We saw this as one of the top things to do in Bar Harbor. It didn't disappoint! It's a small shop with limited flavors (for that day anyway). But we bought the big bucket of salt & sweet (like kettle corn). I think it lasted maybe 3 days!! Definitely put this on your list when visiting. read more

Bar Harbor Popcorn - Salt & Sweet! - Popcorn Shops Near Me - Bar Harbor, Maine

The popcorn: out of this world. We got the Salt Sweet and by golly it knocked our socks off. The store was manned by a sweetheart of a man as well. The shop was incredibly cute with a charming local atmosphere. All in all a wonderful experience, we can't wait to go back next year. read more

I believe the gentleman that was taking care of us was the owner, he was very nice and explained a bit how the popcorn was made and packed. We got the blueberry in the two sizes to take home to family and for my work to share. We asked if the popcorn would keep for at least 5 days sealed since we had a while before we headed back home to our hometown. We tried some for the first time when our family opened the popcorn and was pleasantly surprised at how delish it was. Still crunchy too!! Not stale at all! Everyone that we shared it with had never tried blueberry popcorn and they thought it was yummy. Not too sweet perfectly balanced. Lovely option other than caramel popcorn. definitely a must visit if you're in the bar harbor area. Very glad we stopped in and popcorn was available in BH. We will be back the next time we visit in the future. read more

The food, the ambiance, the service was all 10/10! The popcorn is the most amazing popcorn I think I've ever tasted. I've tried the original, blueberry, and cheddar flavors and all are perfect. The popcorn itself has an exquisite texture and the owner puts in the perfect amount of ingredients for what you are getting. He also makes the popcorn with so much care which is always so nice to see. I am definitely coming back, I saw they have online shipping so I may do that as well lol read more

Their scratch-made Wild Blueberry popcorn is delicious! Perfectly sweet and salty. 4 of us devoured the small size in one night. Excellent customer service. read more

Best. Popcorn. Ever. Nice owner, delicious product, decent shop hours, GREAT take-home container. This is a small shop that faces the Village Green in Bar Harbor. They make the popcorn on-site and sell it in lidded plastic containers. The tubs with tops are one of my favorite aspects of this shop! We bought 2 large containers ($20 each) but don't have to rush to eat it because the nice containers keep it fresh for days. Perfect! I absolutely love the blueberry flavor. It's not too sweet or and doesn't taste like artificial blueberry either (they make it using a blueberry purée). My spouse's favorite is the cheddar, which he says is the best cheese popcorn he's ever eaten. Conveniently, it's open 11-5:30 every day of the week (at least it is now, during the summer season). This was our 2nd time in Bar Harbor and our 2nd time at this shop. I can't imagine going to Bar Harbor in the future and not going to this place! read more

Very mediocre Carmel corn, tastes more like kettle corn. Could not sample anything, I don't want to spend $13 on Blueberry popcorn if I'm unsure I will like it. And the plastic buckets, come on use a more sustainable option. read more

The blueberry popcorn is delicious! The owner was very friendly and made us feel at home.

I stumbled into this store while perusing through the fair market on the plaza. The two gentlemen staff were friendly and cooking up a fresh batch of blueberry flavored popcorn so I had to get one. At first bite, the blueberry is kind of a subtle note, but after a couple more bites, it really grew on me and now I'm in love with this popcorn flavor and am already half way through a large bucket! read more

Love this place! Amazing popcorn. We tried the blueberry popcorn and the regular butter. Both were delicious. The blueberry was just the right amount of blueberry. I was pleased to find you can order online and have it shipped to your home. read more

A fun and different gift idea to bring a bite of Bar Harbor to friends and family. Where else can you get BLUEBERRY popcorn? For the age of Covid, the store has popcorn buckets and cold drinks available for purchase outside, and someone will come out to help you with tender. It's a quick and safe shopping experience. read more

Loved the salt sweet (kettle corn) popcorn here. The man that worked here was so kind and friendly. We loved the popcorn so much we finished our first purchase and went back for more! read more

Stopped by here and got a large blueberry popcorn. All I gotta say is it was yummy. As my wife says, it's the best popcorn in town, but it's the only fresh popcorn store in town and that's probably because it's not worth some other company wasting their time opening up. read more

Visited Bar Harbor Popcorn back in 2016 and was delighted to find them in the same location again. This place has the best popcorn ever. The kernels are enormous, fresh and delicious. You won't find unpeopled kernels in the bottom of the bag or tub. There are many flavors to choose from but I'm a fan of natural pop corn and purchased a big tub. The tub sealed well and we enjoyed the tub for a few days and the popcorn was freshet the bottom as day one. Bar Harbor Popcorn will ship for you too. read more

We were so glad to visit Bar Harbor Popcorn while on our vacation to Bar Harbor a couple weeks ago. Craig and his family do a great job especially during these difficult times with Covid. He has a great setup to ensure the safety of his customers. Craig was very friendly and helpful. He shared about the flavors of his popcorn and helped us decide which we flavor to purchase. We decided to purchase the blueberry and were very happy with our choice. The flavor of the popcorn was outstanding. It was a great balance. Please go out and support local small businesses like Bar Harbor Popcorn, you won't regret it! read more

Amazing popcorn and the employee was so kind. Everyone should stop by when they're in Bar Harbor!

I paid $13 for cheddar popcorn and it had very little flavor or taste. I went back to the hotel and tossed it. I should have gotten the caramel corn. read more

Delicious popcorn and great staff. We came 15min after close, not knowing when it closes, and the owner was about to leave but still let us purchase a bucket. We got kettle corn and they were delicious! read more

Such a cool place with a lot of flavors. We settled for the cheese which was a tough decision but a winner. Please check them out...

While you can't go inside and try/mix flavors like you could before Covid, you can still buy fresh tubs. I mix the cheddar and caramel. So delicious! I'm not sure if it was the owner or just an employee but there was a really sweet and friendly gentleman working there on sept 16th when we picked up two tubs to bring back to NY with us. I should have gotten a third! Next time... read more

Bar Harbor Popcorn is a small shop with no place to sit. The counter doubles up as popcorn tanks, and they welcome sampling of their wares. Their popcorn flavors are tasty and their corn pop up fluffy and round. With their popcorn going for $5.50 for a small, $8 for a medium tub (10oz), and $13.50 for large (28 oz), I went big to take home and asked for a combo of blueberry and maple. The flavors were scooped such that they sat in layers, so I had to eat enough maple before I could shuffle the rest aside so I could reach the blueberry. They told me the tub was airtight and would keep the popcorn fresh for a week. I'll have to remember to bring my tub the next time I head out to Bar Harbor, as they offer a dollar off on tub refills. read more

OMG, I love popcorn and this popcorn was delicious . I bought sweet salty. I will be trying other flavors next time I visit and update my post. But I'm thinking I'll love them all. Support your small business. read more

I think as a Covid precaution, they have it roped off and you pick your popcorn outside the store. It was delicious for sure, but also super expensive for a tin of popcorn! We had the blueberry and the cheddar and both were great. read more

This really is good popcorn. I guess caramel corn is standard, cheesy corn and kettle corn. But a person needs skills to package a good butter popcorn, so you can taste the butter flavor and feel a little grease but the popcorn is stable and won't go rancid. This popcorn really delivers the buttery flavor, the popcorn "experience" in a handy plastic go-anywhere tub. I'm going to mail order some, it's that good. read more

DELICIOUS! Funny that we were on a cruise that had a Popcorn Frappe on the menu in one of the cafe's but they couldn't make me the drink for a few days because they didnt have any popcorn. So when we got out in Maine (one of the stops), we stumbled into this popcorn shop so we purchased a few popcorn flavors so I can finally have my drink. The staff here is really friendly and the popcorn flavors are delicious. My favorite was the blueberry flavor. The cruise cafe eventually made me the drink which I didnt like but I'm glad we found this popcorn shop because it is absolutely delicious. read more

This popcorn is delicious! We tried the caramel and cheddar and together they were so good! We definitely like the caramel the best, it's a nice light coating that's just sweet enough! The owner is also very nice which really made our visit to his store. read more

Wow. They do popcorn right! We popped in on a cold October afternoon for some popcorn. My wife's got the caramel corn and declared it to be the best she has ever had. I had the sweet and salty. It was excellent. It is a tiny store, and it smells delicious. We we warmly greeted and encouraged to taste before bought. He made a point of sealing our purchase in a plastic bag to keep it fresh. Very thoughtful and obviously he want to be sure you enjoy your purchase. read more

Great service! The owner (at least I think he was the owner) patiently offered different samples and we ended up choosing two types: blueberry and cheese. They are light and flavorful, not overly doused in butter. read more

Amazing caramel popcorn! Tastes like cracker jacks of my childhood, with big fluffy pieces and no "old maids."

We stopped by to see the sun catcher store next door to quickly realize was not a place to be with kids. Decided to walk in the popcorn shop. They offered us up some samples right away and were super friendly. Got talking to the owner and had a great conversation on Vermont vs Maine maple syrup. Heard how he came to have maple syrup and blueberry flavored popcorn. Ended up going maple syrup because is something we've never had. My family of five demolished the tub and declared it a flavor victory. I'm always hesitant with different flavors not knowing if there will be a weird aftertaste and this didn't. Was awesome!!! Happy we stopped in. read more

Bar Harbor Popcorn - In front of Bar Harbor Popcorn - Popcorn Shops Near Me - Bar Harbor, Maine

One of my favorite popcorn places. Such a cute, authentic, family owned popcorn shop. Spent about 5 days in Bar Harbor, ME and visited this place multiple times during our stay. Popcorn comes in a variety of delicious flavors -- each as good as the next one! Blueberry, a Maine staple, was different and delicious. I am partial to the salty sweet -- a gentle kettle corn flavor. The popcorn can be taken on the go -- we brought ours on our Whale Watch, back to the hotel for a movie night, and with us for a night under the stars on Sand Beach in Acadia. If this review isn't enough to let you know how great this popcorn is and how much we love it, maybe the 3 tubs in the back seat of our car will be enough to convince you! Haha! Taking some back home for the family in New York. Bar Harbor Popcorn, stay great -- never change and we will see you next time FOR SURE read more

This is more of an old-fashioned popcorn shop, not the newfangled type with 57 outlandish flavors (although those can be fun and tasty too). They offer four varieties: plain/butter, caramel, maple, and blueberry. They use real Maine maple syrup and real Maine wild blueberries, and those flavors are subtle and fresh tasting, not sugary. Plus the kernels themselves pop up huge and fluffy. The plain popcorn seemed stale, but I bought a bag of the blueberry and enjoyed it over the next several days. It's a delicious local twist on a classic product. read more

I stumbled on this place while on vacation simply because we parked in front of the store. Boyfriend loves blueberries so we decided to check it out after we grabbed dinner and walked around for a bit. Like the other reviews stated: they have 3 flavors - maple, caramel, and blueberry. The maple is boyfriend's favorite. The sweetness is light so that it never (and I mean never) gets sickening. In terms in taste, think of a perfectly roasted marshmallow. Literally the best caramelization I've ever had on a popcorn. The caramel flavor was very good. Normally I'm not a fan of the overly sweet caramel but it was definitely worth trying here. Again they find the balance of sweet very well so that you don't get too tired of it. The owner said it was the best selling flavor, with blueberry a very close second, and maple a very close third. Finally, my absolute favorite flavor: blueberry! Like other reviewers, I also hate the artificial blueberry taste so I've always steered clear of getting blueberry flavored things. But the blueberries used on this popcorn are the real deal. Maine wild blueberries are the best. So sweet and perfect! You can see bits of blueberries on the popcorn and you feel like you're eating an actual blueberry. We got the $7 (medium) bucket and it lasted us a good amount of time. They pack the bucket full to the point where it pushes against the lid when closed. Definitely a good deal and a must go-to when in Bar Harbor! read more

Solid popcorn. For $15 dollars we had the popcorn as a midnight snack and a treat on our drive back to NYC! Def recommended

The best popcorn I ever had! Their blueberry popcorn is to die for. Honestly, that flavour cannot be surpassed. So crispy and airy. Even if you don't like popcorn you might like this. They use mushroom kernels so it's definitely a different expriance. I think I will order some online. I just wish their shipping wasn't so pricey. read more

Craig and his assistant are so welcoming! Even topped off our tub with some extra popcorn because we dug into our tub before we left the store. Tub refills are $1. Blueberry popcorn is a MUST buy! read more

While Chicago may have Garrett's, Bar Harbor has it's own gourmet popcorn mecca, and one couldn't ask for a friendlier staff to match the attention and care they take towards their daily batches of popcorn made with local flavors. Samples are encouraged and mixing is allowed when assembling the perfect bag or bucket of these fluffy crispy clouds of bliss coated with fresh bits of Maine blueberries, a decadent glaze of local maple syrup, or dusting of Vermont Cabot white cheddar. Traditional flavors such as caramel and their take on a salty/sweet kettle corn are also available. A perfect snack while going on a casual stroll along the Shore Path or a brisk hike in Acadia National Park, they also make the perfect edible souvenir to friends and family when heading home. To miss a stop here would be complete and utter poppycock. read more

Can't wait to go back! Ask for it Chicago style if you like salty and sweet! The white cheddar over the caramel is finger looking good! Owner is super nice and friendly too. read more
