Kernel Popcorn Factory

Kernel Popcorn’s is a must… been coming here for ages. I have never had a cheese popcorn finer than the Double Cheddar… ordered a bunch for Christmas, and it went over really well. If you’re in The Dells, be sure to go here. If you’re looking to order gourmet popcorn, look no further.

Fresh and fantastic tasting popcorn, especially the cheese! The owner is incredibly personal and takes well deserved pride in his shop and creations. I didn’t get to meet his co-​owner (wife), but he certainly gave her high praise as well. Individuals are encouraged to try anything and everything that sounds good to you. They are always experimenting with new flavor combinations, offer seasonal flavors, and have shipping available. I am so happy we stopped by!

First found this treasure 4 years ago while on a getaway with my husband. From the moment we walked in we were amazed as to all of the different flavors of popcorn!!! On top of that Eric, who is the owner of this wonderful establishment insisted that we sample as many flavors as we wanted.
After sampling many different flavors we bought 3 tins (2 for ourselves and 1 for a friend who’s a bit of a popcorn snob). Our friends were just as amazed as to the quality and flavors of the popcorn and now are customers as well. We have ordered over the phone and online ever since.
Even more amazing is that we just went there again today, first time back in person in about 2 years and Eric came from around the counter to greet us with open arms asking where and how we have been!!! We talked about our families and got another 2 tins of popcorn. Not just great popcorn, but, a great man who really has an amazing memory and genuinely appreciates his customers. Not many businesses have that personnel touch anymore. Anyone who reads this must check this place out, you will NOT be disappointed!

Nicest owner I’ve met, he let me and my cousins try whatever flavor we wanted. We settled on two half-​and-​half bags. Cousin got salt n vinegar mixed with chili mango lime. I got tuxedo (chocolate drizzled popcorn) mixed with white cheddar.
I can honestly say that the popcorn made with real Wisconsin white cheddar was the best I have had in my entire life. And the tuxedo popcorn was also the best sweet popcorn I’ve ever had.
The mix of these two together, though, were absolutely amazing. Sweet n savory come together.
I really wish I could give this place more than 5 stars because it really is the best popcorn I’ve ever had. You can guarantee that I will be taking advantage of their offer to ship to anywhere in the world.
Thank you so much

The popcorn is delicious and the staff is extremely friendly! Definitely worth a stop.

This place was great, when we first walked in the owner handed us a scoopful of double Wisconsin cheese popcorn (which was amazing), he also let us try whatever popcorn he had for sale, he also let us taste test what he was working on and wanted our honest opinion on it! We brought a tin of popcorn it was the best popcorn I have ever tasted!!! Great customer service and great prices!!!

Not only was I pleased with the quality and selection of popcorn, I was equally as pleased with the service! I had previously gone to another retailer that same day and purchased popcorn but then I stumbled upon this place and still purchased from here because of the warm reception and vast selection. I will also be going online to do more business with them.

Popcorn lovers unite!
Seriously, I could (and sometimes do) eat popcorn as a meal. If this is you… don’t hesitate, stop at Kernel Popcorn Factory! You will be in awe of all the flavor choices! Staff is very friendly and will let you sample. Absolutely delicious. The popcorn won’t last long!

The Chili Cheese Gunpowder Extreme Popcorn is something that every person on this planet should try. It’s amazing!!! If you are passing through or vacationing in the Wisconsin Dells, make sure you stop by for a friendly introduction to an amazing world of flavors and a savory variety of filling meals, drsserts, and snacks, put together by popcorn.

Great popcorn great flavors. The owner now that is a salesman. I just came in to see the popcorn but walked out with a huge bag of popcorn. They are great people with great popcorn and they let you sample anything you want.

Eric was more than awesome! He made sure we got to sample the many flavors we wanted to try! We are going to stop here on the way home every time we go to the dells now! My boyfriend who hates popcorn and didn’t want to come inside with me loved all the flavors he tried!

The family and I stopped at this little shop. I loved it! The owner was so friendly and great with the kids. He was more than willing to let them try any different kind– and believe me, I think it was every kind in the place. Nice to see service like that nowadays. We bought 3 different kinds, and I am going to order some more online for gifts. A must stop when your in the Dells.

The Salt and Vinegar popcorn is so addictive! I am sold on this place!

Don’t you love it when you stumble upon something awesome?
That’s what I did! After playing a couple rounds of mini golf at Pirate Cove, I visited the shops down the hill. And low and behold, at the end of the strip was Kernel Popcorn!
Two things you must know about the shop:
1.) It has delightful service! And an added bonus: you get to sample any of the flavors you want! It totally helped with our decision to pass or purchase… which if you’re curious, we bought 3 bags!
2.) The flavors are incredibly unique and super flavorful. Savory, sweet, spicy… this place has it all!
Overall, i really liked this small shop and will visit again if I’m in the area!

A must stop for me when I’m in the Dells. Too many to count flavors. The owner is more than happy to let you try whichever flavor your heart desired. My favorite is the rainbow candied popcorn!
They also sold snow cones for $ 1 – 2. Priced better than anywhere else. The nicest owner you’ll ever come across. He even gave us tips regarding the attractions in the area for kids. I heart this place.

Whether heading East or West, pull your car over, do yourself a favor and stop here for some really great and tasty popcorn!
Thanks to Unilocal and my Unilocal friend, Jason I, we had this place bookmarked to try.
What a find! Within seconds of entering the door, J and I were greeted by Eric, the owner who had a scoop in his hand of the double Wisconsin cheese flavored popcorn ready to put into our hands.
Very good! J asked if the die hard Chicagoan Garrett’s fan liked and Eric said a lot of them have crossed over which I can believe.
Perhaps a man vs food episode with Adam Richman eating a ginormous pop corn ball and someone eating a Garrett’s one could be on the horizon. Seriously, it would be a tight race!
Eric is so gracious and so enjoyable to talk to! We told him about Unilocal and promised to spread the word which we will gladly do.
Popcorn is fresh, flavorful and the choices are many! We had a hard time deciding, but finally ended up with the Baked Potato and Root Beer Float which tastes like an actual float.
It was a toss up between the double cheddar and the Chili Cheese Gunpowder Extreme
Tons of options. Store is clean. Eric and his son are so personable and run an excellent family business!
They ship all over. The farthest so far to Afghanistan for some of the troops!
Love this place! I hope to be able to get back to try more of the flavors since there are so many and I’m sure many more flavors in the works!
Don’t miss out!
