Western Front
About Western Front
Sitting in Central Square Cambridge on Massachusetts Avenue, Western Front carries a 4.7-star average across roughly 127 reviews. The location is independent and not affiliated with other Western Front-branded stores, a distinction worth knowing if there's ever a customer service question across locations. Reviewers love the staff personality, with budtenders described as friendly, funny, and easy to chat with on repeat visits. The convenience for Central Square residents is hard to beat, and shoppers from elsewhere in Cambridge make the trip because of the people behind the counter. Hours run 11 AM to 9 PM most weekdays, extending to 10 PM Thursday through Saturday, and tightening to 11 AM through 6 PM on Sunday. A handful of negative reviews flag pricing concerns and payment glitches between point-of-sale and Cash App, so reviewing the receipt at checkout is a fair habit. Otherwise, it's a familiar neighborhood spot with personality.
- Central Square convenience
- Funny, friendly budtenders

Customer Reviews
never actually open. is this place even operating?
Update: Prices are up, so is ripping people off. This location is not associated with any other western front's. The others have been bought out by someone else. So trying to get anyone to help me was not possible. There was a glitch when making a purchase, Western Front says it's Cash app fault. Cash app says it was Western Front's fault. Either way, $46 was gone. I disputed it with cash app and it was denied because I had no proof that I did not receive the product. Western Front refused to give me ANY kind of proof. The person at the counter kept repeating "It will bounce back in a few days" loudly and wouldn't let me speak, per usual. He has done this to me before. I ordered 1 gram of banana cream, at $34.99 on the menu. I got there, was given 500 mg. I didn't realize it until I got back home. I went back and the lady at the window said that it doesn't matter what the price is on the menu. And a bunch of other stuff about taxes that had nothing to do with my issue. I told her you need to honor what's on the menu. She proceeded to tell me that she would have given me 30% off something else but could not exchange the cartridge. But she said I was too rude and needed to leave.I just asked questions. I have been going there since they opened. I won't be going back.
As a Central Square resident, this is a convenient location for a dispensary for me, but even if I had to travel, I would. I support all of the dispensaries but between this location and the Harvard Square location(I just discovered), the budtenders warrant patronage. They are always friendly and funny and I genuinely enjoy chatting with them. Happy these guys are a part of the neighborhood.
Bought a housewarming gift for a friend and had a great experience. Great staff and amazing products.
The best one with good customer service , they make you feel welcome all the time
