She gets very butt hurt if you don't buy anything after having the samples.

No thanks, but I can go to the other popcorn stores in town.

Now as I took inventory of what popcorn, snacks and other goodies were present, a very bubbly clerk Jennifer was there to treat me with samples and the history of the family owned shop.

I have been eating Topsy's popcorn for about 50 years; always getting a can at Christmas ever since…read moreI was little. Quality has gone down over the years but this year, the cheese popcorn had so many hard kernels it was difficult to eat. We shook the can and had to physically inspect the kernels ensuring we ate only the large ones to avoid the hard, break your teeth ones. Why didn't we return it to the store? We paid cash (and didn't take receipt) for the largest bag of cheese (around $27) the store is not super close, and it was very close to Christmas that we did not want to deal with. Oh, and I always send a can to out of town BFF; I won't be doing in the future. Sad that quality control is gone and that they sell expensive, inferior product. Anyway, I wanted to share so that you can make your own decision.

I love that they let you try as much popcorn as you want! There is a huge range of sweet, savory, traditional, and unique. I recommend getting the next size up from the one you originally think as the popcorn is delicious. The popcorn stays fresh for at least a week ( in our house), they said 2-3 weeks, but our bags are usually empty in a few days. The ice cream is also fantastic. Parking in downtown Parkville can be a challenge! There are some spots on the street, or a few blocks south just past the railroad tracks are large parking lots. My first time there, Miya was delightful. Yesterday the ladies were equally helpful.

I make a special trip to Topsy's when I am in the neighborhood. Okay, so maybe I intentionally drive the loooong way around to "accidentally" run into Topsy's. The popcorn is oh-so-good!! I love the cheese popcorn. I even love having orange fingers after its gone. It's a pleasant reminder of my yummy snack. I always get a small cheese popcorn and a regular popcorn from their popper. Buttered, of course. The staff is friendly and helpful. I always try to make pleasant conversation. I get worried because every time I have been in the store, there are no other customers. Please, please, please do not close down. I think they have been there for quite awhile so I am safe. PHEW!! Okay- here is the downside to this wonderful popcorn wonderland. YIKES! I hate to say this but sometimes the store does not appear to be very clean. I know it IS clean but it is an old, vacuous store and needs some upgrades. If it were upgraded, better lighting installed it might not look so unclean. Second downside is the price. The popcorn is expensive. I know you have to sell a large amounts of popcorn to have a storefront but still pricey. I've wanted to buy a tin or two but I get serious sticker shock when I see the prices. Overall, great store and DELISH!
