NEVER GOING BACK! I'm a regular who spends 400 to 600 dollars a month in this one store. I usually go in for the shatter day deal but because of my schedule I couldn't make it there on Saturday. So I dared to ask for a 5 dollar discount on a 120 dollar purchase. I was going to purchase two grams of Dirty Arm Farms but was denied the discount. They wouldn't discount 5 dollars. In the end they lose 4800 dollars a year off just me. The business is run poorly. Regulars should be shown appreciation every once in a while.

Switched to OMMP only and acted like it was my fault that they never told their customers and don't put it on their page. Horrible customer service.

Incredibly knowledgeable staff!! Of course Dominic is my favourite. Warm and inviting space. Great selection. Love that they take cards.
Cherry City is the real deal. So many dispensaries have popped up and just like when I lived in LA most won't make it because they're just in it for the money. Cherry City COMPASSION, they'll still be standing tall when all the others have failed.
If you are new to this ancient medicine go to the experts. These are the best people to help guide you.

the best.

This was my first time at this location.
My immediate hesitation was that this place was really awkward. It was locked up like Ft. Knox and I had to flash my ID at this wizard of oz type gatekeeper and get this purple card. Then flash my ID again and give up the purple card. I get that they want to make sure nobody underage gets it but it was really strange. I'm already kind of shy about going into these places and this just didnt help. I felt like I was going into a Porn store or a an underground poker club or something. I felt like I was doing something wrong. Bizarre.
Once I got in however the woman behind the counter did a great job and was very friendly. I knew what I wanted because of looking it up on leafly in advance and their prices and inventory was exactly what they put on their which was nice. Again I am anxious about going to dispensaries so I like to have a plan.
She knew a reasonable amount about my choice and made a few recommendations. The prices were good for some strains and above average for others. I will say the quality was excellent on all the flower I purchased. They had some unique strains too I hadn't heard of anywhere else.
They weighed the product manually and didn't have all those pre-made little pill jars like I see elsewhere. That is always something I appreciate as the product seems much fresher. She did not use gloves when dispensing the product or handling the money. This is something I see about half dispensaries do who manually weigh out the cannabis. I dont know if it makes a difference because they used chopsticks but the idea of having the gloves and being sterile was always something I thought was nice.
Overall the variety and kind bud tender was a big plus. The strange entrance and procedure was the only major drawback. I would go back again.

Terrible selection and grams are preweighed and are underweight. The jäger and the lemon haze were a point under

First time visit yesterday and I was very impressed. My budtender was very friendly and informative. No prepackaged bs here. It's weighed and packaged right in front of you. He even trimmed off the excess stems. After having been to a few other dispensaries in town I'm sold. CCC will be my go to from now on. Green Cush (crack) was my choice and I'll be going back for another strain that was recommended as well. Highly recommend this place!

Okay, let's start off by saying I've been visiting many of the dispensaries in the Salem and Portland area for some time now as a Rec client. Salem has gotten it wrong from the start, it felt more of a money grab than anything else. Now that the dust has settled a bit this dispensary now stands out among many in town. They found a niche between PDX and Salem pricing that doesn't make as much sense to drive to PDX anymore. Well done guys! The flower selection has been very solid as of late.

Cherry City Compassion is the only dispensary I go to here in the valley! Its the best place to go for all your medicinal needs. I have been going there for about seven months and have never had a bad experience or been dissatisfied by the products they carry. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and go out of their way to make sure I leave with the best medicine for me :) I have been reading other reviews and see that there are some who are giving negative feedback about the the high CBD flower strains Bubblegum and AC/DC and I have to disagree! I battle MS daily and using medicinal marijuana has improved my lifestyle in ways prescription drugs never could. And then I tried the Bubblgum strain and can't believe how well this helped with my nerve pain...and with muscle tension! Granted its high in CBD and low in THC so it will lack the head high. Its a strain that definitely serves a medicinal purpose and I strongly recommend those who are searching for the right medicine and not just to get high give these two flowers a try! Don't get me wrong...I love all the different flower they carry and I use them all too. But after adding a high CBD flower to my daily regimen I am beyond pleased with the effects it has had with my body!!

This is my first time back here since they've been back with recreational... and they did not disappoint! XD Came in for just a cartridge (haven't tried yet) and decided to snag a gram of the 'Chong's Choice' (thank goodness for ability to use a card XD last minute decision on the gram had me over by a bit)... This... Bud... Is... GLORIOUS! The quality is just straight top shelf! Straight one hitter quitter! Everyone should definitely hit this place up!!! Beautiful, tasty nugs that make your mouth water just by looking at them and then it takes you off to another planet... ok... maybe got a bit carried away! Regardless! Thank you!!!

Truly, the best dispensaries I have ever been true. Keep up the great work. You should all be proud of the work you do.

As an OMMP cardholder, I am very disappointed at how this dispensary has gone downhill since the recreational laws went into place. It is clear that they are focused on the satisfaction of recreational patients, not medical. At least two employees have been condescending, and are unwilling to let me look at the label of a product that is known to have inconsistent labeling (Siskyou Farms OCO) before I buy it. I've tried to give feedback, because their employees need training in customer service, but it falls on deaf ears.
