Cash & Carry

Our small business fully supports this Cash & Carry. Easily one of the best stores in the fleet. Daniel (current manager) has an amazing staff that is friendly and helpful all throughout the day. Every business should be so lucky.
Selection and quality of product is fantastic. From produce to meats to kitchenware, we couldn’t do what we do without C&C Tigard.
Five stars, guys! Way to go.

I can’t believe this is the first time being in this shop even though I live within walking distance and passed by this place everyday. (well, it doesn’t help this Cash & Carry location sits directly across from the Tigard Costco. Hello samples and cheap pizza!)
While this place does cater towards food service businesses (or polygamist communes… haha I kid) the prices are the same whether you have a business or not. And the produce selection, especially the vegetables, are better than that of Costco. A lot of the prices are on par with if not cheaper than Costco too. (hello 3lbs of prewashed spinach for $ 3! And what is this, a giant bag of wild arugula for $ 7?!)
The meat section is impressive, both in price and selection but I didn’t buy any because 10 lb slabs of beef or pork are a tad overkill. (yes, all of the meat are HUGE slabs. Great for big barbecues and get togethers but not so great for a small family of 4)
And you gotta hit the syrup mecca: the aisle of glorious Da Vinci ($ 3.98), Torani ($ 4.19), and Monin ($ 5.49−5.98) syrups. Regular and sugar free.
The frozen food section was huge but browsing this section made me sad. All those pub foods and happy hour specials I consumed… turns out they probably came from places like this. Premade and frozen. :(
There’s a fair amount of the restaurant supply hardware (hotel pans, tongs, etc) here but the prices are kinda high (try Pitman’s or Rose’s for those) The bread aisle that sits directly in front of the restaurant supply equipment have a fair selection of Franz and Oroweat but the prices are on par with Costco (check out the Oroweat outlet store or the Franz outlet for super cheap bread.)
Check out was a breeze and the employees were quite friendly. And of unlike the name, they do indeed take credit cards. Even American Express so don’t feel like you need to walk in with a wad of cash. As long as you’re fairly knowledgeable about market prices, you can score some great deals here.
Looks like someone will be hitting this store more often!
sidenote: as an Asian, I want to mention that some of the Asian foods like rice and tobiko (orange fish roe that’s used in sushi rolls) are priced rather high. Might want to hit up H-​mart or Fubonn for that stuff.
I also want to give a shout out for their awesome sauce website. (

They have all their items on their website, with prices! You can check their website beforehand to see if they carry what you’re looking for or if you want to comparison shop beforehand.

This is related to the Smart & Final grocery stores in CA, but it’s definitely for bulk purchases and wholesale for restaurants. It mostly carries items in far larger sizes than the average home consumer can use, unless you’re planning a huge party.
But what I go for is the Torani syrup. They have an enormous selection of regular and sugar-​free syrups, at amazing prices. Like $ 3.87/bottle amazing! They have a couple other brands of syrups too, if you want to branch out and try other flavors.
No frills, low prices, open every day and they take Visa/​MC.

LOVE Cash & Carry. They have great prices and everything in bulk! This is a must for any business owner. Even if you aren’t stop in and check it out, there is such a great selection!

I don’t have costco/sam’s club memberships because I don’t think it’s necessary to buy giant tub of mayonnaise, ketchup, or any other GIANT food size items since my household only consist of my awesome self and my awesome DL. :-).
I stumbled to Cash & Carry because of my dear mom. She needed to stop by there. So we went, walked in, and I was not surprised with the selection of GIANTS goods here. Until I walked into their walk in freezer. I was pretty impressed with what I found in there. They have CHEESE. lots and lots of it. Not only the basic cheddar & American, but also gourmet cheese. You can hug a giant roll of Smoked Gouda.
Not only cheese, you can also slobber all over rolls of prosciutto (without other people knowing). I’m pretty impressed with the selection of cured meats here.
Also this is the place to shop for your spices. They have wide variety of spices in pretty big containers with affordable price. Cash & Carry really made me wish that I have a big ass family (not literally, but you know what I mean).
