REVIEWS OF Imbibe Nob Hill IN New Mexico

Steven Anders

Not a relaxed cigar bar at all... LOUD club music, the place was packed, cigar selection was dismal at best (unless you enjoy machine mades or infused cigars), and the monte cristo espada i did buy was dry and cracking. There were so many people smoking cigarettes, probably because its about the only bar at which you can drink and smoke. I will never go in there again- would not recommend to anyone looking for a relaxed cigar bar.

Eric Buck

Kathy the daytime bartender is very flavorless. Her stuck up demeanor just ruins the vibe at imbibe.

Michael Romero

Charlotte V Johnson

This place has a great roof top lounge with an incredible Albuquerque atmosphere, up scale compared to most places downtown and always busy!

Frankie Woods

Love the ambiance and local crowd.

Lindsey Redmon

This bar was awesome! Has a rooftop access which has couches, a bar and gas fire places with a great view of the nob hill area. Drinks are good and service is decent. Will definitely go back!

Shayna D'Egidio

Perfect place for my sisters batchelorette party

I won't be returning to this P.O.S. and I recommend to never even consider going. I ordered a gin and tonic. It tasted like hotdog water with carbonation. I couldnt taste the alcohol.. which really upsets me since I only drink maybe 5 times a year on special occasions... I only had one drink and decided to leave my card open in case I was goin to be buying a round for my friends that were visiting... I got caught up in conversation and forgot my card and went back to get it the next day... my account was charged but they couldn't find my debit card.. I only went to the one and only bar, ordered only one drink and they charged my account.... no I have to cancel my card, order a new one, drive in circle's because they're poorly ran business.... rant over...

William Graeme

Comfortable atmosphere. Good selection of beers.

Linnea Soulier

DJ FLO FADER always kills it! But the staff is DEFINITELY not professional. Not impressed. At all.

Jennifer Vergeer

Music was so, so.

BARRY HUTCHISON

Got to love Imbibe

Nathania Anaya

Horrible experiences, almost always. Nothing but second hand smoke with no ventilation and limited space. Dance floor is small and you get pushed around. Service was good but there was no system and therefore longer drink times.

Jimmie leonard

great vibe, good drinks. cigar bar

Michael Osborne

No ball caps allowed...unless you bribe the bouncer 5 bucks.

Krys M

A little too much smoke but awesome drinks! Nice area to talk drink an dance.

E H

Love their music selection. Especially on nights they place some good ole jams. Love the rooftop deck but it gets really crowded sometimes. Bartenders are good too. Very efficient.

Joe V

Horrible owners and staff. The bouncers are too aggressive and attack people on multiple occasions without provocation with no repercussions. Search up imbibe bouncers charged and you'll see for yourself on the local news.

Jahmar Taylor

Jeremy Standiford

Classy place, good for a smoke and a drink.

Hayden Zagadinow

brandon banas

this place is great and nice specials

Scott Lewis

Like the Room of Requirement, always there when you need it

Aaron Jones

Stole my property, overweight bouncer at the door and dead inside. Will not return for their cheap drinks or cheaper patrons. If Walmart were a club this would be it.

latanya porchas

Pretty much the only place I go to. I hate it gets crowded sometimes. But great view good staff. More of a chill atmosphere. I see people complaining about the "dress to impress" but why even go out if that's not the goal? Go to a bar n grill and listen to the juke box then. I enjoy it.

Kay E

The turn up on a Tuesday

avinash kapoor

Great service. Gem of a place. Awesome cocktails

Jesse Adams

Cool place to have a cigar... Drinks are light on alcohol compared to other places. I don't think I'd spend an evening here, but stop after a night out for a cigar.

Iliana Garcia

They suck. Straight up.

Rachel Smith

Kristin Leigh Acevedo

David Mueller

Great place when you want to risk getting stabbed, or beaten by the bouncers!

Toby Petree

Steve M

Stumbled apon this place after dinner, they have a great selection of gars and liquor. Yes, you can smoke inside!!! Pours we're generous. I will be back!

For Nob Hill, incongruous. Nob Hill is hip, jazzy, happy fun, and festize. This place has poor service, antiquated atmosphere, high prices and overall lacking in class. This place needs to take a cue from the rest of Nob hill, and move it up in class.

Brett Zelk

Went in to see the place and was harassed by a bouncer. He ruined my ID and said it was fake. Bent my ID to the point where the holographic film separated from the plastic and told me real ID's don't do that and said I was underage. Will be speaking with a manager about paying for my now ruined license.

Incredibly poor service - disgusting interior, bouncers are downright predatory, drinks are watered down and the bathrooms are dangerous. I will never set foot in this disgusting establishment again - the cliental seemed more suited for the South Valley vs Nob Hill.

deryck otero

The place seems to have the least professional bouncer working the door. In the most typical way they search the men hard compared to the women and be careful if you say anything because they’ll be quick to say something and get you throw you out. Don’t waste you time in the line

Jonathan Eckley

You can't wear a hat inside, which is fine but even if you take it off and put it in your pocket you are not allowed in unless you pay a $5 dollar cover fee for your hat.

Tsianina Williams

It's always crowded and there's always at least one creepy guy that follows you around the whole time you are there.

D. M Romero

Great bartender!!!

Jasmine Prieto

Always had good times here until this past Saturday. One bouncer needs to be let go. Never saw him before that night. He kept slapping my friend on the shoulder to make us move and stared us down until we did. Later on the dance floor he grabbed me and when I swated his hand away he proceeded to ask for my id to make us leave, telling us to have a nice night and never come back. I really like the bartenders here but after that I'll probably never go back. Canvas and monte vista had way better service.

scorpio 84

It just to be a nice classy place with a dressing code, now it's all ghetto! Not to mention that security guard that will let people in for some cash to avoid the line, it wouldn't surprised me if they close these place. That was these past Saturday 3/31/18

Breadley Oak

Horrible Service - The bouncer in the front is so disrespectful, borderline predatory and mouthy. He will literally deny entry for no reason.

Angela Abeyta

Burrito was amazing!

Donavon Barney

TUESDAY NIGHTS, is the only time I would even think about going to this place. This place has so much more potential. They seriously need to get an interior decorator in here to make it a classier place. The whole club seems disconnected, small spaces, no elbow room, and over price drinks. I wish they would utilize the top deck more. Reconfigure it, and re-style it up there. Tuesday nights is College Night, so that's why I suggest this place only for that night. Be aware of the stupid bouncers that hold u back from getting in the club, even though there is plenty of space inside, it's ridiculous to even have a line there. The bouncers only hold you back to make the club seem like it's busy from the outside, which is a stupid idea, considering this is Albuquerque.

Brian Montano

its ok if you dont mind the cigar smoke all the time

John Telles

Paulie Z

Good selection of cigars, although WAY over priced...... but you can just bring our own! However, cool people and good music playing. 2 dollar beers for happy hour. Also great view from rooftop deck. Deck furniture needs updating to make it a great place. Please just spend 500.00 at Home Depot on outdoor furniture and you will have a really great place to relax, take clients and have a smoke and a beer ;-)

Ratul Alahy

This place is crazy. Fun place to meet new people.

Arturo Fountain

Fun place to dancs but needs more ventilation and cooling.

Christopher Fassio

Friendly enough... drinks a bit pricey, but fun to dance at.

benny thompson

Ben the bartender is fantastic. Really knows his drinks and has great recommendations too. The atmosphere is really laid back, super popular place to grab a drink, especially during the day as they have a really great happy hour where the drinks are half off

Balsak T. Bagar

Much better options in the area. Very douchy employees.

Sharel Cooper

I've gone here for the past 3 years and this was the worst. Me and a friend always get to imbibe early so we can get a booth. Always. The security guard came over. He's the skinny Caucasian with the mustache that at the end of it curls up. He said that someone rented the booth and we had to move. Cool we did. It was only when i started to ask questions to the bartenders and servers did i realize you can't rent the booth. Only the VIP. I was asking so the next time i could. Being proactive.So the bouncer comes up and mind you im nowhere near intoxicated and ask my friend and i to leave. I ask why. We were in code with the dress policy. We weren't fighting. Simply because he got caught in his own lie. Then i called him incompetent and he tried to say what's next "racism" the head of security and the curl mustache guy. Unacceptable. They were disgusting and they both shouldn't work there.

stephanie lucero

Like the idea behind this bar .but I guess I expected more .... its messy. Not to professinal..and should I mention my glass of wine was full of gnats! So gross ... I think if this bar got cleaned up it would be great.

Colin Pearman

Fun cigar bar ....daytime is as good as the nightlife

Jacob Templeton

Raymond Nevarez

Good cigars

Kyle Crawford

Great place to hang out. Lots of variety. You can hit one side for more of club with dancing, or the other side to lounge around on the couches. Don't forget to check out the upstairs patio; it has a great view and the there are even fire pits. They do allow smoking indoors, it is a cigar bar after all. One of the most fun places in ABQ for sure, so it does get really busy and really crowded.

Frank Tank

I have been going there for years now off an on. The curly hair door guy is too much. The bouncer is unprofessional and treats customers with disrespect. My pants are normal slim levis, waist high, nice shirt and he still mumbles about about the pants as i walk in. I believe he is racist and labels certain people regardless of they dress.

David Marsico

Got felt up by an alcohol rep. She was nice though.

Shanell Illescas

Jeremy Farnsworth

Good selection of cigars and liquor. Staff is mostly friendly, but the late night crowd is often loud, drunk and rowdy.

Benjamin Tobias

Horrible place bouncers think they are the law. Classic example of a place trying to hard. Way way to hard. Could be good but the vibe and people is/are fake.

Matthew Oretga

Great music mix, drinks are a tad over priced but the quality is great. Smoking inside the club is a huge plus, one bar two sides and a roof top and a cigar bar? Imbibe is a little too small but my experience both times merits a five star review keep it up and if you could move to a bigger location with a bigger dance floor keep the open top on the second floor and you'll be golden

The curly haired caucasian bouncer is extremely rude. I know the bouncers deal with obnoxious drunk people but the way he talks down to people is unprofessional. All you have to do is respect people and you will get it in return. He is chasing away potential customers. I came to imbibe with a positive attitude and was belittled by a 20 something year old on a power trip. Please train your staff to handle all matters professionally and fair. I will be taking my business else where. Thanks,

Cammy Finley

Not for someone over 25, unless you sit upstairs on the roof top patio away from the predatory atmosphere downstairs. Also, they get a star for being one of the last places in town where one can have a cigarette. You can order food from The Last Call next door, who will deliver it. Cocktails, smoking, nice couches, and the sunset, with friends is what Imbibe is good for.

Jeff Lovern

Great club and cigar bar!

Brett Chacon

Extremely rude employees, over priced drinks, and is ANYTHING BUT a welcoming atmosphere. This place left me with a negative impression on the Albuquerque nightlife during my weekend trip there.

Arby A

I came in after work for a drink and a cigar. I was happy to find a box of Liga Privadas on the top shelf. The price was find for the Liga so I opted to buy it, however once I felt it I immediately noticed it was dry. I looked on the back shelf and saw a box full of 69% relative humidity Boveda packs and each and every once was dry as a crisp. With how dry their cigars are, I honestly don't think they humidify much above outside humidity. For any would be cigar smokers, the cigars in that "humidor" are ruined. It takes many months to reinvigorate a dried cigar and its not always successful. Even if they were to start humidifying again, the cigars would be prone to cracking and have a bad taste. I'd avoid them and go to Monte's or Havana house.

Fun place to go to. Good music and the drink prices are very reasonable.

Zero Griffith

Amazing staff combined with the one of a kind atmosphere makes for one unforgettable experience.

David MacKenzie

Just...don't. Unless you can somehow enjoy the view while ignoring the crowd. And the humidor? Really, don't.

Eric Perea

edward castro

Well...Id give imbibe a 1/2 star if possible, so I can justify 50% of the one star I DID give em. The place is cramped, loud, and obnoxious. The owners really have a hard time defining what kind of environment Imbibe is. They sadly attempt to combine cigar lounge, dance club, and posh/trendy bar. This could be seen as an exploitation of the lack of nightlife in Albuquerque. The employment of questionable bouncers is also a red flag. It's slim pickings in Albuquerque and Imbibe should be left out of consideration.

Dangerous Jay

Malcolm McClendon

You can smoke in here

Kathryn Wright

Okay vibes.

Mike T

Reg Mann

over ran by kids in t shirts wearing hats backwards who push you around. When it's pitched as a cigar bar, you don't really expect to be the best dressed guy in the place when you are simply wearing a suit. "premier cigar lounge?" More like loser college student hang out. Was not impressed at all and will not return for double priced beers, over crowded environment and kids in T shirts. And seriously? One bathroom for 300 people??

Keith Jones

JohnnyBoards

imbibe is the Night Life of Nob Hill!

Marcus Trujillo

Great for late night party crowds. Great cigar selections, and an all around great environment complete with dance floor.

Dara

Every time I have gone, the security has not only taken my purse in hand, he rummaged through it and pulled at it. That is ILLEGAL! Not to mention he pulled a $300 bag out of shape. They are supposed to ask you to move anything obstructing view, not do it themselves. Manhandling a customers purse, rifling through it, is illegal. No matter your reasons. Very illegal. On top of this rough and illegal behavior by their door security, the rest of their security seems to be quite lacking. a man grabbed me by the waist and tried to pull me towards him despite the fact that I was pushing him away and moving away, and the bouncers did nothing. Also, the music is Way too loud. Sure clubs have loud music, but this is so loud, I had to stick toilot paper in my ears. The only reason I gave this club two Stars instead of one is because their bartenders know how to mix a good drink.

Danielle Leigh Billings

Awesome place! Good drinks specials on Tuesdays and Thursdays

Lincoln Stanfield

Imbibe is a very well-run bar and nightclub in Nob Hill. It is one of my go-to's for any occasion. I live a few blocks down the road and have always had a great time there. They have a dress code which is nice and allow cigar smoking inside. Great place to chill. Miguel and his team ensure a great patron experience. Kudos, Imbibe team!

Susan Townsend

Great place to chill out and grab a drink

Jeff Cowen

Whoo hoo, half price drinks, rooftop bar to ourselves. Blood orange screwdriver. May the 4th be with you !

Gabe Garcia

Ann Gora

Cozy cigar bar with full atmosphere! A beautiful space to have a classy date, meeting, or drink with friends! 1st Thursday's is comedy night and a great, free show to catch with $1 tacos. Way cool.

Lizbeth Ronquillo-cobos

Seriously what happenned to that place!??. Its ghetto as hell, i do not recommend it at all. I used to come and it was so classy now ots trashy.

Bestn8ivealive

Don't wear ecko clothing or you'll get rejected or other than that it's cool. Stupid rule lol

Zed Fifth

FUN TO DANCE AT Tuesday ( college night DJ Dance Party) Friday ( DJ Dance starts at like 11:00 ) Saturday ( DJ Dance party starts at 10:30 ) Only gave 4 star because of Cigar smoke & a few of the bouncers are ... well ... trouble makers

Angie Zaldivar

BLOCK B2B

Strict dress code but good Tuesday night dance sessions. Dj is okay

chris ignited

I have to say unfortunately i agree the bouncers here are very agressive and racist. I'm not one to say racism is some where it isnt but several months ago me (mixed) my black friend and native friend tried to get inside the bouncers immediately looked at us and said we all had baggy pants and were refused entry. Honestly my pants were not baggy nor my friends my black friend had such tight pants we even made fun of him jokingly earlier in the day. What bothered me the most i felt this unfair treatment so stood across the street and watched who they allowed in for 10 mins ZERO white refusals 1 guy even had baggy khaki type of cheap shorts n no problem. Please if you feel discriminated against or witness document its 2017 and has to change. I went there before this incident 1 time with a girl and that night was awesome i dnt know what happened the next time i blame the bouncers.

Schyler Davis

Bouncers try to not let certain people in to get cash for themselves. They will tell you you can't get in because of your shirt or your pants and then tell you for 10$ they will let you in. Bunch of cowards just trying to get extra money. Second time in row they didn't let me in because of my outfit, but then told me for 20$ I can get in. Not worth the money and not worth the sketchiness. I would choose Embibe to be the last place to go if your at nob hill area don't even bother going to Embibe

Flo Fader

Ele Rivenbark

Closed an hour before posted time, went in to buy a cigar and the guy working said he had already counted his drawer and wouldn't re open despite the door being unlocked and there being an hour until close. Unimpressed.

Nataliya Lovchikova

The drinks are good, I recommend the Liquid Marijuana. The dance floor could be bigger, and the DJ needs to learn that mostly hip-hop is not what people want. Otherwise I had a good time. Great place to meet people.

Bryon Blake West Dyk III Hamburger

It's truly good to stick up for all members of our society including the members who smoke tobacco in these facilities to ensure that your day totally stinks

David Carlos McAllister Romo

Great rooftop bar, excellent cigar selection

Kirsten Marie Eaton

Imbibe is a great hangout place before the 11:30 university crowd roll in, then it is obviously the place to be. Great bands, cigars and atmosphere. I

LOW END CLUB DON'T MAKE RESERVATIONS HERE. YOU TRY TO WALK BACK INTO THE BUILDING AND THEY WILL PULL OUT PEPPER SPRAY ON YOU. DO NOT MAKE RESERVATIONS AT THIS CLUB IT IS THE LOW END OF TRYING TO HAVE A NIGHT OUT IN ALBUQUERQUE. I WOULD SUGGEST YOU GO TO THE STAGE AT THE SANTA ANNA CASINO FOR A NIGHT OUT ON THE TOWN.

Mr Banyou

Good

John N

Stay away from this place. The bouncers are a bunch of wannabe thugs that try to pick fights with drunk patrons

Paul Camden

Stephen Parker

Nice place..The only one where cigar smoking is allowed. I know the curly haired bouncer. Dakota is a gentlemen. Not an easy job when the place is overcrowded.

Andres Bustillo

If there would be an option of giving negative 5 stars imbibe definitely wins that. Went home with a bad taste of this place, everything started up with the bouncer who get bribe by their favorite “customers” in order to skip the lines and then being disrespected and mistreated by the same bouncers just because you are not “generous” (So far there is no VIP differentiation in this bar so this is not an exception). I witnessed this 4 times during the 30 minutes I spent doing the line to get in. The majority of people that go in are ghetto though so you are not missing anything extraordinary. Even worse they are the ones that pay the bouncers to get in without doing the line! Come on albuquerque we are better than that. Without anything else to say I highly not recommend to visit this place if you want to have a good time. There are better options in the city.

Jhulian Newell-Little

Nice cozy atmosphere with a nice beer and cigar selection

Lou Mclla

Great place to spend the night with friends.

Justin Thompson

Okay place, good selection of drinks and cigars and waitstaff is friendly and attentive. Couple problems arose however, first is get there before this place turns into a club on the weekends. We were there before and as it turned into a club and even though we spent over $125 between our group we were asked to move out of our seats for "VIP" guests who had requested bottle service. There were no VIP guests seated, only regular patrons. This was irritating because we were paying customers, but I guess this is the attitude today. The second issue was the cigar I purchased. I bought a Romeo and Julieta out of their humidor and smoked 1/3 of it and the wrapper cracked and started to unravel. Needless to say the cigar was very dry and not humidified properly. This cigar was a $10 purchase so I was expecting better. Overall, I liked the atmosphere when we were first there, but once the DJ started things were much different.

Taylor Toledo

August 25 2018. Was my first time in this horrible establishment This is what the bouncer did to me, i woke up so sore the next day it feels as if i was beaten. Bruises under my arms, hands, on my back, and scrapes all over my leg The bouncers assulted me, i had to scream so loud for him to let me go,and i fell hard to the ground. I have never been so humiliated and scared in a public environment. This place needs to seriously change,this is my first and last experience: thinking about pressing charges. Ladies beware of this place! Men beware. Be safe! I have done some research they have mulitple incidences over the past few years one actually leading to an arrest. If things haven't changed since then, i believe it never will. My Bruises are now 3 days old and are more visible (black and blue). I have posted pictures several times, pretty sure owner keeps taking them down.

Diveidys Guerra

I truly believe that this is a racist bar against black and a sterio type staff something needs to be done to stop this types of business in nob Hill and in the world ps: I feel discriminated do not give business to this establishment
