Better popcorn than Garrett imho. However sometimes employees don't POP totally fresh. Some bags have been very sweet :)

Stale! For the cost, it should have been fresh. I was excited about seeing the popcorn, but greatly disappointed. This was Sunday afternoon around 2:30. read more

Love the caramel corn here (aka popcorn!). 4 oz for $2.75. It is like eating Crunch and Munch but a million times better! The soft crunch is there, no residual kernel shrapnels to stick in your teeth and never feels way too sugary after a few bites. The butter toffee nuts, advertised at 50%, were a huge mistake! I nearly chipped a tooth when biting into these suckers. DON'T BUY them unless you are ready for eating sugar rocks. read more

I've had a preference for Nuts on Clark street over the others. I would always pick some up at union station. The service seemed more like a local mom and pop shop vs a big chain. The popcorn and nut items were always fresh. I recommend the carmel corn and the toffee pecans. Now that I living elsewhere, I'm glad to have access to this shop at O'Hare when I'm passing through. read more

I guess this is a big deal in Chicago. Never heard of the business until I was at O'hares. Pros: 1) Very convenient, located in the airport. Can grab a snack for your flight. 2) Huge selection. Plenty of popcorn and chocolate covered nuts to choose from. Cons: 1) Price, not cheap. You can spend some money there. 2) Place is very small, little room to maneuver. Especially when there is other customers there. Not sure what the big deal is about them? read more

Usually I walk on by past this shop but today is the day I gave it a try. I got a bag of the Butter Toffee Honey Toasted Cashews. Soooo yummy. It's a bit of a splurge but gourmet nuts usually are. Great souvenir if traveling to meet people. read more

I got a quick box of small butter popcorn in between flights. Later I read the box and realized they're known for their caramel popcorn. If I ever pass by the store again in the airport, I'll have to try what they're famous for. Their regular popcorn was good, cheap, and made a good snack throughout my trip. read more

Maria from Nuts on Clark was the absolute best!! So kind and such a joy!!! Thanks to her I will definitely be back!!

1. Ambiance: N/A - airport kiosk 2. Food: I had bought the Cheesecorn and Dark Chocolate Covered Almond. The Cheesecorn is basically popcorn steeped in salted butter. It is so good and creamy. It just melts in your mouth. Also, the Dark Chocolate Covered Almond was delicious and not too sweet. 3. Service: The service was friendly and quick. They have to be quick to service the customers since the customers were catching different flights. 4. Costs: My cheesecorn was $3.75 and the bag of candy covered nuts were 50% $4.75 . The price was reasonable to the portion that was provided. 5. Overall Experience: I had a great experience overall. When I'm in Chicago, I will be sure to try other candies and the sweet caramel popcorn. Side Notes: N/A read more

Went to Nuts on Clark in Chicago O'Hare airport today for a bottle of soda that cost $3.62. The woman at the register took $1.38 out of the register for my change but proceeded to hand me .38cents. I turned around and asked her how much the soda cost and explained that she was holding my dollar. She stood right in my face and lied to me stating she handed me the dollar. I told her to keep it and I would address it with the manager then she proceeds to hand me the $1 stating she forgot . Had this been a simple mistake it would have not been an issue but I get the impression she runs this scam on a regular basis. Buyer beware read more

For a pop up shop in an airport, it was everything I expected. Caramel popcorn tasted fresh and was very good.

Great quality popcorn- cheese, caramel, butter toffee, some with nuts, kettle corn and nuts themselves- most in chocolate. Great for travel and to bring home to the kids. read more

Perfect snack in between flights. There was no line and I had a small bag of cheese popcorn. It was intended to be a snack but it was filling and ended up being dinner. Haha. This was my first taste of Nuts on Clark and next time I think I will pick up a tin for gifts. You can purchase small, medium or large bags of freshly popped popcorn. I didn't get any nuts but they had tins of nuts and popcorn available for purchase that had the Chicago skyline on it. It would make a great gift. read more

Barely edible. Stale, mass produced caramel and cheese corn... I threw out over half of a 5 or 6 ounce bag. Even the butter toffee coated nuts were possibly some of the worst I've eaten. Always buy fresh. The plain popcorn is fresh, do yourself a favor and buy that. Service was friendly and quick. read more

Not impressed. I don't want to bash the place, but I won't be back. Service was below average. Bags ripped and they wouldn't replace them. Popcorn all over the place and no one cared. It all tastes fine, but it's not any better than the other popcorn vendors that have better service. Treatment means a lot. read more

I stopped in here twice on my layover for 20oz Mtn Dews. They run a little high but about what I expect at the airport. Staff was friendly and generally quick, but a few customers ahead of me really slowed down the flow on my second visit. I usually do not snack, so I did not opt for the popcorn -- the obvious specialty. There were plenty of other people here looking for exactly that, however, so maybe it is worth a try. read more

I walked down the E concourse and was hit with the yummy smell of butter popcorn. I usually stick to Garretts in Chicago but it smelled so good that I had to give it a try. It tasted like a bag of butter popcorn you would buy at the grocery store. Nothing special. It needed more salt. And it seemed to have a lot of "hard" kernels in it. I'm not talking about the hard kernels at the bottom. This were hard kernels that we're popped. I'll stick to Garretts. read more

This is for the people who have not yet been baptized into the cult of cheese and caramel popcorn. Get it. It only sounds weird until you try it. A small is more than sufficient for a personal snack or a non-nutritious meal, but if you're sharing, opt for the medium. Before they start scooping, ask them to go a little heavier on the cheese popcorn vs the caramel, and to shake it well. If the box doesn't close properly, that means you got extra. That's good, because you're going to eat this stuff and love it. I don't have a strong preference between Garrett and Nuts on Clark, but if you're in this part of O'Hare, this is what you're getting, so the debate is irrelevant. Fresher is better, but you have little control over when the corn got popped and how motivated the staff are, plus there's plenty of studies done on how humans will contentedly eat stale food if distracted, bored, or stressed. And you're in O'Hare, so at least one of those is true. read more

HOT DAMN!!!! Is all I can say!!!! This place is the best thing ever. I made sure to buy some on my way home. I bought the mix and the spicy. The spicy is pure crack and very spicy. I thought it would be like the flaming hots. To my surprise it was even hotter and more delicious. Everything in this place is delicious. I can't wait to come buy more! read more

Despite Nuts on Clark being more well-known for their popcorn, I've never tried it. But every time I'm flying out of O'Hare or Midway, I grab a bag labelled "Honey Butter Toffee Cashews #722", approximately 0.33lbs and 755 calories of scrumptious candy-coated cashews to devour on my flight home, kicking the crap out of the airline peanut baggies. These are most excellent nuts, and surprisingly do not appear to be available for purchase from nutsonclark.com; this is a good thing, as they would most definitely become a long-term health hazard for me if I could import them into San Diego at will. As other reviewers have noted, the airport locations of Nuts on Clark offer select items at a 50% discount. I've visited about a dozen times and noticed that this item specifically appears to always be 50% off, which makes them $3.61 per bag (including tax). read more

I had a layover at Chicago's international airport and was looking to munch on something before my flight. I was taken in by the scent of Auntie Anne's when I looked across and saw a big sign, "50% off chocolates and butter toffee nuts." Nam loves butter toffee nuts, so I walk over and start yelping this Nuts on Clark. Turns out, it's famous for popcorn! Who woulda thunk it? I follow everyone's suggestion for the mixed cheese and caramel corn. It's $4.50 for a 5oz bag (the smallest) so I get two to bring home. I munch a bit on the plane, and sadly for me, it's not hot. I love fresh hot popcorn. I wasn't wow'd at first bite, but it was delicious. I definitely endorse the cheese and caramel corn mix. Goes surprisingly well together! My first recipient was my mommy and she liked it so much, she finished the bag in the first day! The cashier told me that it would last for a week, but it's only been a couple days and my bag's already gotten quite stale. So beware of that. Yum! read more

Landed at O'Hare this afternoon and after a quick restroom break, I stopped at the closest "convenient" store I could find, but didn't spot the cashew caramel popcorn that Mom requested for amongst the travel-sized goodies, so I asked the Filipina (!) cashier/clerk if the store carried them. She said no, it didn't, but that I should check out "Nuts on Clark," which was nearby. So glad I was able to understand her-- Flora, I think that is your name... Salamat uli!! :) (That's "thank you, again!" in English.) The Nuts on Clark clerk was amiable and showed me the three nut varieties of caramel popcorn offered here: pecans, cashews, and almonds. I didn't bother to check the price differences for the nut variants, but I'm sure a combo of two or three could be had, but don't quote me on it! I think I may have splurged a bit by going for the max of two pounds, but it's nothing but it's rare for Mom to request for anything, so if it's cashew-caramel popcorn she wants, then I am happy to get them for her! Now, I just need to find the closest post office tomorrow morning, so that she may enjoy them while they're still fresh! read more

Nom. Nom Nom. All you really need to know is this... Get the largest bag of popcorn you can - and get the mix of the cheese and carmel corn. Salty, sweet perfection. A Chicago staple. Share at your own risk because you probably won't get the bag back. I'd write more, but I don't want to get popcorn dust all over my keyboard. read more

I used to think anyone would be an idiot to buy popcorn that costs $20+ for a bucket full, but call me an idiot and convert, their cheese and caramel popcorn rocks. Their cheese popcorn is REALLY cheesy and think they use good cheese to make their stuff. And their caramel popcorn is REALLY delicious and tastes 20x better than other random caramel popcorn you might find in stores. The secret is to buy their mixed combo - sounds weird to combine cheese and caramel popcorn together, but try it - it's awesome. Bottom line: I'm now one of those idiots that spend $20+ on popcorn.. and I'm proud of it. But make sure it's Nuts of Clark popcorn. read more

My husband recently went thru the O'Hare International Airport and said how good it smelled

Line... Slow... Very... Almost late for my flight. That being said, I skipped the legendary popcorn and went straight for the almonds. Those won me over. Definitely a good in-flight snack. Next time will try the cashews. read more

Every time I come though this airport I need to go to this little kiosk for the chocolate covered pecans...I'm telling you they are life changing! They have a kinds of other chocolate covered nuts and raisins too and all that but the pecans are all I want. The last time I was there I bought 3 bags, the lady asked me if I was buying them for gifts and I said "oh no they are all for me" haha They always seem to have all these discounts happening like it's always 50% off every time I'm there. Hey I'll take it! They sell popcorn too, caramel, cheese, butter, mix. Never had the popcorn there but people are always buying it like crazy. read more

I was connecting in Chicago on flight back to DC and saw this popcorn stand right as I got off the plane. I was hungry and I love popcorn, especially gourmet, so I thought I would stop by here for a snack. They have several popcorn flavors - cheese, butter, caramel, chocolate as well as nuts, and chocolates. I decided to go with the medium cheese popcorn. Once I got to my gate I pulled it out and had a few bites of it. It was very cheesy and fresh and I was happy with my decision. Fast forward 2 days, I pulled out the popcorn to share with my husband and it was stale. I was pretty disappointed that it was stale already after 2 days. It was even more annoying because I had also purchased some popcorn from Garrett's and theirs was still fresh. My advice is to eat your popcorn the day you buy it or you will be eating stale popcorn. read more

Oddly enough, there are more Nuts on Clark locations in Chicago's airports (3 in O'Hare, 1 in Midway) than there are non-airport locations. And their main claim to fame is not nuts, but caramel corn. We were in the O'Hare Terminal 3 (right behind the food court between H and K) when we saw a sign saying all chocolate items were 50% off. There's a lure for my wife. And we got some half-off dark chocolate malt balls. These put Whoppers to shame. Dark chocolate + huge malt balls = awesome airline snack. and half off! and apparently they have the top ranked caramel corn in the country. read more

Overpriced stale popcorn. We bought a small bag in the airport but didn't try it until arriving at our gate. It was the worst popcorn we've ever purchased. Caramel cashew had 3 cashews in the entire bag.. read more

Sometimes you feel like a nut! Well, this place has many. Great choices, flavors, and popcorn too! Great for gifts!

In this COVID world customer service seems to be rare these days, but not at Nuts on Clark in terminal 3 (Gate H) at Ohare. A very courteous and helpful man waited on me today. His pleasant attitude made me smile. Of course the popcorn & nuts are top quality. read more

This is such a treat! I'm not a huge fan of popcorn or sweets, but I made an exception for Nuts on Clark and have been looking forward to coming back to the city for it. I've only tried their caramel and cheese popcorn, which seems to be a favorite amongst many. It's crunchy, sweet, with a tasteful saltiness - absolutely addicting. The location in O'Hare makes it that much more convenient for anyone out-of-state like me. There is usually a line during day time, but it dies down closer to closing. The last time I came by 30 mins after closing but went in just to double check. The lady who was still there called me back and gave me a free bag of their caramel+cheese popcorn! Totally made my night :D read more

Anytime I'm in Chicago, I try to grab a bag. This is the first time I've been to this little stall at O'Hare, I usually fly through Midway and go to the built-in store. The popcorn tastes the same, meaning just as good. Got a medium bag for the flight and it was still cheaper than what United wants to charge for crappy flight snack packs... They should be ashamed. I've had the cheesy kind, the normal kind, and the caramel kind. All have been excellent. This time I did the cheesy. read more

Fantastic service and the popcorn was fantastic. Counter dude was very friendly and helpful. Keep up the good work.

Pop corn is so delicious especially the spicy one! The spice builds over time but is not too much. The cheesy corn is great too, but both make a mess on your hands! read more

Popcorn was nasty and workers really rude don't go here literally wanted to PUKE it was a horrible experience

What a treat coming through O'Hare to find Nuts on Clark! It is a tradition I look forward to- I always get the mixed Carmel and cheese popcorn. It shouldn't be so good together, but it is!!! I always grab a bag passing through town and think of my teen years when we would grab a bag coming home from long wintry Christmas shopping days down in the Loop. Popcorn- it hit the spot then, and it hits it now, every time I come through Chi-town! read more

See all

I got a bucket of mixed popcorn for $10.99. Best deal ever. The size is just right if your carrying it onto an Airplane. read more
