Ascend Cannabis Dispensary - New Bedford — Attraction in New Bedford

BUYERS BEWARE! THE PRICES ARE CHEAP FOR A REASON! The quality of the flower/product at this dispensary is EXTREMELY inconsistent and hit or miss. Their “in-house” brands, along with pretty much ALL other brands sold (All that I have tried, I have tried most of them) CONSTANTLY ROTATE which growers they are buying from, as a result you really NEVER KNOW if what youre buying is going to be good/🔥 or not, you can grab a strain you bought and LOVED just a week prior but the next time you buy it its garbage and tastes nothing like the strain is supposed to because it is from an entirely different batch, plant and grower. The problem lies in the varying quality between different growers and in Ascends lack of quality-control. The staff WILL NOT tell you who produced/grew the particular strain you are interested in and you are forced to place an order for product prior to standing in line and paying for it, the product is retrieved from a secure back room once you get to the register so you have no way of changing your mind or switching strains/your order once they bring it out to you, which is the only time you are able to check THC% and who produce/grew that product. Besides the issue of inconsistency, 70% of the cannabis brands they carry COMPLETELY LIE in regards to the products testing and THC count/percentage, so you are not even able to base your decision on that as it is ALWAYS a lie and rated as higher THC% than it ACTUALLY is. If you had/have a hard time finding and buying cannabis on the street, if you are older and used to lower quality product, if youre tight on money atm or if you are just used to smoking mids or “pk/platinum kush” level bud then this dispensary will be GREAT for you. But if youre a seasoned smoker/connoisseur you will CERTAINLY be disappointed. However the staff is all very friendly/kind for the most part, if not a bit slow and space cadety (who would have guessed from a...

Cookies blueberry banana and any sativa farmers cut is straight fire. Stawberry Glue (strawberry cough & maui magilla glue cross) for Farmers cut is great would love to see that in store. Old Pal flower has been amazing. Best variety on a menu in southcoast MA. I would suggest moving completely away from distillate in everyway. The vapes all Live Resin or sauce. Too many distillate carts for ozone in my opinion. A switch to live resin for most would be awesome. Switching high wired to a hash diamond and kief infused would crush IMO.

Rove always loved their products until I learned they use botanical terpenes. Still taste great and like most distillate I dont cough like crazy. Great product regardless. Distillate infused prerolls are too harsh. Sand or kief will give the same percentage but not demolish your lungs. I smoke live rosin carts from good chem I don’t cough as it’s solventless, the ace select carts are amazing with the hydrocarbom extraction. Treeworks tinctures and their carts are expensive but so worth every penny. Older strains would be a suggestion for flower such as Green Crack, Blue Dream, Runtz white pink whatever just runtz, el bluntos are a top shelf item but also worth it. Love most third party brands but would love to cap it off with seeing more cookies strains or even just blueberry banana it sold fast. Percentage was 30 ans terps were 2.59% Good chem Flower would give this amazing store 5 stars.

Prices and quality cant be beat, they try but Ascend is where everyone is looking for pricing their menus. Flower...

What a shame I have to edit my review and rating on this place.. they actually have come a long way to improve the flower selection... unfortunately thier pricing on some vaporizer are completely out of line and overpriced. They set the price themselves. They manufacture the products themselves. There is nobody to blame but themselves. They have been selling these products in multiple states the commonwealth of Massachusetts is not thier first rodeo. Thier actions and subsequent explanations for thier actions are not acceptable.

Wow... Currently on a test run trying the new products.. so far im amazed, this place is really nice inside too . So far I find everything to be on point. Very nice prices and value. Quality is up there so far as well.

Edit.. so I have been back a few times.. no dissatisfaction... They have a really nice business model that I feel should be implemented state wide . Competitive third party offerings buoyed by own brand owned flower being offered at the floor price.. all dispensaries should take notes . This is the blueprint... Tiered third party from ground level to penthouse... All brand owned products come in just a touch lower.. this is how "you" move "your" own products... Dont let people you wholesale to sell your product for less.. you give the customers no reason to ever come and visit you.. ive seen too many in the industry hold the tough attitude and high price points on thier own grown flower in thier own retail stores... ...
