Had my hopes up that this was going to be my new favorite place but alas, NO. If I want a burger served in paper I'll go around the corner to Burger King where I'll pay $4, rather than $16! Everything is ala carte, not even a little pickle came with my burger. What did I get? A sloppy mess. What I thought was their "special sauce" turned out to be globs of tasteless hummus, that I didn't even order! And to wash down all that hummus..... warm tap water served in tiny diner juice glasses! The hostess had a blank stare and was barley audible when asked about the restaurant and our waitress seemed annoyed when asked questions about the menu. All in all an overly expensive disappointment. 2 thumbs down. read more

The server was really pleasant but the food was awful. I've had my fair share of bad burgers but this was the first time I've never been able to eat a burger. The meat had a very bad smell and taste. Thankfully I ordered the highest proof beer that I shared with my mom who got pretty drunk so she finished whatever was on my plate. The group consensus was: never come here again for burgers but maybe for beer. read more

On a positive note the Brussel sprouts were very good and the folks in our party that had vegan/vegetarian burgers were pleased with their choices. Wait staff was friendly. The beef burger and the bison burger we ordered were both so overcooked you have to wonder if anyone is looking at the food leaving that kitchen. One was ordered medium and the other medium rare, both were completely dried out - no pink, no juice. Beer and wine and food for that matter ridiculously over priced for suburban NJ. This ain't NYC. read more

Bareburger never fails to disappoint!! I would give this place more than 5 stars if I could. I was so excited to see that there was a bareburger closer to me than NYC. For drinks we had an LIT, a pineapple ginger mojito, raspberry unsweetened iced tea, and strawberry hibiscus unsweetened. They were all refreshing. We started off with the crispy Brussels sprouts and berry blue salad. I've never loved Brussels sprouts so much in my life. We all had burgers except for one of us. Great quality meat. One person had a turkey burger and they said it was super flavorful. The service was phenomenal. Our waitress was attentive and the manager was walking around to make sure everything was good. I love to see that because it shows that the manager cares about your experience and is going above and beyond. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants some amazing food in a comfy atmosphere! read more

this was my first time at a bareburger and i will definitely be back. i got a build your own bareburger and my friend got plant based chicken nuggets. both meals were delicious. the staff was extremely friendly, our waitress chloe went above and beyond to serve us. would recommend this place to anyone read more

I am very happy that Bareburger opened a location in my neighborhood. I came here tonight for the first time with my family for dinner. My kids ordered off their kids menu. I ordered their onion rings and loaded fries to start. I also built my burger to order. I had the Bison burger with aged cheddar and stout onions. To wash it all down I had a strawberry milk shake. I was very satisfied with my meal. I was very impressed with the service and ambiance of the restaurant as well. I would recommend this place for families and if you want to grab a drink you can also sit at their bar and watch sports too. read more

See all

Good burgers. Has a bar and staff is friendly great place for a night out. It is a little costly for a hamburger joint.

absolutely revolting! I found dirt in my salad.. didnt know that was one of the ingredients read more

Bareburger - Didn't know dirt was one of the ingredients... absolutely revolting - Burgers Near Me - Closter, New Jersey

Really interesting place and a really good burger. I had the BBQ burger, can't think off the top of my head what was on it, but I remember it tasting great. This place is a little pricey especially for the coconut avocado shake that I got, because it was so small, but overall it was a great shake and a great burger I recommend coming here, for a date night or whatever occasion read more

Always a pleasure coming to this location. No complaints, food and drinks were great. Also, a special thank you to Isabella for the perfect wine recommendation! read more

Just ordered a Santa Fe chicken sandwich and Guadalupe veggie burger, fries and onion rings to go. Probably one of the worst take out fast food meals I have had in years if not decades. Order was ready in 10 minutes but was overcooked and cold. Had all the makings of a microwave reheated nuke job. Very disappointed and will not to back...ever read more

This was my first time at a Bareburger. I work next door and ordered online to pick up on my lunch break. Once I started it, I noticed a hair in it and brought it back to refund. They offered me a new one and they would deliver it to my work in the mall. (The employees were great and cooperative and no problems over my upset). At this point, my break was over and I couldn't eat, so I went for it when I got home. Halfway into the burger, I noticed a hair in it (once again). This was EXTREMELY disappointing since I spent over $15 on this burger. Sadly, I will not be eating here again over my fear of their lack of sanitary food making. read more

Bareburger gives options of how to build your burger which is really good. I had ordered the Bison burger which was very good while my wife ordered the standard burger which was also good. Our problem is that with only one drink two burgers and an one order of fries, the bill was $60.00. That was crazy for just burgers and fries. Even though the food and service was good the price was way out of line. read more

Tried it last year. Not a great experience. Have it another shot this evening. Still not great. Lots of bellyaches in my house.... read more

For a local burger joint, Bareburger is as good as it gets. Food is consistently good, shakes are outstanding. Waitstaff have always been very friendly and helpful. Brussel Sprouts are definitely worth trying!! read more

I'm all for quality food, and I don't mind paying more for good food. However, this location was disappointing. Our food was flavorless and not impressed with it's presentation. Felt like the orders were thrown together just looked really sloppy. read more

Prolly not the best burger I have tried but I love how they cook their fries and how they make their shake. We had the Supreme Burger with a side of Rings&Fries and an order of your customized shake. I had chocolate/banana/strawberry shake and it was delicious. I love the ambiance in here and the staff are very nice and warm. read more

Been there about 6-7 times now and have yet to be disappointed. Their lamb and duck burgers are my usual go to but when I want a change of pace I've been more than satisfied with the sliced brisket sliders and the buffalo chicken sandwich. Only negative is that as cool and rustic the decor is, the upside down lamp shades block the tv's from everywhere except the bar area. Check it out, and end with a hazelnut shake or the carrot cake! UPDATE - the duck and lamb burgers are no longer part of the menu, total mindblower! read more

Delivery for beer and food is so clutch right now. Burger temp is usually on point, great staff, management is way improved as of recently and that's what I notice from getting food delivered, not even eating in. The newer manager Angela kills it delivering and running the store. Good lookin Closter, keep it going. read more

Really good burgers and a great selection of craft beer makes this a combo that I love. It is pricey, but I will pay the price for high quality. Some of our favorites have been the Fire Quacker and Wham Bam Chicken Slam. Also if you like (or maybe if you don't like) brussel sprouts you should try the Sriracha Blue Cheese Crispy Brussels. They have a good list of rotating local craft beers as well. read more

Service is absolute horrible. Food is ok though. Have been waiting for 30 minutes for a milkshake. We walked in and a waiter didn't come over here until 15 minutes after. read more

Ordered a bacon cheeseburger with cheddar cheese, medium rare. My burger was overcooked, NO BACON, and strange looking "cheddar" cheese. The fries were ok. The burger only came with some red onion on it, every topping was extra. Did I mention NO BACON!!! Very disappointing. read more

The burger was just perfect. Excellent food and great service. Thanks Victor. I hope you will bring back the old burger options as it was great. read more

The service was a 5. The food was a 2. I ordered a plain basic burger. Nothing special. The atmosphere is pretty nice. Definitely cheaper and better places in the area. read more

AVOID. The worst service every time we go. The restaurant isn't packed yet the staff is always confused. The last and final time we went to eat there it was at 1115am. We waited an hour and finally were told that there was a mistake. We unfortunately had to leave due to time constraints so we walked out hungry. They need a new staff or they'll be closed in less than a year! read more

Bareburger is always the easiest and friendliest option for me and buddies to go to. The atmosphere in there is awesome, the food is simply spectacular and the other customers at the bar are always friendly to speak to. I would recommend this place to literally everyone. It has options for all people. Give it a try! read more

I think it's simple good and clean my burger was cooked perfect the bread was OK I'll recommend it to everybody

The service is beyond slow and inattentive, the food is ehh average at best, and the price for a burger being $12 without fries or anything else makes this place a crazy rip off. However I would recommend the River Horse Tripel Horse. Then on top of the horrible service our waiter(who was hardly serving us whatsoever) watched us while we paid to make sure we were tipping him. Would certainly not recommend this place to anyone. read more

We've been very happy with the Bareburger in Closter. I especially like the Matador. The guacamole is a great addition on a burger. The fry s are excellent, and the gluten free buns are really good (finally-for gluten free) But - save room for the flourless chocolate cake. Awesome. read more

I've been to Bareburger in Manhattan and was really excited when I saw it came to the burbs. Went on a Friday around 7, we expected it to be busy but we weren't prepared for the massive amount of children and all of the chaos. The hostess was very nice but told us it would be a 25 min wait.... we waited close to an hour for a table. The hostess said she felt so bad we waited so long she'd buy us a drink but never did... when we were finally seated we had to wait about 15 mins to have our order taken. The crispy Brussels sprouts are amazing but the service is not. read more

This place is quickly becoming one of my new favorite places to eat. I love the decor, especially the retro lamps hanging upside-down above the bar. Which is another thing I love about this place -- they serve drinks! I highly ordering recommend the crispy Brussels sprouts (make sure to squeeze some lemon on top) and the s'mores sundae. Their service is also pretty good and their manager is so sweet! I will definitely be coming back here again. read more

Great beer selection. Love the atmosphere. Good burgers and onion rings. Looking forward to trying the Brussel sprouts next time.

Nothing against this location, but personally not a fan of Bareburger overall. They have a wide variety of types of meats/vegetarian patties and toppings, however for your regular burger meat, it is not as flavorful as you would expect from a place that specializes in burgers. The burgers are juicy however. I love that they have a collard wrap for it is a healthy alternative to a bun. I also love that I can make my own burger for the ability to make those custom bun/topping choices is what makes this place good. Their fries and onion rings are also very tasty and crunchy. Inside is decorated very nice, and I love the garage door look. Overall happy to have this place in the area, although I wish corporate would improve their beef flavor. read more

My mom and I stopped for a last minute meal with my 14 month old and we had Brielle as our server. She was incredible and we came to find out it was her first day! Eating with a 14 month old is never easy, but Brielle quickly brought her meal, and informed us of all our options and made our evening awesome! Thank you to Brielle and Bareburger for a great dinner read more

Great place! Super friendly staff! Our server guided us through the menu and even helped us customize our order around my gluten allergy. I would highly recommend this place to anyone with dietary restrictions and they have a bar with gluten free beer!!! Yes beer, not cider! Although they do have that as well. read more

I'm so happy I stumbled across this place. My boyfriend and I absolutely loved this place! Everything here is organic and all natural so the prices are a little higher than what you would find at a burger joint but you are definitely getting your money's worth here. My boyfriend got the supreme burger, I got the hog wild and we shared a sharing portion of onion rings and fries which came with an assortment of tasty sauces. Our favorite was the special sauce! My boyfriends burger presentation was beautiful with 2 onion rings stacked on top of the burger. I was feeling adventurous and wanted to try something other than beef so I ordered the hog wild which came with a wild boar patty, jualepenos, a fried egg, stout onions and paprika mayo. Best burger I've had in a while! Everything just blended so well together! Now, the service..... being that it was the first time at Bareburger, the staff couldn't have been more accommodating! They explained the menu to us thoroughly, answered the ton of questions we had and even asked if there was an any allergies they had to know about so they can better accommodate us. This place is perfect for everyone with an allergy because they offer a variety of allergy free items! After we finished our meals, we were up in the air about having dessert but we saw the table next to us eating this dessert that looked amazing! Our server than informed is that it was there smooooooores dessert and insisted we try it. Hands down one of the best desserts I have ever had. It was in a mason jar type with crumbled graham crackers, vanilla and chocolate ice cream topped with marshmallow fluff. I will definitely be back and will definitely be saving room for that dessert again! read more

The beyond burger is by far the best veggie burger I've ever had. Stopped here last week after a long day and my server Francesca's upbeat personality and attentiveness was refreshing and seriously appreciated. Wonderful service and meal! read more

First the positives; attractively decorated (although chairs are not very comfortable) friendly staff and ample parking. Milkshake was very good. Negatives (no particular order) - highly overpriced for what you receive. Onion rings were almost all breading, were over-cooked and flavorless. Burger, while perfectly cooked to my med-rare request, was dry and meat not flavorful. The bun/burger ratio awful as the bun was small and could not hold up to the ingredients. While nothing was truly horrible, there are many other high-end burger options available, therefore I do not see myself returning. read more

Received a gift card for Christmas so figured we'd put it to quick use. All in all had a very nice meal. Pretty neat ambiance in the place and the service was great. I wish I remembered our server's name because she was fantastic and on point. We each had a burger and the only reason I am giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because the Bison burger I had was bland. But I don't think that is the restaurant's fault. We each had a shake that was really good as well. Will definitely be back for a quick afterwork burger and beer! read more

Very nice place and wonderful option for lunch or an evening bite and a drink. Rustic, warm and friendly. Burgers are very well prepared and there are many varieties from which to select. Fries rock. Good options for tasty beer to accompany those burgers. Want to return and try out some other options. read more
