The trippiest place in Springfield has again been voted the best place to buy cannabis accessories, taking back a title last claimed in 2019. Penny Lane was also recognized for its vast selection of cannabidiol (CBD).
The business started out in 1968 as a hopping pinball arcade with beanbags and waterbeds for sale. Joe Utterback purchased the business a few years later, and it operated out of several locations before moving to its current space on MacArthur Boulevard in 1983. Originally occupying one building, it expanded to the south over the years and now takes up more than 10,000 square feet.
Penny Lane has since expanded to carry a plethora of merchandise across a wide variety of categories, including 2,155 cannabis-use products spanning hand pipes in a range of materials, water pipes, hookahs, vapes and related paraphernalia. The store's extensive inventory is meticulously cataloged online at pennylanegifts.com (You must be 21 years of age or older to view or buy cannabis-use products.)
While all products needed for a happy high are available through the store's website, a visit to the physical storefront is a cool, black-lit experience. Penny Lane is a sensational crowd favorite – and always has been. The business is still family-owned and continues to meet the trip-facilitation needs of Springfield's most chilled-out and peace-loving crowds.
