🍬 Ladies and gentlemen, prepare your sweet teeth and loosen those belts—I've discovered a time machine disguised as a candy shop! The Incredible Popcorn & Candy Shop isn't just a store; it's what would happen if your childhood dreams mugged Willy Wonka and ran off with his best ideas.
Walking in feels like you've stumbled into your grandparents' stories about "the good old days," minus the part where they had to walk uphill both ways in the snow to get there. The vintage decor hits you with such nostalgic charm that I caught myself checking if my smartphone had transformed into a rotary dial.
The staff? They're sweeter than their inventory—and that's saying something. These candy concierges have the patience of saints, especially when you're having your fifteenth existential crisis about choosing between chocolate-covered everything or that rainbow popcorn that looks like a unicorn sneezed on it. They'll guide you through their sugary wonderland with the expertise of seasoned sugar sommeliers.
Speaking of popcorn, their selection makes movie theater popcorn look like amateur hour. They've got flavors that'll make your taste buds file a thank-you note with your brain. And the old-school candy selection? It's like they raided your grandpa's secret stash from 1952 and put it all on display.
Fair warning: You might enter planning to "just look around" and leave two hours later with enough candy to make your dentist pre-emptively book your next appointment. But hey, that's not buyer's remorse in your shopping bag—that's pure, crystallized joy.
Pro tip: Bring cash, not because they don't take cards, but because it adds to that authentic "penny candy" experience. Though these days, you might need a few more pennies than your grandparents did. Thanks, inflation, for making us count our quarters instead of our blessings.
Bottom line: If you're looking for a place where nostalgia meets sugar rush, where the staff treats you like family (the favorite child, not the one who always breaks things), and where happiness is measured in ounces of popcorn—you've found your sweet spot. Just remember to brush your teeth after. And maybe during. Possibly before, too.
5/5 stars - Would risk...
Read moreBe prepared to get sticky hands, even if you are careful. The cups your ice cream is placed in are short and relatively small, but the ice cream is piled high and out over the edges... it has a very appealing look, but mine was dripping over the edges by the time my partner was even served. The spoons seemed a bit flimsy to me. If you have kids in tow be sure to bring wipes or a damp wash cloth because if all the outside seating is full and the grandkids want to eat in your car...well you know, the thing.
0n a positive side there were lots of cool flavors to pick from and overall, this grumpy old man can't complain. The throwback candy for sale is something to see if long for the days of penny candy. Also, the specialty popcorn is a must try as is the homemade candy.
Overall, Incredible Popcorn falls short of it's name by only a tiny millimeter, thus the 4 Star Rating from this once a month ice cream consumer. When Granma see my review she is going to ask why why I didn't take a picture of my🍦 because the three different flavors piled my into my relatively small "medium" cup looked so good to her that she had to try each one of them before I even had my...
Read moreWhen you promise a broken-hand kid a decent milkshake in early November, finding this place was a blessing. Incredible Popcorn - while I was confused at first- rose the the top of the search results. This small shop felt like walking into a branch of Willy Wonka's. Candy and popcorn everywhere. We perused while waiting for our milkshakes. Old candy, new candy, gross candy, and popcorn. Weird colored (green and read caramel), weird flavors (shrimp scapmi) but it all drew us in. We left with a Zagnut bar, gummy sunny-side-up eggs, brownie batter popcorn and our as-promised milkshakes. We had to share the new find with the rest of the family. The milkshakes were served with gummy frogs hanging off of the whip cream! Our short, but successful, stop lead to us looking forward to our doctor appointments in Bloomsburg. To my son's dismay, I did not let him try the SuperShake. From what we've gathered, it's a sundae/shake experience. We'll save that one for a whole...
