I dunno how I've lived in NYC all my life without buying Dave Blackstone's popcorn until last fall,…read morebut it's been a game-changer - every flavor we've tried is delicious (my own go-to is the New York Mix, the single best cheese-and-caramel combo I've ever had), and he's ruined every single other kind of popcorn for me, from stovetop to microwave to air-popped to movie theater. He's also a terrific guy and fun to talk to... but man is he good at what he does. His popcorn is great for any day of the year, but if anyone is catching up on nominated movies or having an Oscar party this month, this is who you wanna call.

Honestly the best popcorn I've ever had in my life. Have no complaints whatsoever. Will continue to go here. New chocolate flavor is delicious. Would highly recommend if you're on UWS.

The store is tucked in to a little industrial park and easy to miss. There are no fancy cabinets or decorations, just popcorn. They are happy to give a sample of any of the popcorns before ordering. I walked in and one of the workers filled my popcorn bag once I ordered it. The prices are a bit high, but I love the concept of employing people who otherwise might not have a job. The popcorn is delicious! My favorite is Cookies and Cream, which has chunks of Oreos in every bite. They happily ship orders and they do fund raising gigs. Definitely worth a visit!

Such nice people! Terry & Barb are the brains behind this fantastic operation - and not only are…read morethey a dynamic duo but they're husband/wife! It was my first time in the store and I was really looking forward to the pOnut (popcorn donut) but they were really accommodating & willing to answer any question about their flavors or process. They even have some ready for samples! Though the shop space is limited, you'll still need to brace yourself for the tons of popcorn they have on display (and the many sizes!). I used my Yelp check-in deal to get a free teaser bag from a display rack. They also have flavors that are phasing out, in the back, on a clearance shelf. But the pièce de résistance... the reason I made the trip out: the pOnut! Right next to the mega bags of popcorn is a display for their containers of pOnuts, bunches of popcorn glazed together with sprinkles on top. A fraction of the calories of a real donut and 100% more popcorn! It tasted great and with the current deal, it was only $1. And walked out with more bags of popcorn too...

The popcorn was perfectly popped and so flavor forward. I even up getting the kettle corn and my god it's so good. Savory and sweet- not to mention the small bag is so big! (worth the $10 since it can be shared with 2-3 people) Again not sure if this is the same ny popcorn truck but assuming it is, I recommend it!

FYI: prices do range on the high side because items here are artisan and not mass-produced...4 chocolates bars items totaled up to about $50ish...again this aren't any old chocolates and this ain't any old shop!
