Stumbled upon Bareburger while visiting Brooklyn- great happy hour options! During our meal, my friend had a medical emergency and the staff/management were amazing, responsive, and supportive! Management went out of their way to make sure we were okay and comped part of our bill (unnecessary but very appreciated!!) While the food and drinks were great, the staff and environment would also be a reason to frequent if we lived in the area. Highly recommend!

Not the quality or quantity it used to be. 3 onion rings... I mean.... for a surcharge... ?? Smashing burger was juicy but missing the crisp edge hallmark. Eh.

Response from the owner

Hi Kat,<br><br>Thanks for taking the time to give us this feedback. We're disappointed we didn't meet your expectations this time around. We've taken your comments on board and hope to welcome you back.<br><br>Best,<br>The Bareburger NY-Cobble Hill team

Ordered two burgers medium but they came so well done we couldn’t eat them past a few bites. Dry and overdone :/

Response from the owner

Hey Darcy,<br><br>Yeah looks well done and unfortunately the burger cooks in its own juices while traveling. <br><br>We do hope that you give us another shot, come on in, sit with us and let’s get it right for you. <br>

Billy was our server and was probably the best server I’ve ever had. He was quick to take orders, informative, and very attentive to the needs of the table. The onion rings were also a 10/10

Response from the owner

Hi Nathanael Gilbert,<br><br>Thanks for taking the time to leave us a wonderful review. Yes, Billy is wonderful!! We will be sure to pass the message along to him! <br>We're glad you enjoyed yourselves and look forward to welcoming you back soon!<br><br>The Bareburger NY-Cobble Hill team

I’m an avid bare burger fan, and I haven’t yet dined at the Cobble Hill location but this was by my far my favorite experience yet. The restaurant was quite understaffed with just Billy checking people in & out, making drinks, serving all guests food and being highly attentive.<br><br>It was quite something to observe, he was in a flow state and the environment felt thoughtful and friendly. Definitely returning, thank you again for walking me through the menu and giving me recommendations! I should’ve taken a photo when I had the chance.

Response from the owner

Hey Alberto<br><br>Sound like you had a blast and Billy made sure you had a great time with great food, drinks and overall a memorable time. <br><br>Thank you for the 5 stars and the amazing review. <br><br>We are glad you enjoyed your time with us and hope to see you again.

Dinner week of Feb 15-18 for 3 for $75: frustrating mediocre 3 Burgers some of which were seemingly just reheated, 1 tiny Cal slaw not chopped up consistently with chunks of cabbage core, 1 tiny precooked overdone Yam Potatoes tiny portion Fries (smaller than McDonald's Kids), 1 10 oz cup milkshake, no aioli or herb mayo with dill or anything fancier than just regular mayo & ketchup). All served on stranger than even unhealthy for any food consuming plastic melamine plates and plastic trays for hot hamburgers (pretty sure Melamine plastic Plates if in dishwasher or when in contact with warmer food would give one cancer and ideally Restaurateur would consider upgrading from Cancer causing Melamine Plates to regular cafeteria disposable Paper Plates or paper boats like in McDonald's or Metal Food Grade Trays like those at Shake Shack or Burger Heaven not expensive regular good Hamburger near 53rd and Lexington Avenue in Manhattan NY (where similar but much better with healthy vegetables instead of fries would cost you $40 a week prior), or other normal Restaurants with proper Dinner plates like the cheapest ones from Dollar store for Home use would be much better for our Health and environment). Recycling brown Napkins were environmentally friendly, but could have been with BareBurger Logo imprinted for fussy people to alert them of the Restaurant they had their meal from, as well as others who want to get a free extra Napkin. Real Metal Knives and forks were a pleasant surprise at this place as well as a decent bathroom. Sadly no Real SPINACH in Bun Replacement low Carb option (we got the cheapest sadly soggy looking like "I am the legend" survivor mediocre flower wrap instead of Real Spinach leaves and Lettuce was offered as 3 extra tiny leaves instead of a Burger Bun we wanted to avoid on one of our Burgers with extra veggies (4 tiny slices of mushrooms, 1/4 of onion and 1 pickle and 2 slices of Jalapeno was $15 + $3 extra for mushrooms with tiny 6-8 oz looking patty precooked and reheated before put in the flour tortillas wrap of cheapest kind worse than Bodegas and in my hamburger I encountered 4 not chewable small bites of what they take out of the meat grinder and throw it out not even giving these rough links to cats or dogs and I never had these things even in Bodega made fresh in front of you Hamburgers or Burger King or McDonald's or at home frozen Burger Patties). No Hot Water option or tea with such food on a cold winter time would help you quickly realize, even next door McDonald's or further 5 min Shake Shack would be a dream come true significantly better options with 3 extra healthy salads and a giant meal for 5 people instead what we got. One condolence was a milk shake (even though unhealthy to be served after an Iron rich Hamburger Meals)... Unhealthy no Hot Water with the meal for proper digestive system health makes me realize it's not kid's friendly. So called Restaurateurs who have this place may have hire rustic decor designer and tried to add large TV on the wall with silent Basketball College games. But the service for takeout constantly made one of inattentive servers kick the door open for a long time to let freezing air hit us for 2-4 min at a time when he went outside while deliberately keeping the door open wide to let guests feel unwelcome and frozen inside the place (first in a lifetime for someone older than College age to realize that No Hot Water with the Meal (instead of Cold Ice Water for those who want Gal Bladdder surgery later on in life from indigestion caused by cold food and on the go improper cheap bodega sandwich experience) and it should have been the sign for us to hit the door running somewhere else like even McDonald's right around where at least the Food Culinary School standard should apply with better Health Standards). BareBurger so called Restaurant was Below my Below Minimum Hamburger Meal standard of Burger King or McDonald's (but it's overpriced like hell, although with confusing very difficult to find topping choices).

I have gone to the Bareburger in Brooklyn, Court Street on several occasions and always consistent. This particular Bareburger is by far the best. It is always fresh and always delicious. I have to say Billy, the owner takes pride in what he does keeping Bareburger clean and always on point. His drinks are incredible. I have to say my closet location is in Astoria but Court Street is by far the best. It is definitely worth going to Court Street, believe me you will see and taste the difference.

I ordered a beef burger because I'm allergic to pork, and I waited 40 minutes, only to be surprised by cold fries as well. A friend sent me here, and I came all the way from the west side of Manhattan to try it, but unfortunately... Good luck, guys

Response from the owner

Hey Hamada,<br><br>Sorry to hear that your experience with us wasn’t what you expected and definitely not what we wanted for you. <br><br>

I am coeliac and I never thought I would be able to have Fried chicken again however here I was included and was able to have a lovely meal. Our server was Billy and he was so lovely he reassured me I was completely safe and he was easy to chat to as well. I could not recommend this place enough definitely have to come here if you’re in nyc. P.S you NEED to try the tomato sauce it phenomenal.

Response from the owner

The fries were diviiiiiiine. I’d go here for drinks and fries but I personally would skip the burger. I ordered the standard med-well. The meat had a weird tang to it I wasn’t used to (maybe bc it’s organic?) and it wasn’t as juicy as I like my burgers. Just my opinion though, the other person I was with loved his Elk burger. The service was stellar though! And I’ll definitely be back for the fries.

Response from the owner

Hey Jay Cee,<br><br>We appreciate the stars! We are overjoyed to know that you had a good time trying us out. Come back soon and we will be more than happy to serve you again!<br><br>Best,<br>The Bareburger Team

This burger place was amazing. So quiet and peaceful. Grabbed a quick lunch with my partner and we enjoyed every bite of our burger. They use organic ingredients which is a plus for us as we use organic at home. I had a Soco and my partner had a chicken sandwich. Review the photos below I promise you won’t regret eating here!
