The CDC

Not what it used to be. Bait and switch much? Percentages on the menu are clearly different than that of the product. The menu says one thing the tests are different. Prices are way too high for the way they operate. Sure they were closed so they have to make up for it, but false advertising? Really? Sad to say I won't be recommending or returning again. I'll drive the extra 5 minutes to a place with better quality better discounts/deals, and trained staff. Steer clear. There are way better places. RIP The CDC

Poor quality flower and pushy staff. I wouldn't recommend. Think about it you can get a better version of whatever strain they carry anywhere else. Please do not shop here. Stop this vicious hustle.

This place has some serious customer service issues. The sad thing is that I wasn't the only person that noticed that the person in charge seemed to have an issue with the employee which resulted in my budtender to be nervous and degraded by the manager in front of me and the customer next to me. As a medical patient I just think I have given this place many tries and it just falls short will drive out of the way every time.

Strange plastic basket process and clearly inebriated staff. Used to be a nice place to get friendly service that wasn't confusing or complicated. Try a one page menu and get rid of the silly baskets, yo.

Used to be a great spot but due to piss poor owners they let the place go how long now without being rec. Now that they are back to rec they raise their prices and change their rewards program. Never going here again, there are too many decent shops in the area to waste your time and cash at this one.

Had a cartridge go out and they were rude about it, I didn't know the policy and the first time I went the guy told me he REMEMBERED selling it to me the day before but wasn't "willing to lose his job" over it and was rude, so I went and dug it out of the garbage and came back the day after two hours before they said they closed on leafly to get out of the car and see ALL of the employees running across the street yelling at me that they decided to "close early" which appeared to be a smoke out at the apartments/car across hall. I find it odd that they would "close early" and not update leafly when they last updated the menu (which was a few hours before I arrived at the shop). The last THIRD time I went it to exchange my CARTRIDGE the girl at the front appeared to be the only one to know anything. The guy in the back that "helped" me looked confused that I brought a product back (which C02 has a VERY HIGH return rate) and he asked me why I didn't have the box twice.... And didn't think I could return it with out.... By this time I was BEYOND OVER THIS DISPENSARY and he nonsense they put me through, thank god the girl from the front desk happened to change to the back and she helped me.... THIS IS BY FAR THE WORST EXPERIENCE I HAVE EVER HAD WITH A DISPENSARY. THE GUYS WHO WORK HERE ARE RUDE AND DONT KNOW ENOUGH ABOUT THEIR PRODUCT OR COMPANY TO BE USEFUL. I WILL NEVER COME BACK TO THIS JOKE OF A DISPENSARY.

Completely and absolutely worth the time to drive somewhere else to get better bud at a better price. Not pleased. This used to be my main spot.

Beaurocratic nonsense and managerial oversight at its finest. I'm not super comfortable with them holding onto my id the whole time I am shopping. I used to get my documents back right away. Lots of room with the new layout. love it.

I had the worst experience here and I will never come back. Took a few minutes to check me in, messed it up so I almost got skipped after waiting for several minutes. I noticed how expensive their oil was compared to other dispensaries I've been to. I'm about to finish my purchase up and the bud tender that was helping me said extremely rude "I don't have to serve you" after making a little side comment to my friend I was with about the prices. Then after being rudely treated, they asked to check my bag out before I left. Pretty sad that you treat a first time customer like this and no one is going to buy low percentage thc oil for $40+ a gram when you can go other places for cheaper. If you're in the Tigard area, I would keep on driving until you find another place!

The minute we walked out of this place, we looked at each other and said, "What a joke!" in unison. Lol. First dispensary I've ever been to and walked out empty handed when I came in very ready to buy. First of all, who is giving this place 4 or 5 stars?? I'm so sick of people writing good reviews because they get a free pre-roll or for a review and don't want to leave a bad one and have to actually look those people in the face when they return for their free stuff. As far as the establishment goes.....You walk in and immediately wonder if you're at a U-Haul/storage facility or a dispensary. When asked which one you're here for, you realize it's both. Not a deal breaker but my friend got a long funny look from one of the storage customers. The only good thing I can say is the front desk girl was really nice but was either really new or really high because it took forever to get checked in and she messed up a few times, by far the longest check in process ever and also a waste of paper. The bud selection here isn't good but the quality is even worse! The prices are the same as other places with way better flower. Their best bud samples barely had any crystals on them and smelled like hay. The older lady budtender kind of had an attitude, especially when she realized we weren't impressed by the flower they had that she was trying to talk up. Overall, a total waste of time. I definitely don't recommend this place. Save your time and go to the next closest dispensary. And please start leaving honest reviews guys! According to the ratings on here, pretty much every single dispensary in town has a 4.5+ star rating and that just doesn't seem plausible.

The weed is good and the staff is very nice but it kinda feels that the weed is not that strong? Or like old? However the strains are not bad.

I went from being a multi daily regular to never been so disappointed by a dispensary. Don’t waste your money on the prerolls, especially house rolls. They’re full of stems, shake and don’t smoke. The filters are loaded with Scooby snacks, and they couldn’t care less. Only advice they told me is to stop buying them. Miss the atmosphere because half on them are pretty cool. Wish them the best and hope they develop into something better.

Absolutely loved being helped by Isaac he was overly helpful not to mention knowledgeable about their product. Currently I'm herb shopping on a budget so I asked to look at multiple lower shelf strains asking tons of questions about the quality, the content and prices for multiple strains etc. Determined to ultimately get the best possible deal I could afford. Most places I've been to would consider me a real pain but Isaac was very patient and gave me quite a bit of one on one customer service attention so to speak even at a really busy time of the day for them. Isaac never showed any indication of frustration and didn't try to rush me at all and seemed genuinely happy to help me. Hands down showed me the greatest customer service I've ever experienced out of many many dispensaries here in PDX. Thanks again Isaac :)

Bummed... Called to verify animal cookies was there, came spent good money to find out it wasn't even close. Very disappointed as a vet rec.

Prices seemed great. I don't completely know though because I wasn't really helped...it was my first time going and I went in with my boyfriend. We checked in and waited, when it was our turn they called only my boyfriend and he clarified that we were together and we were both allowed back. Once in the shop I was denied the purchase of edibles because my boyfriend was buying an edible and already met the daily limit. I was told that I wasn't "checked in." My boyfriend and I have been to numerous dispensaries together and we have never had any issues before now. I also tried to inquire about the prices of some oil cartridges and was first ignored, then told to just read the menu (even though said cartridges were not listed). We just moved to the area and this is the closest dispensary to our apartment, plus my boyfriend loves this place, so I will hesitantly be giving them another chance. And I will definitely let them know ahead of time that I too am a customer

I went to the CDC for my first time yesterday. The gentleman at the front, Sam, was super personable and friendly. He got me checked in quickly and he asked me if I would like him to laminate my OMMP card. I found that to be incredibly thoughtful as I've been carrying the paper card around and I haven't had the opportunity to laminate it myself. Plus, I've visited several different shops and nobody has ever offered to help like that, so that experience alone was enough to make me a continued customer. I went during their 5pm - 7pm happy hour for medical patients where they offer 20% off most product, I purchased 2 grams of their cheapest concentrate which was Golden OG BHO. I got a killer deal and walked out with 2 grams for only $48! There are seriously some amazing deals, and they have a loyalty program which is something that Nectar doesn't have. However, once I got home and took a closer look, I was very concerned because the wax had a bad smell similar to rubber, or plastic, not the fruity smell I'm used to with wax. I smoked some anyway, but the taste was even worse than the smell, it was kind of like chewing on a burning car tire. I tried burning it on very low heat with the same results. It was absolutely terrible, I'm not sure if I can stress that enough. I am aware that this type of resulting smell/taste is usually caused during the wax manufacturing process, and I knew that The CDC has a no-returns policy typical of any other weed store, so I wasn't sure what to expect. I called The CDC the next day to explain what was going on. My call was answered by Sam, he remembered me from before and was very empathetic and reassuring that he wanted to help make things right. He put me in touch with one of the managers, Antonio, who was actually the person who had helped me with my purchase the previous night. He explained that this is a very rare problem and encouraged me to bring the wax back in so they can swap it out. They recognized me and made my visit a very comfortable and hassle-free process. They gave me some other wax that is packaged differently and tastes amazing! I am super happy with how everything turned out and I can't recommend them enough!

Friendy staff, good deals

great place. competitive prices. and Aren was super helpful not just trying to move me along but giving good advice on the product. 10/10 will be back

Super chill staff, cute little place. They even have a raffle type thing going on. Would definitly reccomend.

Always a great selection and as good or better prices than anywhere else . A very helpful staff

I really wanted to like this place I came in 3 times and bought ounces each time. The 3rd time I had less money and the budtender told me that the shake was so incredibly good that I should spend all my money on just an ounce of that. I'm very trusting and in Oakland shake was always still really good quality. This was not. This was your grandmother's lawn mixed in with your aunts green tea drawer and a tiny pinch of some twigs and other vaguely weedy looking green stuff. This made me ill. I had to lay down and wait for it to pass. And it wasn't just me because a friend came over later and tried and he had to lay down until the nausea and the headache passed. No high at all. Just sick. Bottom line: This store sells shake that is unsmokeable and will make you sick. I called and brought it in to let them know there was a problem, No apologies. No refunds. Dont make the same mistake I did and waste your money here.

Hands down the BEST dispensary in Portland. Budtenders are super attentive, helpful and friendly. They have a myriad of variety to fit every budget and daily deals. Flower, dabs and edibles are all on point. They have a little bit of everything for every customer. Best deals in Portland.

Super nice people and good product. Not the fanciest store, but a nice variety of products. Would definitely recommend.

Their menu is hardly updated, so don't count on them having what they are advertised. I just spent 20 minutes waiting for my wife who went in for a specific type of MJ off their menu, and low and behold they are out. Not only are they out of that specific type, they are out on about 4 other types advertised on their menu as "in stock". Also, they end up giving her some strain that isn't even advertised on leafly. Don't make the trip down to this place unless you call to verify they have the strains that are listed on their website. Much better dispensaries out there with updated menus.
