About ASAP Buds

ASAP Buds is a compact dispensary at 105 NE 8th Avenue in Kerns, a block off East Burnside on Portland's inner east side. It sits in a dense cluster of shops — Oregrown, Bridge City Collective and Oregon's Finest are all within about 0.2 miles — and is a short walk from the Oregon Convention Center, Revolution Hall and the Burnside Bridge into downtown.

The shop opens at 7 a.m. and closes at 10 p.m. every day, the full window Oregon allows for retail sales, which makes it one of the few places on the east side you can shop before work. It holds OLCC home-delivery and medical-retailer endorsements, and its online menu takes orders for delivery as well as in-store pickup; one reviewer says a phone order arrived in under an hour.

Inside, the menu covers flower, pre-rolls, vapes, concentrates, edibles, tinctures, topicals, seeds and clones. Google's review summary highlights flower recommendations, clear explanations and a neighbor discount, and a visitor notes that the smoke shop next door stocks papers and other convenience items.

What Customers Say About ASAP Buds

4.9 out of 5 from 315 Google reviews · read the reviews on Google

ASAP Buds averages 4.9 stars from 315 Google reviews. Most of the recent ones are about one budtender, L (Luis), whom shoppers describe as quick, patient and good at finding the best value for a budget; regulars and first-time visitors alike say they now ask for him. Others praise the selection for a small shop and the speed of phone and delivery orders.

The few complaints are specific rather than general: one shopper felt brushed off when asking for edible recommendations, and another had a dispute over an ATM that failed to dispense cash. If you plan to pay cash, bring it with you rather than relying on the in-store machine.
