Popcornopolis

Showed up Saturday morning, 2/​20, told my WHOLE family how good this product was, THE STORE WAS CLOSED! CLOSED! WOW! I don’t recall ever running into a closed store in a big, fancy mall like this one.
Well, I looked foolish in front of my family, like I’d bought a bad used car and it broke down — with my family in it – on the way to church!
Forget Popcornopolis in Chandler Mall. They most certainly forgot about me.

I had a craving for popcorn and My Popcorn Kitchen is sadly a very far drive from where I live. Searching on Unilocal provided me with a great substitute: Popcornopolis! Located in the Chandler Fashion Square mall close to the food court, the popcorn here is truly popcornilicious (If they can make up their own description for popcorn, so can I!). I think per cup it’s more expensive than My Popcorn Kitchen, and the layers of flavoring/​chocolate are more dense, so it’s more of a concentrated, heavier flavor than the lighter tasting popcorn at My Popcorn Kitchen.
Service was excellent and the person at the counter was very generous with the samples :) The current offer right now is buy 3, get 1 popcorn of your choice for free, AND a free nearly naked popcorn! My total for a regular size pumpkin spice, nearly naked, Chicago style, candy cane, and kettle corn was around $ 23 – 24.
I’ll definitely stop here again if I’m in the mall area and am craving some fancy popcorn!

Best caramel apples! The apples are big, the caramel isn’t dried or cracking like other places and the toppings are really thick. We recommend the cheesecake and Oreo apples. We used to go to a few other places but after being spoiled with these caramel apples, the others just don’t measure up.

Tasty popcorn treat! I like the Zebra (carmel and chocolate drizzle), White Cheddar, Kettle Corn and the Nearly Naked! You probably can’t go wrong with any of the flavors. I have huge popcorn fans in my house so I brought home a few flavors to share after a business trip in the Chandler area. They LOVED it.
My experience at this particular store was great! The employee that assisted me was very nice and patient. I tried a bunch of the flavors before I made my decision.

A must to stop at when visiting in the mall since we have a caramel apple addicted in our household. Every time I have stopped in the store I have received exceptional service. The staff is friendly and politely waits while you take your time picking out treats. I highly recommend the jalapeño cheddar popcorn. Such a guilty pleasure but so good!

Best. Popcorn. Ever.
Their kettlecorn & cheddar flavors are great… a little pricey but I think it’s worth it. They pretty much have a flavor for everyone… sweet, savory… they get richer with the premium flavors like cupcake & caramel chocolate.
Ask for a free sample if in doubt.

Popcornopolis came out to sell popcorn at our Fall Festival all the way out here in Surprise and it was a HUGE hit! They have been doing fundraisers for us for a while now and Maria is wonderful! I’ve had the cheddar, nearly naked, kettlecorn, cinnamon toast and ZEBRA CORN. I put the ZEBRA CORN in all caps because Dah-​am is it ever amazing. We sell it by the cone for fundraisers and it is BY FAR the best selling of all the flavors. Chocolately goodness over salty popcorn is heavenly.
As fundraisers go, I can’t recommend Popcornopolis enough. Maria is helpful, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. The popcorn is so fresh you’d think they popped it at that very moment. It’s a long drive to their shop for me, but I will be making the trek out there soon because I really want to stock up for the holidays!

This popcorn is really delicious. Ingredients are rich. It’s a good choice to spend time with it.

Went into this place yesterday for a snack tried the cinnamon toast holy crap is it good wanted to just try it but ended up buying a bag. This stuff is good and addicting try it you won’t be disappointed.

I tried the cheddar cheese and kettle popcorn at the chandler mall a few months ago and i did enjoy it. recently i found popcornopolis at Costco! so i bought the classics 5-​Cone Gift basket which came with caramel, cheddar cheese, kettle, and zebra! it was so delicious and addicting. i loved that i was able to taste other flavors and zebra and caramel are definitely my favorite. I’ve been craving it lately so i placed an order for myself. They are great gifts too.

I went with a mix via the counter girl’s suggestion:
Caramel
Sour cream and onion
Nacho cheese (jalepeno is in it!)
Sweet, spicy and savory. Highly, highly highly addictive.

Popcorn = YUMMY!
Caramel Apples = Not the best, but they have the concept down… my apple was a little mushy and not sweet and tart like a good caramel apple represents…
Cotton Candy = Addictive and would make someone die and go to sugar heaven! =D
Overall, this place is Great! and has impressive service along with some yummy treats!

I love kettle popcorn! Of coursed it’s at it best on a fair freshly popped, salty and sweet and crunchy. Microwave corn is an in case of emergency and bag one, meh.
Kettle corn at Popcornopolis is delicious! It would be perfect if it was hot, but that would be asking too much:)
I also really like the nacho cheese which is pretty spicy and the sour cream and onion. It’s great that you can mix different types of popcorn in the cone if you want to!
Oh! And you can have samples of any and all popcorn flavors!
Besides popcorn they had other treats like caramel/​chocolate apples and dipped bananas.
The people working there are very nice and helpful. They even got my 2 y/​o extra popcorn on a little plate:)
It’s a bit pricey but worth it.

Ever since Kukuruza Popcorn in AZ Mills shut down I’ve gone to hell and back to try and find a cheddar popcorn that could stack up to theirs. I used to brave that hell hole of a mall just to fill up on those little kernels of cheesy salty goodness. Well, when AZ Mills started its painfully obvious downward slide towards ghetto-​ness, Kukuruza lost it’s market and was one of the casualties.
For a couple years now I’ve yearned for some cheddar popcorn that could compare to Kukuruza’s. I had no luck until I found Popcornopolis. It’s a new little popcorn shop in Chandler Fashion Square. I heard about it through one of my brothers rants… he was ranting about how people spend way too much money on stuff that should be cheap… his first example was this popcorn place he had seen in the mall (this place) which charges five or six bucks for a tiny bag of popcorn… his rant should have turned me off like it was indented to… but it did the opposite, it put Popcornopolis on my radar.
I decided to go pick some up before seeing a movie this last weekend. I figure I’d go spend about five bucks on some ‘expensive’ popcorn, yet still save money from what I would pay for underwhelming theater popcorn, go figure. Upon entering, its clear this place has a really artisan appearance… it looked like the type of place you could get some mighty tasty snacks in, just based on looks alone… even if you are paying a little more than usual. We were greeted by one of the workers who asked us if she could ‘give us the tour’. Of course we said yes to that! What followed was a unholy barrage of samples of just about every type of popcorn I could imagine. We were given samples of probably 15 or so different flavors of popcorn… we were given so much free samples in fact, that I was almost too stuffed to actually buy some. Just to name a few… here are some we tried:
Cinnamon Toast — Tasted remarkably just like real Cinnamon Toast.
Sour Cream and Onion — Tasted like a potato chip… very strong onion flavor.
Almond — Fresh and crunchy with little pieces of almonds… quite good.
Zebra — Way too rich… too much going on with this one.
Kettle — Perfect mix of salty and sweet… some of the better kettle corn I’ve tried.
Nacho — If you like spicy, you’ll love this… my mouth was on fire after just a couple pops.
Cheddar — And now for the big daddy of them all… the whole reason I tried this place. I’m proud to say that Popcornopolis knows how to brew up a tasty batch of cheddar popcorn. Strong cheesy and buttery flavor… crunchy on the outside yet soft and chewy on the inside… with a healthy coating of flaky cheddar cheese powder… I finally found a cheddar popcorn to replace my old flame.
If you’re in the Chandler Mall area… I say give this place a try. It is a tad on the pricier side… but at the very least go in and get some free samples. Popcorn if done right can be such a gourmet treat, and Popcornopolis is one of the few places that nails the concept of ‘gourmet popcorn’. They also sell some pretty good lucking caramel apples and chocolates, but I didn’t leave enough room to try any of those. I hope this place succeeds, so that I’m not stuck with a cheddar popcorn void in my life… every few months I NEED cheddar popcorn, is that so wrong?! In the meantime I better go wipe this yellow cheddar powder off of my upper lip.
