About this location
Terminal 5 has only one Nuts on Clark, a confectionery counter running from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. That window covers the terminal's daytime departure banks but closes well before evening arrivals are still filing through the building. The stock here leans toward candied nuts and fudge rather than the packaged snacks a general newsstand carries, a narrower selection than a shop stocking drinks and magazines alongside candy. With no second Nuts on Clark anywhere else at O'Hare, there is no earlier or later sibling in the terminal to set its hours against; what is posted here is the only version travelers passing through Terminal 5 will find.
