Popcorn Fharmacy

I have driven by this place for a while now and finally wanted to try it. When I walked in it was clean, and the lady that was there greated me right away. I got the caramel with peanuts, she just pulled a small bag out of a large tin on the floor. The store did not look or smell like they make the popcorn at that location. I got the feeling that just get pre-​popcorn and just package it. When I tried the popcorn, I just bought it tasted stale. I have bought better caramel popcorn at the big box stores. Disappointed, I was looking forward to eating fresh caramel popcorn.

The popcorn flavor here is good and they have a large selection. As far as I know it’s the only place that focuses on popcorn in the metro so it doesn’t have much competition. However, it is slightly stale. All the flavors are sitting out in large cans and it is hard to tell how long it’s been sitting there. The germ freak in me is a little grossed out while watching them scoop out popcorn with a scoop that’s sits out on the counter.
However, the negative part of this review is actually that I checked in here to redeem the free bag if popcorn offer, which I received. However, the owner refused to honor it, dating that it was for the night they posted the offer only and that they don’t know how to turn it off. It seems to me that they could honor a $ 3 bag of popcorn (especially since I bought others) or contact Unilocal to get it taken care of. Very low stars for poor customer service.

You know Popcorn Fharmacy has mastered the art of flavor infusion in popcorn when the result is something like the Every-​Flavor Beans of Hogwarts lore: I actually passed on the jalapeño and nacho cheese variant not because it was badly done, but because it so accurately reflected the flavor of ballpark nacho cheese in a bag that it actually didn’t taste that great.
Fortunately, the vast majority of the popcorn has very realistic flavoring and is extremely tasty to boot. Tremendous variety, friendly staff, and the ability to try a few flavors means you’ll be sure to leave with something excellent. And as a bonus, since the «sample» versions you’ll try are going to be a little stale just by virtue of the fact that they’re exposed to air for more time, you can be confident that whatever you try will be even better when you get after it at home. I speak from bacon cheddar, jalapeño and white chocolate* experience.
I suspect they’ll become a Christmas tradition, because nothing was better as a child than digging into the three-​flavored popcorn tin with the family and watching as two thirds of the tin (the cheese flavored and caramel flavored) were devoured like ravenous wolves while the third tin with the standard buttered popcorn was completely ignored until next Christmas, when it was thrown out so the whole thing could be refilled. Popcorn Fharmacy’s products replicate the experience perfectly, except all three sections are being attacked with equal gusto now. And I wouldn’t even start this review until I was away from home because I’m getting hungrier and hungrier as I type.
Go. Enjoy.
* Not all together, fortunately.

This is a perfect example of one of those businesses you drive by all the time but for some reason never have visited. Went for the first time last night. Blown away, one of the staff of any retail place I have ever been to in OKC. Incredible selection of great fresh popcorn flavors. I polished off the bag I got instantly.

Popcorn Fharmacy has been in business in Oklahoma City for 20 years, and they’ve got that deal on LOCK! When you go in, you’ll probably be struck by how small it is, but that’s because you’re not seeing a separate area, larger than their retail space, where they actually pop and flavor the corn daily. Can you picture the thing that they use for bingo, the big hopper that the bingo caller uses to keep the balls moving? Now, can you picture that, about 400 times larger? That’s what they use to make sure that each and every delicious bite of popcorn is perfectly coated with the flavor of your choice. It’s pretty cool, and it makes some amazing popcorn!
This is one of the best places in town to get prepared for the holidays: Send popcorn as a gift to clients, kid’s teachers, customers or neighbors. Take some to parties as hostess gifts, and keep some for yourself to have on hand at parties. Select from dozens of flavors and build a bin with three different choices. It also occurred to me that this makes a great gift to take to parties, especially for friends who don’t drink.
