Tender Loving Empire — Local services in Portland

My go-to for the best gifts for anyone in my life! Unique jewelry, delicious speciality food items, awesome T-shirt’s, wonderful card selection, luxurious self-care products, etc. etc! The staff at every location is always wonderfully friendly and helpful! I immediately feel happier as soon as I walk in the door at TLE! If you’re having a bad day, I recommend stopping in TLE for some gorgeous artisanal treats and the best energy to brighten your day! I guarantee you’ll leave in a better mood. Also, highly recommend their care packages. The packaging itself is amazing and the products are all wonderful! You can select one of their beautifully curated care package or select your own items and make it into a care package (crinkle paper, cute box and nicely styled) for just $6. Your loved ones will feel extra special! Definitely a gem...

Hey TLE, You're my new go to for sending gift baskets from Portland. I like the selection & the easy shipping. My recipients say the best things about TLE.

So glad to have a go-to spot for great gifting. You're my right hand partner, thanks

In '20 we did 90% of shopping through online community & small business orders. TLE is one of the consistently high quality shops with local gifts, that I can turn to. And it does not take forever to ship things out.

Backoff Made in Oregon jam, TLE got real art & creators. Step down Made Here pdx, that leather keychain is expensive and not quite a gift like this cookbook & candle & screenprint. (Love ya both but TLE is the SPOT.)

Great local gifts, great service &online shopping that doesn't stink!...

Not sure if the whole store is racist or just this one clerk that was there today 9/15 around 5:30pm. Three of us (Latinas) walked in and were not greeted at all by the woman who was there with a hat on behind the counter. She was wroting something down and never bothered to look at us or say a word. The store was empty till we walked in. She didn't acknowledge us at all as we walked around looking for souvenirs before our flight but you better believe the moment a white man walked in minutes after us, she gleefully said hi. We left...
