More dispensaries should be like Thurman Power Plant.
It's got the quality of the arty bud shops with the prices and feel of a neighborhood dispensary. It's a friendly, welcoming place with great products at a reasonable price.
All in a relaxed (but masked, of course) atmosphere that's safe -- and with no stupid ropes.
The highlights:
A great product selection - The range -- waxes, sugars, flower, keif, edibles, drinkables -- is broad but not overwhelming. The manager who stocks this place has really curated the offerings -- new strains and stuff pops up all the time, and you can find a good high at nearly every price point.
You'll see a lot of well-known brands, but Power Plant offers a healthy dose of merch from small, lesser-known companies at great prices.
Take the cart selection. I got a 1g cart of Lemon Haze (by Day Tripper) for $24, and got a sublime cart of ATF (by Select) for $22. Both had great flavor, taste, and highs.
Prices: Lots to like. Taxes are included in posted prices, and even their low- and mid-tier prices are lower or the same as the big chain dispensaries.
And the quality is wonderful -- even their $5/gram flower, the $11 keif, the $20/1g carts. the $6 gummies, $15 sizzurps, etc.
Customer service: The budtenders are friendly, knowledgeable about their product. And helpful.
In a lot of the dispensaries now, everything is locked down. And if you don't know what you want when you get in there, you're SOOL.
Not here. If you want to smell a strain, they whip out this cool little fan, pop it over the sample jar, and offer you a whiff. It's a customer friendly and safe way to do it, and thoughtful, too.
'Thoughtful' and 'dispensary' usually don't go together, but it does here. Last example: I was chatting with the manager about carts, and mentioned one of mine leaked and messed up a battery. When I checked out, he GAVE me this new Dr. Jolly's battery! Super-cool.
I shop all around the city, but Power Plant's is becoming my favorite dispensary.

Shopping in general can sometimes be overwhelming and trigger anxiety but If you’re one who looks for good vibes and a stress free atmosphere while you shop and spend your hard earned money then this shop is the shop for you!
The employees are super nice & don’t make you feel bad when you can’t make up your mind.
They employees conversate and make you feel a friendly connection every time.
I personally recommend this place
&believe it should be everyone’s favorite shop
& I strongly believe that the budtender Maria is Awesome and probably the best budtender out in the Pacific Northwest. While shopping and browsing the store I noticed She had a strong ability to relate to all her customers and can get them to smile and laugh with ease. I would seriously consider promoting her and making sure she remains a pivotal piece in the company moving forward :)

drove by and say how nice it looked !!!! it was to early to get weed....
One of if not THE BEST cannabis shop in NW Portland! Everyone is super friendly and the staff always makes me feel incredibly welcome when you walk in the door. The budtenders are very knowledgeable and always recommend products to try without being pushy. The prices are above average but the quality of the cannabis is definitely worth it. Definitely a 10/10
this is my favorite dispensary in nw portland. great prices, a daily happy hour deal, friendly staff, always getting in lots of new flower.

I visited the shop because their items seemed affordable, and when I arrived the young chud behind the counter informed me that they actually don’t have $5 joint packs and that was just a clerical error. Great first experience…likely won’t be returning.
Best shop in town but don’t tell anyone 🤫

I love the Shark Store!!! They have the biggest and best variety of pre-rolls. The flower is quality buds. Everyone is friendly
I just picked up an order placed online through Leafly. Every part of the process was perfect. On top of everything I got 10% off for Happy Hour.
they made a customer

I ordered a specific flower and Leafly said that it was in stock. It had been discontinued a couple of months ago according to the shop. I was given excellent service and love what I purchased. However, there needs to be better coordination of inventory

Wendy was my bud tender yesterday. She was so knowledgeable and nice. It was also cool to see a woman closer to my own age behind the counter. I have nothing against younger people, but it helps to talk to someone your own age about certain things. I really liked the Blue Tahoe OG and Trainwreck that I purchased. My only question is why you have to put the buds in a tiny ziploc baggie before putting it in a plastic container. Maybe it's just me, I don't know, but that seems just a tad over-kill. It's nice that you guys are starting to have some deals for us OMMP people, now. Most of us really don't like having to pay over $50 a 1/4 oz. It was nice to find this quality of smoke for only $45 1/4 oz. Keep up the good work, Thurman Street. And that green floor is to DIE for! It always puts me in such a good mood, it's so soothing! :)

Hands down best dispensary in Portland. Meet Blake the first time i ever stopped in and I’ve been coming bck since. They carry a health variety of flower. To go with the happy energy of the bud tenders. Don’t cheat yourself treat yourself and stop in and check them out on Thurman St.

Best prices in NW, awesome selection of cartridges. Love a dispensary that factors in tax on the price listed. Thank you Power Plant and your awesome team.

Great selection and price

I loved getting their $10 quarters till today. Spent $10 gave the bud tender a $50 and he refused to give me my change. No longer going to a store that robs disabled people.
