Cost Plus World Market

This place is amazing and makes me want to buy everything. The workers are super friendly and actually have conversations with me which feels super great because I don’t usually expect employees to be like that or to really care. I’ve always been helped when I have a question and I feel that the workers have a really good attitude. I come here very often and never regret a single visit

The usual streak of quality Cost Plus World Market locations continues at Gresham Station. Employees here are friendly and the selection is large as ever. This store in particular is among the closer ones to the light rail stop. It is elegantly decorated, very visually pleasing.
I went here to explore the usual slate of foreign offerings. There was Heinz Beans from Britain and lots and lots of Haribro from Turkey. I decided to get the Fizzy Cola variety. The cashier was efficient and cheerful. Prices are mixed, but mostly good.
Visiting this Cost Plus is an action worthy of recommendation.

I recently moved to Gresham from Portland and was pleased to find this market. I have experienced such poor customer service in the past with some of the competitors, and from the moment I walked in to the moment I left, I felt welcomed. The staff was attentive and answered all of my questions happily. What a great shopping experience, and the price was right!

Worst customer service ever. After the helpful Portland staff had Gresham hold an item for us and we made the thirty five minute drive, the unhelpful Gresham staff acted like they had no idea what we were talking about. Wait – oh, right, they did talk to the Portland store but never said they had that item in stock or would hold the item.
A honest explanation, like we goofed when we confirmed we had that model or another sales associate sold it would have been acceptable. But to defensively declaim any responsibility and be combative on top of it was unacceptable.
I get retail is an oft thankless and low paying job. But we would’ve never even darkened your door had you not made the promise to hold an item for us.
After spending over a hundred dollars that day at the Portland store and wanting to spend an additional two hundred, it was reasonable for us to expect more transparency.
The Portland store was willing to ship the item from another region, but at that point we pretty much decided we never wanted to shop there again.

Absolutely love World Market. Love that they have Tim Tams (my partners nostalgic favorite from Fiji/​Australia), and all sorts of delicious goodies from around the world. I love the halva.
Their décor adorns many corners of our home. We just purchased the big circle bookcase to sit in our kitchen by the sliding glass door for both cook books and liquor storage (and the few nice looking appliances w have). We will be purchasing that gorgeous gavin cafeteria table next month and I can’t even explain how exciting that is for us. My partner drags her heels about coming in here with me, not because she doesn’t adore this place, but because there’s always so many things we want to buy!
Their staff is EXTREMELY helpful– we bought that bookcase recently, and found that we had picked up two sets of shelves instead of the box that had the frame in it and a box of the shelves. (two «1 of 2» boxes). We lost our receipt, but when we called them a week later (when our handyman discovered the error) they quickly exchange the pieces without question, and carried it out to our car to load it for us. They’re very friendly and very helpful.

I love Cost Plus, and this was one of the biggest Cost Plus Markets I’ve been to. I love their huge variety of food items (although they don’t seem to stock up on Green Tea Kit Kats)! If you receive a shipment of them, please let me know :)

I frequent this place since its opening day. It was an AMAZING shop, something Gresham had never seen before. Items and alcohol around the world, furniture made in India and Japan… beautiful things that you couldn’t find anywhere else. I spent so many days wandering around with no intention of buying, just to see the things they had. They have so many nice things but they’re SO expensive. If you’re buying anything, don’t expect to pay under twenty. I do see occasional sales that make the items somewhat reasonable, but geesh, the prices are whack if you’re looking for anything remotely large or nice.

SNACKS. Oh my goodness. I visit Cost Plus to stock up on all the fun yummy things I can’t seem to get anywhere else, like marzipan pigs during Christmastime, or chocolate hippos! They have a fantastic beer and wine selection (my husband and I are partial to the Belgian beer mixed packs), and everyone is super friendly and helpful.
I also highly recommend their customer rewards program; so far I haven’t found any reason why anyone that enjoys the store should go without it. Lots of awesome coupons, very few obnoxious emails (always a deal-​breaker for me), and a double-​punch coffee purchase on Wednesdays. Yay!

Love that I can get close out wines, buy Sake and beer and pick up some imported grocery items as well.
Wines: They have both local and imported wines that are priced well. They have wine reviews posted on a lot of bottles for more info on the flavors in the wine as well. They also carry a lot of the bubbly!!!
Sake and Beer: Have lots of imported beer from all the world and a decent selection of sake.
Tea and Coffee: one of the best places to buy… huge selection and they have a grinder on site as well.
Groceries: Love that they have hard to find pastas, sauces, and a huge spice selection. Also have a great foreign candy and cookie section.
Other: They have a lot of dishware and glassware, furniture, and knickknack stuff. Most of it very nice and affordable. Seasonal things go on sale regularly.
Try this place for it’s wine selection alone.

I love their candy selection. I also enjoy their furnishings. It is similar, in aesthetic to Pier 1 or West Elm. They have super cute seasonal tumblers and napkin rings, that sort of thing.
Boyfriend is never impressed with (and frequently bemoans) the rotation of beer. IPAs with a bottled by/​best by date from 6 months ago. Me, I ain’t care ’bout that.
What’s good? Good selection of coffee… they also have a customer loyalty program, 6 bags to get one free, I think. Tons of Euro candy (that I love), lots of little sample sized snacks (single serving NUTELLA?!), Voss water in the big bottles, and a TON of wine. Lamps. Gift wrap. Kitchen tools.
Staff is friendly and knowledgeable.
I’m a fan.

in store right now and the girl at the register w/​the straight mousy hair and light eyes is a total lazy snob! I was debating on asking her a question, but didn’t want to disturb her negative eye rolling at people. Just heard her tell someone who came in for boxes some sham story about how she couldn’t have a wine box when customers know they can! The poor girl needs to find a new job because customer service isn’t for her!!! It’s not the first time I’ve run into this negative nancy, but then to hear her smart ass attitude once the other person left like ENOUGH ALREADY STFU Biatch!!! I really miss the old staff that worked here years ago! it seems like every time your in there you end up listening first job type ppl complaining!!!
by the way I bought a kite for 9.99 at the world market and found safeway selling the same exact kite for 4.99! WTF???

Interesting, Fun & Yummy Shopping!
This is a great place to window shop-​just for the fun of it. Get a hand basket on the way in… before you know it it will be filled with unique items, imported gourmet goodies & kitchen widgets.
Warning! you may become addicted to the killer sales.
Staff was friendly & helpful (offering to get me a cart when my basket was filled to overflowing).

I enjoy this store. I visit it when spending summers in Hood River. It has the same stuff as my store in Scottsdale, AZ minus the sales tax. I love the Orange Ginger marmalade. It has a wonderful unique flavor.

This is a cool spot to hit when you are looking for something a little different. Went in there the other day and they had some good deals on furniture. I have gotten my dad some of the unique candy for father’s day last year.

I can get my wine, a few home decorations, a last minute gift, some kitchen items, unusual/​maybe kinda hippy curtains, rugs, candles. Yes I know that even if it says «WORLD» it’s not really. mostly it should say Cost Plus China Market but there are some things from India as an example. It’s a go-​to store when I’m in need of something that’s a slight upgrade from say Freddys. It works for East County.

Great staff, great products, great prices and rewards program. The coffee and food rewards are phenomenal and the staff’s positive attitude and product knowledge keep us coming back.

So I was with my girlfriend at world market and after 10min of looking around we notice and employee was following us. We called her out and she said her manager wanted her to keep an eye on us. We asked the manager what was the problem, and she said «yes The other employee and i were watching you because you fit into a certian age group». When I told her that was exactly the same thing as racial profiling she back tracked real quick and said «oh well its her 2^nd day on the job i know you guys dont fit into that age group and ill have a talk with her»…funny how even a hint of legal action causes someone to change their fucking story

Love this place. They have some great deals. Good prices on wine, coffee, beer and food. Interesting selection of international dry goods. Fun place to hang out on a rainy day in Portland.
