My first time at Bare, I ended up creating my own which didn't come out great so I went with their winter menu Cannoli smoothie bowl this time and it was the most yum!! Their cashew butter was so delicious and the smoothie bowl itself was not lacking on the toppings either! Everything was blended so smoothly and I was so satisfied by the end of it. I'm still thinking about that bowl today and it definitely made me want to try their weekly features and download their app for more deals! I ordered online and it was ready in the fridge when I got there and was super easy to get! Love the location as well as the one in Albany which is close to lots of great shops in the plaza. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for a food that makes you feel good!

I'm always looking for a good smoothie bowl place in Albany and Bare was really good. I love all the options they have and the ability to customize it. Their fall menu looked fun as well.

But there were just enough little things that, when added up, kept my review from being more favorable. I like to craft a salad, which you can do easily here. But if you're doing that while at the counter, unless you're looking at the menu from your phone, you only see the make-your-own ingredients on one monitor that changes what it displays about every 5 seconds. It took me several iterations to see the complete list of greens, proteins, additions, dressings, etc.. Maybe you could slow down how quickly the display changes, or maybe put a laminated copy of the menu on the counter? I was disappointed that salmon wasn't available, and they said they've had a problem getting it recently. That's not their fault, but disappointing anyway. The grilled chicken I ordered instead was fine, though chilled, meaning it was cooked earlier in the day. There was also something inedible in my salad, about pea-sized. I have no idea what it was, it wouldn't have come from any of the salad ingredients I ordered. I have to watch out for things like these, because in the past I've had crowns knocked out from biting into foods with surprises at restaurants. The rest room was clean but needed service. The soap dispenser was empty, and the wastebasket was full. Since the majority of their business appears to be take-out, and the restaurant had only been open for about 3 hours, it led me to believe they didn't bother to service it in the morning. While I'm used to "healthy" being more expensive than "starchy," even knowing I'd pay additional for the protein and certain add-ins such as avocado, the overall price, with beverage and tip, was still more than an equivalent amount at other places offering similar options in the area. None of this was deal-breaking, and just a few tweaks could easily add another star to a future revised review.

I proudly announce to the front person / people that I am new to this business. So they help me by making good suggestions etc. The front lady seemed a bit shy or an introvert, I really get that and that's okay, not everyone is ready to jump on a new customer. Shout out to introverts, all respect to you guys. Although bit unfriendly but she was able to help me order a smoothie. Pitaya Smoothie : Strawberries with pineapples, coconut milk with Pitaya? I never even tried Pitaya before, she said it's like dragon fruit. These were the key ingredients. However the combination of the fruits seemed bit off. I guess I compare every smoothie to the Honest Weight food coop. But berries go together. Beets and carrots and apple and lemon are acceptable pairing. Anyways may be I am wrong, thinking that Pitaya smoothie combination is bit strange. The strawberries didn't seem fresh, powder fruit might or might not have been used. I am not able to reverse engineer this smoothie. I got a salmon salad. Salmon was cured and not fresh fried, I had wished the front lady would have told me that. I do not like cured meats at all. The salads come in two sizes. Regular and large. Other than the cured salmon, the salad was great, fresh ingredients. The salad dressing was good too. Ambience was really quiet. Seems like a popular spot. Many clients stopped to get food. I would surely go back to try more things, other than the cured salmon. I have not written a long review in a while. I would definitely try this place. May be the staff will warm up overtime
