This market is my very favorite supermarket in town. It's more modern than the rest, it's on the nicer side of town, so there are fewer problems, and it's large and spacious in the inside. I'm impressed by all of the departments in this store - bakery, deli, meat, dairy, floral, and produce. Their cashiers are always friendly and the store is always clean and well stocked. To boot, they have $5 sushi Fridays. Yummm. read more

Rude employees! A manager at Albertsons located at Juan Tabo and candelaria was the rudest employee I have ever seen. I was charged $20.00 over the price for a product and she would not refund me any money... I've been shopping there for 15 years! Not anymore! Her name was Candice she refused to take the $20.00 overcharge off my receipt. I'm certainly going to make a formal complaint to corporate about her! read more

This store sucks. Terrible produce and terrible selection. $10 for a crappy pound of chicken is insane. Shut this store down it's useless

Very friendly staff who let us in minutes before closing....On a road trip & needed some snacks for the road... the very friendly informative employee brought us to the bakery department and suggested a few goodies. Really clean restrooms and the store was so neat and well stocked. read more

Only posting because we stopped in to get flowers and the selection was poor and those flowers and plants present looked like they were near death. Couldn't pick anything up that looked halfway decent. Too bad!! read more

No shopping carts. Yup. When I asked an employee how I could get a cart, I was told the best way to try to get a cart was from another customer. I was told carts keep getting stolen and they were short. Then I tried to get a basket. No luck. If this was Walmart or Smiths I would not be surprised, but Albertsons is supposed to be a higher end store. So unless you are purchasing one or two items, good luck. I just went shopping somewhere else. read more

Don't ever buy their pre-prepared; unless you're going to eat it right away or don't really like fruit. I got food poisoning from there fried chicken, their melon,catolope bowl was moldy. read more

Here is another store that should have a different name as they do not sell the main brand items much anymore? They are selling their own brand that is lacking in quality!! Their deli is just crap!! The same people doing the same halfassed job. (The good employees you had in the deli quit! Tells ya something...)These women in the deli cant even cut sandwich slices? They just wad up the slices and shove em into a bag and say here ya go. Their bakery is terrible as the pre-made items are dry, lack taste and pricey!! Crazy prices these days they better get their act together!! read more

This particular Albertson's Market seems to have better produce than the one near my house (Academy/Tramway), but the parking lot here at the Juan Tabo/Candelaria one is goofier (smaller spaces, poor arrangement, perception of more danger from drivers - though the lot feels secure, even in this not-upscale area). The management must be knocking it out of the park, though: I always find lots of staff at this Juan Tabo outlet and they're available and helpful - and they're always hard at work, not goofing around. No problems finding a check-out lane. Lots of product stocked, always - whether produce, meat or flowers - prices seem perhaps lower than at the store near my house, but still not as low as the other major chain in the area. Like the parking lot in this smaller location, the aisles are more cramped here than those at the larger Albertson's Market store near my house, but I have never not been able to find anything that I needed to buy - very well and thoughtfully stocked. And well organized, too - I've never had an issue finding a cart (I notice they have security locks on their wheels these days) things are always where you would expect they should be. Bonus points for nice flower area with a lot of selection. Overall, it feels like a nicer middle-market grocery store in an urban area. If you can get past the slight parking lot anxiety, you should have a good experience here. read more

If you have the choice of an Albertsons in the city of Albuquerque this is one of my favorites. It's set up efficiently for convenience. The produce is always beautiful and fresh. The deli has a great selection of meats and cheeses with a fantastic staff that is eager to fulfill your order. Their produce is perfectly manicured and pleasing to the eye. It not only looks great but has fresh selection of beautiful fruits and vegetables. They always have plenty of staff on hand to check you out in a timely fashion read more

Plenty of parking space, swung by here on a weekend evening to grab some grapes on sale from their weekly ad. Fresh produce, lots of options, has self checkout which I haven't seen at many Albertsons Markets. Easy to find items, got what I needed quickly! read more

My previous rating of 3 stars has now dropped to 1 star. My previous review was about the disappointing curbside delivery service, but I said going inside was fine. Unfortunately, the customer service inside has been on a steady decline. There have been quite a few interactions that have been making me less inclined to shop here, but I now am sure I won't be back. On the weekend, we got a few items and the bagger was a bit rough. My wife always checks the seals and all the eggs when we put stuff in the cart, so we were a little disappointed that a couple of eggs were broken, but it wasn't worth complaining over a few cents worth of eggs. A couple days later, we got ready to use some salad dressing and the cap was busted and the seal was broken; took that back today because that was about $5 worth. I was there today about 1 pm. The woman at CUSTOMER SERVICE said we could exchange it, but turned to her co-worker and said, "they act like it's gonna kill them." Well, it was an item that says not to use if the seal is broken and to refrigerate after opening. It probably wouldn't kill me, but it might make my wife sick or me sick. I used to spend an average of $100-$150 a week at this store. Not anymore. That was the last time. It wasn't just this interaction, but, the fact that someone made me question if I was being too picky for not wanting to get sick has convinced me that I no longer want to give them my $100 a week. It is a shame since this one is only a block away from my house, but I will drive to the competition a few more blocks down the road to see if the service is better from this time forward. read more

So Albertsons will definitely start getting more of my business due to the fact that they are starting to donate the food that's about to go bad to charity's so I will now definitely be back. read more

Albertsons Market - Grocery Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

The service has gone downhill here. First, I have a shellfish allergy and had twice severe outbreaks after buying steaks here. Clear cross contamination in their prep department. Second, often only one or two checkout lanes are open which causes delays. And if they open an additional one they always ask the last person in a waiting lane to come over which is unfair to other waiting customers. Management needs to improve! read more

I came here recently, almost immediately after arriving in Albuquerque from Denver, after realizing that I had forgotten to pack face wash. (As my mom is fond of saying, if you forget something on a trip, you have to either buy it or do without it, and in the case of face wash I did not want to do without.) I was pleasantly surprised by their selection of bath and body products and was able to find a face wash that suited my needs at a decent price. I was also happy that I did not have to have a loyalty card to receive the sale price, as is becoming so common at most grocery stores. The store seemed clean and well-stocked, and the employees I interacted with were friendly. read more

Besides the Smiths on Tramway and Montgomery, this is the other great grocery store in this area. It's very clean with fresh vegetables and fruit. They always have many different outside plants available to buy. read more

I wanted to compliment our Albertsons store on Juan Tabo in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Throughout this Pandemic, Albertsons has always come through with online ordering. I don't know if it is because of their inventory system is linking to app, but every time I place pick up order from them, I get what I ordered. with the other markets, it shows that stuff is there, then you get some random thing as a substitute. I know you can say no substitution on other websites, but why can't they have the same service as Albertsons. Anyway, kudos to the store and to the staff who work there!! read more

This is the best Albertson's I have found in ABQ so far. A nice exterior, and probably the best inside of all. Have you heard of Wegmans? It's an awesome grocery store on the east coast, based in Rochester, NY. Well. If you know Wegmans, you know how awesome they are. This Albertson's is a pale imitation of Wegmans, but is the closest things I've found so far. They have a great selection, a nice environment, and a wonderful staff. This is my grocery of choice for most everything general, except speciality ethnics foods and meats. You won't be disappointed. read more

Albertsons Market - Grocery Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

First I have to say I am ashamed of my husband for even thinking of comparing this place to the shining example of food heaven that is Wegman's. Cripes. Okay, that unpleasantness behind us - this is the best Albertson's in town, as far as I can tell, and in a town of relatively crappy grocery stores, this one appears to the leader of the pack of scraggly mongrels. This store is Anthony Michael Hall's character in Sixteen Candles: The Geek: I know I came on kinda like a poozer on the bus tonight and everything. But... that's just so my friends won't think, you know, I'm a jerk. Samantha: But they're all pretty much jerks, though, aren't they? The Geek: Yeah, but, the thing is, I'm kinda like the leader, you know? Kinda like the king of the dipshits. Samantha: Well, that's pretty cool. Hey, but a lot can happen over a year. I mean, you could come back next Fall as a completely normal person. I don't really think Albertson's is suddenly going to become Wegman's next fall, but at least it's the king of the dipshits for now. Which is pretty cool. Anyway... They have a pretty good selection, including non-Albertson's brands - something Smith's could learn a lesson from. The recently started carrying Knudsen dairy products - YAY! They make their own guacamole, which is surprisingly tasty. Their fruits and veggies are usually pretty fresh, and the prices are okay. I often prefer getting fresh stuff at Sprouts or a farmers market, but I have no objection to getting them here. The food selection here is good, prices not bad, service is fine, store is clean, lit well and well-stocked. I like their little seasonal section in the front - it's smaller than many stores, which is kinda nice - doesn't detract from the real purpose of the store - groceries - but adds some fun stuff to browse through when you're interested. They also recently started carrying Tillmook ice cream - SCORE!!! If you don't know anything about Tillamook - it's pretty much the best dairy on earth! Their cheese is manna from heaven, especially the black label extra sharp reserve cheddar. When we lived on the east coast, my father-in-law would mail us three-pound bricks and we would hoard it like misers - the stuff is crazy good! But now, we can get not just the cheese, but the ice cream as well! Once the rest of their products get stocked, we will be rolling around in delight!!! So get on it, Albertson's!!! Albertson's has lots of silly little games, like Monopoly and other such nonsense. It's fun, but silly. I'd rather they spent their advertising dollars on actual food savings, but whatever - it must be doing something for them or they wouldn't keep doing it. So, overall, thumbs up, but only in comparison to what's available in this town. Up against real grocery stores, they would be a two-star at best. ABQers need to step up their demands and get a higher level of grocery store in town - revolt, people! Until then, this is the best of what we've got. (If it's not, tell me and I'll go check that out...) read more

This is one of my go-to grocery stores in the area (along with Sprouts on Montgomery). The employees are always extremely friendly and helpful, and it is a solid place to go for deals as well. On the deals level, there are always some pretty great deals around. One of the problems is that a lot of times there aren't a lot of deals on healthy food. It's a great place if you're looking for an unbeatable deal on frozen pizza or ice cream - less so if you're looking for a frozen vegetarian section (very sparse), or organic foods. On the staff level, I've found the cashiers to be some of the friendliest cashiers apart from Trader Joes. It's always easy to get into a pleasant conversation with them. Several of them have gone out of their way to make my experience better by taking care of things that I could have done myself (putting groceries in the bag I brought when they were backed up, etc...) Overall this is a great grocery store. Friendly employees and great deals make me keep coming back here. read more

The worst customer service. After being publicly shamed for hitting the wrong button at checkout, I left the store crying. Will never shop here again read more

I frequent this Albertsons five times a week. This is the nicest Albertsons I have been to. I love the fact they have sales on their roses mostly all the time. They also have a wing bar in the deli area. I especially like the little carts even though I overfill them all the time. The customer service is great every time I go. The only time I had an issue is with the pharmacy. I was waiting in line to fill my prescriptions and one of the female pharmacists was talking with another customer about which cruises to go on. The customer had already received her prescriptions and this conversation lasted more than five minutes even though there were people waiting. Hence, the four stars. Otherwise, I like shopping here since it is very convenient to where I live which is right being the store. read more

I came in to get some yogurt and apples for my morning. The produce section is kept well stocked, didn't find any rotten apples. Floors are clean, store is easy to navigate to find what you need if there isn't an employee nearby. Friendly cashiers, and great selection of flowers given it's a grocery store. read more

This store has some of the most rude and unfriendly workers ever, especially in the butcher and produce area. A couple of the cashiers are friendly but most are not. read more

Let me start this by saying I shop at this grocery store 4-6 nights a week. On my daily visit to this Albertsons, I was feeling under the weather but needed to get my shopping done. I came up with a cold sore the night before, and while there I wanted to pick up some Lycerin (Abreva). I checked out and took all my things home. After getting home, I broke open the box to find no medication tube in the box. I tried to call customer service right away that evening to tell them what had happened, but no one answered the line. My next option was to take it back but didn't really feel well and it was late, so I was going to do it as soon as I felt better. I arrived to Albertsons two days after I made my purchase and Linda helped me at the customer service desk. I explained the situation and she aggressively shook the box and said " you really didn't notice nothing was in there?!" I told her no, I didn't notice and she told me she would not exchange the product. I shop at this grocery store almost every day and I will not be returning to this store because of Linda and her poor excuse for customer service as a manager. read more

I just always loved Albertson's they have good meat in there vegetables are very fresh. It's just a clean and friendly place to shop for your groceries. read more

I love this Albertson's! BIG shout out to the sushi guy! He is absolutely the best, he's friendly, makes great sushi and also has made sushi for me when he is out of what I wanted!!!!! Salad bar is my only complaint here, it has little choices and lettuce always looks sad and wilted. Other than that everyone is always friendly and did I mention the sushi guy ha ha ha ha!! read more

I have been asking this store to retrieve their shopping carts that have been left in my neighborhood for years, they give me the same old answer, of sure right away!....nothing happens. Sick of it. This store is Not very responsive to the people that shop in there store. I'm thinking of shopping somewhere else. Lots of choices read more

This Albertsons has the friendliest and most helpful staff that I've ever experienced at a grocery store. I bought a patio set from them and they delivered it to my house for free! The checkout staff is always friendly and helpful as well, it's a night and day difference between Albertsons and the other major grocery store chains nearby. read more

The grocery store overall gets 4 stars- the 2 stars is for the deli- the ladies behind the counter are rude, and honestly could careless about being here. I politely asked about deli meat, and their chicken tenders and got total attitude about my questions. Standing watching while I waited, it wasn't just me- it was all customers. These aren't high school or college age either- these are Middle Aged women! I am sorry you hate your job, but don't snap at me read more

Shoutout to the cashier who busted the four teenagers stealing alcohol right now. Not much he can do to punish them but for him to be attentive and aware is a great employee. read more

This store location seems to be nicer than any other here in Albuquerque and they have a great chicken wing bar that is well stocked and lower prices than wing joints around town..The wing bar is located by the deli off to the right when you walk in.They have dipping sauces also. Its easy for me when I don't feel like cooking after a long day at work. A one stop shop for beer and chicken wings.. read more

Always clean inside. Nice staff. The only thing keeping it from 5 stars is that it always seems to be cold inside.

I usually expect a decent shopping experience at Albertsons, however at this location it is never that case. Rude employees,if you go in at night constantly understaffed, long lines with cashiers that don't seem to care about anything other than double charging you for items. Just got to Smiths or any other grocery store and save yourself the hassle. read more

I don't care to go to Albertsons since they sold out. Prices are too high. The Reward system is too confusing and to lose points at the end of the period is not good. In all, Smiths is much better and I love their reward system where all I have to do is go into the computer and click what I want and boom, it is on the card. No worries, good prices. I use to love going into Albertsons because of the atmosphere. It is different now and I will shop at Smiths, thank you! read more

8:55 on a Thursday and closed already... wow!! I'm very tired of the lazy half hearted lack of workmanship I get from them. They are the closest store to my house but after continuously running into them closing before I've even eaten dinner, I'm tired of them. The last time I was there I asked the cashier why or if they still had the 35-40 lbs dog food bags. He asked me if he would like for me to have him call the grocery gods to complain. No!! I'm done. Done with Albertsons all together. Teach your employees some respect and honor and hours that you say you are open. Done! Smiths isn't that far!! Walgreens is closer!! Done with Albertsons!! read more

Can they employ people that smile and say hello? Their groceries are OK and prices OK when they have a sale. I wanted a bottle of Apple Crown buy couldn't find an associate to unlock the cabinet it was housed in. Tired of their crappie service. I'm going to Wal-Mart. read more
