Albuquerque dispensaries: 324 licence listings, top-rated first

Where the 324 cluster

Menaul Boulevard NE leads Verdex's address count with 18 listings, followed by 4th Street NW with 13 (home of Happy Hippie Budz in the North Valley), Central Avenue SE with 12, San Mateo Boulevard NE and Lomas Boulevard NE with 10 each, and Coors Boulevard NW with 7. The two Score 420 stores are on Central Avenue near Nob Hill and Old Town.

• Lounges: at least five entries carry consumption wording in their licence names, including Unbeweedable Cannabis Cafe and Lazydaze on Eubank Boulevard; New Mexico allows use only at home or in a licensed consumption area.
• Not every entry has a counter: 18 of the entries are named as manufacturers.
• Payment: profiles note cash or debit at some shops, since card networks avoid cannabis.
• Tax: New Mexico's cannabis excise tax is 14% from July 1, 2026 and will rise one point a year to 18% in 2030, per the state Taxation and Revenue Department, plus local gross receipts tax.

The state recorded $39.6 million in adult-use sales for July 2026 alone, a monthly record, the Marijuana Herald reported. With that much volume, use the score, hours and licence type on each profile to narrow the list before comparing menus.
