Everybody has someone in their solar system that is impossible to find a Christmas gift for. Well there’s a shop here in Peoria that has the answer for this unshoppable present person: Young’s Popcorn Heaven!
I don’t know anyone who doesn’t like popcorn and as you’ll soon see, there’s every kind of popcorn you can imagine at this heavenly popcorn palace! And if for some reason this person doesn’t like popcorn, there’s other sweet treats for sale in here.
Ho, ho and ho…let’s go!
Here we are at Young’s Popcorn Heaven on W. Lake Street. I first blogged about this place back in 2015 when it opened up in the old Egg Roll Express location off of Sterling.
They moved here a few years ago and my last post was back in October of 2020. I’m overdue for a return visit, so let’s go in and check out Young’s Popcorn Heaven!
It’s looking nice in here and check out the festive decorations!
Here’s a caricature of the owners, Greg and JoAnne. This is a nice drawing of the two of them as you can tell by…
This photo of them in the shop I took from my last visit in there the other day! Great to see both of them again and they told me to feel free to wander around the shop and take photos which was great to hear, because this is what I do!
Let’s look around and start snapping photos of Young’s Popcorn Heaven!
As you can see from the menus, this place has a huge selection of different styles of popcorn.
And here some of the festive tins that it is served up in for this holiday season!
Here’s a photo of some of the different bags of popcorn you can buy in here. These are perfect stocking stuffers for this Xmas season!
The popcorn is made fresh daily in here and here’s a photo of the production area in the back of the building.
The popcorn also serves as a nice shield from nosy photographers like myself as you can see here!
I told you there was also sweet treats available here and there’s a whole seperate candy store inside of here called, Cat & Ella’s Candy Cafe.
Let’s go in and take a look at this sweet spot in Young’s Popcorn Heaven.
Wow, this spot is loaded with candy selections! It reminds me of the old penny candy stores!
And speaking of sweet treats, check out the ice cream cooler over here!
If you can’t wait to eat your popcorn or sweet treats till you get home, there’s some nice and comfortable dining areas right here in the store!
And there’s also non-edible gift selections of gifts on sale in here. Stop in and do your holiday shopping locally here at Young’s Popcorn Heaven!
