Wells Street Popcorn

Contemporary, Dessert

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.

Entrée costs not for the budget minded. Our bill was $65 for 3 persons for "coffee shop" dining. Only one other table occupied in entire dining room, which may indicate it's popularity. Did not have a bad experience. but would not dine there again even with a coupon.

Popcorn is spongy. Not crunchy. Ice cream cone was not worth $2:39 And it had ice in it. Like it was melted. Was froze over again. They are doing away with the cones. And Ice cream sandwiches. That were good. And have the kind they scoop up for you. to put in a cup. Or on a cone.

I would say excellent, but the popcorn (caramel) was a little chewy...I'm assuming because of the humidity, but just not as good as usual. Otherwise, everything good. Staff is always friendly!

While Wells Street Popcorn isn't a restaurant, it is a purveyor of delicious caramel corn. We thought we were going to find a competitive match to our favorite Garrett's caramel corn varieties. But sadly Wells Street Popcorn is completely nut-free which is great news for the minority of people that have nut allergies, but hugely disappointing for those who like almonds or pecans mixed into the caramelly-buttery deliciousness for which this celebrated coated popcorn confection is famous.

The popcorn is round,like balls. Not like the kind you make at home, or buy at other stores. And a lot more expensive. I would not pay the full price, even with Restaurant.com, not sure if I would buy from them again.

Love that they joined restaurant.com. Would buy it occasionally as a treat (1-2 times per year), but likely to go there more times per year (up to 12) with their participation in restaurant.com
