The Little Popcorn Store, Wheaton

Always consistently excellent from the popcorn to the friendliness of the staff. Popcorn prices are great and they have a variety of sizes from just a snack to a huge party bag. Huge selection of candy with hard to find favorites from my youth. Love everything about this store. Please don't change a thing.

They don’t need me to review them—they’ve been here 100 years. Get your popcorn, get your old-timey candies, get your nostalgia fix, and enjoy your goodies as you walk around historic downtown Wheaton or sit right outside by the fire feature. They’re only letting in 4 people at a time currently due to COVID, but it works out perfectly for me bc I’m using a cane while I heal from throwing my back out. It’s an extremely narrow hallway that probably used to be an alley, so it’s best to send one person in to get your fix. The candy is located on the left wall, and you could probably reach out your right arm and touch the other wall, if you’re not short and physically disabled. Tall people could also likely reach the top shelves of candy, so bring your designated Tall Friend. No bathroom info as I would think it’s for employees only due to the small space, but there are plenty of other places right near the store where one could have access to a bathroom. The outside seating is really nice, too. Lots of options from wrought iron seating, to benches, to concrete half-walls I use as lean-to’s. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for the special needs mom who is now herself temporarily disabled
