I had been to several Portland dispensaries and was always left disappointed by their unwelcoming facilities, poor selections, and inhospitable staff. Therefore I had low expectations walking into Kind Heart, the whole purpose of me venturing into yet another Portland dispensary was because of a voucher purchased for their location during 'Portland Weed Week'. The store front is a bit deceiving, making the location appear small and dark. Walking in through the doors however is a large well lit waiting area, and I was greeted by a friendly receptionist who immediately ended her conversation with her fellow peer to greet me and check me in. I was then ushered into another set of doors and again immediately greeted by Joel and Nathan, the two gentlemen working the contours that evening. The back room was very well lit and spacious, and one of the walls had a shelf with several small potted plants happily growing away. Joel, my attendant for the evening, was quite knowledgeable, friendly, and patient while I took a moment to take in the information he provided and to make my decision. I walked in for some 'Gorilla Glue' but walked out with 'Future' and 'Green Crack'; I spent a little more than intended and happily forked over my special $2 bill to cover the balance of my tab. Later in the evening I tried 'Future' and was blown away; Joel had not been kidding when he said 'it will definitely make you see the future!' Ha!! Thank you, 'Kind Heart Collective', for restoring my faith in Portland dispensaries.
