Parkway Dispensary Wins Best Cannabis Dispensary in Central Illinois for Third Year

Parkway Dispensary, a locally owned and operated cannabis dispensary in Tilton, Illinois, has been named the Best Cannabis Dispensary in Central Illinois for the third consecutive year at the 2026 People's Choice Awards, presented by The News-Gazette. The award, decided entirely by public vote, marks the third time the dispensary has taken home the honor since 2024.

Since opening its doors in September 2023, Parkway has built a reputation for offering competitive prices and a wide selection of quality, craft-grown cannabis. The dispensary works directly with independent Illinois cultivators, processors, and brands to stock a variety of products, including lab-tested flower, concentrates, edibles, and more. This unique approach has set Parkway apart from its competitors and has contributed to its consistent success.

Ambrose Jackson, CEO of Parkway Dispensary, attributes the award to the dedication of the staff.

Parkway's commitment to customer satisfaction is evident in its offerings. New customers are welcomed with a 50% discount on their first three visits, providing a low-risk way to explore the menu and find what works for them. The dispensary is located in Tilton, Illinois, and is open seven days a week. Customers can browse the menu and order ahead at shop.parkwaydispensary.com/tilton.

Looking ahead, Parkway Dispensary is preparing to roll out new services designed to make shopping easier and more convenient. The team is planning to introduce curbside pickup and the ability to serve Illinois medical cannabis cardholders. Additional details on both programs will be announced in the coming weeks.

Jackson emphasized the importance of building lifelong relationships with customers and the community. With a focus on local ownership, craft-grown products, and knowledgeable, welcoming service, Parkway Dispensary continues to be a leader in the cannabis industry in Central Illinois.
