Recreational Cannabis Dispensary in Arlington Heights, IL

This is a space created by career stoners, for stoners. And that shared passion shapes everything from the products on our shelves to the conversations you’ll have with our Cannabis Advisors. First-timer or longtime regular, you’ll leave knowing exactly what you came for.

Why Tru Essence Dispensary Stands Out

Our dedication to customer satisfaction begins with our carefully curated line of products. You’ll find premium flower, vapes, and a wide range of edibles preferred by our customers. 

We also carry a great selection of craft options you’re unlikely to find anywhere else. Our infused syrups, sauces, baking mixes, and oils are the perfect solution for shoppers interested in DIY edibles, and our premium glassware can be the ideal gift for any occasion. 

And our top-shelf products don’t mean we expect customers to pay top-shelf prices. Our daily prices are often less than those at nearby dispensaries, and our specials help you get more for your money at every visit. 

Cannabis Advisors Who Know Their Craft

Upon entry, you can expect an enthusiastic greeting and personalized assistance to meet your unique needs. Tru Essence is proud to be a multicultural and bilingual dispensary, with staff members fluent in Spanish, Hindi, Russian, Ukrainian, Polish, and Georgian.

Our Cannabis Advisors have in-depth knowledge of every product, from top-shelf flower to popular pre-rolls and edibles, and delight in sharing vital information with every guest. Each shopping experience is personalized, grounded in honest recommendations, and paced at whatever speed makes you most comfortable.
