Pretzels near Oak Brook, IL

“Whoa. Never heard of this place before now but let me tell you ..
1) They have Boba
2) Their lemonade can rival CFA but without the whole extra baggage
3) The pretzels now include funnel cake style and some dessert styles with strawberry syrup
4) The owner actually works the stand.
They are in the basement/lower level next to Starbucks across from the candy bar.
They take all forms of payment via Toast (their system emails or print and text receipts).

Frozen lemonade has Blue Raspberry and Strawberry available. Think auntie Anne's but softer.“

“I have never had a bad meal from Gnarly. I have been going here for a few months now and I'm just obsessed. Do yourself a favor and check out the specials. Their barista is a freaking genius when it comes to their specialty drinks. I would eat here everyday if I could. If you love soft pretzels gnarly is the place to be.“

“It seems that it was open in Japan until a few years ago, but this was my first time using it here. Each "MINI PRETZEL DOGS" was bigger than I expected, and the sausage was chewy and filling. I didn't order it this time, but I think it would be even more enjoyable if eaten with ketchup or another sauce. I look forward to the resumption of business in Japan.“

“Great location with perfect service, friendly and polite employees. You can always grab a snack here while shopping in Fashion Outlet Mall. Maybe a bit overpriced but tasty. Pretzels are warm, soft and fresh, I ordered the Almond Crunch and it was so good.“

“They were closing and only had 2 sweet almond pretzels left. At first I was disappointed as I love their salted pretzel with cheese, but thought I'd give it a try. I got the caramel sauce with it and it was really good! Can't wait until next time when I can get a fresh one!!! I have a new favorite - give it a try!!!“

“Just had a fantastic experience at the Yorktown Auntie Anne’s. I went up to the counter to see if my “dairy free” daughter could have a little salt on the side to snack on since she couldn’t eat my pretzel nuggets.

Not only did Ricky take the time to explain that the pretzel dough is dairy free, he said they could also make a special batch separate from the butter station and other possible cross contamination! He also explained they could do any of the other pretzel the same way, without butter!

My daughter loved the special batch he cooked up! Now we know for the future when we visit the mall.

Thanks for the great experience, Ricky!

“Landed in O'Hare and spotted Aunite Anne's, one of my favorite fast foods in the USA are the Mini Pretzel Dogs, loved them. Server was nice but as a British person, being asked for a tip on the credit card for somebody to give me a cup of pretzels is over the top.“
