    Alberta Cooperative Grocery is amazing. I used to frequent it when I lived in PDX in the day circa 2004 to 2005. On a recent visit here it is still a special place worth visiting and supporting. Kate, who works in bulk, was friendly and helpful. I ended up picking up some goji berries in bulk, harmless coconut water to hydrate the walkabout in the sun, and some medjool dates rolled in coconut with a sliced date on top. They have a great variety of everything from flowers, to heaps in bulk including: numerous whole grains, to various local coffee beans, almonds, and even reishi mushrooms in bulk. I try to eat a lot of whole grains. Quinoa is a staple of mine in San Francisco for it cooks fast, is high in protein, and just make sure to rinse first. 20 min it is done. For produce they had amazing heirloom tomatoes in a variety of colors, avocado, and heaps of greens which are a favorite of mine. Greens such as kale cook up fast with a little bit of olive oil or steamed. Anyone living in or visiting Portland should check out this gem of a store with amazing products and friendly helpful staff.

    Love it here! My wife and I are staying in Portland for a week and this has been a staple. Great selection of local produce, local wine, yummy pastries, and friendly staff. Also, a wonderful variety of plant-based delights. Highly recommend!

    Magnificent place.  The one store in Portland that has Agar Agar.

    Great service. You ask a question and two people run to find your answer. If they were closer, I'd be here every week.

    Alberta Cooperative Grocery's "Find Pickles" Game

    This review is NOT based on their produce or market goods haha. My friends and I were exploring Alberta Street and we were told there was this game to be played at the market. So...this review is based on that haha. (We weren't tourists at all haha). FIND PICKLES: There's a flyer located in the front of the store labeled with "Can you find Pickles the Co-Op Kitten?" It was a fun 10-15 minutes trying to find the (fake) kitten. Something fun to do if you're in the area. Definitely decently hidden haha.

Their petits four tea cakes are always available, absolutely darling, and crowd-pleasing.

The space is expansive and thoughtfully designed, with just enough of a laid back vibe that makes one forget about the immediate gentrification of the neighborhood, while also being aware that someone might just take something and run at a moment's notice. (#1) From the produce section to the prepared foods, every corner of the store reflects a high level of attention to detail. The real highlight during my visit was the bakery department. I came in expecting a standard pre-made cake and left with something that bordered on a work of art. The staff were friendly, attentive, and clearly take pride in what they do--especially when it comes to cake decoration. The lettering was precise, the presentation flawless, and the result exceeded expectations in both appearance and service. If there's one consistent drawback, it's parking. Street parking in this part of Portland is often difficult and requires patience. It's not unique to this location, but it's worth noting if you're visiting during peak hours. Still, once inside, the store does a remarkable job delivering on what the brand promises--and in this case, perhaps a little more. ___________ (#1) A terrible west coast retail reference.

These 4 tarts in a box, so that's like less than $1.00 each. Just heat them up in the oven for 1/2 hour and they're ready! I just had to check out Trader Joe's and see them for myself and maybe get a box or two to heat up at the hotel for later. I think there's an oven I can use or last resort the microwave in the room.

And you can't beat the prices here! Whether I'm looking for preassembled bouquets, or assembling my own, I generally find what I need here. The only drawback of shopping in this location is the parking lot. It's a very busy thoroughfare given the proximity to the Hollywood transit station, and the freeway offramp, so there's always a lot going on here. There isn't much space to park in the neighborhood if the parking lot is full, so I've been known to circle the lot a few times before finding a space. Trader Joe's hires the friendliest staff in the world, no matter the location, but I've always felt very welcome in this location. Everyone is always smiling and seems happy to be at work.
