Just outside of Old Town, Albuquerque lies a local staple in the community. Duran Central Pharmacy has been around since 1942, serving up quality New Mexican food, while also providing pharmaceutical resources to the neighborhood. When you enter the building, you’ll encounter the pharmacy just to your right along with a store filled with great gifts, trinkets and anything else that represents New Mexico and Route 66. The entrance to the restaurant is tucked away in a back corner of the store with around a dozen tables and barstools. The Stuffed Sopaipillas are an amazing lunch special and any burrito will satisfy the big eater of the group. Duran’s quirky general store and flavor-blasted authentic New Mexican food provides a friendly, home-style experience for all ages.
