Oregon's Finest - Pearl

Yesterday was my first visit to Oregon's Finest, and I have to say, in terms of quality and selection of medicine, it 100% lives up to its name. Upon entry, my first impression was surprise at the number of people waiting in the lobby (about 10) . I was unsure at first whether I wanted to stay, and even debated coming back another time when it was less busy, but, figuring I had already made the trip, I decided I had might as well wait it out. I'm glad I did. Once it was my turn, I was greeted into the back by a friendly employee (a new hire, as it turns out) who was friendly and accommodating. Any questions I had he was happy to answer and fielded adequately, but, to be perfectly honest, not too many questions were all that necessary as the product speaks volumes and trichome-crystal-clear for itself. My goodness. Let me be clear -- I have been perfectly content and satisfied with the quality of meds I have been receiving up to this point from the other dispensaries I have regularly been frequenting -- but the quality exuding from this establishment is truly the measure from which other dispensaries around town (probably even the region) should be attempting to emulate. The buds were soft, well manicured, fresh, healthy, and smelled absolutely delicious. I would love to learn more about the growing techniques employed by the vendors stocking these shelves. You can tell even by the aroma alone these growers are doing it right, and better, than their competition. Also nice is the fact they stock the medicine in glass jars on shelves much like a retail product that is accessible to the consumer. In other dispensaries I've gone to, I've always felt needy asking the employees to pull out jar after jar of the different strains I wanted to take a closer look, even if they were very nice about it. Not here. The bud is just sitting on a shelf waiting for you to open up and appreciate. (I also noticed they provide coffee beans to cleanse the palette, which is a nice touch.) As is the quality, so too is the selection. They have a great variety of Indica, Sativas, and Hybrids to choose from, with familiar strains and more exotic strains both in stock. (They also carried strains high in CBD too, which gave them extra bonus points in my mind). I asked and it seems as though there is usually a rotating stock of new strains, but also some staples they usually try to keep around, which, from a consumer standpoint, I appreciate and consider to be a good approach. The fact is, while there are a few things I would consider adopting or doing differently if I were the owners, I will probably end up making this my new go-to place. And to the owners/mgmt, if they do read this: Thank you and my sincere compliments! Friendly Protip: If you have a family like I do, I would advise parking the car and taking a walk down the street to Jamison Park and letting the kids run around. When I went yesterday (~6,7 PM) they had some water fountains on that kids were able to run around and play in, so, as advised in Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, bring a towel :)

Classiest dispensary this side of New York! Vibe inside is modern, and service model is top notch. No counters between you and flower, so you can smell and explore with an employee designated to help you. Very Apple-esque, but without the crowds. Parking is a bummer, but that's the Pearl for you.

Great bud and love this place. Thank you

Stopped through here on a roadtrip for supplies and wasnt disappointed. The sign up process was quick and within minutes i was looking at the product. I picked up some Dr Who which was fantastic and got the job done every time, Citrus Sap which got me a little paranoid but tasted great and strong as hell and finnaly master kush which didnt burn that well but hit hard. Great shop cant wait to go again.

The bud tender was very helpful and answered all my questions. I was wanting to buy a vape pen, but didn't know which to get. the tender was walked me thru some of the options, and I purchased the Evolvd pen, next he helped me with a choice for my oil. I let him know what I wanted to experience, and he guided me to find an oil to fit my mood... Sweet tooth! definitely coming back! very helpful and attentive!

This place is A+++ all the way. The last time I came in, I had the best conversation with one of their budtenders—sure, about pot, but also about bands. We were laughing and having the best time, and that's what draws me back to Oregon's Finest. Such amazing customer service, so natural and friendly. And then—the product—that's a whole other bag of awesome. From quality to display, everything in the shop is so approachable and easy to find. Great prices, too. My new go-to.

If you're only going to go to one dispensary in Portland, make it this one, trust me. I have been coming here now since October and I have to say, STILL super impressed with the overall quality and service at this location. I have been to a ton of other dispensaries now and honestly have thrown away more sub par pre-rolls than I care to remember. Oregon's Finest is a unique experience and I recommend it to all my friends from out of town. You WILL pay a little more but its worth it. I see a lot of people wanting top shelf bud for bottom dollar. That's not the way it works folks. This dispensary is not a 7-11, it is a curated gallery of some of the best bud across the state. They will let you handle jars, open them and smell while you browse, it's unlike any other shop I have been to.

First time at Oregon's Finest Since I was missing my usual haunt in the Pearl I figured I would try out Oregon's Finest. Many haters for this dispensary. I however, am not one of them. I came in with an open mind and let them speak for themselves. The parking was a bit on the atrocious side. Luckily, I went right before their 10pm closure time on Saturday's so I did not have to walk too far with my back and joint issues. (No not THAT kind of joint issue!) To my surprise, the front door was actually locked! A security door! What a novel concept! I wish more dispensaries in the area did this. I was buzzed right in by a warm and welcoming blonde woman. I forgot to get her name as its something I am trying to add to my reviews so people know who to, or who not to, talk to. The front reception check in was quick and painless. However, the one complaint I had about the front portion of the building is the reception area/waiting area. They attempted to make the area feel warm by using rough wooden fascia and cowboy-ish themes. This is not normally an issue for me, but with the lighting and general layout of the front room, it felt like it was just stretching a bit far to be over the top, even in its simplicity. My other negative impression about the front room is the unused space. Clients have to wait to be served in a separate room. You could brighten up the front AND make your customers purchase times much quicker if you use one or two of those AWESOME computer screen menus for people to review while they wait in the front room for service. Do that, and your a 5 star on atmosphere. When I was brought into the salesroom, I was greeted by the lovely Kristin. This girl was an absolute dream to work with. Sweet, funny, knowledgeable, far from pushy or rude as you could get. This fact pleased me since I had started off with a bit of a harder exterior expecting the bad customer service people had experienced here before. Kristin did not bat an eye, Upbeat and fun the entire time! She was a pleasant balance between the total airheads who do too much of their own product and the elitist snobs who are worse than a group of snobby college steampunk kids. In other words, she rocked. =) The one thing that also bothered me a bit was the donation prices. Some of them are spot on with other prices around town. But, no matter how good your Girl Scout Cookies are, its not worth 260 an ounce.(I have to say the GSC is actually pretty damn good, but more on that later.) The menu is on the wall on amazing computer wall screens with prices and other info you may want on the items. This feature was brilliant IMO. Sadly, they had run out of the Doc Ault's tincture I wanted to try. So, I had to improvise a bit. I got some white lavender CO2 oil for my pen from Mount Hood Extracts (THC: 61.62%, CBD: 0.17%). I have purchased their blackberry oil before and was very pleased with it. This round is just as good. I am liking their consistency, For flowers, I threw together a multi-priced tired selection so I can experience the full quality variety a dispensary has. I went with the 260 dollar Girl Scout Cookies (From SoFresh Farms, THC 25%, CBD .1%), Blue Dream 220 dollar donation (From SoFresh Farms, THC 19.74%, CBD .08%), and the special of the day Banana OG 200 dollar donation (From Ideal Farms, THC 21.3%, CBD .4%). So far, the GSC is out of this world. Great for vaping! It's good enough I think I am going to have to write another review for the other 2 strains as this review is getting a bit hard to write! GSC is doing a great job on my spasms and nerve damage. My joints do not seem so swollen either. So, good job SoFresh farms! So overall, Oregon's Finest is not the evil place I had thought it was going to be. Maybe there is just one or two bad, moldy buds throwing off the vibe of the place? If so, they should sack them. Oregon's Finest has mass potential. As long as they keep up the customer service to the level I received and keep getting great product, they will be in my top 3 dispensaries, for sure.

I have been coming to Oregon's Finest for almost 3 years now. Just last month my back locked up from my back surgery years back and my 1st stop was to see my wonderful bud tender Selena. No matter what your needs are Selena will make your visit very helpful she knows her stuff. The Dr Who that strain is amazing. They have 2 locations one in the Pearl and their Headquarters over by the Convention center and no matter which one you go into you will find out why they are Oregon's Finest. In closing thank you all for treating me like family and also the education also. Love always. Denzel

This place has a great selection of top shelf flower. Last time I was there, I got my rec limit in Black Betty. Some staff have been more helpful than others, but everyone is friendly.

Oregon's Finest has a great vibe. It's definitely expensive, but the service and selection is worth spoiling yourself from time to time!!! I'm a patient and it was my 1st time in, my budtender was really friendly! The girl working at the front desk was really friendly and inviting even though she had a full waiting room!!!

Great place! This shop has it all along with the wonderful Selena who always has a great knowledge of product given with the truth ! I can't say enough nice things about the staff and have never had a negative visit here! Top Rated!

Finally got a chance to visit this place and pick up some Violet Delight. Location is discrete, good for walkers, less so for drivers scrambling for parking in the Pearl. The shop was well-lighted and product was displayed nicely. All of the staff were friendly and attentive. I like the secure but easy to open envelopes for flower. There was a nice selection of edibles, too.

This has been one of the nicest dispensaries we've been to, but also the most expensive. The staff is so helpful, I'd gladly spend the money again--don't get me wrong--but it seems you pay a little more for the experience. I'll go back for the rosin, at the very least.

i smoke afganny strains;only a few places even have it,the bud was fresh and the prettiest packaging ever..

I meant to write this review sooner, but then I got high (as the Afroman song goes). TL;dr great service, prices, atmosphere, and product. I work in customer service so it's nice to be taken care of after a long day and feel like you matter. When I see good customer service, I appreciate it extra. They always hook me up with an awesome deal (they get me, I wan't that beautiful intersection of quality and quantity). I liked that they had a lot of variety of high THC strains for a good price. It's not often I find headband, so I love that they had 2 different brands. If you want a super friendly, relaxed and upscale feel near downtown, check this place out. You won't regret it. but you might forget the occasional household task or two.

Excellent flowers!! Definitely some of the best I have seen in Portland. But with excellent flower comes a high price tag and their prices higher than most other dispensaries. The staff is very helpful and nice and you get a very hands on experience here. Great place for top shelf flower!

I really like the set up and atmosphere as soon as you walk in the door felt like a classy business and not just a pot store the staff is friendly and very informative, I like the different aproach to customers and message you guys are sending. if I have any pointers it would be don't change anything! Shout out to Ben, thanks man.

Good location and vibe, wide range of products. Stock of CO2 extract cartridges were very limited when I visited, so I will call ahead next time. I prefer there Location on the east side.

Long wait for quality meds. Price/quality ratio is balanced, yet can leave you sitting in chairs for over an hour to get it. Well manicured buds, for a hefty price. $16/gram. All flower is 2 dollars cheaper for med users. Preroll prices have been raised in 2 dollar incruments, 2 times in the last month. I would not recommend this shop. Staff Is friendly, pricing is not.

Oregon's finest is a top notch shop and will continue to help set the pace of the ever growing cannabis industry in Oregon! I had the privilege of working with Matt and he was awesome and very informative, I appreciate the educate and elevate mentality that he shared with me. Keep up the great work guys and stoked to see the continued success!

Had a great experience today with Chris! He really took his time in reviewing different strains and their effects, and didn't make me feel rushed at all. After perusing all the selections and settling on a couple different flowers, Chris cranked the service up to 11 and rolled a tight little joint for when I got home. Thanks dude! I'll definitely be back :D

Matt was exceptional. He was very knowledgeable and super friendly. The gentleman running the front of the store was very kind and helpful as well. I will definitely be returning!

I've been a grower and patient for a very long time and would be incredibly honored to get my flowers on the shelf at OF. I don't usually leave reviews and I'm personally not a fan of leafly. That being said last time I went to OF they asked me to leave a review and I felt I owed it to them for being leaders in the cannabis industry. From a patient/growers perspective these guys are the ONLY dispensary in town that is doing things right. I read some of these recent haters reviews talking about high donation prices and greed. Fact is their prices aren't even that high. I've seen higher and the same all over town but the quality wasn't there and when asked about how it was grown usually they can't answer or they feed you some its all organic BS. Yeah right! My guess is OF makes less than any other dispensary in Oregon. They don't buy from anyone who rolls in off the street because they have some "good weed". These guys are about developing relationships with good growers and pushing them to bring the best product to the shelf. Unlike the rest of dispensaries who just want to pay growers as little as possible and make more money. Funny thing is OF doesn't even set the prices! They let their growers set them and they only take a 25% cut! Are you kidding me??? Greedy? I think not. From a patients perspective these guys are going above and beyond to bring the grower to the patient by requiring full transparency from their growers and then sharing this info with their patients. I love OF, I love the Staff, I love the look and vibe as soon as I walk through the door. My message to the OF crew would be; F the haters, don't change a thing, keep doing you! You truly are Oregons Finest! My message to the haters would be; if you want cheap commercial outdoor weed go somewhere else. If you want quality dank for cheap, GROW YOUR OWN! You will see that true quality cannabis doesn't come cheap.
