Cantigny Park and the area is a great place to go for a ice walk in nature, visit an ornate mansion, and learn about military history. It’s got to be one of the top places to visit in the Chicago west suburbs.

The tanks outside were incredible to get up close to. My husband and son are huge military buffs and were impressed to see the tanks on display outside on the grounds. I myself tagged along but was not bored at all looking at the tanks. Inside the museum are wonderful displays depicting all phases of wars that the 1st was involved in. The grounds had wonderful gardens to wander through. We all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

The Little Popcorn Store

Reviewed By 866TaylorB - Chicago, United States

I wonder if football legend Red Grange, the most famous resident of Wheaton, Illinois, ever visited the Little Popcorn Store. Nearing its 100th anniversary, the Little Popcorn Store is a local treasure, perhaps the world's smallest store of any kind. Located at 111 West Front Street, at Main Street, in downtown Wheaton, one of Chicago's western suburbs, it is only 49 inches wide by 60 feet long. It is like walking into a Norman Rockwell painting with popcorn freshly popped and candy lining the walls. The late owner Bill Wakefield, who ran the business for more than 40 years before passing away in 2019, pointed out that what separates his popcorn from others is the use of white corn, which is sweeter, smaller and less tough than yellow corn. Also, it is lighter and doesn't need butter. Just add vegetable oil and a light amount of salt. But only one flavor, no caramel or cheese. Candy lovers can choose from gummis, candy corn, candy dots, chocolate covered marshmallows, Reece's pumpkins, Mary Janes, Necco's wafers, salter pumpkin seeds, peppermint, penny candy, root beer barrels and many others. Also on sale are posters, ornaments, note cards and other artwork. The Little Popcorn Store is open from 10 to 9 Monday through Saturay and from noon to 5 on Sunday.
