Where in NYC can you get (Bison, Ostrich, Wild Boar, Elk burgers), Bareburger!”

  1. It's weird because I've never been a fan of Bareburger until I started eating at this particular location. I've gone to both the East Village and Greenwich Village restaurants, but the food was just okay. This one might be smaller in size in comparison to the others, but the burgers and fries I've gotten here are way better for whatever reason. I would recommend a salad if you're not too hungry (I like the guapo chop) and a milkshake (I'm not a huge chocolate person, but their chocolate shake is fantastic – it has dark chocolate chunks if you're into that) for an extra treat.

    The only bad experience I've had was coming here around noon on a Sunday. It seemed like everything I ordered wasn't cooked up to standards (my burger was cooked more on the rare side rather than medium and the fries tasted blander than usual) – not sure if it was because the kitchen staff wasn't fully prepared to make the food yet or because there weren't many people dining yet. I'm really hoping it was more of a one-off situation than anything else. I haven't been back since, but am optimistic it won't be a frequent occurrence.

  2. Bareburger is amazing. Reasonably priced food, inexpensive good beers, great atmosphere and great service.

    The burgers are great quality, with meats such as duck, bison, and elk making up a decent portion of the menu. They are a little smaller than normal, but reasonably priced.

    The ketchup is something that is definitely worth mentioning, and it is seasoned with something I just can't put my hands on, but it makes for a great experience.

    The beer menu isn't huge, but they have a quality listing of beers (think: Bronx Brewery, Lagunitas, Hofbrau Haus). A 20oz glass will be $6-$8, with a 34oz  Mug being only $12 or $13.
    I'll be back.

  3. I live around the corner. I didn't want to make dinner tonight, so I walked in.

    My fiancée ordered the chicken BLT with duck bacon instead of regular bacon.

    I ordered for an appetizer, the pickles and slaw. For a main course I made my burger. (Quinoa burger, duck bacon, cheddar, mustard, mushrooms.

    The burgers were excellent. Cooked well, assembled well, looked good.

    The pickles on the pickles and slaw plate were very good. The kim chi slaw tasted ok but it had was to much mayo. We didn't eat that part. Not so good and to expensive for the items received.

    Our server was very pleasant. The only complaint was the slow delivery of the burgers. Probably it was due to the crowd tonight.

    Be careful how much you order. The $$ ads up
    Quick.

    Lots of options and choices. I would go back.

  4. Ordered delivery through their website. Burger, sweet potato fries and chicken tenders.

    It arived after 1 hour 15 minutes (I live 6 minutes away).

    The boxes were cold and wet. The food was hard inside. And cold. The fries were wet. The chicken tenders were like rocks. And dry.

    The flavour of the burger was good, until I bit into a piece of gristle which was 3 inches long and 1 inch thick. No kidding. See pic. The meat was the sesame beef.

    Utterly utterly disappointed. I can only guess that the dining experience is better in person, rather than delivery, given the fantastic reviews.

  5. Went here twice. First time I had a reg beef burger with tomato/ketchup/mushroom/pickle + an order of sweet potato fries. 2nd time I had their korean beef style "burger"

    The sweet potato fries were fine. Large portion.

    Burger was very juicy. Mushrooms were excellent.

    The guy noted the second time that the Korean beef was not exactly a patty. I personally didn't mind. The taste was good though I did find a good amount of the beef to be a bit chewy so it was a bit harder to eat that burger.

    I can see why people like this mini-chain. Though it is a bit pricey.

  6. Okay I have been here 3 times already in a week time so it is time to review already ! 🙂

    SoOooOo Uniqueee, So Fresh, So organic and sooo goooood !

    Like 2 minutes walking distance to where I work so I feel blessed 🙂 The interior design is so colorful and cute. Framed animal photos on the walls are like a family tree, might make you feel like go vegan. But it is only until you get your burger on the table.

    I have tried the " Buckaroo " the first time, aged cheddar, mushrooms, beef, the bread, in such a harmony. Love it! Their draft menu is so rich. They have wine too but I have tried 3 different beer each visit and loved them all, still Ambita Amber is my favorite. I tried Supreme burger with onion rings on the top too but it was only okay compared to Buckaroo.

    The given chance to create your own burger is another reason to choose the Bareburger. They have a vegan option called " Farmstead " and it looks so different when you get it in a green wrap. I had a bite and liked it.

    The staff is quite friendly. They make sure you enjoy what you eat. There is detailed information about every single offering in the menu. They have desserts such as milk shakes and ice cream cookies.

    A lot to tell but I leave the rest of the experience to you 🙂

  7. So I came back because it was close. I ordered online and it told the order would be ready by 8:30ish. I went and they said it would be a few minutes so I stood there and waited….10 minutes went by…nothing ….then 15 more minutes. Honestly after 30 minutes I wasn't even hungry anymore!!!! I feel bad because I guess they were busy but like you can just tell me that you didn't even start to make the burger yet…..

    The manager came by and apologized (he was like I see your burger coming off the grill- SO YOU JUST STARTED TO MAKE IT !?!?!) and told me he would refund my order. I was so hungry I didn't care but thought it was a nice gesture BUT wait….that's not the end of it

    I brought it home and it was completely the wrong order. So i legit just waited like 40 plus minutes for the wrong burger….

    I gave it 2 stars instead of 1 cuz I feel that it was prob just really busy (July 4). I won't be back though..too dramatized.

  8. I realized I am very picky with hamburgers, I need good meat, good ingredients, good sides and I don`t need it to be too fancy or original. I had a lot of expectations for Bareburger, I like the fact that they use only the best ingredients, meats, grains, etc, and I really think they have a lot of different hamburgers other than the more traditional taste, and you can choose many different meats.
    The place was big and welcoming,  though it was almost empty at 11:30 on saturday (probably too early). Staff was fast to take our order and bring our food. The place was not super clean, but OK.
    My hamburger, the turkey one "Socal", was not bad for a turkey hamburger,  juicy, I loved the bread. However, the guacamole was not fresh (it was brownish in color), it was not so tasty, and I saw a small hair attached to the hamburger :/…
    My husband`s burger was better, the "supreme", more traditional with the onion rings on top.
    Overall… I know this place is famous and I respect their concept, so if I come back to NYC I might give it another try, in a different location though, I think I was maybe unlucky with my choice of burger and place that day, but clean and freshness of igredients is a MUST for any place serving food.
