They removed the tortilla chips from the Mexican Salad. WTF. I ordered delivery yesterday and they no longer use the whole wheat bread and instead give white garlic bread. Not favorable changes :(
ReplyDeleteI like that it indicates what is gluten free.
ReplyDeleteI have eaten at Bare Burger many times, but I have to say it's really losing its appeal to me. I typically have a stomach ache after I eat there, which is definitely not normal for me. In addition, it's insane that the burgers alone are $12 and don't come with fries. I get that they are organic so the meat costs more, but frankly they make up for that with the total lack of size in the meat portion anyway. I drop in for a quick burger and fries with the wife and I'm out $40, and usually leave hungry and not feeling so hot. It's a bit excessive.
ReplyDeleteDid anyone else notice they were selling 40% off vouchers on Gilt City the other day? Not a good sign.
ReplyDeleteKevin
That was for the Chelsea location only. Most likely only becuase it is new. Bareburger is doing quite well i would imagine - all locations are usually packed.
DeleteFive Guys burgers are great and there are no bad after effects. Can't say the same about Bareburger. Rather pricey too, for a hamburger.
ReplyDeleteCompletely different animals, in more ways than one. You get what you pay for. If you want mid-tier, unhealthy burgers, go to Five Guys. If you want upper-tier, healthy fare, go to Bareburger. I've eaten at Bareburger countless times by now, and had several different burgers, salads and sandwiches and never had any problem.
DeleteYes and I what I get is physically ill. Could be the type of oil they use to cook the fries. Could be whatever they use to make the buns, I have no idea. I always eat healthy and I buy organic at home, so it's not about "tiers." My number one complaint is not about getting sick, it's about portion size. Charge me $13 instead of $12 and give me a bigger burger. If I'm in for $12, I'm in for $13. Seriously, who's counting another dollar when you are already buying a $12 burger with no fries.
DeleteWent here and got billed the right amount and then a purchase amount I did NOT make. Wrote to the management via email about what happened and will dispute with the bank if I get charged for it.
ReplyDeletePlace was busy but service was fine and food was good. Be careful with Credit card purchases. I am not sure what happened here, but I have gone to bareburger before and have had different waitresses/waiters without issue.
I genuinely like Bareburger's food, but the prices are a bit much. If you drop $10 bucks on a burger or sandwich, it should come with fries. End of story. And throw in a free sauce instead of charging 55 cents. That's one major selling point for Cheeburger - add on what you want and they don't nickel and dime you.
ReplyDeleteI'm still adjusting to the new menu. My favorite chicken sandwich - the only chicken sandwich I've ever raved about - is gone. I got the fried chicken sandwich today and it was like something I'd get at Mickey D's. I also noticed that fountain soft drinks are $3. Say what? That stuff costs pennies to make.
On a nice note, the salads are a great quality.
Cheeburger Cheeburger is just as expensive as Bareburger, and it's not even organic! I paid $15 for a semi-serious burger and fries. That might be a tiny bit cheaper, but it tastes so greasy and unhealthy, it's not worth it. Pay a little extra and live longer!
