I just started shopping at the new Target in the Portland Galleria and its a wonderful store! The old store -- in the same building -- was multi-level and this new store (which is right next door to the old store) is one level, which is nice! And as a vegan, who is a total bargain shopper, I really appreciate the selection of foods, and other vegan products, that Target has at such affordable prices! Plus, the Target Circle Rewards program is really rewarding (pun intended), because I save 0.01% every time I shop, which I can use toward a future purchase.

Convenient location but there is less variety/stock in this Target compared to other ones. Great if you’re stocking on bare essentials only. Not much stock in this location otherwise.

Before this existing remodel, this was a unique go-to Target in downtown Portland. The multi-level galleria was well laid out with multiple varieties of products. Even so, I knew the departments offered less than other Targets in the suburbs, but it was still pretty well stocked. The recent remodel is EXTREMELY disappointing. First of all, I went in looking for children’s clothes and they had completely eliminated children’s clothing options, leaving minimal options for men and women. If anything else, this store has downsized to little more than a glorified CVS. Very sad to lose this iconic go-to. Not a fan of the new micro target approach. Very sad and disappointing.

Need something youre looking for? This location probably doesnt have it.The remodeling took the already limited sized store into a very small target that has very very very little to offer. Especially when there is a literal grocery store less than a mile in either direction.This is now a target that has the bare minimum of anything and its honestly a waste of space. I really miss the old store.

They are going through a renovation now, it should be nice once done.

Refused to let me check out at the counter and tried to force me to use the self checkout despite 3 workers just standing around at the cash register. Then tried to blatantly lie to my face saying we dont allow checkouts here even though Ive been checked out multiple times at that exact register. Will no longer be shopping at this location.Will take my future transactions to Safeway!

Im not homeless, but I couldnt use restroom today. We were with my newborn baby and didnt get access to the changing station because all restrooms were closed.Is it ok you think?Детский отдел расположен на 3 этаже, но лифт до 3 этажа не идёт, т.е. с коляской ты должен тащиться по экскаватору.Это не БЕЗОПАСНО!Качество товаров низкое. Цены высокие.P.S. homeless are people too!We the people!

Very clean and helpful workers. I guess it is normal in Portland for bathrooms to have coded locks on them so the homeless does not use. The shop is on different floors but they still have everything a 1 floor Target would. We thought it was funny that their were escalators for the carts. (As to why there is a photo of it)

I did not feel safe coming to this store at all. Homeless people sleeping right outside the door. Some psychotic lady threw a huge rock at my car as I pulled around the corner looking for parking. High security inside. Seems like a very unsafe place, never coming back.

Nice Target in the heart of downtown. You can find pretty much everything you need from clothing to home goods to groceries. Good selection for all of those categories.

This is the worst Target. Half the shelves are empty and the other half are stocked with piles of merch that dont even have prices. Every time I come here I end up needing to go to Freddies after for 90% of the items on my list.

I’m just wondering why at 7:10 PM on a Saturday night and the Target downtown Portland is closed- The website and Google maps clearly states that they close at 8 PM and that’s even the new restricted times because of Covid. I have a few perishable returns and this is a huge inconvenience.It’s always something with this location, usually they are out of the most simple grocery items Or the rampant homelessness and subsequent commotion and smell/health hazards from them. 1/10

I used to love that there was a target in downtown. They have made it way smaller than it used to be and now its basically a cvs with target brand on it. If your looking to do shopping Id go to the fred meyer on burnside or go to a real store if I could give this a lower star rating I would

They’re eliminating the upper level of the store, which means they’re basically turning it into a Target-branded convenience store. More like a glorified Plaid Pantry.

This one star goes directly to Target Tech. These are the people that work with the cell phones. I had the worst customer service imaginable at the downtown SW Morrison store. This horrible experience costed me more money than planned and way to much time dealing with inadequate service. The service was the same at the other stores. Avoid Target for your cell phone needs!

Horrible store. Nothings in stock, there are always lines at the registers because they never have enough associates in the floor. They wait until there is a line then they radio someone from who may be stocking cheese or spoons to the register. They are always closing early to so they can run home. Store closes at 8 they lock the doors at 7:50. Worse than Walmart.

The staff here is really friendly and helpful. Also, the store is clean and well stocked.I visit this store regularly and I love it. However, I have to give the store 3 stars as they have started using plastic bags at the checkout which is a violation of the plastic bag ban in Portland.Ill be happy to give them my previous 5-star review once they go back to using paper bags.

Not as big as the store near Washington square. But it’s a good store. Decent size but sometimes the stock is low if you see something online. I would check if it’s available in the store. Since it’s a smaller store. Nice staff. Really ready to commute there since it right between a max and streetcar stop. Easy to commute in downtown!!

The customer service here is always pretty consistent. I really wish it was a bigger store because there are a lot of things I see from target that I would like to get at this location. I also wish they had a much bigger seasonal section. The ground floor entrance and sidewalk outside can be a little scary at times because of the way the city of Portland isn’t handling the homeless crisis.

So I bought this heater at a target for which I try to return so I took it the return desk and was told that I could not return it because the receipt has an expired in which it did no say that I could not return the merchandise. I left store and because was not successful on return I just decided I will not shop at a Target stop.

Review №37

I used to use this Target when I lived downtown in 2014 and 2015, and I never had a bad experience back then. Fast forward to 2019, and my experience yesterday was that the place was crawling with transients and homeless, you could barely get in the door due to the groups of people gathered there, and the entire store smelled like urine and feces. I was happy that Id at least called ahead and put my stuff on hold before Id come in - I just needed soap and was thrilled to not have to spend time walking around the place. Of course, after I checked out, I realized that Id been charged $2 more per bar of soap than had been advertised on the Target website (thats 50% more than had been advertised on the website - for an item that wasnt on sale). What?! Ill be taking advantage of Targets price matching policy to get my money refunded, but Ill be doing so at a different location. Unless Im supremely desperate, I dont see myself stepping foot into this Target again. I felt unsafe and was totally grossed out by the smell, which permeated everything.... I didnt want to touch anything while I was there, either. Positively disgusting. I would give this location zero stars if I could. Target management and oversight, where are you, and do you even care about the experience of your paying customers? Appalling.

My review is more regarding the guest services and phone calls. I was trying to reach a specific department and first, that department never picked up. So when it automatically transferred back to guest services there was a young girl named Sheena who hung up on me twice. The first time could have been a mistake, she seemed to not hear me, but after having to call back again and once I asked for the department again she hung up on me instantly. The third time calling I finally had a polite man. I personally dont believe one should be working in guest services if thats how they handle phone calls from someone who wasnt even being impolite.

Seems like theyve gone a bit downhill since opening a few years ago. The selection has never been great compared to a normal Target, however now, it seems the shelves are usually not stocked. Theyre bare. Im not sure whos in charge of ordering, but perhaps they should find someone new. Three stars for being convenient in the downtown area to pick up food items (even though you never know if theyll be stocked or not).

Convenient location for those frequenting the downtown area. They have a decent selection of all the basics but not as much variety as a typical suburban location.I had a friend order something for my son on the website for in-store pickup. The process was extremely simple. I would definitely come back.

Review №52

Truly the most disgusting Target Ive ever been in. Before you even step foot in the front door there are hoards of homeless people camped out asking for money. Once inside theres a strong stench of urine and body odor. The shelves are often empty and picked over. Unkempt. The staff is mediocre at best. Lazy and unmotivated. And whatever you do, DO NOT use their public restroom!!!! I cant even describe the sights youll see in there. Honestly, management should be ashamed of themselves for allowing this store to be run so badly. Although I live only 2 blocks away, I refuse to step inside this Target ever again. Id rather drive out to the one at Cascades where its safe, clean, friendly and no homeless people grabbing at your ankles.

Review №53

Came into this place to purchase something while I visited Portland. This target is messy and full of transients. And I don’t mean outside. There are homeless just laying and sitting inside the store and I can’t figure out why. The employees shouldn’t have to work in these conditions. Didn’t look in the bathroom but based on other reviews the city or some authority should investigate. I’ve been to dozens of stores in San Francisco and I’ve never seen homeless like this in any of them.

Ra
Review №54

I frequent this Target often out of convenience, however DO NOT USE THE RESTROOMS. They are open to the public and I’ve encountered homeless people bathing, drying their hair with the hand dryers, as well as blood on the floor in the stalls, and used feminine products strewn about.

Review №55

This shop was a covered up jewel for me and I was able to discover shoes Ive been looking at online at GOAT or STOCKX and they either coordinated or had a marginally lower cost in my shoe size! I was truly upbeat with my finds here: They had the Acronym X AF1s in my measure as well as the Acronym Vapor Max marginally in my estimate! It was unbelievable! Other than that, the staff was truly obliging. I do not see why this put doesnt have more stars since the fellow who sold me indeed snared me up with a decent RIF paper sack indeed in spite of the fact that I said I was attending to wear them out of the store! I have experienced places with awful client benefit and this isnt one of those places. I appreciate this small shop and continuously come here to window shop some time recently making a purchase! Cool put!

Surprisingly seems to have what Im looking for AND is somehow in downtown, precluding the need to cross over a bridge and drain precious time out of my life. Also, the staff here have been far superior in terms of friendliness and diversity relative to other stores in its class Ive been to. It seems like that staff are trying to hold back even more friendliness to stay professional, but they want to engage me more. Its endearing.

Worse target that I have been to so far, terrible costumer service, came to store 10 minutes before closing to pick up an item that I reserved over the phone, a worker by the door didnt let me in to just come in and pick my item turned out shes a manager very poor costumer service...

Poor customer service. Three reps on second floor joking behind counter who wouldnt look up the item I needed or show me where it might be. After searching for 20 mins and locating it, they asked me to check out downstairs. One cashier with a line of 13 people. Manager is even asked by staff member if another register should be opened but they refused. Price rang up more than Targets website on several items I was purchasing. Adjustments were made but at the cost of the cashiers patience.

Best and closest department store to the Pearl district. It has about a quarter of the merchandise of a full size Target store. If you are looking for a big selection of merchandise you need a full size Target or shop online. This Target is just really convenient for people who live downtown and in the Pearl. This Target is right on the Max and streetcar line so no need for a car.

Nice store. They should match the products being advertised in the current circular to attract loyal customers, not doing so makes them seem like a rip-off. Staff seems mildly untrained.

City Target may be small, but its got the basics: a little grocery section, plenty of housewares and paper goods, seasonal decor, electronics, and clothing. Theres a good chance that youll find what youre looking for. The pharmacy is particularly good: fast, efficient, and theyll text you when your prescription is ready.

In and out, I 😍 that we can order online! Almost all of my shopping is done between Amazon and Target for how convenient they both are (they are also located within a 9min walk of each other).This location has two floors, with a trippy shopping cart escalator so you can shop between the two (Im new to Portland so maybe this is a thing). The entrance is also right at the Max stop.Both times Ive ordered Ive gotten my items under 30min, even when one item was in another location (their site says 2hrs). Theres a parking lot and a courtyard/plaza on the adjacent block, and a food truck lot (also new to me!)

Located right off the MAX and Streetcar, this location is super easy to get to via public transport. If you drive, the building does have its own garage underground or use SmartPark right next door.

Interesting location. It would be greatly improved for me if I hadnt had to go through so many twists and turns inside the building to get to the store itself.

The selection is smaller than other Target centers but they should have everything you need. The whole appeal of this place lies in the fact that it is very convenient to folks who live or are staying downtown and cant easily get out to the big big box stores in the burbs. In that respect, its a smashing success.

It is so convenient, and has a decent selection of products available. But what really put it over the top for me was the customer service.

And everyone who i interacted witht hat worked there was in a great mood. That tells me this is a good place to be.

Review №89

Were from a different state, so maybe I just dont understand how things work in Portland, but this angered me enough to bother coming on here and leaving a negative review for a flipping Target store. My wife and two kids were in town for a wedding. My wife needed to pick up some in-soles for her shoes. While Im standing there with my two kids, my youngest says he needs to pee... like, NOW. I go to the restrooms and they are locked with a code. I assume this is to keep homeless people from using them? I walk up to a cashier and to another employee to ask for the bathroom code and they both tell me, We cant tell you. You have to buy something. I explain, We are buying something, my wife is still shopping for stuff right now. We are paying customers, but if my son doesnt get to the restroom immediately, youre going to have a cleanup on aisle 5. Sorry, they say. Youll have to buy something. So while my son is dancing around trying not to pee his suit that hes about to wear to a wedding, I have to stand in line and buy a friggin Coke so he can take a tinkle. In hindsight, I should have just let him drop trow in the middle of the store and let them mop it up, but something about social norms prevented me from doing this. I get it if youre trying to keep your restrooms from turning into homeless central, but we were literally standing there in suits about to go to a wedding. Absolutely pathetic customer service.

This is a slightly smaller Target than folks may be used to, but is a wonderful option to have right smack in the middle of downtown Portland.

Gotta check it out if you havent yet.

Review №94

A downtown Target store that has all of the goods you would expect out of a Target with the convenience of being in the central business district of a larger city. The staff were helpful, the place is clean, there are code pads on the restroom doors since there is a pretty significant homeless population down by the store. There is a Starbucks located on the ground floor if you need to get in and out for a quick caffeine fix.You may have to travel up and down throughout the store as it is multiple levels, however I was able to get in and out rather quickly finding the product I was looking for on the third floor with no problem.

Review №95

The cashier was awesome. It is like any other Target with a Starbucks. I have an objection to most department stores that sell clothes because they discriminate against larger size women. Over half of the female population is size 14 or above, but you would never know that to walk into a place like this. They have a Plus size section, but they fill it with the clearance stuff from the smaller sizes. They literally had three racks of plus size clothes. Thats it. I was looking for a coat or jacket and they didnt have any in the plus size. Not even a sweater.

I went there to purchase a vacuum cleaner - online it showed they had it. By the time I got there the next morning- they only had the display model which they said they could not sell me. Not only was it a waste of time, and trip - they refused to validate my parking and I had to pay $5. I guess I will go to any other Target besides this one.. or I can certainly buy the equivalent at another big box retailer.

Service was excellent. However, the Customer Service Desk location to pick up online orders is filled with aroma of disgusting aluminum cans recycling happening 5 feet away by mostly homeless. I encourage the recycling, but the location is the WORST. it smells like stale beer and I was ready to vomit. I declined her offer to ring up my other purchases and went elsewhere.

CityTarget is here!Ive found myself at this Target more times than I care to admit to. Theres a good use of space here (store is two floors) and a good portion of the stores second floor contains a grocery with many essentials and a substantial refrigerated/freezer area. If you need the basics (and more), CityTarget has it.Im happy to report that the prices here do not appear to be higher than the stores outside of the city center. This is a win and a big plus for downtown Portland!
