The best service ever!!! The young cute lady that sold me a deck was absolutely lovely and even put tape on my deck for free. I will never order online again or go to any other shop in town. Relaxed atmosphere and her dog was so well behaved. Didn’t hear a peep from Coda (sp?) once the whole time we were there. The hearts made out of discarded decks on the fence are the raddest art evuh!

Literally the best skate shop Ive been to in any city. Good people, who are very knowledgeable and friendly, and who place giving good information and products above making a sale. Truly extraordinary.

Absolutely will not go anywhere else for my skate needs. Went in just to browse and ended up getting helped by Caesar, and he had great energy and offered exceptional and meaningful feedback and suggestions. Offered his undivided attention and showed me so great custom boards the shop is now designing and offering. He assembled the board I bought very quickly and it was overall an amazing experience. This is a must stop place and I encourage anyone with skate needs to shop here and BUY LOCAL.

Staff was awesome and very knowledgeable. They gave me good tips about good snowboarding spots and did a great job with my snowboard wax & tune. I will be back anytime I need a wax or gear.

I do not shred. I have never visited this place. Chalk up another one for GPS mislocations.At least the owners care about what you say on Google reviews. I have never been here, as said previously, but it looks like the owners care enough about what one writes. If you do shred, perhaps this is the place for you. Happy shredding in the New Year!

Awesome place. Super chill shop with awesome music. These 2 guys are the nicest dudes youll meet in your life. They helped me scour the shop and sidewalk when I lost my card near there, and we found it. Also gave my board a decent clean for free. Gonna give them more business.

. I loved silver... Was not happy to hear they were robbed blind in the night hours next to a 24hour donut shop... Cops love donuts... Doesnt make sense...

I ordered a wallet that I had been searching for and found 2-3 pages in, on Google. The order process was delightfully pleasant. I received a text message when the order was placed, sent, and delivered. When I opened the package there was a note of Thanks from the person who packaged my order and stickers. Shipping was fast and their customer service amazing! Thank you Emilia (packager) and Haven Skate Shop for your outstanding service. I LOVE my new wallet and look forward to doing business with you again!

Zeph is the man to tune and wax your board. Dont trust your high-end stuff to some lackey. No one does better work in ABQ. Pay a little extra for immediate service and be on your way to the slopes in an hour. Best option for me, coming from the LC area, with no quality service around.

I moved to ABQ about a month ago and just recently got back into skating; I was told this was one of the best skate shops in the area, and I was not disappointed when I finally had a chance to stop by. Haven has a great selection of decks, bearings, trucks, and wheels, and the pricing is quite fair. The owner is sweet and helpful, and shes beginning to display artwork from local artists in the shop, which is awesome! Cool shop, cool people; Ill definitely be coming back.

We went on Christmas Eve and bought a longboard for my son. The guy who helped us was the best. He helped my son pick out the best truck and wheels. We bought the only Dervish long board and my son could not be happier. We will definitely be going back! The place is awesome! Why go anywhere else for skateboards or longboards!

I went to this place because I guess skateboard city was out of business. Anyway, Haven had a good selection of quality products at reasonable prices. They even had a skateboard mechanic on duty! Five and a half stars!

I think its the best skate and longboarding shop in Albuquerque. Wide selection of decks, bearings, wheels, trucks and gear. The only skate shop that has several house decks of different shapes and sizes. Tons of clothes too.

This shop was super informative and patient with me. They have an awesome sticker collection and helped me build a killer deck to shred the ditches. The shop is hidden in a residential neighborhood, but just look for the fence with heart skateboards.

Review №54

Bought my son a longboard and helmet there today for his birthday. Nothing better than walking in a store with knowledgeable staff that assist and not try to push a sale. (big difference from box stores). I will be back to buy my youngest son his first set up as well...

Ok service, fine environment, but the prices are ridiculous, $60 for a pair of wheels, gimme a break. Dont waist your money or time, find another skate shop, or just buy online.
