Our inaugural Best of McKinley Park members’ choice contest is almost over, and there’s just a few days left to vote for your favorites.
Voting ends on the night of Wednesday, November 26, 2025, after which we’ll tally, announce and congratulate neighborhood winners across dozens of categories.
This contest represents not only the most favored dining, shopping, services and community features of Chicago’s McKinley Park neighborhood, it also introduces our community to all listed contestants, who we hope you explore, visit and patronize.
