If groovy tunes, good vibes, and great weed is what you're into, look no further. I have come here twice and I'm already greeted by name (sooo incredibly rare!). They invite you into their "home"and makes you feel like family. They even have a loyalty reward system which I'm sure they will be happy to tell you more about once you're there! The weed is ππ½ππ½ππ½ even the bottom shelf weed looks like top shelf weed at other dispensaries at reasonable prices! Highly recommend and you'll catch me there all the time π

I came in today, their opening. staff was very nice, the spot had a funky Portland vibe, they have nice prices, a good selection of flower,edibles, and accessories. I'll definitely be a repeat customer

This is a pretty cozy little shop with some 70's flair. Good bud and nice staff. Definitely worth checking out if you're around MLK or the Moda Center.

Not sure if my last review went through, but if not it was a raving positive review! Awesome awesome place, a must-stop if you're in the area!

Worst Dispensary in town save your money and go to somewhere locally owned and operated . Don't support big cannabis corps like these guys

I really wanted to like this place. Love the 1960s dopehead theme and decor outside and in. But the prices are high and the service is poor. An employee tried to drastically overcharge me, ignoring a special that he had told me about. I think it was a mistake, but I still don't excuse it. Won't be shopping here again or recommending it.

very relaxed atmosphere, open inviting shop Iayout. I like how they made it easy to choose a good variety of flower and made it non-intimitading to smell and look at the jars up close. the girl pulled down a few jars for me to choose from and overall the staff was friendly and knowledgeable. the herb I got is high quality at a fair price. also good location for Lloyd district employees.

bud tenders seemed more interested in talking to each other than anything else. no one explained pricing at all, and felt like they basically ignored me the whole time. plus their bus really wasn't that great, and prices were too high. would have a hard time recommending to someone else.

This is one of my main go-to's in my neighborhood (I mainly buy Top shelf, Clean Green Flower).
I enjoy that most (not all) of the bud-tenders are well educated & able to recommend quality strains. The recommendations aren't always on point or accurate, but I'm willing to chalk that up to varying body chemistry & perceptions around cannabis strains vs effects. A couple of them know what they are talking about with specific growers practices, Terpene profiles & solid, on point recommendations. That is hard to find in Portland, it seems.
I like that they have a loyalty program (though the percentage return is quite low), wake & bake special, and they carry quality grower's. I especially like that they carry Clean Green Certified strains and most of their growers are working towards certification.
I'm glad they allow returning/recycling of the pill containers.
The Atmosphere is really nice inside with cork walls and more of a funky, modern theme. It has a decent layout/lighting and a cannabis jar shelf you can walk up to (but no longer can touch jars, this isn't explained well). I would recommend some changes for a more private and smooth flow of handling larger groups of people or people waiting. It can be a bit chaotic and unorganized when busy.
I do wish the outside didn't look so childish and psychedelic, as I'd rather it matched the more adult and relaxing atmosphere inside. I'm sure it turns away a lot of nice clients, as it did keep me away for a time before I tried it (only because it was close to home and open later than my original (before Electric) go-to nearby).
The only reason I do not award 5 stars for this establishment is because of inconsistencies in their bud-tenders level of service/knowledge/recommendations, I have received some very harsh/micro-seedy and also Developed seed "Top Shelf" strains that have literally left a bad taste in my mouth. I've learned to stick with certain growers because of this, as not all of them have this issue.
I also believe some of what they label as top tier/shelf really doesn't belong there due to micro-seeds/harshness/popping/sizzling/strength or other quality issues the general stoner or newbie might not be aware of.
I have shopped here less when the strain selection is somewhat low at times or when their top-shelf selection is off/Low.
This dispensary is one of the best I've found. I am a Connoisseur and specialize in details, especially having managed an out of state dispensary. I'm sure the average smoker would not notice these things, but details matter, and this place has most of them right.
Just the fact they provide some smooth, truly top-quality, Clean Green Certified strains and have a mostly knowledgeable & friendly staff puts them way above the bar of most dispensaries I've tried in Portland.

felt all the prices were really high. Good buds, but I can get the same names elsewhere a lot cheaper.

Good products and friendly staff. Was told there's no veteran discount in store when it's advertised as 10% online. If you plan to use a veteran discount go elsewhere, but otherwise this dispensary is at par.

Visiting from Ohio and these guys took the time to explain everything to my wife and I. Such a beautiful store and we loved the chocolates suggested by the guy who helped us.

I visited their new location on their opening day and the staff was awesome, the selection was awesome and they have great prices! Will definitely choose this dispensary over the other two nearby on Broadway.

You know that scene in Oddessy 2001 where the apes are confronted with that black obelisk? Yeah, that's what walking into this store was like for me. My partner and I got the Albert Walker from Yerba Buena. It's an Indica dominant hybrid - something most neurotypical plebs stay away from - but for me, and my crushing societally induced anxiety, it was perfect! The two gentlemen who helped us were a couple of standup fellows. Very witty, knowledgeable and *hightly* approachable. 10/10 would come by again. Thanks guys.

Cool environment with a great selection and very helpful (but not overwhelmingly so) staff. Go check them out!

I came in after checking you out on Leafly, and it was one of the coolest shops I have been to! I will be back again. Chris was such an awesome budtender and really made the experience warm and welcome. I love the mural and decor π

I am an every day customer, and this is by far my FAVORITE dispensary. The bud tenders are always patient, understanding, and always help me find exactly what I am looking for. The shop is set up more like a house instead of a store, which makes it seem 'homey' and comfortable. Don't change a single thing! Can't wait to go visit again this afternoon!

This place is as groovy as it sounds! I love checking out new shops when I'm in Portland, and this is my new fav ππ
I work in a shop in Eugene, so I like to think that I know what makes a cannabis shop stand out, and electric lettuce has it down!
Great selection, impressive buds, unique but clear labeling of strains and effects, and a beautiful display for all of their products!
Can't wait to stop by electric lettuce again!!
I snagged their house tangie cookies and Yerba buena's tangie banana suprise, both in prerolls, and I am impressed with the price and the quality of both! I'll be back!!

I've been to Electric Lettuce on Weidler twice now on visits to Portland from Seattle and both times received top notch service helping to pick out some top shelf flowers. I will be returning every time I'm in town and recommend it as a place you have to stop by for weed while in Portland to friends.

Went in for the 20% off deal on the page here. They did not honor the deal.
They gave me 10% off for being a repeat customer and ironically lost me as a future customer.
Enjoy the $3 guys!

I love this place. The best I have been to so far in Portland. The staff is so friendly and helpful. They offer the higher CBD strains and edibles I prefer. EL has everything I need so there is no more going to several different locations to find my CBD favs. I highly recommend checking out the 1:1 CBD/THC mint hibiscus chocolate! The best.
