Pot shop, cafe to open Friday in Wheeling
Editor's note: The name of the bakery has been corrected.
Wheeling's second cannabis dispensary is set to open Friday.
Called OKAY Cannabis, the store will operate at 781 N. Milwaukee Ave. in a building last occupied by a Twin Peaks restaurant that closed in 2019.
It'll share the building with the also-new West Town Bakery Cafe & Lounge.
West Town and OKAY Cannabis are owned by the same company, the Fifty/50 Restaurant Group, but will be run separately.
Both OKAY Cannabis and West Town will be open daily from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m.
Customers must be at least 21 to enter OKAY Cannabis, which will have a separate entrance within the building. West Town is open to anyone.
Wheeling's other dispensary, Hatch, opened in 2021 at 1500 E. Lake-Cook Road.
