A 50s/60s themed diner. I always visit this place whenever I travel to Albuquerque for concerts. It's not too far from the stadium either.

Well, they have Trader Joe’s and REI.
If you’re into thrifting, check out Buffalo Exchange near campus.
Good restaurants/bars on Central Ave. near campus.
Casino.

The Casinos suck. It's like walking into a house fire without being able to have a drink before you die.
Albuquerque is literally a zombie land in most places now.
It's also the place where Bugs Bunny made the wrong turn.When you say Albucracky, this is what most remember......
And there's nothing wrong with either.
The science museum there is pretty cool actually. The Sandia tramway is pretty nice too (as long as you don't mind being a 1000ft up!)
Hotel Parq Central is nice and has a rooftop bar.
Love REI

I’ve been to Albuquerque maybe 10 times. I’ve never felt unsafe there. If you go looking for trouble, you will probably find it. Same could be said here in El Paso or any other big city
One of my favorite writers went to UNM — Edward Abbey. His “Desert Solitaire” is a masterpiece, and funny.
yes i have. Its boring . Dont the kids from Abq come to El Paso to party??
a Alex English autograph ball going for $300 online. His card not so much so i guess get a basketball signed.
Abbey's Road, Fools Progress, Monkey Wrench Gang, Fire on the Mountain, Hayduke Lives, The Brave Cowboy......and others, read them all! Great writer and has vision to what the west would become is straight on.
Great recommendation Uni! Just got into Larry McMurty after his death and feel like Abbey is just the natural progression in this southwest genre.
I wish, to damn dumb to stay in school. I thought booze and women were more important. Unfortunately we can’t go back in time.
I stayed in some UNM dorms for two weeks. I cannot, in good conscience, recommend anything nearby campus. Away from campus, the cable car up the mountain looked okay, but the wait is usually over an hour.
Jesus, dude — let it go. There’s a game today.
You live in El Paso and probably huffed paint since you were 13. The same thing you’re saying is what most people say about El Paso.
I asked for ideas of things to do and basically everyone said there is nothing to do. To just go to Sante Fe.
There is more to do in El Paso than there is to do in Albuquerque.
There are a lot of good breweries to check out around ABQ, in fact there are 40+ in and around town. The few I'd recommend are: La Cumbre Brewing, Tractor Brewing, Bosque Brewing, and Boxing Bear Brewing. In the evening there is an attraction called the River of Lights, which is a Christmas Light show. Old Town Albuquerque has some nice shops. Beyond that you could have the authentic Albuquerque experience of getting your car stolen!
Albuquerque has an amazing Tramway and at the top there is a restaurant which on a clear day you can see up to 95% of New Mexico
