I never needed to shop for a dairy-free birthday cake before and didn't realize how challenging it could be. I found some recommended bakeries that would have taken me over an hour drive (/r LongIsland), but i decided to give BNB Plainview a shot. I called and asked about the dairy-free selection and they were incredibly helpful. Encouraged, I swung by during my lunch break and was very impressed with their dairy-free selection. Didn't realize that their entire menu was gluten free and tree-nut free (I have n=1 friend who would have appreciated this). I also liked that they separated the vegan and non-vegan items (we were fine with eggs so went non-vegan). The same person I spoke with on the phone greeted me and I went with her recommendation of the non-vegan chocolate mousse cake. While waiting, I had a gluten-free multigrain bagel (toasted) with cream cheese. It was really good! I was pretty shocked because I expected it to taste like cardboard to be honest. Now the mousse cake. I held my breath as the birthday girl ate the first bite. She loved it! Guess what. I loved it too! Well if I ever need a nut free, gluten free, or vegan baked good, I can take a short drive to Plainview for BNB. I may also return for a bagel. read more

As a gluten free eater, this place is such a nice find! I gift their desserts to my other gf friends or I'll buy a box of treats for family gatherings. Staff is so nice too! Lovely place read more

Had lunch there today! Ordered pizzas, & their grilled cheese with "f"Acon! The pizzas were 10/10 not really a fan of vegan cheese that doesn't really melt and the cheese in my grilled cheese was not fully melted ...but the service was great! Ended up my meal with a vanilla chai iced latte which I will recommended 10/10!!! Was such a fatty for the pizza I didn't even take pictures but definitely will be retuning for breakfast ! Next time ... We sat outside super cute seating for a quick lunch date ! The wait was a bit long so I would suggest to order ahead if you can! But that's simply because eveything is made to order which I can appreciate ! Couldn't resist to get some "take home goodies" read more

2nd time coming back to this gluten-free/nut-free/dairy-free bakery in Plainview, NY, Long Island. So worth the trip, but yet so dangerous for us. They have so many choices, and they ACTUALLY have gluten-free onion bagels, and they're ACTUALLY good. 1st time being there. We sat down for brunch. No table service. Have to order from the counter. - My fiancé's got an onion bagel egg sandwich with pesto and a single pancake. - Vegan chicken with waffles and a side of fries. Brought home some goodies as well. 2x Focaccia Bread [so good] perfect for mini sliders 3x Onion Bagels Tiramisu bar 2nd time being there. Ordered 3x onion bagels. Yes it's that good we came back for more Cinnamon Sugar Bagel Chicken pot pie Chocolate cigar. To dry 3x Soft Pretzels Challah Bread Banana chocolate bread. Sooo freaky delicious It's a little bit on the pricey side, but it's worth it. Definitely going back. read more

Delicious cake! The dairy-free cream cheese frosting was just 'fine', as the texture and taste was more American buttercream, but the cake and chocolate mousse filling was fantastic. Ordered ahead for my teen's b-day as we were touring colleges on LI from out of state. Picked up a couple treats to eat in the car as well. Wish we lived closer! read more

Order here on line on 12/12 for 12/24. They told me they were going to deliver by ups i confused since I live in the same town. Email twice no answer.

Although they seem to still be getting their footing, Bare Naked Bakery is really a great spot to try for anyone with vegan or gluten free restrictions. The food is surprisingly good and the fact that there are SO many options is a huge plus. The same woman has been working the counter every time I've gone and she's been very helpful when customers are unsure about their choices. The restaurant itself is okay for sitting down but this is definitely more grab and go. The prices are pretty high, but I've come to expect that for vegan food. So all in all, this is more of a splurge for me. read more

I came in here because I wanted to compare it to the location in Bellmore which I go to more often. I was delighted to learn that the bagels are vegan because I've been gluten free for a long time due to having a sensitivity to it but recently I also decided to go vegan. I got the breakfast burrito with tofu. It was pretty good, on the small side but still really good and filling. I like both of the Bare Naked locations and appreciate visiting them once in awhile. read more

A tad overpriced but ok for what you get. Little black and white cookies are a good flavor and chewy texture but probably because they are gluten free (still good). The mousse cake was not good. Too little mousse and too much cake. Chocolate cigar, on the other hand, is fantastic. Kid working the counter was helpful and nice. I'd return. Nice selection. read more

Great nut free bakery! A few kids in my son's classroom have allergies to eggs, milk, and nuts this bakery had cupcakes that were baked without those ingredients so they were perfect vegan cupcakes! I called a few other places that needed a few days notice to bake them but this bakery had them readily available. They also taste delicious which was a huge plus! read more

They get 3 stars for actually having gluten free dairy free, but free desserts but I tried two of them the carrot cake and the moose cake and they were not good . The carrot cake was way too spicy. You couldn't really enjoy the dessert and the moose cake was just very blah tasting . I would give them another chance and try some others . read more

I love all the food and i love how it is all gluten free. I just wish they had some locations in nj. The service was good and would definitely come her again. read more

Went there for this first time the other day and was pleasantly surprised! The everything bagel with dairy free cream cheese was SO flavorful and somehow they were able to create a GF bagel that didn't taste like cardboard! The only confusing thing was that the store had moved two stores down so just be aware that sign overhead is not where the bakery is. They do have a paper sign on the window. read more

Love this bakery! Lots of vegan options and everything is gluten free!! I wish they have a branch closer to the east side of Long Island though... no dine in yet when we went there.. maybe soon...I got the vegan chocolate stick which was sooooo goood!! We also got the vegan double chocolate chip cookie which was just ok...I'm wondering if they will ever have vegan and gluten-free pancakes in their menu.. and curly fries.. I don't see fries in the menu.. hopefully soon..but We'll be back .. for sure.. can't wait to try the bean burgers! read more

Yes I bought a vegan cake and I'm definitely interested in returning and buying another one .. it was good and my taste testers agreed

Bought gluten free cakes and soup for the holiday and it was inedible. And so expensive.

I don't have a complain about the actual taste of the cake, but the presentation was terrible, Couldn't believe what I got and what I ordered. i send i email after the fact to them to make them aware of the situation and never got a response. terrible customer service.I would never use them again for my events. read more

Do NOT eat here. Ordered a Vegan BLT. House made bacon was too tough to chew. Took 1 bite & took it back. Was advised I couldn't be refunded but could have store credit. I have not had an experience this distasteful Ever. $20 gone for too bad to eat. read more

Have to say I have been to several gluten free bakeries in the past and have really not liked them much. I went into Bare Buns Bakery and got a chocolate brownie and everything bagel. I have to say the everything bagel was the best I have ever had, Totally amazing last and super fresh. The brownie was good but, To be honest i could tell from the taste it was gluten free. The brownie was considerably better than other gluten free that i have had in the past. The selection in my eyes was a bit thin not a lot to choose from. I would definitely go back again for a bagel but I do not think i would get any of the pastries again. The man behind the counter was very friendly and helpful and extremely nice. To me customer service is always number one and this person exceeded my expectations. I would give the service and the bagel 5 stars but the brownie 3 stars. read more

The only reason this place is getting three stars is due to the taste of the vegan chocolate cake I bought, which was pretty good. The downfall was the appearance of the cake and the inconvenience of having to go to the location twice! The initial visit was to find a vegan, chocolate cake. The cake was a decent size, so all I wanted was a "Happy Birthday Tiffany" written on it. The associate asked if she could put a birthday sign on top instead of writing it. I told her I'd prefer it to be personalized. She said no problem and took the cake to the back. I even told her she can shorten it to "Happy B-Day Tiff" because of how small the space was. She came back out, but didn't show me how it looked and I didn't bother to ask (which I should have). After driving for only 5 minutes, my coworker decided to open the box to take a look at the cake. The writing on the cake was horrendous. It was completely illegible and sloppy. She even left some icing on the decorative part of the cake. It was like she used an attachment that had a wide opening. I needed the cake that same day, but I didn't have time to drive back because I had to get back to work. Once I got out of work, I drove straight to the bakery and requested the writing to be done over. The same associate suggested to use the birthday sign because they didn't have an icing attachment with a smaller opening. I said no problem and I waited there for about 15 mins because she said the chocolate needed to dry. Once she got the cake from the back, she showed it to me and I approved its appearance. Once I got home and was ready to sing happy birthday, the cake was a complete mess. The chocolate and the sign slid from the middle to the edge of the cake. It was embarrassing to have my sister see her cake in this condition. Overall, the cake was delicious. The bakery just needs associates that are experienced and well informed about simple tasks. Maybe I will take a visit to the Bellmore location, but certainly not Plainview. read more

Delicious treats that are just so fresh, soft and scrumptious. Can't wait to go back!! Great treat for yourself or a loved one.

Save your money folks. Got a 4 pack of burger buns & a 4 pack of bagels. Over $18! Burger roll fell apart like styrofoam and tasted about the same. Bagels were....edible but I'll never go back at these prices I expect way better quality. read more

Super cute and convenient location. Breakfast was super slow to come out and served on cheap paper plates in no particular order (members of the group waited longer while others were finishing). Pancakes were mushy, chicken wrap was soggy and nothing had any flavor. Bakery items were "meh" definitely not as good as we were hoping and not worth the price. read more

I was visiting Long Island for work and always look for gluten free options. I came across this bakery and decided to try it out. I'm so glad I did. I got an assortment of pastries, bagels, and a loaf of Mock Rye Bread. I haven't had rye since being diagnosed with celiac disease 12 years ago. The bread was more than I could ask for. Tasted just like rye and is amazing toasted. You couldn't even tell the pastries were gluten free. The tiramisu was out of this world. I will absolutely be purchasing more online in the future. Also, the service was top notch. The girl at the counter was very helpful and we chatted about Pennsylvania for a bit. Wish I would have gotten her name because she deserves a shout out. read more

Wow!! I was so happy to find a vegan friendly spot on door dash and now I'm disgusted. First, a woman from the bakery called me and let me know they didn't have facon that I purchased $3.00 extra for. I told her that's fine and I will get a refund. She said "so you still want the food?" I mean yeah..... Anyway, the dasher comes with the food and she was very nice. The tofu sandwich smelled strange but I opened it up and woah it's neon. What is this? I took a bite and ugh disgusting. I cannot eat this. I took a sip of my smoothie to wash it down. Even worse! I never had a smoothie so terrible tasting!!! Vegan food does not taste like this so please if anyone wants to try vegan food do not come here! read more

I don't know what I just ate. We started with the gluten free bagel chips that may have been sitting on the shelf for months -- inedible. We had to throw out the bag of chips ($7) I ordered a simple grilled cheese sandwich for my daughter and it 1. took forever 2. came out as 2 pieces of bread with orange sliced cheese on each side-not even melted. I returned it because I just couldn't accept it as a grilled cheese. They were out of fries to go with the grilled cheese so we got Doritos -- those were great! read more

All Kosher, vegetarian and gluten free, as well as many items are completely dairy free also. Breakfasts, lunches and early dinner. And some super looking desserts and nice workers. However, the coffee was not very good. (They would benefit from using a local and fresh coffee roaster like Giorgio's in Farmingdale) read more
