I signed up to Leafly specifically to leave this review.
I make the trip from Central Oregon to the city called Portland for medical reasons
every six months. It's brutal enough to leave the serenity that is Central Oregon to visit
the havoc that is Portland. My visit to Chalice Farms Powell was definitely not the "high"
point of this semi-annual trek.
After reading reviews I thought this would be the place to visit, so I dropped in on my
way back over the mountain. Nice building, great parking, ADA access, nice chat with
the very pleasant person at the front desk. Beautifully crafted fixtures and
displays...really very nice. The two guys working the counter were chatty and
informative.
My problem: the employee "assigned" to help me. What a smug, condescending,
unpleasant person. Knowledge about a product is great...until it is used to try to prove
that you are superior to someone else. Your attempt at this was all for your own head. If
you had gotten over yourself and treated me with respect I would have spent a lot more
than I did. In retrospect, I should have not spent anything. A little tip for you: your
extensive "knowledge" about product needs to be broadened a bit. Just because you
have never heard of a certain packaging method does not mean it is inferior. Do some
homework. Visit a dispensary that is not in your locale. Things are different elsewhere.
I'll try another place when I am next in Portland.

Met Brent and his partner. Very friendly, caring people. Love my flower(Mango Kush). Fantastic smell/flavor, helps my rheumatoid arthritis. Will be back to check out concentrates.

I created an account on Leafly because I wanted to write a review about this shop. The dispensary I normally go to was closed, and this spot was still open and close to my house. The people working were very nice and friendly, but they didn't seem to know much about strains.
Things I liked about Chalice;
-Beautiful setting
-Good music playing
-Receptionist was really sweet.
-Bud tenders were SO NICE!
-Good lighting
Things I didn't like about Chalice:
The flowers I purchased were already weighed out into eighths and in a container that I couldn't see into, therefor I didn't really know what I was getting.
-OVERPRICED
-Almost all the strains on their menu were sold-out.
-They were out of stock on all the cartridges I wanted.
This shop has potential. I hope they fix their inventory and pricing issues.

I'm a new cardholder, so this was my first visit to a dispensary period. It's so nice inside, and their selection and quality of meds is awesome. Plus it's really close to where I live. The staff is very friendly and helpful. They answered all my questions.

Not a bad little spot if you live near by..However sent my homegirl in to try something from Chalice farms and their weed was filled with MOLD..Cannabis Cup Winners my ass..the ONLY reason they won is because they bribed the judges with coke

Great spot for edibles. Little pricey on their flower.

It is always so refreshing to walk into a business where the owners and employees display passion and devotion to excellence in their trade. When you walk into Powell House Cannabis club it is apparent that these guys have the passion. Talking to them you realize that they are cannabis geeks of the best variety. From the friendly, knowledgeable service to the impressive amount of perfectly cured delicious flowers, many of which are done in house, these guys have all the marks of a great dispensary. There was not one jar of one single strain that I did not want to crawl into and rejoice in its deliciousness; all of them seemingly dusted by fairy dust. I always have plenty of medication so I only buy flower when I want something special and this will be the place I come next time that happens. The shop has a great feel to it , that semi-medical office look with the loving twist of cannabis culture.
In regards to their concentrate selection, they did not have too much to choose from. The BHO smelled great and was pretty standard at $25/gr donations. The one shatter that they did have was a great value, $15 and was comprised of 8 different strains (not a bad thing). They also had this grape ape caviar, nuggets marinated in kief that was pretty groovy. They said they will be getting some more shatters and other concentrates in soon so I will be back to check it out, if it is anything like their flower selection
The two guys who were in there took the time to talk with me about everything. It is imperative to make the patient feel welcome and at home and a huge part of that is not making us feel rushed. They have only been open two weeks but I think these guys are here to stay, something reinforced as they pointed to their state dispensary license on the wall, one of the first issued. If the cannabis industry is going to truly be accepted by the mainstream, corners cannot be cut. These guys do everything by the books and I applaud them for it. Thank you for providing safe access to patients.

I have also found Mold on Chalice's weed. All growers have to do is send in a gram out of a batch of pounds to be tested, so you can see how a place like this gets around a truthful testing. The flower has mite poop and mold....The icing on the cake is the rudeness and prices. Stay far away from this overpriced non-medication

This place has absolute fire..... every single strain on the shelf is high grade meds. Amazing thing to see in person. The shop is done up like a super high end spa, very cool atmosphere, a must see for ommp patients.....

I was absolutely blown away by the meds, professionalism and sheer knowledge at Powell House. It is evident these fellas really did their homework concerning all aspects of our recently legitimized mmj market. This is how a medical dispensary should be. Rock on Powell House - see you on Saturday for your official opening!

wish I could of received 10% off for leaving a review like the airport location.

Upscale and on track. They've got the goods, and hey, it's all about the bud, isn't it?
November 14, 2017
visited with my stoner brother and stoner nephew from out of state who were kids in a candy store. we were well attended to and all questions were answered. we sniffed and looked at the bud before purchasing. I should have gotten another eighth of royale with cheese. great shit! You guys rock!

I've visited once with their new store. It is a nice place, seems out of place on Powell. It reminds me of the lobby of an orthodontist's office complete with the disinterested receptionist. It is one of those set-ups where they have a budtender come out and give you "the tour". Hey it's not my first time at the rodeo, I just wanted some weed and an edible. I think that this experience is fine for someone wanting to impress someone with them or either a newbie, but for others it is kind of silly. I similarly don't require a concierge at the package store to go over the finer points of Monpolowa -vs- Grey Goose either. When I want cheap vodka I go with Mono, otherwise Goose. Also the prices are understandably a bit high as they have their new building.

Very nice, clean, professional looking and down to earth friendly atmosphere is what I encountered upon my first visit with a warm and kindhearted greeting from the receptionist.
The staff assisting me with viewing their selections are well informed and very helpful. In my case, I needed to inquiry about CBD strains. I was giving many options for a delivery system for my medicine that are high in CBDs and I'm glad that the public has these choices.
While the place is small compared to other places I've been, Powell House left me with an impression of great selection and excellent customer service and epitomizes the E. F. Schumacher concept of “small is beautiful” because Powell House demonstrate that patients matter.

I've been here a few times, and every time the woman with the dark hair (manager?) is extremely rude. The other bud tenders are great. Really informative and helpful. And the product is better than most other places. But I think I may have to find another regular place. Just keep leaving with a bad taste in my mouth every time that lady opens hers.

Overall experience was cool. Would've like to seen buds picked from jar instead of getting my buds in a pre-pack.
Also, very unsatisfied with Chernobyl, for industrial grower and price, I expected to taste buds that came from plants properly flushed before harvest. The fertilizer/ poop taste was not appealing.

Hands down best dispensary in the Portland area! They should have locations all over Oregon! Staff is super knowledgeable and friendly!!

Beautiful shop, well organized. Prices are high! Their specials rock! 4th of July weekend, stopped in, first time in, no freebies or discounts. However, their pre rolls are pretty bomb!

This medical dispensary is awesome. They have a knowledgable staff that cares about the quality of product they are offering their clients. It clearly shows that they have also put a lot of work into the environment itself which add to the overall experience. It's nice to see some people in the business doing it right! Thanks Powell House.

Very nice atmosphere - very calming. Nice, friendly receptionist who quickly took my information and buzzed me in. Kyndra was knowledgeable, friendly and kind. Felt she knew her strains. Pleasant experience; felt safe.

5 stars. The guy who works there gave me the best customer service I have ever received at a dispensary. He knew the product inside and out and was very nice. They have A+ flower at competitive prices and some most excellent BHO and edibles. Parking is super easy right outside the front door. Nice professional, but not uptight, atmosphere. There is also a small head shop next door that sells handmade blown glass pipes by Oregon atrists -

This place is amazing. Very clean and professional. Kyndra was very knowledgeable and helpful. The product is excellent. I will most certainly be back.
