Hold Up Roll Up named Capital Region Living’s #1 Best Dispensary of 2026!
We’re incredibly grateful to share that Hold Up Roll Up has been voted the #1 Best Dispensary in Capital Region Living’s 2026 Bestie Awards!
Being in the heart of Albany, we’ve always set out to be more than just a dispensary. Hold Up Roll Up was built to be a welcoming, community-driven space where people feel comfortable, respected, and confident in what they’re choosing. As a Black-owned and operated business, that responsibility means a lot to us, and we carry it with pride every day!
This win belongs to our team first and foremost! The people behind the counter, on the floor, and behind the scenes show up every day with intention, knowledge, and a genuine love for what they do. The way you show up for our customers is what makes this place special.
And to our patrons & community of Albany — thank you for supporting us, and continuing to show love!! Every visit, recommendation, and kind word has helped us grow into what we are.
