Absolutely awesome. I love the Carmel crisp, my wife loves the Chicago mix. It ALL GOOD!! Take several bags home, you'll be glad you did.

Dee Evans

Their caramel and chase popcorn mix was delicious and so fresh, definitely recommend. Don't know why Chicago loves their popcorn so much but it's worth a try if you visit

Stefanie

It's good. So if there's no line pop on in and grab a fresh batch as it's best warm. But if there's a long line , pass it by as it's not that amazing.

Another Signature of Chicago !! Try all the Caramel Flavors ( pecans , Almonds and Cashews ) all are good taste 👍 Highly Recommended 👍

Lisa Griffin

THE ULTIMATE SNACK in Chicago! Order the Caramel Corn - it's always served warm - DELICIOUS! The long lines go quick -- the wait is worth it!!! Highly recommend.

There is almost always a line here, so please, know what you are going to order when you reach the register! You had about 20 minutes to decide!

Purchase yourself a bag of the Chicago Mix. It's straight up cheesy, caramelly deliciousness. Be sure to be a dick and take home a bag of plain popcorn , so that your family can resent you even more.

JB A

While delicious, it goes stale after a couple days. Be honest with yourself about how much you'll eat at home three days later.

Justyna Resztak

There's popcorn covered with caramel and nuts , and there's truly gourmet caramel-cashew popcorn from Garrett's. You've never had it better!

Serious Eats

Something strange happens when you mix the CaramelCrisp® and CheeseCorn ™ together evenly. Garrett's dubs this the Chicago Mix, and it's a huge seller because it's salty and sweet.

Ms Helene

Expect to line up with locals and tourists for signature and specialty flavored like almond , cashew or pecan caramelcrisp. Addictive

Jesus Nunez

Try the new White Chocolate Mix! Awesome

Kayla R

Garrett’s mix is what everyone will tell you to get.

Michele K.

The Chicago Mix is SO good! A flight attendant in Detroit threatened to jack me for it because it's so good!

Caroline Ferreira

A Mix (caramel and cheesy popcorn ) From Garret Popcorn is always a good idea! 💛

A local favorite since 1949. The loyal clientele swear that the caramel , cheddar-cheese or old-fashioned butter popcorn is the best around. -- Green Guide Editor

I just can't visit Chicago and not leave with Garrett's Chicago Mix Popcorn !

Matthew Wells

I don't really get all the excitement about popcorn in Chicago and the whole Garret's vs Nut on Clark thing. It's popcorn - sure, it's coated with cheese or Carmel or OMG!!!! CHEESE AND CARMEL !?!?!

Kelly Wuest

Chicago Mix...may sound crazy, but so so so good! (and be sure to grab extra napkins!)
