I love Garrett Popcorn Shops and have loved them since the first time I had them in Downtown ChiTown over a decade ago. Having a layover at O'Hare allows me to bring back a bag of these special treats for my loved ones. Thank goodness I was in Terminal 1 in the B gates. This little stand is located next to gate B7. My favorite flavor to get is always the Chicago Mix - a blend of their cheddar and caramel popcorn. This sweet and savory treat makes the perfect gift! read more

One of my favorite popcorns places and I only get it when at the airport. Chikibia has such a great attitude and personality and really made our transaction fun as short as it was. The process was fast. My popcorn was fresh and delicious! I'd be in trouble if there was a location closer to my home! read more

Been here before years ago. I remember it tasting better back then! Anyway I purchased a combination of low salt and butter popcorn, and also the Carmel / cheese combo popcorn. I got to my hotel to enjoy the butter low salt popcorn and it was stale!! Booo!! So disappointed. I opened the Carmel and cheese package the next day and it too was stale tasting. How sad it that??!!! Maybe they don't make it fresh anymore. But unfortunately I won't be spending my money there anymore. read more

Popcorn is a great plane snack, so we stocked up for our flight so we had something to munch on while we watched movies! Butter popcorn- expected this to be my favorite, but was a bit less salty and more just buttery. Decent, but I prefer movie theater popcorn. Cheese popcorn- freaking addicting. So cheesy and delicious. Down side is that the flavoring will leave a residue on your hands, so make sure to have napkins handy! Caramel corn- great sweet option to close out with. A bit pricey, though that's to be expected in an airport! read more

It's so necessary stop by Garrett's for some popcorn. Shoutout to Tati, Margaret, and Jahmiah! They're the best. They provided not only awesome service and good popcorn flavor recommendations, but they had my friend I laughing all the way to checkout (yes it's not a long walk but you get it). I definitely recommend stopping by this particular terminal for great service and good quality popcorn. read more

A new tradition has begun. Any layover time at O'Hare will involve a stop at Garrett's. Sounds nuts but try the caramel and cheese. I never would've combined the two, but they did and it's really good. Lotsa other options, too. You're bound to find something appealing! The popcorn tasted just as good the next day. Provided you seal out as much air as possible. Fair warning: they have a long line that doesn't move the fastest. If you're pressed for time, look at one of the kiosks in the terminal. They have pre-packaged bags waiting for you. The girls were very helpful and patient. It's the people in line that can be a challenge. Like most places, try to figure out what you want BEFORE getting to the register. Can't wait to fly through here again! 07/25 read more

Passed by early morning and of course we had to stop and get some popcorn! I enjoy the cheese the most and it was delish as always. When you have the chance, be sure to stop by and grab some! read more

When one finds oneself during a layover at O'Hare, there are four pro moves, in my opinion, that help the hours go by. Assuming you are not in a private lounge. These tips are not for you. Go back to enjoying being elite while the rest of us have to get creative ;) Tip number one. Go for a long walk. O'Hare is a massive labyrinthine airport. I had a 5 hour layover. Spend as much time walking and exploring. It's essential for your mental and physical stamina. Tip number two. Do you see all the flight crew members toting around striped Garrett Popcorn bags? They suffer no fools. Find a Garrett Popcorn stand and ask to sample their wares. Buy the biggest sized bag - trust me. The Chicago mix (caramel and cheddar cheese) still tasted good a week later. High marks for the sea salt as well. Be the envy of your seat mates on the next leg of your flight, plus it makes a terrific gift. Tip number three: Find the open air rotunda. Go up the stairs. There you will find a quiet and peaceful lounge, with an array of seating options, desks, and outlets and blessedly, not many people. You will also discover a yoga studio. I spent 20 minutes doing sun salutations all by myself. Get yourself rebalanced again. Tip number four. This brings me to Tortas Frontera. Absolutely delicious options, but most especially, the tacos. Don't forget copious amounts of hand sanitizer, because you'll be licking your fingers. They also serve margaritas in to-go cups. Now, those are $17 bucks a pop, but at least they were generous with the tequila. Order a second to take with you on your plane. When the gate agent asks if there is alcohol, politely smile and say "No, ma'am". Happy travels! read more

I usually prefer nuts on Clark but you can't actually fail with either one. These are smaller denser kernels which lead to less topping per piece but the cheese is really good as is the caramel read more

Super convenient location! When I passed during my outbound, there was a line and I didn't have a very long layover so decided to pass. I did, however, make sure to stop by on my return flight. Service was super quick. Price wasn't terribly high for the airport and a delicious snack. They were super organized which I appreciated so much (being in a rush AGAIN because of a short layover!). By the time I got to the register, she already rung up my item and was ready for payment! Will definitely get it again. Warning, the caramel is a bit oily so be sure to grab napkins. read more

Quick place inside the busy ohare airport to pick up a local favorite. Bought a couple small popcorns which ended up costing $18. Remember to grab napkins if you get the cheese popcorn mix as they dont include them in your bag for you. The popcorn received was delish, consistent with popcorn shops in the city. read more

We were headed back home to Austin at the O'Hare airport and noticed they had the yummy Chitown popcorn-Garretts on the way to our gate, so we had to stop and gets some small bags of the Chicago mix and picked up a new one that was pecan. Its a tiny spot to get a quick order of some popcorn and you can choose to get them in there Souvenir Tins as well. It's well worth the stop and glad they have them in the airport now. They have a few sizes to choose from. Highly recommend! If you haven't had them yet, you're missing out. read more

Garrett Popcorn Shop is definitely a popular place to bring back for family and friends. Their most famous flavor is their "Chicago mix", which is Half caramel popcorn and half cheddar. I like their caramel popcorn. On this occasion, I brought their seasonal frango popcorn, which had caramel popcorn mixed with chocolate covered popcorn and mint chocolate flavored popcorn. Delicious. Other nice thing about this location at O Hare airport is that the cost mirrors what they charge at locations in downtown. Not cheap, but at least it's not marked up further at the airport! read more

A Chicago treat for over 70 years, I really had to try Garrett's. Even one of my coworkers said it was a must during my last layover at O'hare. The line wasn't too long. So while I waited my turn, I scoped out which kind to try. There were quite a few variations. I chose Pecan CarmelCrisp. It was very rich and crisp and the pecans broke up the sweetness! Service wasn't the friendliest but the cashier did smile back at me. All in all, service was quick and efficient. I read that they rotate in new flavors, so I'll have to check for those next time I'm at Ohare. read more

I stopped at this location, because I just landed and didn't want to drive in the city. It was a waist of money. I had kernels and crumbs. When they get that low, they should toss it.

I've been to Chicago a couple of times, and I've heard that Garrett popcorn is one of the things to get when you visit. I've wanted to try it but thought, how good can popcorn get? My bf convinced me last time not to get it since it looked like a tourist trap, but I was still always curious. When I had the chance to visit for a day, I decided to get a bag at the airport before leaving the city. It ended up being a good last minute decision. I got to the airport a little before 7:00am which is when the stand opens. I sat down nearby to wait but saw that a line was already forming before they were ready. I decided to get in line before it got longer. Of course, if this was going to be my first time here, I wanted the fan-favorite Garrett mix: caramel popcorn and cheese popcorn. I ended up ordering a medium bag of it. It tried one of each before packing it away in my bag. The caramel and cheese popcorn surprisingly went well together. I think I may have even tried this popcorn back when I was a child, but it certainly wasn't as fresh and airy as this. When I got back to my bf's place, I offered him some. I think the only regret I had ordering from Garrett's Popcorn was not getting a larger size. My bf was as addicted as I was...maybe even more so. He took back all the things he said about this popcorn being a tourist trap. We both preferred the caramel popcorn from the mix but despite that, I still wouldn't get a bag of just caramel. The sharpness of the cheese really complements the sweetness of the caramel. The price of the popcorn is pretty darn good for the amount you get. Needless to say, definitely grab a bag of Garrett popcorn before you leave Chicago. I will be buying more on my next trip. read more

You must get yourself some popcorn from Garrett's before you leave Chicago! This is my second stop at this location and I will most likely always make it a stop to get my popcorn fix before heading home. Employees were friendly even though they had a huge line and it was closer to closing time so the inventory was running low. I got myself the Garrett mix in a small cute pink tin and it almost didn't even make it home. It's soooo addicting! Paid $15 for the small tin with the Garrett mix but so worth it! read more

I love this popcorn so much and had to have it!!! The staff...‍ I'm not sure what to think honestly but 1 of the guys who works here was awesome and he was really nice as we had a good laugh together. Lol I crack myself up sometimes. He needs to be cloned because his customer service skills were APLUS!!! A employee/lady on the other hand, was horrible!!! FIRST, there were only 2 of us in line and she was working on a ordered POPCORN tin, trying to seal it for a current customer... which took her at least 15min to do... but then, this chick picks up her cell phone after that customer being served, and started chatting away... WHO DOES THAT??? ON SPEAKER!!! WHAT IN THE... ON GODS Gravel, brown and GREEN EARTH, IS SOME OF YALL IN CUSTOMER SERVICE THINKING??? SHEESH!!! You're forgetting that we're in an airport meaning that, we don't have all day lady. Oh my Lord!!! I swear I can't make this stuff up!!! That's when THE NICE employee/ guy with great CUSTOMER SERVICE, came out to help. Thank you Sir, you saved us all from missing flights. Prese give this fella a day off and a raise please!!! SOMEBODY PEAR send uncover boss to check out this location because, some folks don't belong in customer service... forgive me if it were an emergency but ma'am you could've called another coworker to help out instead of just walking off screaming on speaker phone (which, didn't appear to be an emergency) and walking away leaving us in line hanging. She didn't even have the decency to call for backup. She was unorganized, unpredictable, and unprofessional to day the least! Leave your personal life at home ma'am. I wont post your photo because I'm embarrassed for you. You're welcome! Located in the airport terminal. I only posted photos that were incriminating to protect the nice employee who came out to help after hearing ole girl screaming on the phone... I'm sure! read more

Garrett's is hands down the best popcorn ever made! Growing up in the Chicagoland area, my family and I thoroughly enjoyed eating it every chance we got. Now that I don't live in Chicago anymore, it's definitely a treat that I must get anytime I visit. Thankfully, Garrett's was open in the O'Hare airport when we were leaving to go back to Virginia, so we made sure we ordered a few bags. My favorite is the Garrett Mix which is a mix of the Caramel Crisp and the Cheese Corn and it is the perfect sweet and salty combination! I've never had any of the other flavors but if they are as good as the Caramel and Cheese, then I know they are amazing! If you haven't tried Garrett's you are definitely missing out. read more

Last month, I was flying home from Minneapolis through Chicago O'Hare (ORD) International Airport. I had arrived at a C gate and needed to get to a B gate for my final flight segment home. When I got to the B concourse, I saw Garrett Popcorn Shops. Chicago mix is the popcorn flavour that Chicago is known for. There was a lineup at this stand. It was a sign that I should get some popcorn. I LOVE popcorn. Two flight attendants that were on my flight from Minneapolis lined up. They would definitely know what's good if they are always working this flight segment. Garrett has a ton of popcorn sizes in both bags and tins. The two flight attendants were debating getting the jumbo. Holy cow! If you can picture a long body pillow, the jumbo is that size where you can go to sleep hugging it. I feel like it may be a challenge storing it in the overhead compartment of any plane and that I'd need to get a plane ticket for it. It's funny, but I was in a caramel popcorn mood for my entire trip. I got a medium bag of CaramelCrisp popcorn. I was looking forward to trying it out. Staff at this store are efficient. I ordered. I then got a Diet Pepsi. I paid with a credit card and all was great. I thanked both women and happy walked across to my gate. I still had time before boarding. I sat down and munched on my popcorn. There were a few cheese ones accidentally mixed in. I was delighted getting a mini bonus of the Chicago mix. The CaramelCrisp was excellent. OMG! I was practically inhaling the stuff. The popcorn was crisp with the perfect amount of caramel coating on each popped piece of popcorn. So good! My mouth is watering as I reminisce about this popcorn. I finished my popcorn the next day back in the greater Toronto area. It was so yummy. Maybe I should go jumbo like the flight attendants. Between Garrett and Nuts on Clark, I prefer the former more. The edge is with the crispness of the popcorn. However, if I see the latter, I'm not going to say no to decent popcorn. This find was wonderful. It's nice that I can get excellent Chicago popcorn during a layover. (109) read more

Love the popcorn. I travel every other week and always grab a bag of cheddar for my flight. November 1st I decided to buy the Chicago tin for $44.00! First, the guy helping me was talking on his phone the whole time. I had to tell him three times, while he was going back and forth on his phone, I wanted the tin with "CHEDDAR" only. He then goes and fills the tin. Taped it shut. So I purchased dark chocolate pecans and figured okay I'll eat the popcorn when I get home. I get home, open the tin, and he filled half with caramel and half cheddar!!!! Note: most of it is Carmel! Waste of 44.00! I don't eat Carmel popcorn. read more

I love Garrett's popcorn so much that I don't have a picture.. I ate my Garrett's Mix (cheese and carmel popcorn) so fast I was unable to get a picture of my favorite Chicago treat. I used to stop by Garretts years ago every time I was downtown. Now, Garrett's is located in Chicago O'hare Airport. I recommend getting a large and save some for later. When I fly to visit relatives, I buy a bag for them. My family in Chicago and in other states all love Garrett's popcorn, great for gifts, and for yourself. read more
