The “Security Sweet Shop” was founded in 1921 by a Greek immigrant named Peter George Poulos.  Peter soon handed off the operations to his son George, who renamed the confectionery “Margie’s Candies” in honor of his wife, whom he met at the store during his youth.  Margie managed the shop during the Second World War while George was serving in the armed forces, and she ultimately assumed full control in 1954 after George passed away from an ulcer.  A widow for the next four decades, Margie continued to run the legendary local restaurant and candy shop until her death in 1995, at which point her son Peter assumed full control of the business.  Al Capone is said to have been a frequent patron, although Margie’s "fab" moment arrived in 1965 when the Beatles dropped in with five girls after a concert at Comiskey Park and ordered several six-scoop “Atomic Sundaes.”  Since then, the interior has been abundantly adorned with Beatles memorabilia, which complements the original Tiffany lamps, the marble soda fountain, and the old-fashioned booths with the miniature juke boxes.  (by the way, the rolling stones have been here too.)  In 2005, Margie’s son Peter opened a second location in the North Center neighborhood.
