Terence ChanSeptember 18, 2018Get the Chicago mix! Or caramel if you prefer savory or just get anything because it’s all soooo good. You’ve never paid this much for popcorn but worth it! 4/5Upvote3Downvote
AFAR MediaAugust 4, 2014Be forewarned: once you open the waxed paper bag, you can't stop eating this stuff. Your fingers will get kind of orange-y, sticky and greasy (in a good way). Suffice it to say, it's highly addictive. Read more

Erin BakerMay 25, 2014If you've ever been to Chicago and not had Windy City mix, shame on you!! I ship this stuff as a gift to people, it's so good. The only caramel corn in the world I will eat!Upvote4Downvote
Karla ThorpeApril 16, 2012Definitely get the Chicago Mix. A perfect combination of caramel and cheddar-cheese. At the Michigan Ave location, the line is always really long (especially in the summer) so be prepared to wait.Upvote1Downvote
Andy RDecember 27, 2016I can not recommend it, I felt cheated. It practically has two flavors: cheese and caramel. The popcorn gets mixed up and the attendant bundles the popcorn coarsely.

Michelin Travel & LifestyleAugust 2, 2011A local favorite since 1949. The loyal clientele swear that the caramel, cheddar-cheese or old-fashioned butter popcorn is the best around. -- Green Guide EditorUpvote4Downvote

Erik PlathAugust 11, 2013The homeless people are super aggressive here. They will plow thru the line, knocking down the ropes, looking for change. Staff didn't seem to care.UpvoteDownvote
