If you want Inman Square pre-rolls, the closest shop is at 200 Monsignor O’Brien Highway, Cambridge, MA 02141, a short hop east of the square. The menu there carries regular pre-rolls, infused pre-rolls, and the in-house Lobster Pot brand, and you can browse it online and order ahead for pickup.
Shopping is for adults 21 and older only, and you need a valid government ID showing your age at the door. Parking is free, so you are not circling Cambridge Street looking for a spot.

Where Inman Square Sits Between Our Stores
Inman Square straddles the Cambridge-Somerville line, so two shops sit within a short trip of the intersection. Head south and east toward Kendall Square for the Cambridge store, or northwest toward Union Square for the Somerville one.
| Store | Address | Nearby area |
|---|---|---|
| Cambridge | 200 Monsignor O’Brien Highway, 02141 | Kendall Square |
| Somerville | 524 Somerville Ave, 02143 | Union Square |
| Athol | 946 Main Street, 01331 | North central Massachusetts |
Athol is a long drive out Route 2, not a quick errand from Inman, though it is handy if you are already heading west for the weekend. Walking or biking times from the square change block by block, so pull it up in a map app rather than guessing.
All three take online orders for in-store pickup, and each has free parking, which is covered in more detail in this rundown of free parking and online pickup across Cambridge, Somerville, and Athol. Cannabis is never mailed or shipped, so every order is handed over in person at the counter. If Union Square is the easier run for you, here is what to expect from recreational cannabis shopping near Union Square in Somerville.
Getting From Inman Square to the Cambridge Store
The run from the square is short and heads southeast, toward the river and Kendall Square. Drive, bike, or walk it depending on your day, and pull up live routing in a map app instead of guessing, since the Cambridge Street and Hampshire Street lights back up at different hours.
The address is 200 Monsignor O’Brien Highway, Cambridge, MA 02141, and parking on site costs nothing, so you are not feeding a meter app while you shop.
Sort out these four things before you head over:
- Today’s hours, posted on the Cambridge store page online
- A valid government-issued ID showing you are 21 or older
- 857-588-1301, if you want to confirm something first
- Your pickup order number, if you placed one ahead
ID gets checked at the door on every visit, not just your first, so keep it somewhere easy to reach rather than buried in a bag.
What’s in the Pre-Roll Case in Cambridge
Two categories sit in the case: classic pre-rolls, which are ground flower rolled in paper, and infused pre-rolls, which are rolled with concentrate added. They are labeled and priced differently, and both share the menu with flower, vapes, edibles, concentrates, tinctures, and topicals.
In-house Lobster Pot rolls sit next to outside brands, and the mix shifts week to week as new lots land. The live menu is the only accurate source for what is in stock right now. If you want a deeper read on the two styles, this breakdown of infused versus regular pre-rolls and how to compare price covers it.
Every listing on the menu gives you the same five details to read:
- Brand, in-house or partner
- Strain name and strain type
- Weight per roll, listed in grams
- Count per pack, single or multipack
- Current price, shown pre-tax
For anything beyond those facts, ask a budtender what came in fresh and how the grower describes that strain.
Singles or Multipacks for a Quick Run
A single gets you one roll at the lowest upfront cost, which is the easy call when you are testing a strain or a brand you have not tried. Multipacks usually bring the per-gram price down, and they cut repeat trips across O’Brien Highway when traffic is heavy.
The catch is that multipack rolls are often smaller, so a five-pack can hold less flower than two singles. Compare total grams, not the number of tubes in the box. Mixed-strain packs give you variety in one purchase; single-strain packs keep every roll the same.
Four things worth doing before you decide:
- Add up weight per roll times count, then divide by price
- Decide whether you want one strain or a mix
- Look at the package date on the box at pickup
- Ask your budtender which lot came in most recently
Store whatever you buy sealed and well out of reach of kids and pets. Current pre-roll bundles are worth a look if the math points toward a multipack.
Order Online and Pick Up in Cambridge
Browse the Cambridge store’s live menu, filter to pre-rolls, and place the order for in-store pickup. The order is held at the counter at 200 Monsignor O’Brien Highway and handed over in person, since cannabis is never shipped or mailed.
Bring the government ID that proves you are 21 or older. The Boston Garden cannot accept medical marijuana cards due to state regulations, but welcomes anyone 21 or older.
Standing discounts apply every visit with valid ID:
- Veterans, 15% off with a valid military ID
- Medical card holders, 15% off with a valid card
- Cannabis industry professionals, 15% off with a valid ID
- Anyone over 55, 10% off with a valid ID
Rotating specials run at all three stores, so look at the specials page the day you shop rather than relying on last week’s prices. Loyalty club sign-up is handled at the Cambridge location, and 857-588-1301 answers questions about payment or a specific item before you make the trip over.
Cambridge or Somerville for Your Pickup
From the square, Cambridge is the southeast run and 524 Somerville Ave, near Union Square, is the northwest one. Both stores keep pre-rolls in the case, both take online orders for counter pickup, and both have free parking, so distance is not what separates them.
Menus are store-specific. A brand, strain or pack size sitting on the Somerville menu may not be on the Cambridge one, and the reverse happens just as often. Picking the closer store can cost you a shot at the exact roll you wanted; going after that roll costs you the longer trip.
Three ways to settle it before you move:
- Filter both live menus to pre-rolls and see which list actually has what you want
- Call Cambridge at 857-588-1301 to confirm an item is on the shelf
- Call Somerville at 617-591-5060 for the same answer on that store’s stock
Our honest take: choose the drive or ride you would rather make, then let the menu break the tie. Shoppers who are flexible on brand should go with whichever route is shorter today. Shoppers hunting one specific strain should start with the menu and let it pick the store, which is the point of being able to check live inventory before you drive there.
Pick Your Roll and Reserve It Today
The trip is already settled. What is left is which roll you are reserving, and that answer sits on today’s Cambridge menu, not last week’s. New lots land and tubes sell out, so open the live list first, filter to pre-rolls, and reserve the one you want before you head out. Bring the government ID showing you are 21 or older, plus your military, medical, industry or 55-plus ID if a standing discount applies to you. Pull into the free lot at 200 Monsignor O’Brien Highway and the order is waiting at the counter. If something on the listing is unclear, call 857-588-1301 or ask the budtender when you pick up.
More About Cambridge Pre-Roll Pickup
What happens if the pre-roll I reserved sells out before I get to the store?
An online order is a reservation against a case that walk-in shoppers are buying from too, so a popular tube can go fast. If one brand is the whole reason for the trip, order close to when you plan to drive over.
Can I stack a veteran or 55 and over discount on top of a current special?
Ask a budtender before your order is rung up, because whether a standing discount combines with a promo price is a store policy call made at the counter. Bring the ID that backs the discount you qualify for. Promo pricing rotates, so an answer from one visit will not always hold on the next one.
Does the price listed on the pre-roll menu include Massachusetts cannabis taxes?
No, tax is added at the register, so the final total runs higher than the menu figure. Adult-use cannabis in Massachusetts carries a state sales tax and a state excise tax, plus a local tax that the host city or town sets. Your receipt breaks out each line if you want to see how the total was built.
How should I carry a pre-roll order home in my car after pickup?
Keep it sealed and out of the passenger area, in the trunk or a locked glove box. Massachusetts treats an open cannabis container in the cabin of a vehicle much like open alcohol. Do not use before or while driving. Rules on transport get updated, so read the current state regulations if anything about your situation is unclear.
