Wells Street Popcorn

Contemporary

Wells Street Popcorn's recipes have been in the family since the 1930's. A very inspiring family member of ours rode his popcorn cart down cobblestone "Wells Street" in Chicago selling his specialty to young and old alike. His dream was to share his family's recipe for the impeccable caramel corn so that it may be passed down for future generations to enjoy. At Wells Street Popcorn, we have recreated his dream. The original caramel corn recipe is still a favorite along with a variety of other delicious flavors. We pop our kernels daily on site at each of our three locations so that our customers experience only the freshest and the finest popcorn. Our communities are special to us, and we are dedicated to serving every member so that they can experience our families dream.

Purchased popcorn. Didn't like fact that I had to spend an extra 1.99, because the popcorn was 19.99 and you had to spend 20.00. in order to get full use of coupon.

After purchasing a 1lb bucket of popcorn ($29), I realized it would only cost me $10 to buy two small bags. Within a minute of the purchase, I asked the sales lady if it could be returned (sealed) and another purchase made. She said no. So I am cautioning everyone to think twice before making a outrageously expensive bucket purchase.

Wells Street Popcorn has delicious popcorn! They do not have tree nuts or peanuts in any of their products which is a welcome relief for people with nut allergies.

we have been getting popcorn from here for a few years. We have sometimes been disappointed because the quality is not always the same. We have received burnt kernals, which are not very tastey.

This is not a restaurant, but a popcorn stand. I bought their popcorn as a Christmas gift. I have eaten their popcorn from their Oak Park location and it is good and fresh. Prices are reasonable and in line with all the major popcorn stands.
