I sat with the co-founder of Cobb's Popcorn, Erin Cobb, to ask the questions that you're too shy to broach in mixed company, like, "What makes popcorn gourmet?" His response: "And so what I would say makes it gourmet is incredible packaging, the time-tested process, using high-quality ingredients, and making it the right way. There are a lot of shortcuts, and we don't use them. In fact, our motto is no shortcuts ever."

My fav Cobb's authentic flavor is...
A. Vanilla Salted Caramel
B. Brown Butter and Sea Salt
C. Cheddar Cheese
D. Signature Salt Blend
You can always visit the shop by noting the buttery scent wafting through the air on Western Avenue. Or, follow Erin's advice, "Cobb's Gourmet Popcorn is the hidden gem of Pike Place Market, hidden on Western Avenue. Basically, if you look at the big Pike Place (Public Market Center) sign, it's right behind it all the way down ⬇ six floors on the street below. It's a pink popcorn shop. You can't miss it!"
Cobb's Popcorn co-founders (Rowan and Erin) source exceptional ingredients (some made from scratch) to "....melt better butter, pop better kernels and coat exotic flavors like Brown Butter, Vanilla Salted Caramel and Seattle Kettle Corn." Arthur invited us to stroll behind the counter to see where the magic happens... #nofilter
Tiny, small-batch specialty popcorn, anyone?! 🫠 I couldn't resist the hand-scooped authentic cheddar cheese flavor with a touch of milk, salt, and cream to taste.
