1861 Market

The entire staff is friendly and knowledgeable. The store is clean and smells amazing every time I visit. They have a large selection of products like high CBD low thc prerolls for the beginner, high thc concentrates for the connoisseur and everything in-between for everyone else. There is plenty of parking out front along Central and also in the private parking lot behind the store.

I went in looking for thc rosin and the shit they had was trash, I'm 99% sure it wasn't rosin based on the color and texture of it. So I decided to cop some resin due to it looking better. I got to my place and sparked up the resin and that shit was CBD even when I asked for thc and the box says THC. I've been smoking for many years so there's no way I could confuse them.

Also towed by this property manager after being parked less than 15min. The sign says Shogun and Market. The tow driver refused to tell us where our car was being taken and nearly hit us with his truck - intentionally. We filed a police report. The tow service told us this manager is calling DAILY. Hundreds of cars at $250 CASH ONLY seems like they're running a scam. Surrounding businesses have complained about her. I wonder if the owner of the building, who is a staple in the community for decades, is aware of this?!? She and towing company refuse to even speak to customers. Melissa Madrid is a sad excuse for a "property manager." I will make sure everyone I know doesn't go near this business as well as reporting to the PRC!!

I'm reviewing this place because I go here all the time and they are 10/10 for service, cleanliness, and value. I can't stand when a great place gets 1 shitty review from a dumb ass customer and suddenly the establishment is 1 star on yelp. So I'm posting this to boost the stars cause this place is great.

This is where I have buying my marijuana since it was legalized for recreational use and it's awesome! 1861 is what I would consider an upscale pot shop, reminds me of a boutique wine store. The staff are amazing -- they are super friendly and very helpful if you have any questions. The product is top-notch -- I have tried two other dispensaries in Nob/Silver Hill area and the weed I got at those places was more expensive and dry. The flower marijuana from 1861 is never dry and always excellent. This is a pot shop dream come true! I cannot recommend it more highly for all you 420 friends here in Albuquerque, NM.

I stopped in purely by coincidence (I was taking a detour around traffic) and was very happy by what I found. The dispensary is a large & open layout, very clean, and well laid out in my opinion. They have several walls with screens listing all their products; each wall is it's own type of high. There are few to no products on display, which didn't bother me.Having not seen such a layout before, I really liked it. When I was first starting out with cannabis, I never knew what I wanted. It took lots of discussions with the employees and then further trial and error to find the strains that worked best for me. The display method at 1861 would have helped me a lot back then. Additionally, I was there to find a CBD option for my mom's back pain. I wish she'd been with me; as an older woman who isn't confident about using cannabis, she would have found this dispensary pleasant, with a modern and approachble feel.As a bonus for me, they had a whole category just for Creative. I'd not seen that before and it was everything I've ever wanted, lol. Now I may just have gotten lucky, but the strain I picked from creatives ended up being one of my favorite highs I've had. And, turns out, it's not that easy to find. My local/preferred cannabis shop doesn't have it, so I give credit to 1861 for great product selection, there.I was greeted as I came in. The one person on the floor was busy with another customer, but within a minute someone else had come out of the back to help me. She was a wonderful lady who helped me find a product for back pain, as well as helped me find the Creative high (Peaches 'n Cream disposable vape, 10/10), talking me into it when I wasn't sure what I should try. I'm glad she did. The woman who checked me out was also very nice. The checkout was slow, but I was a new customer so she was making a profile for me. We were chit-chatting anyway, so I didn't mind. A third employee ended up chatting with us (there were no other customers at that time) and I enjoyed our conversation. I was in no hurry, so it was great for me. Five stars for service, recommendations, knowledge, and friendliness. I parked on the street at a meter and didn't have any parking problems. I can't speak to the other reviews about that. The only reason I dropped a star is that I also purchased Apple Berry Creative gummies and while the high was fine (7/10) the gummies themselves were awful. Whatever sugar coating they used, the gummies were packaged too tightly so it all disolved. The packaging was covered in a syrupy mess and the gummies were all stuck together. They should change the sugar they use if they keep making those. (I only sampled the one, so I do not know if it's a problem with all gummies). They also did not taste very good, though I care less about that. Overall, I would definitley recommend this dispensary. It is especially good for those newer to the industry or for an older generation uncertain about cannabis and dispensaries.

What a disappointment! I went in looking for a clean, safe place to shop and I was shocked at what I saw. i feared for my safety the entire time I was in there. DEFINITELY will NEVER go back to 1861 and neither should you

Great atmosphere, friendly staff members, great prices. Unfortunately the marijuana I was sold was really really dry, turned into powder when I broke it up. Hopefully it's not like that all the time !

I was there yesterday and I purchased only $100 but I ended up paying 115 even though I told him I wanted $100 worth and I am a medical patient because of herb that they gave me was so small and dry it's not worth even going there anymore that's the last time I go there you might as well sell it at as ground up pot because that's what it was basically I myself will never go there again notice that's a penny because the size of the buds

TOWED WHILE RUNNING ACROSS THE STREET FOR 5 MINUTES BEFORE GOING TO 1861 MARKET. MANAGER AVOIDS DISCUSSING ISSUE OR OFFERING CUSTOMER SERVICE. My husband and I had come here a handful of times. On my way home tonight, I parked to go get takeout from M'tucci's then was going to get him a pre-roll. I was in M'tucci's for 5 minutes waiting for our takeout, then was walking across the street to go to the Market when I saw I was being towed. I was in the restaurant for 5 minutes and was already getting towed?! The tow driver was very rude and unprofessional. I asked to pay and just get my car on site, but he wouldn't let me and the towing company wouldn't either when I called. I was upset and he was mean and unhelpful. My husband came to pick me up and tried to speak to the manager at 1861 Market. She would not address him and hid in the back. There were 6 or 7 open parking spaces in the lot, but apparently for 1861 Market, making a buck off their customers is more important. The tow driver said he lived in the heights, but he must have been called / just on standby for the night. It's pretty gross they are not actually worried about having parking for their stores, just about making money off client base. This manager was just watching for anyone parking for a minute and trying to get people. She didn't realize she is loosing a repeat customer and any other people I know. We all know us smokers are loyal. If she would have talked to my husband or tried to make it right, maybe we would have reconsidered this review. Instead, they hid and refused to address us or have a conversation. We will be telling our friends and family to avoid 1861 Market and won't be back.
