Poppy Popcorn is the best! Unique, great-tasting flavors that are way more special and memorable than anything you would find in the typical grocery store aisle. We have given bags and tins as holiday gifts, and my mother-in-law stocks up every time she comes to visit. Highly recommend!

Poppy popcorn is amazing, the best!But please check your map. I used to visit the store when they were up on Merrimon to get popcorn. Made a trip to downtown Asheville today to grab some popcorn, assuming their storefront had just moved but but I found there is no longer a storefront at all after walking around pack square.Just order online or at a local retailer.

Check your map! We walked around that monument a few times before realizing there was an error and that Ashville, NC with a zip code ISNT an address!No popcorn for us. Super bummer. Really wanted to eat some popcorn. Good thing Savannah Raes offers shipping.

I’ve had this popcorn before at other stores throughout NC, and when I heard there was a storefront in Asheville I had to stop while we were there! It was a great experience, with wonderful and friendly people working there, and lots of yummy samples. Popcorn is SO flavorful and in my opinion is very reasonably priced! I love Poppy’s and hope to support them more again.

Poppy makes the best popcorn. We visited their store and they have so many different flavours!! The Chicago mix is a pretty standard flavour, so they made the Charlotte mix. It’s white cheddar mixed with caramel, so good. We bought a bunch of bags. They don’t ship to Canada so next time I visit, I’ll buy even more.

I tried some Poppy Popcorn that I found in a local shop and was amazed at the flavor and quality. I live in Arizona so I decided to see if they had online sales and sure enough there we all the mouth watering options. I ordered a few small bags to try flavors not available here.Turns out that when I went to order again, 1 flavor I really wanted was not a permanent flavor. I decided that something so yummy simply must be still available. This is when Sarah replied to my query and explained that the one I wanted was not available on their website and assured me it would return. Sarah also offered, she was able to find be the last 4 bags and offered to take care of everything for me.I manage teams of customer service people and think customer satisfaction around the clock. Sarah took care of me in a way that I continuously inspire in my teams. If all the Poppy employees are even half as customer friendly they would all be exceptional.The teams I manage are in the thousands. Weekly I send out a 5 minute video and sometime highlight a interaction that I felt was meaningful to me. I intend to introduce my team to Poppy products and especially Sarah very soon!Buy their products because like their popcorn their people are great!

Great selection! Being from out of town, we showed up as they were closing and the young lady was very patient in waiting on us still. The Spicy Dill was a favorite for sure!!

I love gourmet popcorn to begin with and I am so glad I visited Poppys to purchase a few holiday gifts and popcorn for myself. Everyone was incredibly friendly and let me taste test any popcorn I would like! I was already happy with my purchases when I saw a stand with Poppys Popcorn in NYC the following week. I was interested to find out more about their story. Turns out their story is more inspiring than I would have thought and I cant wait to go support them more!

I received a 3 pack as a gift from a Company I work with. The Chocolate popcorn was amazing its easy to eat the whole bag at 1 time. Caramel is really good to. It came with the Jalapeno flavored and I hate hot stuff But tried it anyways and it was really goo . Looking now to see where I can get more at in my area.

I challenge anyone out there to find better popcorn. I am a popcorn fanatic and I know good popcorn. I do believe I could probably eat an entire large bag by myself (I don’t know if that a brag or a pitiful confession). I recently got the dark chocolate drizzle and pretzels popcorn and I now have a full blown obsession. Like fight your husband over the last bit problem! Their secret - quality ingredients and the most tender perfect popcorn on the planet. I dare you to get some, any flavor, and not like it.

The popcorn is a thing of beauty. Delicious, fresh. Just had Poppy blend. A little hot, a bit of caramel sweetness to offset and some cheddar to bring it all to a fantastic culmination of YUMMY.

This popcorn has been our go-to for neighborhood children at Halloween. We buy a big bag of cotton candy (which meets a dairy-allergy requirement), and we divvy it up. The customer service at the store is jolly, and the smell of that place heavenly.

I purchased my first bag a while ago and was blown away. It is on the expensive side but, after tasting, you will have to agree it is worth treating yourself! I indulged again yesterday thanks to the discount from my Arboretum membership:-). The bag provided 7 servings. My boyfriend and I ate it in all one sitting. Seriously. Once you start, you cannot stop! The crunch of freshness and the perfect blend of flavors from first bite to last. First place all the way! Kudos to Poppy Popcorn!!!!

I used Poppy Handcrafted Popcorn for my wedding favors. Ginger made this SUCH an easy process. She was really great a communicating and is super personable. We got to do a taste testing (amazing) and pick our flavors for the popcorn bar. On the wedding day, they came and set everything up in a beautiful display! After the wedding the came and picked everything up and bagged the left over popcorn for us to take home. I didnt have to worry about a thing! Everyone LOVED the popcorn bar...I got so many compliments on how delicious every flavor was and how much fun it was to make popcorn goody bags to take home (though most couldnt wait that long ha). It was a huge hit!!! I highly recommend them to anyone!!!

We used Poppys popcorn for our wedding favors. It was such a hit! They were very helpful with the display and signage, dropping off the popcorn, etc. All we really had to do was pick out the flavors which are all fantastic and the sticker design and bag type. Such easy and friendly people to work with and a really tasty product. Poppys is now a regular stop on our trips to Asheville!

My co-worker and I are enjoying a mid-morning feast of the Asheville Mix. The sweet and salty blend is fabulous! Were grateful to be flying solo today because were going to polish off this tin. Hooray for YUMMY holiday gifts :-)

Really good popcorn... but very expensive. Some of my coworkers received popcorn from our boss for Christmas and I got to try some. The one with chocolate bits was very good, but I think the rosemary popcorn was my favorite.

Happy to support fundraisers for local schools - but the $18 bag of popcorn is stale and ridiculously priced (11 oz bag). Marked as cheddar flavored, but not a trace of the flavor. This Asheville company should be ashamed for providing this low quality product for local elementary school fundraiser!
