Absolutely loved our stop at Christoff’s Pretzel and Popcorn Stop in Helen, GA! The pretzel with beer cheese and mustard was hands down the best I’ve ever had. It was warm, soft, and full of flavor. We also picked up some Bavarian popcorn to go, which was delicious. The staff greeted us with a smile and were so kind, even offering samples of a few popcorn flavors before we chose. I actually had to go back in just to snap a photo of the last pretzel left because we devoured ours before I even thought to take one! If you’re in Helen, this shop is a must-visit. Friendly service, incredible snacks. I promise you won’t be disappointed!

Popcorn lovers heaven! Ooh yum... You don't want to miss stopping in on this fabulous place where this lady who moved to Helen from Decatur, Ga makes this incredible caramel corn. We dropped in just as this lady was preparing a vat of caramel- smothered pop corn and she was mixing in pretzels and pecans and peanuts into a big pot and putting it in the oven. After it comes out of the oven, she drizzles it with chocolate just enough to make a scrumptious bite, then bags it up and labels it Deluxe Mix. While we were there, we saw the cheese popcorn mixed with caramel corn selling like hot cakes. Go in and try some samples. Be sure to try the Spicy Mix. We took home a bag of the Deluxe and it's already gone..scrumdillyicious!! Please note that she got a 100% on her health inspection posted on the wall. Do you know how hard it is to get a flat out one hundred percent? It's quite rare. You go girl, that means you're doing everything right.

Stopped in there while vacationing in Helen, GA. Owners were very friendly and personable. Popcorn was delicious. I will go back if I'm in the area again and buy more popcorn. I highly recommend this place. They do have samples to taste before you buy.

BEST place in town. Cold beer. Best pretzels. And the most entertaining place to watch tubers and fishermen on the water.

Randomly popped in bc I saw the coffee sign...left with delicious popcorn and a tasty coffee. My husband and I didn't eat it on the way home like we planned, just opened it now and had to make the review because the popcorn is so good.

Coffee Shop No. 478 Christoff’s Caramel Corn & Coffee Helen, GA March 11, 2025
Christoff’s caramel corn is gourmet and absolutely top notch. I went into the shop expecting caramel corn you might get at a carnival; mediocre at best. I can’t explain in words how absolutely wrong I was. There were several flavors to choose from and I think the owner and woman at the register were trying to make sure I tasted every single one of them. This turned out to be a major problem for me because I went into the shop to order one cortado. By the way, the owner makes a fabulous cortado! Back to the caramel corn…I couldn’t decided what flavor to bring home; so I purchased three flavors. The Mexican Hot Chocolate was my favorite.
The customer service and cortado I received was the best on my trip to Georgia. The ladies in the shop made me feel like I was their neighbor or friend; a wonderful experience.
Enjoying life one cortado at a time!

Decided to check this place out in hopes of a nice snack and quick drink. Was pleasantly surprised by the popcorn and all of the unique flavors. The beer selection is small, however I found a cider that is now my new favorite. The owner was so kind and welcoming and made my birthday a little sweeter 💕 I'm so excited to come back and grab even more popcorn! And the river view from the deck was very peaceful and beautiful!

It had a sign saying they'd be back in 15 minutes but we waited over 15 minutes because we wanted to enjoy our drinks on the deck (the staff were inside looking at us, we saw you LOL). When they finally opened, we got our drinks - which were delicious - but the deck was closed due to weather conditions (bummer). I believe the staff could've put the exact hour they were going to open to avoid the annoyance... and that the deck was closed (I guess that's why people choose that place... the drinks are fine but nothing to wait for more than 15 minutes. It was OK, just pay attention to details

Eager to help yet not pushy. The samples they provide would be better served by calling them ‘starter kits’ because once you taste their popcorn you will want it! Little pricey but rather help small business than giant ones.
