chocolate covered Washington cherries what's not to love! I wanted to gift these to my friends in AZ. fantastic customer service called and we worked out a plan to get them overnight to AZ and not a single package was melted! I'm going to send some at Christmas next- cabernet cherries are my favorite! read more

Always a must stop before visiting Hub's Mom out of State. These are her favorites. This time I also was gifted some treats for my birthday. Chukar is always super busy at Pike Place for both locals and tourists. But worth the wait if you love chocolate covered cherries, like we do. Their staff are always very friendly and patient. And if you're ever near Prosser, Washington, stopping by their factory is also fun. Thank you Chukar read more

Awesome shop in Pike Place Market. They get you by offering free samples, and before you know it, you're buying a bag or two! It's my favorite gift to buy people when I travel. When I was grabbing some presents, they also gave me a little extra package of cherries since I spent over $75. If you're more budget friendly and don't have any allergies, you can buy their bags of "Cherry Bombs" which are their factory seconds (aka misshapen or funny looking bits) which are equally delicious and gives you a good variety. You just can't tell ahead of time what each covered morsel is though, so it's a surprise. You can also buy Chukar Cherries at Whole Foods and other shops here, but this stand has the most variety and also does not have a markup - the prices listed here are the same as the website's pricing. read more

My favorite place to get some yummy treats. They have great chocolate covered cherries (plus some other odd balls). They use dried cherries. Several different types. I personally am I fan of the Rainier cherries. They do provide samples, so try everything and don't be shy! They also have a shop online! Which is great for me! I want my yummy chocolate cherries sent to me in San Francisco. read more

I was last in Seattle 18 years ago. But one of the things I remembered most about Pike Place Market was this spot for chocolate covered cherries. So when I was finally back in town, I made a beeline. They're super friendly and give out tastes! I went with classic milk chocolate cherries. They're pricey but honestly worth it! read more

We were offered a free sample, and couldn't resist after reading all the great reviews. People were extremely friendly. The cherry bings had the perfect cherry to chocolate ratio. Def worth a stop when you visit Pile Place Market. read more

SEATTLE CHOCOLATE CHERRIES (4 stars) One thing about Seattle, they have the best fresh cherries and berries. But don't be fooled, they aren't using fresh cherries and berries but they are using WA grown dried cherries and berries. - LOCATION: top floor of Pike Place Market close to alot of the seafood stuff - SAMPLES: they have a few options out for sampling - LIES: "people" say it's overpriced at the airport but they are priced the same as this store. Store may have more things but they don't sell the small packages but the airport does. What do tourist do? Go to Pike Place Market and buy stuff like... a bouquet of flowers, chocolate cherries, and jam. So strange, I've lived in Seattle during my college years and never paid any attention to Chukar Cherries although they are posted at every retail store in the airport. The tourist in me had to buy some and bring home to San Diego. I sampled whatever was given out, this store had a variety of sweets. I settled for some of the seasonal limited edition stuff. WHITE CHOCOLATE COVERED BLUEBERRIES ($12.95) - I have a sweet tooth and to eat sweets in moderation the white chocolate helps with that. The dried blueberries are tasty but wish the blueberries had a little more juice to them. But this is overall really good, white chocolate and blueberry flavor. HAZELNUT CHERRIES ($12.95) - this is good because I love the combo of nuts, milk chocolate, and cherries and this was their only offering in that series of combination. I wanted to buy more but my luggage space said "no". Until the next review... read more

Hands down one of my favorite vendors at Pike Place Market. You see, I have the biggest sweet tooth and it's getting worse as I get older...but cherries have antioxidants...and those are good for you...so, the way I see it, Chukar Cherries are healthy ;) With that said, Chukar Cherries are absolutely delicious. Plenty of samples so you can try almost everything before you buy....which I did. No one batted an eye! I bought two bags to take home to share with my children. Absolutely worth the price! Definitely on my list when I'm back at Pike Place Market! read more

After receiving a bag of Chukar Cherries as a gift I was excited to discover that their home was a short stroll from my hotel near Pike Place Market in Seattle. I arrived at Chukar looking for the Classic Dark, though I didn't know it at the time. Luckily the staff know their cherries and began their sampling with the exact one I was looking for. If you love cherries, you must stop here! read more

They truly believe in the quality of their products. They let you sample all of their products before you make your purchase. Every thing we tried was delicious. We will stop by every time we visit our daughter and bring their products home with us. read more

Ordered several items and enjoyed the dried cherries and their chocolate covered cherries, but the chocolate biscotti cookies were a real disappointment. read more

I can't stop thinking about this place now that I'm home from visiting Seattle! Their chocolate cherries are so delicious, I bought one bag of Bing Cherries and just regret that I didn't buy more flavors! The staff were also so friendly and I love that they let us try samples of the cherries before buying. read more

Great gift ideas. We ordered online a bunch of cherry quartet and cherry blossom 2.75oz packs to give to like 40+ extended family folks, and it went great with pretty red packaging and not too heavy to carry. Cherry quartet offers four great varieties, especially the milk and dark covered whole bing cherries and the dark covered rainier. The cherry blossoms were cute with the pink colored white chocolate coating. Chukar takes quality seriously so they use gourmet chocolate (guittard) and fresh dried whole cherries usually (except for the dried tart cherries). Not cheap and hard to find big deals but worth it. We've also been to the pike's place location - friendly folks giving free samples :) read more

Want to be addicted to a chocolate candy. Try the Chukar Cherries (dark chocolate is my fave) and there is no turning back. Not the cheapest but the balance between the chocolate and sweet cherries is unbeatable. A definite great gift item as well. read more

I'm not a huge fan of cherries but these have changed my mind completely! My friend took us here when we were visiting and told us they were a must try. We got to sample the truffle cherries and I was immediately hooked. I ended up buying 2 bags. They are so delicious and honestly hard to just eat one or two. The employees were very friendly and let us sample their white chocolate blueberries as well after purchasing the 2 bags which were also delicious. This will be a new required stop for me whenever I'm in Seattle! read more

Found Chukar Cherries during my recent visit to Seattle and I am so happy I did. I appreciated that they let me sample a few different cherries to see what I wanted to take home. They also offered a discount if you purchased more than one bag. I left with the Amaretto Rainier cherries and they were delicious! They barely made it home because they are such a perfect snack. I liked that they use dark chocolate as well as milk chocolate because it allows for a deeper flavor and doesn't feel as cloyingly sweet. I have now looked into ordering some to ship. read more

I have ordered several gifts for my parents, and mother in love as they all love chocolate cherries and trail mix. I've found Chukar Cherries to be best way to send love from WA, as the gift options are plentiful from cherries, chocolates, trail mix, WINE, preserves, jam, syrups, sugar free, and vegan. The customer service is always perfect, and if you order online you will continue to receive offers throughout the year. My wonderful husband surprised me with flowers, and trail mix. Most would think trail mix is just trail mix; but this trail mix is filled with plum cherries and fresh unsalted almonds, pistachios, and cashews making it the PERFECT snack for me!!! If you're seeking really nice WA state gifts or treat for yourself definitely visit Chukar Cherries!!! read more

Ever since I lived in Seattle these chocolate-covered cherries have been my obsession. Now whenever I or relatives are in Seattle, bringing home several bags of Chukar (provinces Chuck-er) Cherries is a must! My absolute favorite flavor are the Cabernet Dark Chocolate Cherries, which pair perfectly with any dessert, or simply by themselves. They used to have a large selection at SeaTac airport, however, I can't seem to find it anymore. Not to mention the prices were higher than at Pike Place market. All I can say is visit and try some samples! read more

BEST. CHOCOLATE. COVERED. CHERRIES. EVER. I DREAM AND CRAVE these chocolate covered cherries delicacies. For starters, I dislike chocolate fruit flavored or chocolate covered desserts. So when I was introduced to these, I was very hesitant. BUT THEN MY LIFE CHANGED. You can truly taste the freshness and quality of the cherries and chocolate. Pre-covid, this stand at Pike's Place was EXTREMELY generous with sampling. The staff are friendly, patient, and so knowledgeable. Honestly they wouldn't give you attitude if you sampled 10 chocolate balls and walked away. That's how nice they are!! I was in chocolate heaven. I tried so many, my taste buds could not keep track of which ones I loved because I LOVED THEM ALL. It's REALLY hard to choose which bag to go with because they're allllll so delicious. If you're looking to buy something for friends back home or just for yourself, BUY THIS. Skip the postcard and Seattle mugs. The only regret you'll have is not buying more when you run out the first week you finish a bag because they are that addicting. The only slightly downside is that you can easily spend $50-$100 on just a few bags. The bags are not cheap but honestly you can't get these anywhere else so I think it's worth it. If you or a friend are visiting Seattle, tell them to RUN to this place and grab you a few bags home. read more

I appreciate Chukar reaching out to correct their mistake of giving me the wrong bag. Great customer service!

Dark chocolate cabernet cherries for the win! So happy this vendor was part of our food tour. Two of my fave things combined into one awesome sweet treat. The staff here is terrific, will explain what they offer, prices and discounts, and let you have a plenty of samples. They make so many different kinds of cherry snacks, chocolates, jams, mixes, syrups, and more. This was perfect timing to purchase an assortment of bags to have in our cabin to snack on during our Alaskan cruise. They have a good website too which we have used to send family gift baskets. read more

Yummy! I think of lots of good food when I think of Seattle, and I think of Chukar Cherries. They've been at Pike Place market for 18 years! They have a family owned business and they use local products. Service was nice. Their chocolate cherries are so good! They also sell nuts and other berries, like raspberries. They're so good, and you can find their products at the airport also. Highly recommended! read more

Whenever we travel we always like to visit some of the local shops for local foods. We enjoy different grocery stores as different parts of the Country have different foods and items that are not available where we live or as fresh. Some examples of this are the fried nuts we found in Charleston or Dukes mayonnaise usually found in the South. Cherries are prevalent in Washington and Chukar Cherries has all sorts of snacks and treats. They have different nuts, granolas and different jams to name just a few. We elected to get some Cherry Blossoms which were chocolate covered cherries and some cocoa covered honey roasted pecans. The lady at the booth was very friendly answering our questions and even offered a couple of samples. Snacks are a bit overpriced in our opinions but then again considering the cost to ship these treats if we were to order them from home, it all works out. Plus we're on vacation. read more

From the first bite I fell in love with Chukar Cherries. The company has been in business for three decades. Their cherries and berries are the perfect blend of tart and sweet. While visiting I purchased a bag of cherry bombs. It's a bag of bits and pieces that get caught in the machine and are scooped out and packaged. The bag is filled with odds and ends of several different chocolate covered items that that make. I liked the variety and wished that I purchased a second bag. The service that we received was very friendly and informative. Since Covid they ask that you do not touch any of the items being sold. Instead you rattle off your order and the employees grab them for you. read more

These cherries were so fun to try on our food tour that we went back and purchased a few for our friends and family back at home. The amaretto cherries were one of our favorites but I ended up buying myself the honey pecan chocolates. If you are not a big cherry fan, these were still so good and so delicious! You can sample them before purchasing. read more

Even though I grew up here I had never had Chukar Cherries until a few years ago. We were in Prosser where they are located and I got to try Tart Cherries covered in Dark Chocolate with Orange - and fell in love! So good! I hadn't had any recently because it is dangerous to have them in the house. But we were at Pike Place this weekend so I finally had to buy another bag. Also bought Amaretto Dark Chocolate Rainier Cherries. And I got a discount for buying two bags. Highly recommend this great Pacific Northwest product! read more

I can't say enough good things about this place! I've been going back to the same stall in the Pike Place Market for 10 years! And even after 10 years, chukar cherries are still the best chocolate covered cherries I've ever had. My new favorite is the Black Forest Cherries. Definitely will be going back whenever I'm in town! read more

Their stand in located right tin the center of Pike Place Market on the main level. I'm not even a huge fan of cherries, but I wanted to see what the hype was about. These were pretty damn good!!! The people who were helping us were also super sweet. Prices of each bag cost $10.50. It hurt a little to pay considering it's not the largest bag, but I did it for my friends and family back home! They do have a little deal where if you buy in pairs, you'll save a few. The more pairs you buy the more you save. (ex: If you buy 2 bags, you save $1. If you buy 4 bags, you save $1.50 etc.) Here is what I tried: ---TRUFFLE CHERRIES: Comes with dried bing cherries covered with milk chocolate and sweet cocoa. This was my favorite of the ones that I tried, although I loved them all really. AMAZING!! Perfect combo! ---HONEY PECAN: Comes with honey-roasted praline pecans covered in artisan milk chocolate and powdered sugar. I liked this but found this a little too sweet if I ate too much haha. I still loved it and this was my dad's favorite! ---BING CHERRIES: Comes with dried bing cherries and cherry essence and covered with milk chocolate. When I asked how this compared to their classic milk cherries, the main difference was this had an added cherry essence juice that's in the middle of each bite. Classic choice and I think they nailed it!! Wish I tried more flavors! Can't wait to come back for more!! read more

I love Chukar Cherries . Their stand is in the heart of Pike Place Market! It is so easy to find, and they are very generous with their samples. Chukar Cherries are also sold at Bartell Drugs (which is GREAT) but nothing beats their stand in person :) my personal favorites are the 4 chocolate quartet Cherries (which I don't have pictured for the reason that they don't last long opened), tart cherries and the bing Cherries. To traveling Seattleites: BEST. GIFTS. To give to our of towners and Airbnb hosts. Seriously. These are easy to love! Their website is great as well-nothing beats in person, but their website is wonderful too. read more

Chukar: a type of partridge native to the Middle East and Southern Asia and was introduced into North America as a game bird. Chukar Cherries​: a dried cherry shop native to Washington that was introduced to me at Pike Place Market. The cherries here are so delicious. They have your standard dried Bing cherries, Rainier cherries (My personal favorite), and various chocolate covered cherries. I ended up with dried organic Rainier cherries, Chipotle chocolate cherries and tangerine chocolate cherries. In addition to dried cherries they also sell preserves and nuts. They offer discounts for buying two items and bigger discounts for buying four items. Service here was so friendly and the lovely young woman helping me was willing to let me sample as many cherries as I desired before deciding on my cherry bonanza. I would definitely come here again or order online to buy cherries for myself and as gifts. read more

Cherries are one of those things that I just totally love either sweet with a pit or covered in that dark chocolate goodness that always hit the spot! This little stand is located inside Pike Place Market on the top floor so it's pretty easy to find your way here and definitely make sure you do because the cherries are totally rewarding! They offer a ton of different delicious cherry variations from sweet to savory they've got you covered in every cherry way! By far the dessert cherries are some of the best ones you can get anywhere they are just soo flavorful you can't pass up bringing home a jar or two! We totally brought home some of these delicious cherries in both dessert forms of course by this I mean the ones in a jar and the the chocolate covered ones in the bag which I just enjoyed one here back at home as I wrote this review! Overall you can't go wrong with coming here especially because they give you samples of everything you could possibly wanna try to get you hooked on the delicious cherry goodness your going to want and crave! read more

Regan and Sam are phenomenal employees selling an excellent product. Everything was delicious!

One of the must stops when inside the market. You can sample just about anything they have here. Ask and you shall receive. I found out about this place through a food tour and was able to get the 411 on how this business started. Bottom line, the lady who decided to buy the cherry orchards knew nothing about growing them so she left that to all the harvesters and focused on the creativity part, thus all the cherry products this store has to offer. I'm all for natural ingredients that I can pronounce with a minimal keycount but more importantly, I love dark chocolate covered anything. Enter their CABERNET CHERRIES which is enveloped with dark chocolate. This has no alcohol content but is paired wonderfully with wine. A bag is about $10 and you get a small box for free if you sign up for their promo emails. I saved a buck from the 10% discount card that I got at the end of the tour. Yay for more money in my pocket! Another product worth raving about is their PEACH CHERRY SALSA but don't limit yourself when you're here. Again, sample away. Too many decadent items to choose from and they're beautifully packaged which truly make for wonderful gifts. Not local? Don't worry, they ship almost anywhere in the US. See site for details. read more

We took a family trip to Seattle and visited Pike's Market a few years ago. My Mom tried a sample of the chocolate covered cherries and bought some. We loved them so much and wish we bought more! Now when my brother visits his friend in Seattle we always request he buy some chocolate covered cherries for us. These are made from good quality cherries and chocolates. They make wonderful gifts. The cherry quartet is a nice mixture of cherries and milk and dark chocolate. I recommend it. read more

My cousins are locals of Seattle but they didn't know about Chukar at Pike Place until my fiancé got a recommendation from his boss. It's a pretty big stand tucked into the inside part of the main strip but it's near the fresh flower stand. It's nice that they let you try samples before you buy! If you buy multiples, they offer discounts! We ended up getting the milk chocolate cherries, dark chocolate cherries, and the cherry bings. The bings were my favorite ones! **If you have a peanut/tree nut allergy, they do manufacture their products on equipment that share the same surface. Although they do clean their machines, I would recommend that you be cautious in trying their cherries depending on how severe your allergy is! read more

AMAZING ladies at Chukar!! Normally you'd think you're going to Pike's Place Market for the flying fish and the tourists chanting all kinds of...well, chants, to make the fish "fly". When I was there, it seemed the tourists yelled out whatever the fish mongers said, so even if they said non-sensical stuff like "Goony Goo Goo!!" the rest of the tourists would chant in unison, just to make the fish fly and sail through the air in all its Pike glory; no matter if the chant was total non-sense or not. I am sure the fish mongers laugh daily. Of course, maybe the chants were real, but they still sounded like goo goo to me. I'm steadily reaching the age where I may need hearing aids, but I digress... So I stumble along Chukar after not getting any attention from a not-to-be-mentioned Jelly stand and it was totally unnerving to be greeted, smiled at, offered samples and literally beamed-at by cosmic feel-good-vibes from the friendly ladies at Chukar! I went from ice fields to warm sunny in less than 20 minutes...whoa? The people at Chukar Cherries are totally in love with their products and with their products and it shows. It also helps that Chukar Cherries are practically world-famous but that doesn't stop them from being very humble and still connected to their customers! I'll come here again and next time I'm ordering a lot more stuff. If they mail order I'm doing that too...Chukar you've got a fan! read more
