Step back in time and snack like a legend at Cowabunga Concession Stand!
We’re Bridgeport’s neighborhood snack shop with a twist – part old-school movie theater, part world tour, and all about fun.
When you walk in, the first thing you’ll see (and smell) is our fresh popcorn popping every 30 minutes – just like the classic theaters. But that’s only the beginning. Our gelato game is strong, with new flavors every week that keep you coming back to see what’s next.
What really makes Cowabunga Concession Stand special is our curated lineup of snacks from around the globe. From sweet to salty, crunchy to chewy, we hunt down unique flavors and treats you can’t find at your average corner store.
We designed this space as more than just a snack stop – it’s a nostalgic hangout spot where neighbors, kids, and families come to kick back, grab a treat, and feel like a kid again.
So whether you’re in the mood for a scoop of gelato, a bag of hot buttery popcorn, or an adventurous snack from the other side of the world, Cowabunga Concession Stand is your spot.
Come for the snacks, stay for the vibe – Cowabunga, dude!
History
Established in 2025.
Cowabunga Concession Stand – a love letter to snacks and old‑school movie theater vibes.
We pop popcorn fresh every 30 minutes (because soggy popcorn is a crime), rotate gelato flavors every week (commitment issues), and pack our shelves with weird, wonderful treats from around the world.
You never know what you’ll find. Maybe it’s spicy chips from Thailand, a Japanese soda that tastes like childhood, or just the perfect scoop of gelato on a hot day. Whatever it is, you’ll leave with a smile—and probably sticky fingers.
Mostly though, Cowabunga Concession Stand is about fun. For kids. For grown‑ups who are still kids at heart. For anyone who wants to grab a snack, hang out, and stumble into the coolest little snack shop in town.
Stop in, try something new, and remember: life’s too short for boring snacks.
Meet the Business Owner: Shawn R.
Meet Shawn – the guy who turned “Cowabunga!” into a calling.
Shawn has always believed that food should be fun. After years in kitchens and on food trucks, he rolled into Bridgeport and opened Cowabunga Pizza Pies, a 90s‑themed slice shop that quickly became a neighborhood favorite.
But one pizza place wasn’t enough. Shawn wanted a spot where popcorn popped nonstop, gelato flavors changed every week, and the shelves were full of wild snacks from all over the world. So he built it: Cowabunga Concession Stand.
Now, between spinning dough and stocking snacks, Shawn spends his time dreaming up new ways to make Bridgeport a little more fun—and a lot more delicious. If it makes you smile, feel like a kid again, or say “Dude, that’s awesome,” then it’s exactly what he was going for.
