Garrett Popcorn Shops® - A Chicago Tradition from the USA Since 1949
Since 1949, Garrett Popcorn Shops serves gourmet popcorn using wholesome ingredients in their secret family recipes, passed down for generations. Custom grown, non-GMO kernels are first hot-air popped, then enriched with flavor in seasoned, old-fashioned Copper Kettles. Because good things take time, Garrett Popcorn is only handcrafted in small batches throughout the day for ultimate freshness.
In addition to limited time, seasonal flavours, Garrett Signature Recipes include: CaramelCrisp® (which can be selected with nuts), CheeseCorn, Buttery (a vegan treat), Plain and the famous Garrett Mix® – the original Chicago-style popcorn, which blends the sophisticated sweetness of CaramelCrisp® with the savoury goodness of CheeseCorn.
Garrett enchants adoring fans around the world. In addition to 13 locations in hometown Chicago, Garrett Popcorn Shops also has shops in Las Vegas, Detroit, Atlanta, Dallas, Washington D.C, Dubai, Singapore, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Japan, Thailand and South Korea.
