RKO

Let me first say: Rather than write four bad/indifferent reviews and one good one, I'll not name names and just say I have visited 4 other dispensaries in the area. There were several reasons why I didn't like what I will call "the others". Not all were the same, but included one or more of the following negative traits: arrogant and sometimes blatantly rude staff. Dimly lit showrooms. It's not cool, I can't see what I'm shopping for. Super fancy waiting rooms/showrooms. These come along with higher prices. Not to mention it's deuchey. Salespersons that don't listen. I am shopping for medicine, not fads. RKO was the first dispensary I stepped foot into. Honestly I was pretty anxious, not knowing what the process was or how long it might take. The bud tender on duty, Libby, made me feel very welcomed, not just to RKO, but to the whole world of dispensary shopping. She was knowledgable, kind, funny and helpful and listened to me. She provided appropriate suggestions for possible solutions. After that first visit, I knew I'd be back. I just had to go see what the others had to offer. Unlike the others, RKO has a very unassuming show room. It's nice, but humble. And well lit. I feel like this is why RKO's prices are better than the others. They clearly care far more about finding their customers the right quality medicine than they do impressing you with fancy leather couches in the waiting area and stylized displays with "cool" LED lights. RKO has some of the most sought after strains in Oregon (Dogwalker, OG Kush, Super Lemon Haze, ATF just to name a couple). Their product selection has grown exponentially since my first visit some months ago. After all, that is what we are looking for: the right high-quality medicine that makes lives better. Not a flashy experience involving a neatly-trimmed beard guy. RKO is a "Mom & Pop" shop. The owner's son Russ has a proper beard. And he is a super cool cat. Like Libby, Russ is kind, helpful, funny, and knowledgeable. His dad, Rick is the same. If you're like me and you prefer local small business over huge national chains, RKO is the place for you. Like the difference between Walmart and Grocery Outlet. I avoid the large chain and purposely visit the local small shop. I prefer Super Burrito over Taco Bell. WC Winks Hardware over Home Depot. Happyrock Coffee over Starbucks. Roake's over McDonald's. And Gramma's Corner over Shari's. That's what RKO is to me. The local corner shop where they know my name and are always glad I came. I rarely visit any other dispensary and when I do, I'm always reminded why I call RKO: my dispensary.

Man the prices here are just awful for Medical Patients! The quality of the flower does not match the prices they are charging at all. The concentrate prices are ridiculous too. They charge $17 more per gram than a couple of spots for the same exact cartridges! Before rec started the prices were a lot more reasonable. Seems like this is just another dispensary that has taken advantage of the rec market at the detriment of the Medical Patients that they were originally there for. I can't shop here anymore and drive past it on my way to the many other shops who still offer affordable medicine for there patients! Seriously can get same quality or better for $15-$25 cheaper per eighth at many other dispensaries!

The gentleman working today was amazing, but... this dispensary is severely lacking inventory and style... prices are somewhat astronomical, and the quality of everything I looked at was so-so... I literally purchased reluctantly today...

I bought 3 grams of Dream Lotus and I feel I paid a fair price considering the quality of the buds, and the proximity of the shop to my place. Interior was a little dark, but cool and quiet with a little sofa in the corner where one can sit and read the menu while waiting/deciding. The menu described the strains, the prices are listed on the shelves, and the THC content is listed on the Jars (and maybe the menus too). In my opinion this simple setup made information more easy to digest; and since the menu was freed up to describe each strain, it was easier to decide what I wanted to actually look at once I got up to the counter. I'm that person who's always last to decide on their entree at a restaurant, so the lack of pressure to decide quickly is always welcome, and this place seemed happy with me taking my time. The budtender was welcoming, patient, and honest about their opinions on the product. Overall a good dispensary, would shop again.

was a spot I liked to frequent a lot until last night when I started being treated like a recreational person when I'm a patient, even got charged as a rec, mentioned I'm a patient I just got a blank stare. I paid the price but in the long run my business won't be ther again.

Very knowledgeable and friendly staff - definitely worth the drive

Extremely nice owners and budtenders. Good selection for a small place

I like shopping here it is hassle free and always has what I need

I stopped in after a nice evening across the way and the two gentlemen at the counter were very helpful. I got the supplies I needed and was on my way. Good product at a good price and I appreciate the courteous service and the clean storefront. I recommend this to all my people, I will be back.

I find my self coming here more than any other place , great prices and product. would recommend.

The location is great and an easy place to make a quick stop on the way home from work. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable about the products they carry. The quality of products are very good. I like this place and recommend it to everyone I know.

I love this little local pot shop! They have done a lot recently to improve the look of the shop & they have some really cool, informed bud-tenders. I would definitely recommend RKO to friends and often do.

Not true to Leafly advertising...researched on Leafly app which said sale for $10 AFTER TAX. Get in store, $10 BEFORE TAX. ENOUGH SAID...CLASSIC BAIT AND SWITCH

Went in and bought a cartridge but it ended up not working. Went in the next day to see if I could exchange it and they told me it worked and sold me a new battery, but it still wouldn't work. Finally went if for a third time saying it didn't work and they apologized and exchanged it. Slightly frustrating that I had to go in three times but they were nice and helpful so overall a pretty good place!

Way way way astronomical prices and way too high tax at 25%

We shop at RKO often. The service is always excellent. Very friendly and imformative staff.

Nice location and knowledgeably staff. We will be back!

Stay away from the flower medical sales as they just implemented a 20% price increase for OMMP patients. No justification other than profits as the state is flooded with cheap flower. Went regularly until my visit last night when I was informed of the price increase. Will not go back.

Great selection, good prices...awesome specials! Pretty bare bones inside but hey, they just opened! The two guys working there were not fast by any means, "old guy using a computer.." His words not mine, but they were friendly and very knowledgeable! Got a free preroll for reviewing, but this review isn't influenced by that at all!

I live right up the street from them they have good customer service their product is always good and if there is a miss print on Leaf fly the price they will hold to it and give you at that price the problem is they do not update their Leaf fly products so when you go in there and you just read a bunch of stuff on here usually they don't have it so that's a problem I think

neat lil new shop with good flower!!

Rick was very pleasant and helpful. lots of great strains and very good prices. RKO is farther from my house then other dispenserys but all around makes it worth the extra trek. grabbed some strawberry cough and lovin it! definitely will be back again.

This place was amaz-balls!! Awesome greens for my mixed salad...and dressing too! 😘♻

awsome place with great product, and one of the only places to find sweet briar kush
