Garrett Popcorn Shops

Garrett Popcorn Shops was started by a female entrepreneur, who developed the now-famous recipes in her family kitchen. The first Shops in Chicago sold CaramelCrisp®, CheeseCorn, Buttery and Plain for 5 cents a bag alongside homemade fudge and roasted nuts. Kernels were hot-air popped, CaramelCrisp® was cooked in copper kettles, and finished recipes were hand scooped right before fans’ eyes. Just like today. Our Shops cook small batches of Garrett Popcorn throughout each day. Each batch is made with simple ingredients, no preservatives, and the same secret family recipes handed across generations. Our quality ingredients, welcoming experience, and (almost) addictive taste has made us the Chicago-style gourmet popcorn for over 70 years.
