| - More of a 3.5/5.
Visited Bareburger September 21st with 2 others. I've passed by this place very often as I live in the area, and I thought their decor looked very interesting. After seeing their ratings on Yelp, I was looking forward to trying it out. As a former vegan/vegetarian, and someone who tries to buy organic as much as possible, this place really embodied that wholesome-organic-grassfed vibe.
Beverages: Being lactose-intolerant, I was psyched to get a milkshake - something I've never had - as they offer mikshakes with coconut ice-cream and rice milk. The chocolate-banana milkshake was good, thick, and creamy, everything you'd want in a milkshake, at least I assume. My acquaintances both got the (regular) choc-peanut butter option, which was apparently very good as well.
Food: We all got the build-a-burger option. I got the quinoa patty on a sprout bun,with my choice of toppings, and the patty was probably one of the better quinoa patties I've had. The size of the burger is decent, probably around the same size as a The Works burger. Unlike most burger joints, sides aren't included here as a meal. The 3 of us shared a side of fries, which were fine and nothing to rave about.
Service: This place would get 4 or 5 stars if not for the service. Our server was pretty rude even though we were nothing but pleasant guests. She slammed my milkshake down on the table. When the burgers arrived, I had my hands on the table. Instead of most servers who sort of announce the food before placing it down, she kind of just semi-shoved my hands out of the way to make room for the tray. It also took forever for us to get her attention and get our bills once we were done eating.
*Also, for those with celiac or serious gluten allergies: although a lot of the items on the menu are labelled gluten-free, they do state that they don't have strict contamination control when it comes to handling gluten & gluten-free items.
