EC Pop's has every popcorn flavor you could imagine and all are unique and make for a tasty (be careful, addictive) delightful snack! The store interior is so apropos for a "popcorn/ candy/snack" shop! The place is cute, bright, and colorful with a fun, upbeat vibe! And the personnel are absolutely lovable - kind, welcoming, knowledgeable about the ware, cheerful, generous, and easy-going! Today was sampler day! I discovered so many popcorn flavors unique to EC POPS that I hadn't known of before! This place has great popcorn options and what too-cute (it's giving souvenir) shopping bags you receive at checkout! Wha is a real delight to visit!

Pretty good tourist place--and lots of good popcorn! (Too corny? Yeah I know.)…read more Been here a few times; I go here specifically for the fresh popped popcorn (cinnamon bun and sea salt caramel) plus the sodas (apple, grape, root beer, etc.). There's a lot of other things as well, including Baltimore/Maryland merch. But the popcorn and soda is what I go there for. Old Ellicott City, btw, is great for walking around and seeing the sights. It's a pleasant afternoon trip on the weekend.

We love the mission that Jake's supports and the staff is extremely helpful. It is a little on the pricey side, but that is to be expected for the area and the money goes to a good cause.

They like popcorn way more than I do. It was freshly popped and smelled good so I took a handful. OMGGGGG get in my belly! I couldn't keep my hand out of the bag. There was the right amount of saltiness with some sweet and bits of sweet that seem to have crystallized. I was in love. The only way I could get it was to go to Leesburg, VA for it? I looked in the store for kettlecorn. Eww.. one popular brand had slightly burned the batch I bought. Popped Republic (food truck) has a good thing that keeps me going back, but Uncle Dave's? Kettlecorn heaven! I was grumbling about the tolls, but a freshly popped bag of kettlecorn (no additional flavors for me) was worth my afternoon trip. *cheese*

This is the most amazing Popcorn I have ever eaten. I was at an event on Saturday, March 19th and…read morethe hostess had these bags of popcorn as parting gifts for persons attending the event. She stated that it was made by one of the attendees at the event. Before I departed I opened my bag to try it. One bite in, I was mesmerized, the taste is FANTASTIC. I said to to the hostess this is amazing, where does she sell this stuff? I ate the whole bag in less than 5 minutes, it was finger licking good. Once you taste it you cannot put it down. The hostess also told me that she also makes ice cream, cant wait to taste it, I know it is going to be GREAT. These products are made from family recipes, so they passed the family litmus test. The Popcorn is called BOSS 'Gourmet' Popcorn and it is made by Valerie Ross, her company is located in Montgomery Village, MD.

Plenty of parking & such fabulous decor. There's retail space, as well as a seating area where you can enjoy your treats. Very clean & even the bathroom decor is adorable. They have paid attention to every single detail in this space. All employees that we encountered were terrific. They are very helpful & knowledgeable of their menus/offerings. Even ordering through the website is super easy. They are very attentive & are wonderful at communication. Obviously, they specialize in tasty gourmet popcorn. There's even a sample area where you can try some flavors. The flavor options are endless... like you will be overwhelmed trying to pick. There is a sampler option so you can try a little of every flavor. They have little Sundae Cups & varied party tray sizes that would be such a lovely hostess gift or a special something to add to a buffet style gathering. They would even be such a wonderful dessert to take to a gathering. Gourmet flavors & something unique that all will enjoy together. There are tons of other treats throughout to purchase as well: pretzels, donuts, biscotti, dips, various condiments... the list goes on. Anything would make such a good gift for any occasion. I have been bulk ordering from Emma's for years! I set up a teacher appreciation popcorn bar every May for my school. The staff get very excited as they absolutely love the flavor combos & the quality of the popcorn is superior. It's great to buy it in bulk & to be able to have it fit in any theme/display you have planned (I use large planters & sand shovels as scoops). This is the first time I have stepped foot in the actual retail space after ordering from them for over 10+ years. I am so glad I picked up the order this year & was able to see the retail space. If you need a special treat for any occasion or event, get Emma's! If you aren't close by, order through the website. The quality & prices are very reasonable. Just a terrific place to get some fabulous treats. The talent & skills of those making these treats truly shines through in their final products. Such a unique & wonderful place!!

We stopped into EC Pops right before leaving Baltimore because we wanted to grab a few souvenirs…read moreand honestly, this ended up being one of the most fun stops of the trip. I immediately grabbed one of the Baltimore "There's more than m*rder here" sweatshirts and I am obsessed. They also had great crewneck sweatshirts for $15, plus tons of other shirts and gifts. If you're into Old Bay, Baltimore pride, or hyper-specific local humor, this place is your playground. The selection is wild in a good way. Stickers, shirts, hats, gifts you didn't know you needed, and things you definitely wouldn't think of unless you were standing there laughing at them. It's one of those stores where you keep saying, "Oh my god, look at THIS." We went upstairs and noticed a random stuffed squirrel on the floor and kind of laughed it off... until a few minutes later when we learned why. We were greeted by the owner's massive, incredibly friendly Great Dane, who was absolutely beautiful and fully committed to getting attention and love from everyone. We also ended up chatting with the owner about the Edgar Allan Poe duck, which of course we both had to buy. He hand-designed it, it's made in the U.S., and it's exactly the kind of weird-perfect Baltimore souvenir you hope to find but usually don't. EC Pops is fun, quirky, local, and full of personality just like Baltimore itself. Awesome merch, genuinely friendly vibes, surprise dog encounters, and souvenirs that actually feel special instead of generic.
