Our Story

Abe's Gourmet Popcorn Shop is in Belleville IL in the corner of the Lincoln Theatre building.  Having run the Lincoln since 1980 we have lots of popcorn experience.  For many years we heard our customers at the Lincoln Theatre comment that we have the best popcorn at the Lincoln Theatre in Belleville IL. In fact, many just stop by to pick up popcorn from the concession.  In 2010 we decided to expand into gourmet popcorn flavors while doing some other remodeling and our popcorn store was born in 2011. 

Initially we thought of gourmet flavors like Caramel popcorns and Cheddar popcorns. We even added savories like Dill Pickle popcorn over time and other snack items like popcorn cakes.  Yes, your heard right Popcorn Cakes.  We do small size cakes we call popcorn treats. We are always creating and trying new flavors and combinations of gourmet popcorn flavors.

Abe's honestly has the best popcorn because we use the best ingredients.  It starts with locally sourced GMO free popcorn kernels from Ella and Ollie Popcorn, coconut oil, real vanilla, sugar, and premium chocolates.  At Abe's we make our gourmet popcorns in small batches with extra care.  Our caramel corn recipe was created through collaborating with several of our friends until we finally had a caramel popcorn that explodes with flavor and finishes big and buttery.

At Abe's Gourmet Popcorn we love to customize orders to make your party or event special.  We can help you with popcorn snacks for home or fill up your popcorn bar at weddings.  With our vast selection of popcorn flavors and colors we can complement your event with your wedding or team colors.  For larger orders we can even customize labels for your gourmet popcorn bags.  Gourmet popcorn is a tasty snack that will surprise and delight your guests especially when it is themed for your event.  We have even customized some popcorns specifically for customers to sell in their restaurants or bars. 

Abe's Gourmet Popcorn Shop is part of Lincoln Theatre Inc. a family-owned business.  Abe's Gourmet popcorn store is Located at 101 E. Main St, Belleville IL on the sweetest corner in Belleville IL.  Our popcorn is also available at select retailers and shops in the metro east area.
