Slow clap! We all know THC% mean nothing but lately ive been on Jungle Boys Jam that hit the low 80% and both of these at 74.3% (MOONBOW) and 76.4% (OISHII) SMACK CRAZIER! To summerize: I CANT WAIT TO GO BACK TO PDX JUST TO HIT ARCHIVE! FINGER CROSSED THEY HAVE SOME LEMON PEEL NEXT TIME I GO! MUCH LOVE! KEEP KILLIN IT YALL! SHOUT OUT DONALD! GREAT SERVICE AND RECS!!

I've been everywhere and Archive is one of the best places to get top end flower. The Flower is wonderful and varied, great farms. When I was broke I'd come for the best BANG for my BUCK. And when I'm flush I come here to feel SATISFIED with my purchases. The crew is INFORMED and have good HONEST opinions about the product. I don't feel like I'm being sold something just to move it. Which I deeply, deeply APPRECIATE! I read some reviews about bulk and whatnot but I have not experienced any of that. Mayhap that was before they changed their policies? I find their rewards program to be pretty good too. If you want GOOD and DELICIOUS on the regular, go to ARCHIVE.
Archive is the best dispensary if your priority is quality products. By far the best buds and oil you will find in a retail shop and their clones/genetics can't be beat. The budtenders treat you like you're a friend and not just another customer (Morgan is a ROCKSTAR and always such a sweetheart!!) and "know their stuff". Highly recommend this place! (as long as you're not looking for budget crap weed)

I've purchased flower from Archive twice now. Their flower is the best quality I've found in Portland, nice sized, well trimmed buds that are dried perfectly (most of the flower I've been getting is over dried and harsh). This is my new go-to dispensary.

I want to personally acknowledge Morgan because she had surprised me when I arrived by getting some GG4 from behind closed doors that is “yet to be shelved” bc staff knows it’s my favorite strain and it’s hard to find. Completely made my night! Thats customer service :) Thank you Morgan!!!

Well that last review right there is proof that not every idiot with a keyboard should be allowed to leave reviews that can impact people’s businesses or jobs. Tyrel is my favorite budtender in Portland, period. The dude knows his stuff, not just the product on the shelf, but the history, chemistry, growing, caretaking, cultivating, harvesting, extracting, and culture. And if he didn’t offer to let you stick your nose in a jar, it’s likely because your nose presented a health hazard to whoever came in after you. Budtenders are trained to serve people to the best of their ability without exposing customers to anything hazardous, so if you weren’t offered the chance to smell the weed, it’s probably because he respectfully didn’t want to draw attention to the hazard you presented to the product. Check your hygiene before you make a baseless complaint. It really grinds my gears when ignorant customers call out specific employees who not only are just doing their jobs, but doing them well.
Archive is great because it’s employees are great, and to me, Tyrel is at the top of that list. Get to know your budtenders and they’ll get to know you. Ty knows me by name, knows what I like, and has gone above and beyond on multiple different occasions to make sure his customers are taken care of. When my brother came in and bought clones, I told him he should only go in if Ty is working. To prove my point Tyrel spent almost his entire lunch break answering my bro’s questions and offering him advice and tips OFF THE CLOCK! That’s actual customer service from someone who cares about what they selling and Archive caught an actual gem when they hired this guy.

The variety of product is numerous with some of the better strains available.
Most of the reviews of the place are all good but I had a slight problem so I am a little apprehensive of returning. I checked the stats and price before I went there, but was charged 20 bucks above advertised price. It appears that I paid the taxes on the product because the price was not adjusted even though I have a medical card which was entered into system.
I wouldn't have thought this strange and wrote this off as a simple slip at the final transaction but a similar situation happened in the recent past at a different dispensery.
Not sure if the medical cards are worth having.
Sorry for the negativity.
Dispensary response:
Thank you very much for your feedback! In the future if you ever feel that something was missed or not adjusted on your account/transaction, please bring this to our attention, sometimes a small system (or person) error can change a transaction, and we are more than happy to rectify those situations if possible! Cheers!

Cool spot, great selection of flower, but mixed experiences with staff over the years caused me to shop elsewhere. Recently went back and it was fine so I'll probably shop again. The house Archive brand flower is always fire.

This is the best dispensary I’ve ever been to! Came here from Houston, I travel a lot & I think their flower is better than Cali, Colorado & Nevada’s no doubt!
This is the bet place in Portland to get clones. Their flower is all high quality and strains like Golden Pineapple, Designer Runtz and their Platinum Girl Schoot Cookies are all top of the line. The place is not the place for getting cheap lower quality flower. The money is worth it I have never had issues with any of their clones and I go their for flower even though I get a 35% discount at a friends dispensary in S. E. portland.

Merry Refer Madness Day,
Hope Ur'z was as good as our'z....
As usual at this time of year, I was looking for clones for this years outdoor grow. When I mentioned it to a great "Bud Tender" Hayden (Canna Bros, Newberg) and he sugessted that I run up to Archive Portland.
The Staff was attentive and knowledgable regarding my requirements, concerns, and most of all... my individuality (-: considering the amount of patrons given for the day.
I can honestly say that "Archive Portland" is well worth the jaunt from Newbewg and will be my "GO-TO" for clones, and as I learned... Seeds...
Very respectfully,
The Kelley's
