This spot is a great quick stop for mornings…read more My wife and I stopped in a few days ago and ordered a smoothie bowl, a bagel, a smoothie, and a matcha. Overall, it was a pleasant experience. The matcha was absolutely delicious and clearly made with care -- prepared in a proper bowl and whisked with a bamboo whisk. I asked for a bit of honey, which really pulled the entire experience together. Honestly, I'd give this place a 5/5 based on the matcha alone. The smoothie bowl (I go the one that has banana, peanut butter, honey, and some other toppings) was great overall, though I did have one small complaint: there were a few large chunks of ice mixed in, and I accidentally bit into them. Aside from that, the bowl was flavorful and enjoyable. My wife ordered a smoothie, which was just okay. I didn't particularly care for it, and she unfortunately didn't end up finishing it. The service was excellent. The woman who took our order was very friendly and helpful, and she even recommended the matcha -- which turned out to be a great suggestion. One last note: we had visited this spot about a year ago, and it looks like the interior has completely changed since then. The new layout is bright and welcoming, no longer dark, and features a mostly gray palette with accent plants and furniture that bring everything together nicely. It feels much cozier than before.

Walked in lunch hour on a rainy Tuesday. Not too busy. There's a walk up counter with a pretty…read moreextensive menu behind the service counter. They offer breakfast all day. And they have some great lunch options also. Along with smoothies. Was greeted quickly and warmly by one of the employees. I needed a few minutes to figure out what I wanted because this was my first time there. I eventually landed on a smoked salmon power bowl and a berry smoothie. Bowl had avocado, hard-boiled egg, perfectly cooked, spinach and quinoa topped with smoked salmon. There was a nice basil sauce on each half of the hard-boiled egg. It was a warm bowl which I was not expecting so it did throw me off at first. I'm not sure if they make the smoked salmon themselves or if they buy it from somewhere. I will have to admit I was not too excited about the flavor of this smoked salmon. But overall, the bowl was delicious. And I thoroughly enjoyed the berry smoothie. One of the reasons why I picked this place is that they allow dogs. They do have outside seating, which unfortunately was not going to work on a rainy afternoon. So I took my food to go as my pup was waiting for me in the car. All of their containers are compostable. I am interested in returning so I can try more of their menu.

Great food, great cold brew, great service, and great WiFi!…read more My brother and I can't stop raving about this place. They even have a lovely patio :) We also like the clean ingredients.

The smoothie from here might have been slightly better tasting than the smoothies I ordered from the Latham location. Though the staff in Latham may have been a little more knowledgeable and friendly (not that they were bad here but the Latham spot had some really nice, friendly people). Overall, Bare Blends is a solid addition to the capital district area!

A welcoming little cafe located in the Glenmont Plaza. This place is a treat. Or at least it seems…read morelike it is. I should be eating like this all the time. Everything I have gotten is delicious. Fresh fruit, granola,, you can add all kinds of stuff. You can build your own, you can get their craft specials. I am definitely eyeballing that pineapple coconut concoction available for the summer. I'm still learning about all the combinations but this place is so good. I could eat here every day. The staff is always friendly and willing to help with the abundance of delicious choices. I got a smoothie last week. I got a smoothie bowl this week. It had fresh strawberries fresh pineapple, walnuts, little dark chocolate drops, chocolate protein with almond milk. The base tastes like ice cream. I feel like I'm being bad but I'm not. Healthy eating is fun. I order on their app. It's easy and you earn points. They also have healthy treats for dogs that you can purchase.

Bare blends always has the most fun weekly flavors and the doughy bowl was one of my favorites!…read moreTasted just like a cookie and I love their healthy options which makes every bowl just the best! This is probably my favorite bare location, the girls working there are so nice and friendly and my bowls have always come out so delicious! It's also never crowded which is really nice just because the space is a bit smaller than the other locations I've been to. Overall I'm a big bare blends fan and highly recommend anyone with a craving for a smoothie bowl to stop by.

The salad greens were not chopped up and the other ingredients looked stale as if sitting out for days. I watched as the young woman who made the salad rammed everything into a bowl. The tzatziki dressing was beyond disgusting. Not sure how this passes as healthy much less appetizing. What a rip off. No customer service from the two ladies working today. They acted as they were miserable so I dumped my salad next door where I had an appointment. Never again.

If I could give Simone's Kitchen more than 5 stars, I would! I absolutely love this restaurant…read more It's such a great place to mingle with friends and family, including children. It's a kid-friendly environment and they even offer booster seats for little ones. Simone's kitchen offers an array of different table/chair sizes to accommodate those visiting solo or with a number of guests. Free water is provided and bathrooms and wifi are available onsite. Now, let's talk about the food. Simone's Kitchen is like Cava, but better! and it's Muslim-Owned. The food is always fresh! The service is friendly and quick! and the sweet treats are delicious! I've visited Simone's Kitchen a number of times and I sincerely don't get tired of it, because my taste buds enjoy's the food like it's my first time trying them. I've ordered the lil and big create your own bowls. The lil bowl is good for a serving of one and the big bowl and good for a serving of two. They offer a number of vegan and vegetarian options, which is a plus! The pita bread is always fresh and tastes great with the dips and dressings provided. The iced matcha latte is cool and it's possible to order it without the rose syrup. Loved the almond berry baklava and tahini truffle. Both treats are priced reasonably. Listen, overall, this a great place that was introduced to the Capital Region and I highly recommend giving Simone's Kitchen a visit.

If I lived closer, I'd be here all the time. Even with a slightly longer drive, I still want to come back here more often.
