Me and my 2 friends stopped by Bareburger for some food and drinks around 9 pm. Restaurant was pretty empty so we got a table immediately. We ordered alcohol and waitress and bartender had no idea what captain Morgan and Coca Cola was, weird! We order appetizer macho fries and that was good. We each order burgers and those were good too. We asked for soda with our food and we had to remind waitress to bring the soda a couple times. Also there is as no silverware on table. After the burgers we order dessert. Shakes were very good. Then we asked for the check and as we were reviewing the check a maggot fell from ceiling and onto myself. Looking above there was a AC duct so maybe it came from there. We showed the waitress and she said she would let her manager know. The manager never came over to apologize or inquire about said maggot. The is 2nd time I've gone to Bareburger and the first time we were told they were closing early and we never got a table. This time a maggot fell on me! How much worse can it get. Really disappointed about how the manager neglected to check on us at all. read more

This was my 3rd time at this location and did take out. First two times I liked it. 3rd time was definitely not a charm. Told us food was going to be ready in 15 minutes and it took over an hour. Was with 2 kids and they didn't even offer a drink of water while we waited. I guess the staff has been in restaurant biz too long. Bartender had an attitude problem. Got food home which was 5 minutes away and everything was cold. Order was screwed up too. Manager was nowhere to be found to apologize. read more

THE GRINDHOUSE WAS SICK!!! also, their shakes are fantastic! Oh! And you gotta get a side of them onion rings! Come check it out, man! read more

Very disappointing :( : ( ..... We finally came here during the middle of the day because the line has been out the door every night. We were seated right away. We both got the Supreme - mine medium, my wife medium rare. After ordering it took almost exactly 30mins for our food to arrive. Good thing we didn't have somewhere to go right away!! Quality of food: My burger: Arrived well-done, not medium. My wife's burger: Medium, not medium-rare. Both burgers: on the dry side and not hot enough, like they were sitting on the counter for a while. Sweet potato fries: Tasted good but again not hot! The waitress was MIA until we were almost done. She finally came by when we were nearly done and asked us how the food was, she seemed upset. Came back 10mins later and asked us if the manager came over - he never did. When we left the manager was chatting with the waitresses and texting. Sorry BareBurger - You lost us as customers!!! read more

We've been here once before and everything was delicious and we had good service. When we came back with some friends we had some issues with the service and our order being messed up. The food is still delicious, but too many mistakes to get it right. My glass of wine was wrong. I received a white instead of a red. My friend didn't get her drink for 10-15 minutes and only because we asked for it. They were out of wild boar so I switched to beef on my burger but it was supposed to come with chickpea onions and grilled pineapple. The waiter never asked how I wanted the beef cooked either The burger came with onion rings (not chickpea and no pineapple. I sent it back saying it wasn't the right burger. The waiter finally came over and said it was the right burger but they also ran out of pineapple (no mention of the onions). He never once checked on our meal otherwise and didn't offer any money off besides bringing the burger back out that he insisted was correct. I think overall they are new and the service needs to get sorted but al the apps and everyone else's meals were still good. read more

This is a copy of what I sent Bear Burger several times with no response. My wife just picked up an order where everything was TERRIBLE. We paid $48.94 and frankly we should be refunded the ENTIRE amount. My daughter order buttermilk chicken bites. She got buffalo. She was hungry so she tried to eat them. She is currently in the bathroom losing her dinner. My wife and I had toppings on our burgers that we expressly asked be held. The sweet potato fries were burned. Calling 5 or 6 pieces of zucchini fries "shareable" is a joke; especially for that price. My burger was so salty that I feel ill. As I am writing this, I feel the urge to run to the bathroom. My stomach is gurgling like crazy. We ordered from the Plainview location at 399 South Oyster Bay Rd. The only thing they got right was cutting my wife's burger in half. I can accept a mistake or two, but besides getting ill, I am angry to lay out nearly $50 and be so dissatisfied. read more

Went there recently on a Saturday afternoon. After figuring out the menu we ordered and to make a long story short, after sending the burger back two times I gave up on them being able to cook it to temperature - medium. Each time it was well done or almost well done. On top of that I ordered a french fry side dish and was given/charged for an appetizer portion. All in all we had mediocre food and service at extremely high prices. Needless to say will not be returning. read more

So glad Bareburger came to the Plainview community as a plainview resident. The service was very good as was the food. Went on a Tuesday after noon and the waitress I had was very knowledgeable . I told her exactly what I wanted and she gave us great suggestions as it was or first time their. Will be coming back very soon ! Thanks for a great experience read more

Not even close to the place it used to be! Negative stars should be an option. We started coming to this location a couple of years ago and it was amazing. They had many, unique burger options and lots of great apps and shares. The service was on point as well. Sadly, this is no longer the case. The menu has gotten smaller and smaller and they no longer have the amazing, protein options of the past. (If you're a vegan, you'll probably be happy with the change). The service is abysmal now. We went for a Sunday brunch and it was a beyond terrible experience. First, it took about 45 minutes for them to make waffles because of some machine malfunction in the back ( they probably should have informed us of that when the order was placed), when it finally arrived the chicken and waffles, that was supposed to be "tossed" in sauce, came on a plate that looked as though half a bottle of buffalo sauce was dumped in it. When we asked to have it sent back the manager was not apologetic, was irritated that we had an issue with it and told us that people eat it that way all the time. We pointed out the disparity between the menu description and what we got and she snottily told us that's the way it comes and begrudgingly took it back. We were reluctant to order waffles again and she said that they didn't have the machine problem and they were ready to go. Then they told us it would take 15 minutes to make.....waffles! My cheapo kitchen waffle maker at home pops them out quicker. Words can't adequately express how nasty, rude and unprofessional their morning manager is. Never going back. read more

Just had a great lunch, always good. Try their new boar burger. It's really good!

I do not give many 1 star reviews but after my experience the other day it just has to be done. While I do LOVE the interior decoration and the strive to be more environmentally friendly with the construction materials of this first of its kind design, it all means nothing if the quality of the food doesn't stand up to the brand. I have been to many other Bareburger locations many times and have always had nothing bad to say, actually I have always raved to all my friends and family about it. This time was wayyy different. I called in my order since I figured it would be packed as it recently opened and was told 25 minutes for pickup, no problem. We placed an order for two blue elk burgers, medium rare, an order of onion rings and a combo order of fries and onion rings. Where to start... First of all, we picked up the food exactly at the time they said to come, it is a 3 minute ride back to our office, these burgers were cold... not even a little warm. The second huge complaint is that when you order a burger medium rare, you do not expect it to come well done. The burger was dry, flavorless and just tough to eat. While sometimes you get a bad meal, its extremely hard to stomach when you are paying $13 for a burger, it should be perfect every time! It really is a shame bc the other components of the burger were very good but with a dry flavorless hockey puck attached it's pointless. The fries were very good and it's a shame the onion rings weren't seasoned well at all bc they looked awesome but fell way short on flavor profile. While this location recently opened and that may be a reason that the food was way sub par, there is no excuse to charge the price for a burger when the quality is lacking. If i were you and reading this review I would wait until they have their operation in order and their cooks know what they are doing. I will certainly hesitate to return to this location as will my coworkers. read more

Totally annoyed with Bareburger. A friend told me Bareburger opened recently and I wanted to try it. After a long day at work, I drove in the rain to Bareburger in hopes of getting a good cheeseburger. I walked in, it was busy but it wasn't crazy packed. I told the hostess I was there to place a takeout order and she said sometimes they do takeout but they weren't doing takeout right now because it's too busy. WTF? I can understand if a business is new and they aren't set up for takeout yet but to tell me you aren't doing takeout because it's too busy is pretty lame. I asked when they will have takeout available and she didn't really give me an answer, so whatever! Judging by some of the other reviews I see, perhaps it was a blessing in disguise and I saved my money! read more

Great burgers here, always made the way you ordered. The fries are good, the cole slaw is good. There hasnt been any complaints in our party. Ive been there 3 times. Will def. Go back. read more

My husband and I have been a frequent visitor of the Bareburger franchise. We have been to the locations in Astoria, Bayside and Great Neck. We were very excited to find that one had opened next to our town in Plainview. We went this past Saturday night and were quoted as a 30 minute wait time and that turned out to be an hour. Once seated, we ordered drinks and an appetizer. However, the drinks came several minutes after our appetizer. Upon finishing our meal, we chose to pay via credit card. Our waiter came and took the credit card and we didn't see him again. After about 10 minutes, we contacted the hostess to see where the waiter was with our credit card. A few minutes later, a different waiter came to our table and explained that our credit card was used to pay for someone else's meal. He then said our credit card as credited and charged with our correct meal. Not one time did a manager come to us to explain the situation nor did we receive a receipt for the credit put back on our card. We also never saw our original waiter again. Based on this experience, I don't think Bareburger will be seeing us again. read more

This place is a dump and looks like freight containers on a cargo ship. What a shame to do that to a nice neighborhood. Food is mediocre at best, don't waste your time or money. Burgerfi is much better! Would give it less than 1 star if I could. read more

Came here for a breakfast date because free pancakes on the weekend! Loved them and the service was good too! Just the right amount of friendly and enough balance for my and the date to have a nice conversation alone. I think I found my fave breakfast spot! Definitely coming back for pancakes! read more

This placed used to have a great unique menu, but they've recently made menu changes and the food is not good. Also, the service is regularly slow. Every time I have a call on order I end up being ignored and then waiting. Not recommended. read more

Tried 3 types of burgers and 2 other appetizers and not one of them was good. Tapioca rice bun is a joke! The bread fails to stay together and fell apart with just patty n a leaf inside. It was so dry that no amount of sauce could make it taste it better! The sweet potato fries were raw inside. Duck burger (fire quacker) was smelly meat. Buffalo chicken sandwich could have been ok but then abused use of buffalo sauce inside made it inedible ! Make my burger costs $8.90 but everything in it costs extra! The sauce costs $.55 ?? Really ? Save yourself a bad experience and yes some money and have smash burger or a chick fil-a ! read more

My wife and I were quite excited to go back to Baregurger, since we haven't been to Bareburger in a long time. Our last time was in the Queens location. We were seated right away, and a gentleman brought us water rather quickly, but our waitress didn't make an appearance for almost 10 minutes. Once she came, she apologized and continued with our order. Our not so crispy and still hard "Crispy" Brussel Sprouts came out with our Sweet Potato Fries. A few minutes later our drinks followed. The sprouts were hard enough that we gave up on them. The Sweet potato fries were good but not great. My wife's, County Fair and my Blue Elk both wrapped in Collard Greens, finally came out, warm but not hot. Both Burgers were dry and we were not asked how we liked the burgers during the ordering process. My wife liked her burger but in her words "It was good, but not $12 good." My burger was ok but not great. For the $50 we spent, it was definitely not a worth while meal. Getting the check took another 10 minutes even after she cleared off the table. Compared to Brooklyn they were missing a few things on the menu, like the ostrich burger. Maybe they should have left well enough alone, but my next Bareburger trip will be back to Queens as in my opinion Plainview is still no where on par. Service ** Price ** Food ** read more

The food was tasty however my boyfriend ordered a medium rare burger which came back borderline well done, I had the farmstead which was good but super small portions for the price tag. Long wait as well about 30 minutes. Won't go back most likely but glad i tried it.its also worth mentioning I ordered a Bloody Mary and even though they have a full bar wouldn't serve me one because it wasn't the right time of day... Lol wtf? Anytime is the right time for a bloody. read more

Bad service! Oh, and please don't say you are still training your waitstaffs because it's all about attitudes, which they don't have any. So it was my fault I overlooked yelpers' reviews. Because they were right, the waitstaffs here don't know what "service" is. It was one of the worst experiences I've had at a restaurant, or at least within the past 6 months. If you want to tip a waitstaff who throws a straw at you, by all means, you should go. But I did warn you. read more

I ate at this wonderful location last Friday. What a great place. The food is so good. It suits all kinds of food preferences. The chair I was sitting on had jagged wooden edges, so my brand new exercise pants were torn in many places. All I had to do was tell the manager, Sergio Robles. He promptly removed the chair & asked for details. By Wednesday a new pair of those pants that he had ordered arrived at my home! Wow! What an outstanding manager! No haggling, just sincere concern for his customers & staff. Thank you to everyone who facilitated this in such a seamless way! read more

Not a big fan of the burgers. Too dry. Love the salads. Hudson is my go to, whenever I end up here

From the slow service to the surprisingly small portions for the high prices - this place was very disappointing. The space itself is nice but is exceedingly small and there is no place to wait for a table. First impressions are important in this area and I, for one, will not be returning. read more

I had a bacon cheese burger and it was pretty tasty but what I really loved was their onion rings...so crispy but not greasy at all! I swear it's dipped in quinoa flour or something. It's addictive! read more

Bareburger isn't perfect. I've been to two of the Manhattan locations before they started expanding like wildfire (good luck w/ that, guys). They weren't perfect, either. Yes, we waited forever for this location. It's my understanding that had as much to do with the Town and the County than it did Bareburger (thanks, Mangano). Whatever, it's open now. This place is jumping. Look, if it were terrible - it wouldn't be so crowded. What did Yogi say? That place is so crowded, no one goes there anymore? Right. I didn't even come close to the place until at least a week after open. If you're looking to sit and stay, bring patience. Chaos reigns, though food flies out of the pass like there's a wind behind it. Here's what I've done three times now, and I gotta say, while I'm not blown away, I ain't mad: Do pickup, and CALL AHEAD. Even if the phone rings and rings, wait. Even if it sounds like WWIII on the other end, be patient. You'll be given a time, like 20 mins (probably more for a bigger order). Add 10 mins, show up then. You'll have your food within 5 mins. Not every burger at BB is a winner, though many are. Don't go comparing to places like Dirty Burger. Yes BB is expensive, but you get what you pay for. You want cheap eats? Go stare at the red & white tiles at 5 Guys (that place feels like Costco). As BB is in Plainview (near the dreaded ShopRite), haters gonna hate and they will hate with the passion of a thousand hates. So keep that in mind. Try this place. Make your own judgements. I really like it, though it's not good enough that it will replace Morrison's. If you haven't been to Morrison's yet, try them first. They have the better beer menu, anyway (and besides, both of my kids' names are chalked on the bricks there). One final though - the Hot Honey shake at BB is one of the best things I have ever consumed. Ever. read more

I probably would not have sought out an ostrich sandwich, but when my coworker picked this place for his birthday lunch, it became a favorite. The food is well flavored and well portioned. The staff are friendly. The facility is a little tight during rush our, but it has a cute repurposed look. read more

Bareburger - Plainview - FireQuacker burger (duck) - New American Near Me - Plainview, New York

See all

If you're looking for a simple burger that's not soggy. I repeat, not soggy burger. This is the place. They've got a build your own option you can attack and sip your favorite beers while chowing down. They focus on healthy options so that's an added bonus. I did the Fire Quacker. Spicy Duck Burger. Crushed it. Loved the experience! Gotta check out the photos on the walls as well. read more

Looks like a fun and quirky little burger joint, but beware! Went with a party of 3 and didn't see my food until after everyone else had finished eating. The manager had to practically go in the back and make it herself, all the while we never saw our waiter more than about 3 times: first to order, second when my food never came, and finally when we were ready to pay. Also the soda is "home made" so it tasted like other places when they run out of syrup and it tastes like cat pee. The one star is for the fact that they comped me on my super late meal. read more

Ross the bartender was distracted and non attentive to a somewhat busy bar. He was on his cellphone having a conversation after our plates were cleared while we waited for our bill. Food was great, but this is the second time I had poor service at the bar. read more

Here's a burger place with options! You can't beat an environment-friendly, eco-conscious burger place (which is kind of ironic, I suppose, but I digress). I like that there are a few vegetarian burger options, and the pickle-trio appetizer is delish. The beers are good too. Nothing that will knock you off your socks, but it is good food that hits the spot. read more

Dont expect to go back. For the very expensive price burgers one could almost say are tiny. The fries were totally soggy and the rings were all breading. For the life of me cant understand why this chain has a buzz. Nice looking place - but food is what counts read more

Small portions, terrible service took 45 minutes to make 2 burgers and fries. Don't waste your time or money!

Ordered a salad which had a fried Egg in it and egg was cold. We waited for over 30 minutes for 3 hamburgers and French fries. When we got them finally, they were cold. It wasn't even busy in there tonight. It will be a while before I give them another shot. read more

Alright here we go.. I love cheese burgers and when I heard of bare burger I thought hey! An organic burger that is made to order doesn't get any better than that. Needless to say I was so disappointed.. Beef burger with cheese lettuce tomato bacon (which was more like ham) and ketchup with a side of fries 20$$ unreal.. So yes expensive and I don't really mind spending the money if the food can back it up but NOPE.. When they took my order didn't ask how I like my burger cooked and they over cooked it.. The bacon wasn't real bacon more like Canadian bacon and The fries; which are always my weakness were Soggy and not good.. Even the ketchup tasted funny, Like it had maple syrup in it..And of course the wait.. So disappointing read more

We picked Bareburger because my daughter has celiac and needs to eat GF. The food instantly made her sick even though we checked that everything ordered was GF. I even ate GF. After paying an extra $1.65 for a GF bun, the burger came out and I could hardly find the burger it was so small. Toppings were scarce as well. Overall not a good place for celiacs or those that love them. We will not be returning. read more

I am only giving 4 stars because the price is a little high, and almost every pickup order I have received was missing an item. However, they always rectified this when calling to let them know. The issues from when they first opened have been resolved, and this is a good place to go for a casual dinner date. read more

First problem is the price it's a burger joint not a high end restaurant. The service was slow and it's a small place. The food was cold burger looked cooked well but when it was cooked who knows. After saying it was cold they took it back and 2 mins later out it comes but now it's soggy my guess they microwaved it. Taste was bland lost appetite after a few bites. read more

This place could be a regular go to spot for many residents of the area; however, with that said, unless price is no option, it is hard to be satisfied for the price I'm willing to pay to eat inside a shipping container on the side of an intersection. In all seriousness, it is quite cool and nice inside - albeit very cramped due to low ceilings from the structure itself. ALL BURGERS SHOULD COME WITH ONE SIDE. For the price you're paying here for a slightly above average burger, it should come with at least a standard side of fries or onion rings. Paying over $25 for a burger, fries, and iced tea after tax and tip, is quite pricey when you can go to many other nearby prices for half that. The experience was just fine, but I wasn't satisfied for the value provided. read more

Better than McDonald's, but not much. My order got a little screwed up but it was close enough so I didn't bitch about it. I should have. The burger was very dry and the bun was stale. The chicken tenders were also very dry and stringy. My biggest problem is probably the cost. An $8 burger suddenly becomes a $15 burger with toppings. $1.35 for cheese, $3 and change for bacon, and 50 or 75 cents here and there adds up quick. My fault for not pricing it out, but I wasn't thinking I would pay $15 for what should have been a $5 burger. read more
