“This quaint popcorn and candy store has been around since 1921, and at its current location in a covered alleyway since 1935. It would be easy to miss the little shop if it wasn’t for its bright red door,” The Daily Herald writes.
The cherished landmark in the heart of downtown Wheaton is located at 111 1/4 Front Street, according to the store’s website.
The Little Popcorn Shop is perhaps one of the most loved and narrowest stores in the Chicagoland area measuring 49 inches wide by 60 feet long. The store’s small, quaint space is like walking into a Norman Rockwell painting. Popcorn is freshly popped, candy lines the wall, and locals greet each other warmly while welcoming newcomers to this very special place called The Little Popcorn Shop.
Other suburban businesses to make the Daily Herald’s list include: Port Edward Restaurant in Algonquin, The Choo-Choo in Des Plaines and Chessie’s Restaurant in Barrington.
