Purchased a quarter of of Cobbler (its my favorite strain hence) it wasn't the best right out of the bag but it was just a little to dry for my taste. After an over night in a mason jar with a boveda pack it popped right back! Great taste and incredible strength! Im heading back today for some captains cake.

Not the worst of the four currently open dispensaries but next up from the bottom. Granted they are the newest.

Very secure. Was like going in a medium or max prison except no pat search. Only three strains available. A good dominate Sativa, Indica and mix. Bud tried The Indica and Sativa. Good quality but price was higher than I usually pay. Staff was friendly and helpful. Considering the minefield they had to navigate to finally open willing to pay a little more until things stabilize here in massachusetts. Would recommend my friends.

I love Central Ave. They have the best environment of any dispensary I’ve been to in Ma. Quality products and decent prices. However , Mike is the best budtender I’ve ever had. He was so nice and welcoming and extremely knowledgeable on my first visit , this is now my go to spot . I had some trouble with a purchase and was with another budtender and Mike appeared out of nowhere and immediately took care of my issue . My cartridge wasn’t working so I thought but it was my pen that had died. He had the budtender gift me a new pen . It’s funny ... my username on Leafly is something I heard Mike say on
My first visit . A+ service

Wow. Absolutely lovely in here. The inside is like you’re waiting for a spa treatment. You don’t have to wait in line, the super friendly and knowledgeable staff come to you for your order! When it’s ready they call you. For people like me who have a hard time standing for long, this is awesome. They also now deliver. I will 100% return again and after visiting most of the dispensaries in MA I think I’ve met my match!

Great atmosphere and service. Love the smooth flow. Never have to wait. Tried; RSO- great stuff!, Flower-always cured to perfection, PrerRolls- love of course, Terp cartridges with reintroduce terpenes -tasty, Honey sticks- perfect in tea or as a snack. What else can I say, the place is great! Keep on doing what you do!

I'm loyal to C. A. C. C. I. Because they stand by their name. Compassionate care is what I have received each and every time I go. The staff, from the fair but stern security, to the patient advocates are professional, provide an important service and do a quality job.

I was in the neighborhood one day, and I found this place. With my trusty medical card in hand I stopped in. The choices were off the chain. I got myself Girl Scout Cookies and I was so high, I thought I was a little Girl Scout selling cookies. Awesome atmosphere, very welcoming. If I lived near there I would go more.

A very good dispensary with super nice employees, a pleasant atmosphere, and potent effective products. Their Girl Scout Cookies brand and also Jack Herer do the job well. This is the one to visit.

Good bud the service could be faster and the pax pods are outrageously overpriced.If they came down on there prices I think more people would come out to there dispensary
2 thumbs up for this dispensary. I've been to many of them but compassionate Care is one of my favorites. I used the online order through Leafly and it was very convenient. In and out in 5 minutes even with filling out 1st time paperwork. Highly recommend.

Best Dispensary I have tried. The best Flower quality I have seen. The customer service is exceptional, very friendly, and informative. The prices are steep is the only drawback. The best all around I highly recommend!
Gotta say love this place great flower the people that work there are very friendly and professional I drive 45 min but it worth it will definitely recommend

As a new patient, I've been visiting all my local dispensaries, looking for a home base. On the fifth try I finally found it at Central Ave. I felt comfortable from the minute I stepped up to the door and was greeted, and Jenna made it so easy to talk about what I needed and why. Plus they carry my all time favorite strain which no one else seems to have. The whole experience was a win for me, and even though it's further away from my house than others, Central Ave will be my place.

This is my favorite medical dispensary in the Lowell, MA area. The staff is great, they are professional, very knowledgeable and nice. They are very easy to talk to. They have great deals throughout the week and you can't beat their order online & pickup in-store service! I highly recommend Central Ave Care! 🤓👍🏼👍🏼

Most of the budtenders are extremely helpful.
I enjoy coming here because you're in and out. Sometimes less than a minute. Which is huge for me. Also love the $200 off card for newbies and renewers. Staff is over the top friendly. In my experience, I enjoy the edibles they've carried. Not a huge fan of inhouse edibles. But the outsourced stuff is great. Flower is a hit or miss. Like most places for most people. That wedding cake is fireee. Very powerful. The strawberry crunch bar edible is fire. Had me laughing my ass off. The rythm carts are fire. Awesome for stealth medicating. I've spent a lot finding what I like. So hopefully this helps you.
I love Central Ave!
This was stop #2 from up by NH to Central MA on December 8th. The atmosphere here was substantially better than Patriot Care Lowell but still a bit unwelcoming. Rather than feeling like you can look around, it was more of a "have a seat, we'll get to you". The staff were friendly and there were no issues but it didn't feel as open or welcoming as other places we've been to.

This dispensary told to make an appointment, so I made an appointment and came in. I spent at least 30 minuets going over the edible list with a women working behind the counter and talking about my very serious food allergies. She seemed knowledgeable bringing out a printed list showing which products have what ingredients in them and taking another 30 minuets going over what edibles would be safe for me. After everything I ended up leaving happy(so I thought). ONLY when I got home I went to eat one of the new edibles, as I am about to put the edible in my mouth I reed the package the edible came in (habit that has saved me many times!) and the package clear as day had something I would of had an Anaphylactic reaction to! I almost had to go to the hospital because the edibles they assured me would be safe were in fact NOT safe! Realizing this I checked the other edibles, this dispensary sold me 4 Different products that would have landed me in the hospital for an Anaphylactic allergic reaction!!! The worst part of all this is when I called the dispensary to tell them what had just happened they did NOT care at all and offered me nothing! Do NOT go here! They do not care about you as a medical patient! Extremely scary and shocking that a medical dispensary would do something so dangerous and not even care! Please do NOT go here! Please do your research and go to a dispensary that is more medical and less recreational.

Can anyone shed light on the cost of o.pen cartridges compared to the price at atg in Salem? This place and atg are the only ones who seem to carry them. I'm giving them 4 stars just because o.pen cartridges are the highest quality imo.

Over priced and not good quality had seeds in my jack herra and I can say for a fact this is not quality medicine for the price not to mention they are 5 years behind everyone technology wise and mentally wise

If I could’ve given a negative five stars for quality I’d hit that. Worst prices in the state, won’t stack discounts (drive 20 min and they got you), plus the bud is TRASH . 😂 I promise you won’t regret going elsewhere.
