Gave it a 4 star overall: taste (5) price (3). I used to live in IL and every time I visited Chicago I made sure to stop by at a Garrett store. They always had this sweet caramel smell that made me feel happy and mouth water. The store in NYC was no different. They had nice atmosphere (aka sweet smell) flavor was no different than what I tasted in Chicago, IL! This became my must-stop place whenever I visit NYC! They are also generous with samples! If you are a popcorn lover and willing to pay some extra bucks to enjoy some high-end flavored popcorn, I recommend you give it a try!

I love the popcorn from here! There is no where else like it here in NYC. I like to go for the "garret mix", you get the best of both worlds between sweet and salty. Truly delicious.
They are doing a good job fundraising but I have tasted better popcorn. Especially the caramel one
Creating this review as I indulge in my Garrett/ Chicago mix. This place is hard to miss, located right on 34th and 7th ave! Upon entering, you're hit with the aroma of a buttery and sweet scent. How could you ever pass up on buying some of this popcorn goodness. The hard part is deciding if you want the regular, caramel or cheddar cheese popcorn. You can ask for a sample before you make a decision but then you find out that you like the caramel and the cheddar... now what do you do? Well actually, they have an option known as the Garrett mix where they will put half cheese and half caramel in the bag and mix it up for you. Usually, I'm not a fan of mixing sweet and savory but this makes an acceptation. I just hate when I receive stale popcorn... thats so disappointing and makes me want to reframe from the cheddar because its happened one too many times.
Popcorn is delicious and addictive! Be sure to try the cheese/caramel pecan mix; it's amazing!
Stopping here was recommended by a friend of mine from Chicago. Glad I listened. The popcorn is really tasty. I tried cheese and caramel and both were delicious. I believe they also offered buttered, as well as caramel with nuts (macadamia, cashews, or almonds). What I like best about the popcorn is that every piece tastes the same so the flavor is evenly distributed unlike other popcorn I have had. The line tends to be out the door, but the staff keep it moving along fairly steadily. Great stop for a treat.
Love popcorn. Love flavored popcorn. Garrett delivers. I'm a huge fan of caramel corn. Garrett's caramel is more of a buttery caramel. Much lighter in color and sweetness than say, Cracker Jack, but still incredibly delicious. New to me on my most recent trip was the spicy cheese popcorn. It's got the great cheese flavor I was used to with a enough spice to make it interesting. For me it was a mild spice, but eating enough of it built up a decent amount of heat in my mouth. I enjoy that, you may not. A handful of caramel will make it all better though. As the bag suggests, don't get more than you're willing/able to eat within a day or two. The popcorn will retain it's taste but lose it's crunch. Still delicious, but much less satisfying to eat.
This place is proof that even popcorn can be gourmet food. This is popcorn paradise, no less. Caramel, cheese, plain and more sort of popcorn as well as almonds, cashews and pecans. All are just so so good. Many different bag sizes and combinations to choose from. Do NOT skip this place when around.
