Where Every Treat Feels Like Home

Welcome to Abe’s Carmelcorn Shoppe — a cozy, welcoming staple in the heart of downtown Lincoln, Illinois. Our story began in the 1950s, when this little shop first became known for its handcrafted caramel corn and classic candies. In 1983, we officially became Abe’s, carrying forward a tradition that locals and travelers along historic Route 66 have loved for generations.
For decades, Abe’s has been a place where sweet memories are made. From freshly popped caramel corn to nostalgic treats and unique gifts, every visit feels like stepping into a warm, familiar tradition. Whether you’re a longtime customer or discovering us for the first time, we’re honored to share a piece of Lincoln’s history — one delicious bite at a time.

Abe’s Carmelcorn Shoppe is proudly owned by Michael Simonson, who is carrying forward the tradition of handcrafted caramel corn with the help of his daughter, Anastin. With a warm welcome from the Lincoln community and longtime Abe’s customers, Michael is committed to keeping the shop’s beloved legacy alive.
Together, they’re “hopping and popping” to bring sweet memories — and plenty of caramel corn — into every season.












We love our customers, so feel free to visit during normal business hours.
