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.

Absolutely the best MMJ experience I have had so far in the year I've had my medical card. Forget the glorified drug deals posing as caregivers, you won't get shake, thick stems, or seeds from NETA, you see what you order before you pay, no shady delivery guys or mixed up orders, poor excuses for missed appointments, and so far some of the best quality herb I have found here.
Prices are a little higher, $100 for a quarter and $350 for a gram, but I am fine with paying that for the time being given the quality, active % breakdown (THC, CBD, TAC, CBG, CBC, CBN, and THC-V), and tons of nice plump trichomes!
I'm quite comfortable stating here that I will never use another caregiver as long as NETA keeps operating at this service and quality level, with the exception of concentrates, but those should be coming soon.

Location is near Coolidge Corner. Parking lot is next to the bldg dedicated to Neta clients. People were very helpful. Everyone including patients were very friendly. Thank Chelsea for assistance and patience. She was dynamite. Very classy and well organized operation.

Amazon facility and the people are great.

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.

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

It is incredible to think that a place like NETA Brookline exists considering the sluggish and disorganized rollout of the Massachusetts medical marijuana regulations. The NETA Brookline property is a sight to behold. They truly invested so much time and resources to restoring an austere, yet underused building. They actually achieved at making a former stale bank so fudgin' cool! I really like how they tailored their natural, zen-like brand into the building's interior. Their security were so friendly, and led me straight in. Absolutely nothing shady about it. Once you're buzzed into the dispensary floor, just wow! The staff is incredibly inviting and authentic. They truly love making a connection with fellow patients and sharing a little bit of knowledge about cannabis. I was shown a great resource handbook and finally arrived at the dispensing station!! The associates who helped me were very professional, sympathetic, and kept abreast of the latest scrutinized cannabis research. The staff seems to rely on each other very well to feed on each others' talents. I felt like they listened to my concerns and provided excellent advice. I was shown showed a wide assortment of flowers from Flo OG, Facewreck, Tangerine Haze, and Walker Kush. The flower nuggets were perfectly medium sized and well trimmed and manicured. SO MANY AROMAS! Muskiness, citrusy, flowery. I got small samples of the 3 strains above (except Flo OG) and they all serve great purposes for my well-being. This organization is trailblazing the way for medical marijuana in Massachusetts and the East Coast. Thank you! 5 STARS!!!!!

Great selection and a great staff. Love those carmels

Great Buds, Menu is always consistent and random days they will have special strains that you learn about when you arrive. (there not even on the menu online! Good prices and first mass dispensary that lets you smell and see the flower before you purchase! NETA is also in the works of getting concentrates!!!! The bubble hash was phenomenal (around 67-88% TAC) and soon to have shatters crumbles and everything in-between! The edibles at NETA are good and strong. a little on the expensive side, but work really well!

Great location, parking not so great, but when room the lot in front is convenient. Flower always nice quality, decent variety. Concentrates are decent not impressed with taste, appearance, or potency but I realize it's a new market, hopefully they will embrace the concentrate scene, and start having some budders, crumbles, different strains from different manufactures, live resin. Edibles were not impressive at all, however Belgian chocolate was tasty

Would Recommend the Moonshine Haze and Jack Frost. Their GSC is extremely weak. Also noticed that some batches of certain strains that they keep in rotation often aren't consistent in potency. Some buds aren't cured or manicured well enough. I like NETA because it's clear they keep a record of what's good and what's not. They keep changing their goods but bring back effective strains. They keep a consistent variety. So if you like saliva over I dica, there's typically at least two kinds to pick from. You can also buy grams to sample strains. I dig this place....just keep the Jack Frost and Moonshine Haze in stock and I'll keep coming.

Every time I go to NETA Brookline I walk out with a big smile on my face. Very professional, always quality medicine

The staff was friendly, with the budtender at the full-service desk being extremely personable and informative. The lobby is very open with high ceilings. There were more people waiting than could fit in the roped off queue area for full-service due to reduced staffing during renovations. Waiting in line in a crowded lobby didn't make for a relaxing shopping experience.
I love that you can see and smell the flower product before purchasing and see it measured and packaged in front of you. The flower that I purchased was some of the most attractive, fresh, and aromatic flower I've come across.
There was no lot parking mid day on a weekday, but there was street and lot parking reasonable distances away.

Absolutely love it. Parking m? Not so sure, but I’m one of the lucky ones. The moment I first walked in was a huge gasp. What beautiful architecture and the staff all friendly and super busy. Love the quality of the products and the way they operate.

Enough of the brown nosed reviews and Willy Wonka references. NETA Brookline is not a good option for patients. Buds are Larf at best and usually come loaded with shake and sometimes a few seeds. At $350 per ounce, I expect actual nuggets and minimum 20% TAC.
As far as ease of access, this location is nearly impossible to get to for anyone with a car. Route 9 is a horror show.
I've been half a dozen times now. This weeks lineup was very disappointing. I felt like I was walking into an upscale restaurant the day after the head chef quit.
All I see if a fancy building and nice marketing. The flower is not worth the money. I have not tried the edibles but they are absolutely overpriced. I understand all new business have challenges to overcome. I hope NETA can make the necessary adjustments and start producing the quality buds that real MMJ patients deserve.

Last Saturday was my first official visit. I heard from a friend that went here before that it was amazing, and it is.
There is a small side parking lot that holds about 10 cars, and I think they have valet parking on weekends (not sure saw a guy with a shirt that said valet, didn't ask though)
SUPER secure, with 2 locked doors that you have to be buzzed into first. (Don't forget your IDs)
You go into the old bank, and are greeted by the smell of cannabis and a very friendly greeter that hands you a menu, and checks to see if this is your first time.
You have to fill out 3 pages of info, and then get in 1 of 2 lines. Express (few items, scanned and packed and you are on your way.
Or, you can go for the regular line, where you can talk about the product, smell and see your options.
I went with a friend and we both got the $49 deal (each) and has the nicest association (I believe her name was Laura, a total doll)
I can't wait to come back and pick up some new product.

Busy location but worth the wait. I travel from Natick and the first time process took me about 2 hours including travel time. I spent time in line chatting to friendly customers also patient to wait. The staff were very knowledgable, friendly and patient to allow you to decide what type of flower you are in need for. It has a small parking lot but it's helpful that a friendly police officer assists in directing traffic back on to route 9.

It’s nice

Parking is a nightmare. 13 spots TOTAL at my last visit (pre-recreational sales) I can only imagine rec sales will make it much more hectic.
Products are good, no complaints there. Decent selection available as well. New patient discounts are great.
My only issue besides terrible parking is that there always seems to be a line here (once again, I cant imagine rec sales made this any better) BUT you can avoid that by ordering ahead and picking up. Pickup is great and I was in and out in under 10 minutes.
Staff here is ok. This is the one shop I’ve been to so far that just didn’t seem to have happy workers. They were fine and I had no issues but it was the sort of interaction you’d expect from a high schooler working at mcdonalds, just kind of didn’t seem excited to be there or help people. Just my overall impression of the staff.
Traffic can be an issue depending on what time you go.
