The store was clean and organized. The prices of the items were comparable to other shops we had visited in and around Portland. Among the products, I loved their magnet wall full of unique designs. There were really nice stickers and postcards. After exploring the store for several minutes, we picked few magnets and stickers. Staff members were friendly and interacting with guests. The checkout was quick and easy. Highly recommend this store to anyone looking to do souvenir shopping in downtown Portland.

I had high hopes for finding shirts or at least magnets and my hopes were dashed once I showed up. The shirt selection is low, I found a few that I wanted to grab, but the sizes available are all over the place and not usually for the shirt that you want. I was here to purchase shirts for my nieces and nephew and let's just say that my nephew was plumb out of luck. I did browse for myself a bit and decided to not grab anything after all. I do appreciate a store that features items made in state, it's a great concept, but I would have like to have seen a bigger selection for sizes. I'm thinking that most sales here are of people from out of state that don't have means to go elsewhere.

What a dream bookstore for book lovers indeed! Founded in 1971, Powell's is such a Portland staple,…read moreand this location in the Pearl District is ginormous. You can seriously spend hours perusing all the books and choosing your next read, coffee table book, or whatever your heart desires. My favorite section of the bookstore hands down was the Rare Book Room, a special temperature and humidity-controlled room filled with some of the coolest books I have ever laid eyes on. And yes, they are for sale! To me, the room felt alive as I stood in the presence of historical literature, just as when I stand in the presence of great artifacts at a museum. Access to the Rare Book Room is granted as long as you grab a pass, and no food, drink, or unpaid books/merchandise is allowed inside. You can spend as long as you like (as long as it's not crowded in the room), and there is also a staff member present to answer any questions you may have. Of course I had to purchase a book from Powell's, called Freeway Birding, San Francisco to Seattle (it was even signed)! As an avid birdwatcher, this was the perfect book to add to my ever-expanding library. I also grabbed one of their wooden postcards and a couple of stickers to commemorate our time spent at this amazing bookstore. While the entire store was bustling, even on a weekday in August, take your time at Powell's and get swept away by any and all genres of literature that call to you. You never know what you may find next.

It was within walking distance of our hotel in the Pearl District, so we didn't need to contend with parking. It's overwhelming at first - I had heard of how large it was, but you don't quite get the scope until you start walking through - here are books and people everywhere you look! You can just wander, or make a plan of attack and strategically try to visit every corner of the store. We kind of did a combination of both, and started at the top floor and worked our way back down to ground level. The prices are typical of an independent book store, but they had a nice selection of used books and some great value books to snap up, too. There is literally something for everyone. There are lots of local authors and books set in the region. There are bookmarks around each info station with suggested/popular reads for each section of the store. There was a nice selection of local and bookish items and gifts, too - totes, t-shirts, postcards, stickers, etc. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. I'll be stopping in any time I'm in Portland!

Maps, flyers, public transportation info, booklets, magazines, periodicals, and stickers - wow! It was great to pick up a variety of updated, current reference materials.

There's plenty of luxurious and well known brands in this place, including LV, YSL, Gucci, Tiffany, David Yurman, Apple, Zara, H&M, and Tumi. There are five floors with Regal Cinemas on the top floor and food court at the lower floor. In food court, they have Din Tai Fung. Since Oregon has no sales tax, this mall is popular destinations for tourist, saving them some extra dollars. As we explored the mall, it looked clean and well maintained. In the common area there was a nice water fountain. The food court space wasn't too exciting other than it had DTF. All the stores we went had friendly staff. Security personnels walk around the mall to keep it safe. But outside the mall building, the surroundings are not as secure, so I suggest do all the shoppings during the day time.
