There are only a couple good strains to choose from - when they are stocked. The non-flower products are usually very competitive in cost and quality to all other dispensaries. The atmosphere is not bad - quick, large, easy. Usually in and out when it comes to this place. 3 stars out of 5 because there is no exchange or returns so whatever you get, you keep... Good luck!

best dispensary in albuquerque!!!
This was the first dispensery I visited and love this place. For me the only issue is location. As a disabled person unable to drive, it's a long way from the bus stop. Then the walk either takes you along the road with no sidewalks or you have to walk along the aryyo path, again not very safe. Their flowers are top notch and they have great prices on edibles.
I thought this location was great. Friendly and helpful staff
My favorite shop in Albuquerque. Highest quality flower. Always going back for Blue Dream, theirs is the best you'll find. Doorman is super friendly, as is the rest of the staff. My most favorite place, I would be so sad if it changed.
Strange location but not a bad area. One way in and one way out but not hard to find
It's kind of in a weird place. It's right next to the freeway and only 1 way in and 1 way out. The people are nice but it's kind of strange feeling inside the dispensary.
Great products, great location, great staff, and great prices. I find that they have the best prices in town. There location is great. Also there staff is knowledagable.
I have been coming here for a while now. Great people very laid back atmosphere. Worth the trip from the west side. Love their thc budda tears. Was there a few days ago and they had a large selection of high thc bud. I bought the Holy Grail Kush (25.4% thc). Highly recommended.
IMO they are for sure Top 3 in NM.
Love the location, this place is so friendly and inviting!! The bud is out of this world and the staff is just simply amazing! I can't wait to become a regular of this fine establishment!!
Visited here after a few months of shopping around abq. I wish I had come here sooner. Top notch medicine.
They sell top notch, hydroponically grown cannabis. I have never been disappointed from these outstanding citizens in their work to provide the #1 cannabis here in New Mexico. I have never once been disappointed by their medicine. While ever other place I have registered to has greatly Disappointed me at least one time. This place stays true and they are here for you. Awesome new selection and I hope to see you all again soon!
HDR has a few strains with enough strength for chronic pain, like BlackBerry Kush. The Island Sweet Skunk (21.9% THC, .33 CBDs, Batch 11.29.13.ISS) is one of their stronger sativas. Unfortunately, these strains are hard to come by. Not only do you need to closely watch for them in the strain rotation, but you'll want to put your order in as soon as you see them arrive -- the latest batch of BlackBerry Kush sold out in about one day. As for the ISS, it's been months since it has been available, and I'm told it could be a couple more months before it returns. The other problem with HDR is that they can close down, without warning -- once for like 4 days. HDR is not a fancy dispensary, and it doesn't need to be. One of the best things about their bud is that almost all of their strains are very fragrant and fresh smelling -- in other words, strong terpenes. That doesn't always mean enough THC strength for chronic pain, but it sure smells nice. :) I think HDR's suggested donations are too high, but then I think the prices at all the dispensaries are too high. Their prices are somewhere in the middle range of the current market.
Not a fan of this one. Product is good but I didn't feel comfortable asking questions.
I've smoked my whole life, this place had low quality stress. They had all these different names and I bought a few grams of each strain. compared each one at home and they all looked brown and smelled the same, somewhat ammonia type odor from mildew?
Awesome place! The staff is really cool and help you out! Very good flowers just aren't cured completely. The wax is good to. Great stuff sells out fast.
Best place in town product and price. Too many of these places have the nerve to charge 15 bux a gram wtf. They have their shit together the holy grail is fire hot
Mos chill spot in town. Flowers are displayed for all to see, touch, smell, etc. Very knowledgeable staff, and super easy ordering options. Everything should be this seemless and easy when it comes to medication and service.
The location with the gate made me feel uncomfortable, though I like the man upfront, the actually budtenders seemed sure disinterested in helping me. Good selection, I have a hard time with their test results as they very so much, and have had much better with much lower ratings.
I don't understand how this place is highest rated! Extremely uncomfortable, answered my questions as if they were dumb. Did not feel welcome at all.
love the edibles. goldfish hybrid well wort the price. Great and knowledgeable staff. yes I recommend them.
High Desert Relief always has the best medicine and the eatables are some of my favorites, Jeff and Drew have always been helpful and knowledgeable with any questions I have.
Very friendly staff and great products
