When is Neta going to lift all limits and you had expand your growing Facility and you still have limit on your Flower and Menu has change. Seems that you are getting rid of very good Flower and replacing it with unknown or odd Flower! For example I see you no longer have PBK, tough to grow but, a very good MMJ . A lot of us miss Mel, she was a great Person and a very good GM she was always trying to go the mile for every one. She was very Fair !!!!!
Dispensary response:
Thanks for taking the time and writing this review. While we have recently raised limits to 1/2 oz, we are indeed working on a larger growing facility. We are expecting that you should see a bump in production later this year. For now, we are making sure the space we do have is used to it's fullest extent. This requires filtering out the strains that just don't yield enough and adding some that do. NETA chooses strains that give patients as many options as possible for their needs - for instance, we know we have patients, such as yourself, that find Platinum Bubba Kush works well for them, and we try to get that into the stores as often as nature allows. In fact, we have just sent a batch to testing a few days ago and expect that in the stores in the next week or two.
With care, The NETA Team

My first and by far my favorite dispensary. The experience is always good. I've been to a few, NETA is always the best.

This place was great, staff was polite and the atmosphere was not intimidating. The menu was easy to navigate and read. The product was good quality however I would like to see more variety in types of concentrates considering they do not carry CO2 distillates

I stopped in for my first ever visit to any dispensary and really enjoyed it. The staff was amazingly helpful and willing to answer any and all questions. The paperwork was quick and I was in and out within a lunch break. Which was unfortunate because I could have hung out and talked with these guys for hours. They also have a review book where patients and employees provide reviews of different strains that have been available. This way you can get the opinion of a bunch of people while you wait. It's fantastic and the reviews are mostly well done. The building is also very cool, being in an old bank and all.
I did have one issue that I plan to address tomorrow morning which is that I bought extra strength lotion, but the bottle reads Regular Strength. Not a huge deal, just gives me a reason to go grab another bottle and a few more pre-rolls (which are fantastic if you wanna sample a strain).

Neta staff are very helpful in explaining which strains work for what pain and I could only say that majority of the strains I get work for multiple conditions besides the ones I'm dealing with. Keep the buds going and awesome place as well.

I've been to Brockton. I've been to Salem. I've tried multiple delivery services. And now, I've truly found the 1st great MMJ dispensary in Massachusetts. NETA is fantastic in so many areas: Product!, service, atmosphere...did I say Product? All their flower is beautiful and plentiful (they had 10! strains when I went this weekend). It's not per-packaged, they let you see it and smell it and they weigh it out in front of you. Did I mention the great service? It's clear that management has told everyone to be super-friendly, and it shows! Everyone I encountered were really helpful and cheery and nice. There are so many positives: the atmosphere is pretty amazing, their building is beautiful, with couches and a very chill vibe. Their packaging and marketing materials are professional and pretty beautiful actually. How about that there is an Express Line and a Full Service Line. You can fill out a menu of what you want, sit on the couch and they call your name when your order is ready. Did I mention that the bud is killer?!!! Go to Brookline now! This place is truly the 1st great dispensary in Massachusetts!

Beautiful interior, prices are decent & the products are top notch. It sucks that they have a 7g flower limit but it's understandable because so many people patronize this place. NETA has provided the blueprint for all dispensaries in MA to follow.

Meh............ the best thing about this dispensary is the fact that I can get kief by the the gram.
June 25, 2017
Looked at your menu why no vap cartridges
Dispensary response:
Hi - Thank you for the review! We have cartridges - as a matter of fact, right now we have 12 strains and strengths of our RemPen cartridges and 3 varieties of our APEX 1000+ TAC distillate-based vaporizer cartridges at both of our dispensaries. Feel free to check our menu here: www.netacare.org

These limits are getting ridiculous, 1 gram of shatter per patient? And they finally get kief back on the menu and there's a limit of 1 gram per patient. I drive a pretty good distance to get to this dispensary just like 80% of your patients and these limits just make me want to stop coming here. It's getting awful I understand a lot of patients come here because it's arguably the best dispensary in the state of mass but expand your growing facility to accommodate your patients not waste money on redesigning a website multiple times or adding silicone to your grams of shatter which lasted for a week at most.
Dispensary response:
Hi there. We hear your concerns and we want to help you as best as we are able. Like yourself, we are very much looking forward to offering a broad menu with eight strains and a full variety of concentrates. Our team is working hard to provide an ample supply of flower so that the limits can also be removed. We’ve been maximizing flower canopy space and have recently finished fully phenotyping all of our strains, which has resulted in an increase in flower density. We are also in the process of expanding the square footage of our cultivation facility to allow for even more robust production in the upcoming months - but as you know, cultivating cannabis takes time. We’re hoping for our first harvest from the new space, and a major bump in our production capacity, early in 2017. We took the time to update our website to provide patients with even more enriched information. Now, patients can see genetic background of strains, descriptions taken from actual patient feedback we've received. This way, patients can see a broad spectrum of effects with our medicine to help determine what may work best for them.

Over the summer I gave these guys a not so good review as I wasn't impressed with flavor of the flower. I would like to recant that review as I believe they have stepped up their game a little. I condsider myself a connoisseur and I am huge on flavor. The hurricane strain and GSC are pretty impressive. They tend to be regular strains which is great. The Tangerine Haze shatter, and 501st OG wax are some of the best tasting concentrates I have ever dabbed. Woohoo! One thing though... dear NETA: if you read this can you attempt to add a legit sour diesel strain to your line up? You know... the real sour diesel for us people big on flavor
Dispensary response:
Thank you for your review and suggestion. We will pass this along to our cultivation team. Thanks for being a NETA patient and we look forward to seeing you again. With care, the Team at NETA.

As a former San Francisco, CA resident and CA medical card holder, Brookline NETA shares all the qualities of a high end SF dispensary. The Apothecarium (http://apothecariumsf.com) of Massachusetts. From the minute you walk in the door through the whole process a great experience. They have great staff; pleasant helpful and knowledgeable,architecturally the most beautiful store ever, and largest selection of products of any dispensary I've seen locally. Always great flowers & concentrates and the edibles are of superior quality. All products professionally packaged and come with the most comprehensive labeling I've ever seen, which is very helpful with dosing. I live an hour away and there are closer places but NETA Brookline is my only choice.

Best dispensary in MA wonderful service and top quality flowers, very happy with the discount as well.

This location is my absolute favorite dispensary, it was the first that I went to and it's had me hooked ever since. Everyone is extremely nice and helpful and you are always greater with a warm smile. The selection here is top notch and they will almost always have some kind of deal or strain that's a reduced price. Even if I lived an hour away I would make the trek to come here, it's definitely worth it.

Regarding the comment below by Callaway500 about the lower THC Buddha's Sister and the response by Neta: I am the opposite when it comes to Buddha's Sister (one of my favorite strains) and other strains, the lower THC (especially if its 15% or lower) is what I need. Anything over 15% not only doesn't help me but causes discomfort and extreme anxiety/paranoia. I've tried CBD strains and they don't help as much as a low THC strain.. Please please please don't get rid of all of your lower THC phenotypes.. I would imagine that I'm not the only patient that needs lower THC strains. I realize you can't help everyone's specific needs but I hope some of the lower THC strains remain in rotation.
Dispensary response:
Hi Hecate2016, we hear you - having a selection of lower testing strains is something many patients like yourself have requested. Although we are discontinuing the lower testing Buddha's Sister and keeping the higher testing phenotype, we plan on keeping several lower testing strains in the rotation, so there is something for everyone.

This dispensary definitely worth a visit . They do have a great atmosphere, very friendly personnel, it was my first visit yesterday ,i was greeted very nicely. So, if you leave in a Boston area you should check that place out. They have everything needed for vaping too. I only was buying buds though and was very satisfied with a quality and medicinal strength of them

The place is a great dispencery, but since there aren't any others around to compete with them, they treat their business like a monopoly. The prices for everything are through the roof. It is for medical patients only, so why take advantage of us like this?
Dispensary response:
Hi Zachi, thanks for your feedback. We regularly monitor pricing at other dispensaries to ensure that we are in line with the Massachusetts market.

I've made two trips here, & I must say it was a great experience, tons of options & a friendly attentive staff.
If you know what you're getting, I would highly recommend their express line.
Not the greatest parking situation, so be prepared, you may have to take a short walk..
Now, I've only made two trips, because it's about an hour away from where I live, my hope is NETA considers expanding into the Metro West area.

Seems the is a drop off on potency of Arcata facewreck, tangerine haze, Buddha Sister by up to 4/5%. Hope they can be more consistent with the flowers. Oils and concentrates are not the only meds. Love the site and the service though.
Dispensary response:
Hi Callaway500, Thanks for your feedback. We hear you - having a wide spectrum of THC %'s on our menu is what we are after.
It should be clear that the physical quality of our flower has been improving over time, so we are wondering the same thing. Frankly, NETA employees/patients are reporting similar effects for the same strains with varying test results, so we are chalking this up to lab test result variability. That being said, our team is continuing to make every effort to provide our patients with a broad range of THC % in our flower. Thanks again and we look forward to seeing you again soon.

Didn't have the best experience. I wanted to try out the edibles so I bought a Hybrid 100mg Dose Bar and Sativa 100mg Dose Bar. Well I've never had edibles before so I was cautious and took 5 mgs. I felt absolutely nothing. So I slowly started increasing my dose to 10 mgs, 15,20, etc. I was all the way up to 45 mgs before I decided to stop. I literally felt absolutely nothing. I'm a new smoker, only have been smoking about 9 months. I don't have a high tolerance, actually I have a very low tolerance and it doesn't take much to get me where I need to be. I'm not sure if they made it wrong or what. I tried on empty stomach. full stomach, partially full stomach and nothing. I was really disappointed. They had a good menu though, but the only thing is its a far distance for me, so its really not worth going back, at least until prices drop. I spent $60 on 2 semi decent tasting chocolate bars.
I gotta say the staff is great though and very knowledgeable.
Dispensary response:
Hi there- we apologize that our PSAs did not inform you of finding your right dose. Our advice is to do exactly as you did: start low and go slow. You can always increase you dosage, and sometimes edibles can take up to 2 hours to fully take effect. Edibles can affect patients in different ways - and sometimes, edibles are not for everyone. Some patients have a lower tolerance with flower, but a higher tolerance for infused products. Additionally, some patients' digestive systems negatively impact bio-availability of cannabinoids for edible products. When infusing edibles, we utilize medium chain triglycerides that were developed specifically to improve the bio-availability of lipid based substances. However, for some patients, uptake still is not maximized. If you found that this product wasn't the right fit for you, you are always welcome to bring it back for an exchange or credit. We would recommend trying a tincture on a future visit, as this means of ingestion is sublingual and bypasses the GI tract. Thanks.
