About Union Twist, Inc
On Cambridge Street in Allston, Union Twist holds a 4.4-star average across 202 reviews. Recent ownership changes appear to have shifted the customer experience meaningfully, with longtime regulars flagging discontinued reward programs, fewer ended deals, and higher prices across the menu. Earlier reviews still highlight Flower Friday promotions and a deep selection, so the picture varies depending on when someone shopped. Operating hours run 9 AM to 9 PM most days, narrowing to 9 AM through 8 PM on Sunday. Medical cardholders in particular have mentioned changes to the rosin and live resin lineup that affected what they came in for. New customers may find the storefront still well-stocked and convenient for the Allston area, but longtime patrons may want to confirm specific brands and pricing before driving in. The location stays accessible for Boston students and residents on the Cambridge Street corridor.

Customer Reviews
WHERE TO BEGIN ! This is long overdue. This place , hands down , best dispensary in area. Great pricing - great sales. FLOWER FRIDAY - Hundred out the door any zip! SHEEESH. Plus they have everything. Any day you go there is a great special going on.
Stopped in on 11/17/25 after hearing they’ve changed ownership. What a bummer! Their rosin/live resin selections are awful!! They’ve removed all the good rosin carts as well. Total bummer, I was a loyal customer, even as a med card holder. Not anymore! Corporate overlords ruin everything!! Thanks capitalism! *Update* on 11/18/25 it looks like they’ve brought all the good products back to the menu. Also, the staff at Union Twist are awesome people! Kind, friendly and helpful. Update on 12/23/25 this place smells like corporate overlords. AVOID.
I genuinely feel bad for staff. The previous reward system was thrown out, various deals were ended and prices were jacked up sometimes as much as $10. Just rub in extra salt, they stopped rounding change in your favor. I used to love this place, it sucks what capital can do to cannabis. Weed for the people! New management sucks. I hope it was really worth it to destroy a local chain, guys.
Alston Dispensary was very good before, the price was very low, today I bought from there, they charged 50 percent more, I don't like it, please reduce the price a bit, I want to tell everyone, if you don't want to reduce the price, don't go there, I will send you another location, it is very cheap there, I was coming here because I used to get it cheap here, but you people have increased the price a lot, this is not good, reduce it and I also request people to file complaints here to reduce the price, this is too much, 50 percent up, people have done too much.omg ddaaammmmmm
New owners from Chicago Jacked up the prices. Union used to have premium cannabis at affordable prices Not anymore! New owners have ruined this dispensary! They prioritize profit margins over their customers. But again they are not from Boston
