omg!!! love love love this place. amazing white cheddar and carmel pecan is my ultimate favorite!!!

Love this place! Not only is it a great place to pick up an amazing range of flavored (or unflavored) popcorn, but they also have a small candy shop and fresh homemade fudge varieties. And, to my surprise, they’re a great place for little knickknacks for small gifts or stocking stuffers… or just for yourself. They have a small selection of interesting pop flavors to choose from too! And the staff bends over backward to make sure you have a great experience.

First time here tonight. Staff was very friendly. I love, love, love popcorn! I have had Garrett popcorn at airport in Chicago and I fell in love with the Garrett mix. This place has the closest mix called Chicago I’ve ever had that compares to Garretts. Their popcorn here is fresh and they have a great variety of flavors and candy. Much better than Popcorn Pharmacy. Plus if you buy 4 bags, you get one free.

Popcorn is sooo good! The owner will let you sample before you buy too. Fudge is also excellent. Popcorn and fudge are made in house. They also have some standard kinds of bulk candies.

Super friendly staff and excellent flavors. They use real ingredients instead of powders. I absolutely love the peanut butter chocolate its delicious. They also have a large assortment of candies; including gummies, taffy, and lollipops.

Okay, I was really skeptical about a place like this. Don’t ask me why. It simply prematurely fell into the «uh why» area of my mind. But today Jeff and I were out and about, and he wanted Qdoba, which is right next to K&K. For some reason, I got an itch to check it out.
The shop is small, but what it does have is interesting, familiar, and new. They have candies I’ve never seen before with a smaller assortment of run of the mill candies. And there is a little island for different candies you buy by the pound (or less, of course), such as rock candy, jelly beans, different sorts of chocolates, gummy candies, etc. Not to mention the interesting pops (like Pop’s but a smaller selection), which I got a pineapple/​orange called Kitty Piddle and another one that is cranberry/​cherry. I was eyeing the fudge and truffles but decided to reign it in for the day. It did look delicious, though.
The size to price ratio seems fair to me. I tasted all the popcorn I bought (cheddar, white chocolate pretzel) and also what my boyfriend bought (jalapeño cheddar, hot and spicy) and that is some quality popcorn. It isn’t stiff and completely artificial tasting like you get in the popcorn tins in supermarkets. All the information for prices and sizing are out in clear view and available in laminated paper on the counter, as well as exact sizing and prices on the website.
At the end of the day, I left with the two pops, two bags of popcorn (cheddar and white chocolate pretzel, respectively), and a Warheads candy (like a Baby Bottle Pop). I spent a certain amount of money (I think… $ 11?) so they tossed in a bag of buttery popcorn for free, and since I hit $ 20, I was also entered to win a basket. So that’s neat!

This place is so cute inside. It’s small but it has a wonderful selection and it’s displayed wonderfully. They have fudge, all flavors of popcorn, taffy, specialty pops by the bottle. The most wonderful thing about this store though is the owners. They are the nicest people. They are incredibly helpful and very personable. I def recommend this place!

Awesome place! Great popcorn, tons of unique candy and soda. Spicy Buffalo, chocolate peanut butter, and caramel pecan popcorn are must try, oh and banana pudding. The fudge is ridiculous too!
