Carolina Kernels

Birthday girl’s and one of her friend’s favorite flavor was lemon pound cake, the other friends’ and mine was white cheddar, my husband’s was vanilla! Discovered this place when searching for gourmet popcorn for my girl’s birthday slumber party movie time snack. I couldn’t even find many places to get gourmet popcorn but this one was the clear option for good variety of flavors. Delicious too!! And excellent service, friendly, kind and personable. We’ll definitely be back

Black Owned Business with very Godly people. Located off North Main close to downtown Columbia. All types of popcorn flavors. I have sampled a few, however I stick to Better Butter and Carmel. Best popcorn in Columbia.

Our eldest grandson recently committed to play baseball while attending CIU formerly Columbia Bible College. We’re unfamiliar with the area; but once I stumbled across your boutique shop I knew all was right in the world! Popcorn, pralines, salty & sweet … oh my! Looking forward to meeting y’all! #GoRams

You have to try Carolina Kernels!! The popcorn is fresh and delicious. :- Make sure that you try the mango slush.

A Tik Tok by KenWalkerShow brought me here, and I was not disappointed. There were way more flavors than what was in the video, so that was a bit overwhelming. However, they have great customer service and patience. They let me sample the flavors I was interested in before I bought them, which was extremely helpful. My favorite flavors were Banana, Cherry, Toffee Praline, Buffalo Blue Cheese, and Chicago Mix. I bought them all too! You can even mix flavors. My only negative critique was that they did not have many of the premium flavors in stock and could not tell when they would restock.

Delicious caramel popcorn! Good butter flavor. The caramel is more sticky than gooey; and nice crispiness. In the large I got I had 0 zero old maids! The coverage of the caramel on the corn is top-notch - the popcorn is almost entirely covered. Then to top it off, the people who work there are SO nice! The owner was saying she liked Garretts popcorn, and one time she ordered it but it never arrived...so she learned to make her own.

Love the people, atmosphere and the Popcorn!! Caramel is my Go to but the Cheesy Buffalo Wing is where it's at!

Great flavor... lots of variations. pecan caramel was delicious... cheesy was ok. Must be really good cause lots of flavors were out that day... Great popcorn

This place literally has the best popcorn ever! There are so many flavors! And the customer service is absolutely fantastic!

This place is fantastic, all sort of favors, always delicious. Best gourmet popcorn I’ve ever tried. Great service as well. Highly recommendable.
