They Sell mid great quality Without the seeds, the Bud is brown. LOL smells like trash Doesn't matter what strain it is. It's OK for $10 a 8th no more 😂 Mostly, all the products they sell from other companies are good So you don't have to worry ☺ Just an honest review I've been to a lot of dispensaries I've been doing this since 8 years old. I used to get Mexican dookie back in the day that would get you higher with less headaches When I smoke your bud, it makes me fee Weird All of the concentrates. I would be careful smoking them too. They're all made from. Garbage cannabis I don't know if it's the solar panel or what But their shit sucks. 😂 👍🏼 ✌
starting to have a respectable selection of thc and cbd products. anything they carry from rev clinics in my opinion is always the best quality there. I've had the XJ-13, black mamba, bootylicious and stardawg from rev clinics and they by far are the superior company. commonwealth alternative care has some good wax and flower, but at times seemed to not trim there plants proper. curaleaf is good too but the headband flower was a bit leafy. some of the green gold group is a little less worthy with quality of the flower. my lucinda William's and ghost of leroy og were not very memorable as far as taste and smell. the queens mother goji isn't the best either but smokes pretty good. INSA I've only tried once recently but its good quality for sure. the ecto cooler eighth I bought was perfect.
Great spot that has become my number 1 for any cannabis product. I've been to 5 others in Mass and this one is better than any other in all ways. adequate parking, no standing outside, a store that actually was laid out correctly and possibly the smoothest process of any of them when purchasing. knowledgeable and friendly staff definitely make it the place to go

I have been loyally coming to Solar Therapeutics sinCe their opening week when they Had Headband, Super Silver haze, Lemon haze and GG4. I cannot say enough good things about This place! All of the staff are friendly and eager to assist customers. They are all trustworthy people who will do whatever they can to help you. Their is often a quick short line with good parking. They are a far superior choice to NEalternatives for sure. Check this place out! The only flother feedback I can give is that they should try to stock a few more strains of flour and grow their own strains like Bootylicious and Head and because they are so delicious and popular. Keep up the honest hard work guys!
Dispensary response:
Thanks for this amazing review! (And thank you for being a loyal Solar shopper!) Since we currently wholesale our products from other dispensaries we are limited in the strains we can get. However, we are expecting our first harvest in the spring time! We appreciate your feedback and are looking forward to serving you again in the future!

Ehh, I had the Blue Dream x Pink Champagne and the Lilac Diesel. both are pretty decent but for the prices they are charging, in my opinion its not worth it. those 2 strains were like 50 an 1/8 and it should of been worth 30 or 25 in my opinion. Flower feels dry when you break it up and the flavor and smoke has a ..."thin" feeling on exhale. not really a thick smoke that you would want but just very thin .

Being handicapped I found what I miss about a bar, is the stools, sometimes the store is busy, it would be welcoming perk
I placed an online pickup order to pick it up after work and I was in and out in less than 3 minutes. Super cool staff and a great vibe inside Solar. Keep up the good work you guys do. Thank you.
Dispensary response:
Thanks so much for the review! We appreciate it!

Place is Great 👍 & it cost money to get! Understand? Great Staff, College educated.
I have been to solar so many times I couldn't even count. It's been my favorite until today 3/18/20. I was probably their last customer. Showed up right before 10pm and had an online order for an $18 Blueberry cookies gram preroll. I drive back to westport to get home ready to smoke and opening the tube poured what looks like bud grinded to a powder (pretty much kief?) all over my sweatpants. A thin line of this trailing out of the tube. Touching the preroll itself was loose and basically crushed with the minimal pressure of my fingers. We tried to smoke it and nearly choked on powder that got sucked right into my throat from pulling. This thing won't even light. I just tried to break it up and put it in a pipe and this pull got kief all up in my throat and tongue. It's disgusting. Of course it's all sales final. I just wasted nearly $30 for nothing. This is frickin horrible that they legit sold me kief that I cant even frickin smoke. I'm so frickin aggravated; I'm legit never coming to this place again. Terrible. Thanks for ruining our night.
Dispensary response:
We are so sorry to hear that you had a poor experience. While all sales are final, we encourage all customers to contact the dispensary directly and ask to speak to a manager in the event that you are not satisfied with your product. We address situations such as this on a case-by-case basis.

Normally Solar is always reliable with online orders, but today I placed my order, the order was marked as filled and ready for pickup, and when I arrived 4 hours later, the order wasn't even picked and ready, and one of the 3 items had run out of stock.
Headband: 2/5
Super Silver Haze: 4/5
I have been to a few dispensaries in Mass over the summer and was pleasantly surprised with Solar. Two things they have over NE alternatives, online ordering and no lines. I picked up a bit of the Headband, the guy told me it was "leafy"... gee, don't oversell it or anything. I also picked up some of the super silver haze. The Haze is top shelf, well trimmed, great looking buds and even better effect... but dry (they still use pvc plastic tubes like my dealer).The headband, while I'd say high Mids quality dosen't retain the same beautiful appearance. leafy was an understatement! There are straight up stems and sugar leaf's sticking out of every, (broken up) bud. I'm okay with this as i know it's all sun grown, sacrificing fluffy nugs for proper flushing techniques and outdoor air is part of the game but this deffinitly leaves something to be desired.
Dispensary response:
Thank you for taking the time to stop by Solar Thera as well as leave this review. We are sorry to hear that you were not impressed with the quality of the headband strain. At this time we are wholesaling from local cultivators while we finish up our licensing process with the state. We do our best to secure the best wholesale product on the market. We hope that you will give Solar Thera another shot when we are cultivating our own product in the upcoming months!

I loved the atmosphere here and everyone was extremely nice and polite but I'm a former patient care Specialist or aka ( Budtender)and to be honest the bud tenders here dont know their product,they dont know their terpene profiles which every bud tender should know, and they dont have much knowledge or most general knowledge of the cannabis strains and products they sell. and SAYING ITS A INDICA,HYBRID,OR SATIVA doesn't mean anything to someone who actually knows the knowledge about cannabis but a wonderful dispensary overall will still be coming back here all the time but they need to either teach their budtenders about every aspect of cannabis or just hire people that actually have a passion for it and not people that are just looking for a job.
Dispensary response:
Thank you for stopping by Solar Therapeutics! We appreciate you reaching out. We are currently wholesaling our products from other dispensaries, so we do not receive their terpene profile testing. All of the products we receive go through testing, however terpene tests are not required for wholesaling. We just started our own cultivation, and are expected to have our first harvest around May. Once that occurs, all of our plants/products will have terpene testing done. Our budtenders will be able to read these in-depth terpene profiles and will have the extensive knowledge on all of our in-house flower. We look forward to seeing you again in the future!

Just a totally chill scene. Budtender was great (can't remember his name- young skinny guy with black hair). All the staff were happy and friendly- unlike the dispensary in Lowell- which is a complete drag.
They have samples in lucite that you can smell and inspect all the flower.
Pricing is way high compared to street pricing- but that's pretty much all Mass legal recreational pricing- and THEN you have to add 20% tax.
Good selection- next summer should prove to be better on pricing once they start cultivating their own.
Vape carts are 3x the street price- but these days, you are paying for legitimacy and peace of mind.
They sell bongs, pipes, and all other accouterments- pricing for that stuff is pretty average compared to head shops.
But again- it's all about the atmosphere- this is the way dispensary's should operate!
Dispensary response:
Amazing feedback. Thank you for your kind review, we appreciate your business!!

This place has a lot of potential but they're missing their mark. Eighths for $5-10 more than their competitors. Inconsistent product. No medical. I understand they've been slow in growing their own products but what have you been doing during the past 6 months? The place looks great, friendly staff and plenty of parking but it's all about the products and deals. Without those, people look elsewhere.
Dispensary response:
Hi there! We appreciate the review and the feedback. We hope you'll stop in again sometime soon to check out our expanded inventory!

The staff is always helpful and friendly. My order is always ready quickly and accurately.

I am so glad I decided to stop here after finding it here on Leafly. I was presently surprised by the level of hospitality. When I came in Jess (or Jenn?) came right up to me and asked with great care what she could help me with. I have been dealing with some great amounts of pain lately and she was ready to jump in and navigate that and products with me until a budtender was available. She brought me over and introduced me to Jared who thoughtfully went through recommendations with great knowledge and care. He made me feel very comfortable in my choices and so far so good. I was just really taken back by the amount of care and teamwork. Jess (Jenn?) also came back over to see how we made out. Beyond just buying “weed” this place cares.
Dispensary response:
Thank you for stopping by Solar Therapeutics! Jess and Jared are great team member; it's great to hear you had a terrific visit with us! We appreciate you taking the time to write us this incredible review! See you soon!

Ordered the Headband online, when I arrived the budtender warned me it wasn't quite the dense nugs as the other strains, bit fluffier. I still purchased but TOTALLY appreciate the honesty. Most places just take your money & don’t consult honestly. (Looking at you Verilife & NE Alternatives). Stuff turned out to be pretty good anyway. I’ve paid more for worse (again, looking at you Verilife & NE Alternatives & NETA Brookline). I’ll be back soon now they have new strains & no lines!

We are happy to hear that you appreciated the honesty of our team members! We are doing our best to secure quality product while we finish up the cultivation licensing process with the state.

Weed looks bad, tastes bad, and smells bad it smelled musty and dry absolutely no stickiness seems like they need some new direction in the back of the house
Everyone I've had the pleasure of dealing with here has been awesome. While the frequency of which items get sold out is frustrating at times I understand the process and can't wait for the harvest so I can try y'all's brand instead of wholesale goods. Keep up the great work, I know I'll keep coming back.
Dispensary response:
Thanks for stopping by Solar Thera! We appreciate you taking the time to write us a review! We are looking forward to continuing to serve you after our first harvest in the Spring!

Love this place. Been a few times and the service is always great from enter to exit. Everyone on the staff is knowledgeable, Jess always greats me with a smile, she really makes it known that she cares about you and is ready with thoughtful suggestions. Prices are comparable and worth what you are getting, but still looking forward to when they have their own product. I really can’t say enough about this place.
Dispensary response:
Thank you for stopping by Solar Therapeutics! Jess is great, isn't she?! We appreciate your kind words and taking the time to share your experience with others!

Out of all the medical and recreational dispensaries I’ve been to, Solar is by far my favorite. The people are awesome, and the atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and there is zero rush. You walk in, they scan your ID, and you’re greeted with a menu, and there is always someone walking around ready to help or answer questions. There are multiple sniffers on display, so when it’s time to check out, there’s no line of indecisive people. They’ve got it right!!

I went for my first time today and I plan on coming back! The staff was super friendly from the security guards, the people at the front desk and the budtenders, all were extremely helpful and made me feel comfortable!
I grabbed 3 prerolls, 2 Death Star and 1 Bootylicious and while I think they were a little overpriced, I still believe you are getting what you pay for! I hope they have some sort of deals in the future! Overall 5/5!
