If you are looking to be treated like a POS go here

after having used this dispensaries for almost all of my personal use for about a year, I will never again be going back. What was once a very welcoming place to step into, has turned into exactly the opposite. The greeters at the front door seem annoyed to have to check you in, and once you get to the back all the employees seemed to preoccupied rolling pre-rolls or doing something else to help out any of the customers. I used to love that this place is only about five blocks from my home on Alberta, but would make a 30 minute drive to not deal with the lack of service that is offered.

I just don't like the shop

Wow. What an awful dispensary. The employees have literally no care for the culture or consumers coming into this location. Most of them have no idea what they’re talking about and will just consistently point you toward the most expensive items without a care for what you’re interested in. Perhaps the worst part about this dispensary is the pricing. It’s consistently double the cost for the exact same good (easily traceable on leafly) when I mentioned this to one employee she laughed in my face and assured me “well it sells”. No shit it sells, but you don’t have to be a soulless money grubbing corporation. I’d strongly encourage any and all serious cannabis users to avoid this place like
The Fucking plague.

Stuck going here due to location. The flower selection for Indicas is minimal. Their BHO and cartridges are the same quality that I’ve found elsewhere. My problem is that they run daily specials that they often don’t acknowledge or offer. You have to ask. Then, they act like they don’t know what you’re talking about for a minute. It’s irritating and a pain.

I sent a copy of the following email to Uplift Botanicals at 5421 NE 33rd Avenue Portland, OR. Dispensaries today are eager to receive reviews from their customers for posting to your site when they are positive. This one is not positive but should probably be posted none the less.
TO: Business Owners
Yesterday I reviewed your link at leafly.com and found that you are selling Dream Lotus for $10 per gram. Today I dropped by your business and bought 2 grams of Dream Lotus and paid $26. Received no receipt, no caution notice, no camaraderie. Today I am again seeing the pricing at your business link to leafly remains at $10 per gram on the Leafly website after my purchase was made.
Poor representation of your business in my opinion. Your math doesn't add up. I am not inclined to be a repeat customer.
Doesn't seem to me that you want my business or that of other leafly customers.
The following is the response I received from Uplift Botanicals:
Just wanted to address your concerns and assure you that there's no intent to deceive you or any of our customers. I'm sorry that our Leafly page appeared confusing. It can be really hard for us to keep it up to date as well as accurate for both medical and recreational customers. The $10/g price on Dream Lotus is actually for medical patients. That said the reason that you paid $26 for 2 grams is due to the state imposed tax of 25% to all recreational customers which every dispensary has to charge. In our case we raise the rec price slightly to $10.40 a gram so that when you add the 25% sales tax it equals a round number which is $13 a gram. We would be happy to provide you a receipt for your purchase anytime and can still offer you one if you'd like which will break down the costs as I described. Anyhow I hope that at the least the Dream Lotus treated you well and please feel free to reach out if you have any further questions or if there's anything else we can do.
Regards,
Team Uplift

Love their assortment of concentrates. Especially CBD. I use CBD for chronic pain but can't afford a medical card. So I appreciate that they don't charge an arm and a leg for it. This place has a great vibe to it and the budtenders know their stuff. Will be back.

Just wanted to take a minute to let everyone know the ladies that were working the floor today did an amazing job keeping everything in order and everything moving, even with a power outage that hit them randomly and then took the POS system off-line they were still very upbeat, positive and friendly even when dealing with other customers who were not very pleasant.
Thank you ladies, wonderful experience with you as always!❤

I love this store. I'm new to the area and have been to dispensaries all over Portland. I keep finding myself at this one though, and it's because of the wonderful employees who are knowledgeable and upbeat. Great prices! And if flower isn't your thing...they have many edible and vape options. GET UPLIFTED!

Well, it is close and
I have lived in this neighborhood off and on my whole life, I still can not believe this is located in the heart of Concordia. neighborhood. This corner once was a book store, the ECT. tavern and a accountant office. Wow , the changes I have seen, I love it!

Uplift is possessed of a very comfortable and friendly atmosphere. The shop is beautiful and the people there are knowledgeable, helpful and, most importantly, kind. The menu is good, offering a variety of goods. I'll definitely be going here again and will eagerly suggest Uplift to anyone who asks.
