Nuts on Clark

Nuts on Clark is a staple in Chicago. I got to the window at 5:30 PM and the woman who was working seemed upset and when I asked for some popcorn she said “all we got is what is on the shelves because I’m closing soon.” Close is at 7 according to the sign up front and online. Not serving popcorn an hour and a half before close is pretty nuts to me. No pun intended.

The vending machine at M20 in terminal 2 had stale butter flavor. $5 for butter flavored chewing gum. How do I get a refund?

I got a bag of Carmel Corn. I opened it and it was 1/4 full. Definitely not worth getting. AVOID AT ALL COSTS! It was stale and over priced. Chicago has terrible popcorn? I'm not getting any of the other products.

Please be careful when you use their kiosks. It does not vend. Don't waste money. Edited: added 4 stars for service as they did reimburse the money.

Shop in terminal 5 is great, good portion size for an airport location and cashier was friendly too..

Leslie closed 20 minutes early and refused to sell us popcorn. She was very rude.

Chicago's iconic popcorn and nuts chain store, a must for popcorn lovers 😋 👌

Wasn't fresh

Nuts on Clark was a new popcorn brand I hadn't seen before since I visited Chicago last year! I love popcorn and so I just couldn't pass up on this. I got the spicy cheese popcorn in the bag and honestly, I probably would've really liked it but it was stale once I opened it. So if you're wanting to try this, opt for the fresh one instead of the bags!

Self service machines so the service is much better than other airport snack and food stalls. Fresh popped popcorn, just like Ron Santo used to promote. No human contact. 6$ for a small but satisfying bag. You could do a lot worse in ORD. Grab a bag and wander down to the photographs and stories of WWII veterans, it's a moving tribute and the popcorn goes well with.

My family recently got this on our layover. I'm not the biggest fan of mix but this stuff was great. It was a super convenient snack for our trip. The caramel popcorn was our favorite as it was super sweet with a thick layer. It paired well with the cheese corn, which was superrrr cheesy. The cheese was a little thick which wasn't my favorited but it evened out with the sweetness of the carmel corn. Overall the service and ambiance was great and they helped us pick out which flavors to choose from.

From another friend's recommendation after I keep buying garette's I finally got to try this. Maybe it's bc it's at the airport kiosk location where traffic flow isn't as high? When I finally tried the popcorn after a 10 hour flight it tasted not as fresh and a tad stale. But the flavors were still great! Will go and try the union station store next time!

You know, I don't remember seeing any nuts?? Killer every type of popcorn, some popped on the premises.... Plus, kettle corn, caramel corn, chedder corn....... PERFECT FOOD to take on a plane and not piss off any fellow travelers... Nice people working there. Trying for the old newsstand vibe. This is.

Tasty popcorn ... interesting flavors. Just a bit pricey. But the service is good and it's a great pit stop at the airport. It's a very busy shop, tight, and fast-moving. But worth grabbing a bag to take with you.

I've been by these Nuts on Clark places many times over the years, but had never stopped in until this time.... It smelled so good in there, like fresh popcorn, so I bought a small box of popcorn. The popcorn was really good and 99% of the kernels were popped into a full bloom looking pop corn. The flavor was great too!

I like Nuts on Clark! I tried their Oreo Cookie flavored popcorn and it's not bad! Mixed it with the cheesy flavor and together it's pretty yummy! Always get some kind of popcorn coming through O'Hare.

So I usually really love the nuts in Clark popcorn. But this time it was pretty bad. Not sure why by it didn't even last a few hours. It got all mushy and terrible before we could even eat it.

It's always a must to stop here when I'm in Chicago! I highly recommend the caramel cashew popcorn--sweet, nutty, and packed with flavor. To round it out, grab some dark chocolate covered cashews too. You really can't go wrong with either. A classic Chicago treat that never disappoints!

A decent Popcorn place at the Chicago O'Hare Airport. Pricey, as expected, but taste wise, was alright. Kind of hard, but had good caramel flavoring, for the one bag I bought for $6.00 for a 5oz. Small portion, but I suppose that's good enough for a place inside the airport. Received a pleasant service during my purchase experience.

I stopped by the H terminal in Chicago to get a small bag of popcorn. I didn't know they had EXTRA SMALL BAGS! The lady at the counter served my coworkers small bags and they were filled. Then when I got my popcorn she filled it HALF of the small size bag! Why would I not get the same amount? I will never shop there again and I will tell all my friends who work at the airport and those who travel all the time about this to make sure they check their bags as the woman shoved my tiny bag into a box!

The popcorn was a bit stale but the flavors were great! It was easy to order and they have a lot of fun flavors. I stopped by on the way to my gate as an impulse buy. They also have some cute Chicago souvenir tins, which I really considered purchasing. Only note otherwise is that it's not super obvious (at least to me) what the prices were for the off-flavors.

Location Between terminal E/F Service Terrific! Very thorough. Selection So many kinds of popcorn-fresh! Oreo, almond/pecan glazed, butter, cheese, hot cheese, also a variety of nuts and candy. Tip= Chicago style is butter and cheese mixed. Summary This is a must every time we land in Chicago! Just gotta have some! My husband had it for the first time-"this is the best popcorn!"

Avoid their airport dispensing machines. Got charged $11. Received not even a handful of stale popcorn at the bottom of the bag. Seems to be a common and unresolved problem, based on other reviews online.

Cute little shop located in the Chicago airport terminal 3. We didn't have time to run to Garrets famous popcorn so we stopped in to Nuts on Clark. The sales gal was very helpful. I tried a sample of that delicious Carmel corn. I bought a couple bags and she packed everything up nicely. The flavor and the freshness of the popcorns were so memorable. I'm now tempted to start mail ordering my Carmel corn.

Had to try Nuts in Clark as they add Garrett's competition! Thank goodness I only had a small order as these were so stale and nowhere as fresh! The customer service was good though !

Went to the location in terminal H. Was caught by the "Oreo popcorn" sign outside the shop. I am a sucker for Oreo anything! Really friendly lady working. She let me sample the Oreo before committing to a bag of it. Ended up not being our thing - we bought a 1/2 and 1/2 bag. I was happy they offered 1/2 and 1/2 of any two styles. We did the cheddar and caramel. I think it was $7 for the smallest size which was enough for two people. Came in a fancy plastic style bag and then in an even fancier box.

Did you miss church on Sunday? Not to worry, this popcorn will have you feeling immediately present with the Devine. I had the immense pleasure of getting to eat fist-fulls of the Carmel popcorn AND the cheddar popcorn. Both were well beyond my wildest expectations.

While nuts on Clark as seen as a staple of a trip to Chicago I could not help but be disappointed by the quaintly. I guess that comes with a purchase of anything at the airport. The popcorn hit the spot as I was starving but it had the stale quality you get with popcorn from a tin a Christmas time or from the boy scouts.

Back Home at My Original "Home" location...(Southside Actually) but hey I'm in Chicago via O'hare airport!! Couldn't resist to stop and get this Delicious Concoction of Cheesy and Carmel Delights!! The aroma was filling the air as I walked by to get to my Gate!! It's a Temptation that no Human can resist.....lol.. Simple combination of warm n satisfying fresh popcorn!! Great little snack to tide my over until later on!! I haven't had "Real Chicago Popcorn" in over 5 Year's and boyyyyyyyyy was this Delicious!!!

I have never been so disappointed in this establishment. Came to ORD on a lay-over and skipped the self-service kiosk. We came into the store to purchase a bag of mixed popcorn. To my dismay the entire bag was STALE.

It was very excited to pick up some popcorn and bring it back to my wife. When I got home, we open the popcorn and the cheese popcorn was extremely stale. It was a caramel cheese popcorn mix. The caramel popcorn was OK. Not what I expect from a $10 box of popcorn. I wrote a complaint on the nuts on Clark website and received no response .

Omg! The best caramel popcorn ever!! I have been wanting to get this every single time I transit here. But the shop has been closed due to flight timings. But finally was able to get this!! The layer of caramel on the popcorn is quite thick. It is mouthwatering and heavenly! A definite must visit when you are in the locality!! It's definitely a pride of this wind city!

We stopped at Chicago airport for transfer. I didn't know about this store, but It looked so good. I decided to try when we are waiting for our airplane. We got salty one and caramel cone pop corn. It made our day !!

Deez Nuts are exactly what I wanted to savor from 20 yards away. The intoxicating smell of freshly popped nuts permitted the air as I strolled down H section today to catch my flight home. Wow if the smell alone doesn't get you excited the taste should. The saltines of these nuts in your mouth is worth its weight in gold. Now I'm show you folks have enjoyed salty nuts but these are some damn fine nuts. Nuts on Clark is a small operation but you'll find fresh popped nuts, Carmel coated and cheese coated. Available to purchase are bags , tins and party tins for the group grind. Prices are reasonable for darn sure so splurge, I did. Ok we are talking about POPCORN, I hope you al knew this cause it's damn good stuff. Enjoy your flight and da nuts.

FOOD - Mix: Caramelcorn and cheesecorn. Yummy but definitely not the best popcorn I've had. Some of the corn tasted like they were starting to get stale. Maybe they were day old popcorn. 3.5/5 SERVICE: fast and friendly. 4/5 FINAL THOUGHTS: I would come back to try other goodies.

Love the various Nuts On Clark locations at Chicago O'Hare airport. They usually give out samples of popcorn, the staff is always friendly and patient, and they occasionally have solid sales. Today I decided to swing by while walking to my gate to catch my connection back to California. My reward: caramel popcorn samples (my favorite), no line, an über polite lady at the checkout counter, and a 50% off sale on chocolate covered nuts! Bought a small bag of almonds - dark chocolate covered of course - to snack on during the plane ride. Cost less than five bucks! Beats anything I might buy on the plane. I heart you Nuts On Clark! Will swing by again the next time I'm in town (or at the airport).

I picked up some Spicy Cheese Corn & WOW / it was Super Spicy!! This is a Favorite I hope will stick around for a loooong while!!

I was unable to locate the Nuts on Clark on concourse C at O'Hare. I was very upset with a product and not the service so I am posting here. We purchased a bag of plain popcorn which said it was 45 calories per cup. The nutritional info on the back said it had 10 mgs of sodium per cup. IT WAS SALTY AND GREASY. So, if you are looking for a healthy snack skip this place. THERE WAS NO TRUTH IN ADVERTISING HERE. Everything else looked even worse with artificial colors added. Basically we wasted $7.

A friend suggested I tried Nuts on Clark so I was really excited to see them in the airport terminal. I purchased a small caramel corn from their fresh bin. I enjoyed the taste but found it a little buttery for my liking. In the O'Hare airport there are plenty of Nuts on Clark vending machines to meet your need.

First off,, if you're not ordering the caramel and cheddar combination, there is something seriously wrong with your tastebuds. That kind of flavor combination is definitely the best in the entire universe. Weeeeeeee!!! Anyways, I almost always come and get myself a baggie of popcorn every time I come through ORD. It truly is a iconic snack that is known to be a Chicago thing. It's quick, it's easy, cheap and travels extremely well. I've only encountered the line once, but I was EARLY FOR MY FLIGHT like a RESPONSIBLE jetsetter. I really didn't mind waiting for my turn to purchase a bag, it just makes the anticipation in my mouth just that much more intense. Plus the cashiers and employees are very nice. Come buy popcorn here... because if you don't,, you're not part of the cool kids. Weeeeeee!!!

Right next to our gate and I was starving! It was a long line and people were getting annoyed and leaving. We waited the 10 minutes and got a small cheese and small caramel popcorn. Combined, they are really good. Individually, the cheese was really greasy!! I definitely wouldn't make it a point to visit again but wasn't disappointed. Just ok.

I was headed from a gate in the H section of the O'Hare airport for the K side of things, and spotted Nuts on Clark before I left H territory. The Honey Butter Toffee advertised on a sign sounded intriguing after all... I did not partake, however I had spied a few sampling cups filled with popcorn set on top of the glass case by the counter. As I perused the wall o nuts I noticed 50% off signs on some of the options, so I ended up picking up two sealed bags of the honey butter toffee pecans, normally priced at $19.99/lb, or 0.33 lb for $6.60. There was also a special going on for a free bag of popcorn with any purchase, so that got freshly filled and tossed into my shopping sack as well. I was the last sale of the day as the lights were then turned off shortly before 9pm. The popcorn was okay, as I figured I had better have some before they got stale. As for the nuts, they were pretty good - not too sweet, not too hard. I'm glad, since the second package was for my friend who was picking me up from the airport. Note: According to the company website, they have 3 locations at O'Hare, one at each of Terminals 1 through 3.

I tried to give Clarks a chance, but the popcorn tasted old, and stale. I should have went to Garrett's. I was looking forward to trying this place too, and was totally disappointed. So bummed! I don't know how often they change the popcorn, but it was not fresh. (Sigh)

This is the airport location for Nuts on Clark, and can be found in Terminal 3. The store offers a variety of popcorn flavors in bags and collectible containers. They also have chocolate, nuts, and water for sale. The pricing is the same as the Clark street store. The store is small, but I've never seen it over crowded, at times they will hand out samples. If you're making a purchase, make sure you have room in your carry on!

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.

I know, going here with a nut allergy is, well, a little NUTS. However, I went for popcorn only. I was introduced to the cheddar caramel mix earlier this year while visiting Chicago and I've been hooked since. My go-to place is Garrett's Popcorn, but I wasn't able to make it there during this visit to the windy city. I must have stopped in close to closing time since they were emptying out the popcorn holders and bagging it up by flavor for the night. My popcorn was ok, but I have to say, it didn't quite stand up to Garrett's. The price seemed pretty comparable to Garrett's from what I remember (about $5.50 for a small bag). I wished my combo bag was a little fresher and that the two flavors mixed together a bit better. Overall, it did fulfill my Chicago popcorn craving ... for now.

Ok, so I have never been to Chicago and other than deep dish pizza and a chicago dog, I am not in tune with must buy items. However, when I start seeing long lines at popcorn places I have to do some research. I arrived at O'hare and saw a huge line at Garrett's, but seeing as my connecting flight was at a different terminal, I made a beeline for the escalator. And then I see Nuts on Clark with the same type of popcorn choices. Looking on their yelp page, I find my life-changing popcorn choice: chicago mix!!! Wha???? It is a combination of cheese popcorn and caramel corn in the same bag and omg it was glorious!!!! I bought a 10 Oz bag and finished it in 2 days, it was so good. And then I was slightly depressed because my return flight home was not at O'hare but in Denver instead. I definitely found a new popcorb favorite and I will be back the next time I am in Chicago...and I'll even try Garrett's for comparison :)

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

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.

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.

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?

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.

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

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.

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

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

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