Made In Oregon

This is a great shop, Everything is made in Oregon. So if you are into buying local or buying a gift for someone who wants a reminder of here, then this is a good place to come.
They have all kinds of merchandise. Lots of food, some cloths, souvenirs, nicknacks… all kinds of stuff. They have been around for years, and have acumulated a great assortment.
The negitive here is it seems targeted to an older customer base and prices can be on the high end. You also have to wade through a lot of stuff to find what you want.

I just go here to gaze longingly at the PDX carpet stuff. ;-)
I loved this carpet the entire time it was in our airport and even remember when it was rolled out over the ugly tile.
Back then, Washington Square did not have a Made in Oregon store, but it did have a cafeteria instead of a food court and even a movie theater!
But enough about that. This review is about Made in Oregon. Our lovely little gem of a tourist shop. And it really is lovely. The staff is always friendly, helpful, local, and knowledgeable. They stock just about every local product except Dave’s Killer Bread, which isn’t really a touristy item, and was recently purchased by a national company so it doesn’t really count anymore anyway.
Of course they have T Shirts, and sweatshirts, and fleece; pendants and coffee mugs and wine. And then there are the «true» Oregon souvenirs. Containers of rain. Maple bacon donut beer. Tillamook cheese. Moonstruck Chocolates. Things only a true native would appreciate. Enjoy!

I walked into the store over the holiday season and felt invisible. Being from Oregon, I wanted to send an assortment of gifts to a relative out of state. However, NO ONE EVEN GREETED ME OR ACKNOWLEDGED ME WHEN I WALKED INTO THE STORE. NO ONE. And I think there were a total of 6 people working that evening? I came in around 7:00pm and the store was not the slightest bit busy. I even walked right up by the front counter several times where THREE employees talked and griped about the shifts they had to work over the holidays, while never making eye contact with me, and I could not get their attention. Seriously? a) You have a job, be grateful. b) I was ready to do some serious one-​stop shopping and ‘get er done’ with a fabulous basket of wine, smoked salmon, assortment of nuts, cheese and chocolates from our great state (see, I could be a better sales person than who you have working there!), but c) NO ONE CARED TO GIVE ME THE TIME OF DAY OR TO EVEN TRY TO MAKE A SALE. After working retail for a number or years myself, I was astonished, disgusted and speechless. I guess I will be ordering wines online from one of the many fabulous wineries around our region instead. Or maybe another store in the mall would want my business…

As expected, there is a lot of Oregonesque merchandise which could make some cool gifts or souvenirs. Some things are a bit pricey and while not everything is ‘useful’, it has some cool things to use as décor or simply help you rep the Beaver State!
I thought customer service here was good when I went, so my experience seems to be different than many other reviews suggest.

The worst customer service I have experienced. Being from out of State, I wanted to buy some things that were Made in Oregon. Was never greeted by anyone as they were to focus on setting up their displays.
Never asked if I needed assistance or if I had questions on anything. I did have questions.

This is one of the few stores at the mall that I will shop (during the handful of visits I make to the mall in a calendar year). Sometimes one needs to plan strategically though. Occasionally they will have an amazing warehouse sale online. You can order the items over the phone M-​F with a real customer service representative and do store pick up to save on shipping. Store pick up is free. For example, I bought several bottles of Honeywood’s «Holiday Cheer» wine for only $ 1.99 in January. You can’t find wine anywhere cheaper than that. I have found other food items on sale like rogue creamery cheese for 70% off. These deals are fantastic. In store I have bought a Portland skyline mug, Oregon artistry prints, cards, postcards, Oregon ornaments, and myrtlewood perfume bottles. They also sell Pacifica products. I would say about 85% of the store is local products. I have also bought Oregon rain soap, and other local lavender lotions here. If I need to get holiday presents: this is a place I can rely on. The store has moved a few times, and when they get busy the store feels a bit crammed. Otherwise, this place is a gem. One of my favorite places to shop.

They are as advertised. Much of it is made in Oregon. However not a lot of items that you would want or use. Do I really need an Oregon license plate keychain? And just wait for the sticker shock from the cheap imported «Oregon» branded items.

Not very good service. We came in there to make a wine and gift basket lurches we scoped out online. We asked for some specific wineries that were listed online and when we inquired we were met with a dismissive, non eye contact answer of ‘that is all the wine we have.’ Not satisfied with that answer we asked about not seeing the gift baskets we seen online and then we got a few curt, ‘the website is diffent than the store’ and still did not make any attempt to help is any further. I mean we were asking a couple of key questions and laying down enough clues that we were there to spend some serious money on some gifts to ship. Definitely way over a hundred to two hundred dollars and not just getting a hat or something. Definitely need some management involvement with teaching selling and customer service skills to be more profitable, drive sales and retain customers. We left and will not shop there again. William Sonoma, Trader Joes, New Seasons and New World Market will have all the items we want to build these gift baskets with. Talk about disappointing.

Name says it all. This store is located inside the Washington Square Mall.
Bought a couple of beers at a fair price. Found out later that it would have costed us more at Harry and David.
One of the staff was very helpful. The other staff member who helped us was just okay.
They have a variety of everything here. Many unique items which are difficult to find elsewhere. So, you are sure to find something you like or want to give as a gift.
Prices seem reasonable as well. If we’re ever in the neighborhood again, we’d return here. Made in Oregon has something for everyone.

I love Made in Oregon. They carry so many amazing local products including but not limited to wine, snacks and food, Pendleton blankets, magnets, OSU and UO gear, postcards, jewelry, clothing, etc. It is a wonderful place to shop for gifts around the holidays. I appreciate the speciality items they carry. If you are from Oregon or visiting it is a must visit.

Local products at a local store…100% Oregon. I like to go here and pick up stuff I see at other places for cheaper (sometimes more expensive) but its nice to see MADE IN AMERICA! And as much as I hate to admit it, its the only place Ive seen the Portlandia books (ugh touristy)

We like looking at the gemstone jewelry when we are here.
This last time that we were here though, we saw something that we didn’t like. One of the workers was restocking the shelf, but how he was restocking was by going over to the box and taking food products out and then brought them over to the shelves that he was going to restock and he put the food products on the FLOOR while putting them one by one on the shelf. Food on the Floor? That is not sanitary! Didn’t anyone train him?

Great selection of quality Oregon products. A «must stop» destination when I visit. The Moonstruck cocoa is incredible as is the fudge by the Brigatine monks. From food to wine to beautiful gifts, tis a pleasant place to browse &shop.

My all time favorite place to get gifts especially for out of town guests. The staff are always very freindly and knowledgeable, (a rare combination in retail). I got a great OSU sweatshirt for my son that was a perfect size and 40% off today. The place to get a quick drink while in the mall: Viso, high on flavor and vitamins and without the sugar rush of pop. And bacon bars. Where else in the mall can you get high quality locally handcrafted items? The majority of everything at the mall is mass produced, so this is a real treat to also support local.
Added bonus: You might even fine a bird or two on something! Rock on Portlandia

I needed a locally made gift for a relative and found a good selection of merchandise about Oregon. Unfortunately most of the items were made in China or Manufactured in Mexico for an Oregon Company. Another unfortunate aspect is the gift will be shipped over seas and the shipping of many of the products in bottles and jars would have been too high. Good selection of shirts and caps made in China made choosing a gift easy but not made in Oregon, sad.

For tourist or people taking gifts elsewhere in the country, Made in Oregon rocks. We always go here to get any number of their different selection of in state jams and jelly’s. My mom loves marionberry jam and here they have no end to the different products made from those berries. My aunt loves the scone mix. Me, I like to try and find the Eugene based Euphoria Chocolates.
They have plenty of other stuff like wines, soaps, trinkets, and clothing to name a few. Anyway, it’s an excellent place to purchase gifts when visiting Oregon.

This is a great place to get gifts for people you will see when you travel. Whether you’re looking for a hostess gift to bring when you go to dinner or for souvenir gifts, Made in Oregon has it.
Their selection is incredible — can you believe almost* all this stuff is from this one state?! You’re greeted at the entrance by a display of different chocolates, candies and cookies by local companies big and small. Near by are featured seasonal displays of jewelry, soaps, candles, ornaments, etc. Shelves along the wall from floor to ceiling are filled with jams, jellies, sauces and spreads. The edible section is bursting with fish, nuts, dried fruits and jerky from all over the state. The section of wine is filled with bottles at almost every price point. Nearer the rear of the store they have works in wood, metal and textiles from local artisans. Pendleton has a whole section all it’s own, too. I hope I haven’t left anything out!
We’ve been shopping at Made in Oregon stores for 8 years for omiyage for people all over the country. I think we could shop here another 80 without ever buying the same gifts twice!
Most recently we went here with my visiting sister and brother-​in-​law. They got wine, salmon, cookies and handmade pottery to take back to the east coast for friends. (Plus a bottle of wine to enjoy on the last night they stayed with us.) They enjoyed the wine tasting that was going on and were particularly impressed with the service they received. My sister said she was told twice about the wine tasting (good thing) and the counter staff wrapped all their gifts so they’d be safe for travel.
I’ve always had great service here. Whether we needed things packed for travel or not, everything seems to be handled with care. They aren’t skimping with shopping bags either — I’ve noticed some mall stores aren’t so generous when bagging your purchases.
The staff will help you put together boxes or baskets of your favorite edible and collectible made in Oregon items for a one-​of-​a-​kind gift. Or, you can pick any of their prepacked gift boxes to send or carry with you. They’re great over the phone, too. They put a box of Moonstruck truffles shaped like Beavers on hold for me to pick up with no fuss!
A little secret: you can get discounted Moonstruck chocolates here immediately following any holiday or after a change in seasons. We recently got a bag of leaf-​shaped mint tingles here for $ 5 instead of $ 10. (^.^)
*Shhh, don’t tell, but the water crackers next to the salmon aren’t local!
