Garrett Popcorn Shops is an American chain of gourmet popcorn stores founded in 1949 in Chicago, Illinois. Today, it has shops in nine countries, corporate offices in Chicago, Singapore, and Tokyo, and an online store. The majority of its brick and mortar stores are still in Chicago, including shops on the Magnificent Mile and in the O'Hare International Airport. As such, it is often referenced as part of classic Chicago cuisine.

Garrett Popcorn Shops is a part of Garrett Brands, which also owns the Frango brand of chocolates.

History
