BareBurger isn't just a burger joint for milkshake and meat enthusiasts, it's an organic haven of all natural cheeses and free-range, grass-fed meats. This is no hippy-dippy dive. The place was so busy when a group of friends and I stopped through, we opted for an outside table just so we could slurp up pre-dinner milkshakes.
The restaurant's chocolate and peanut butter milkshake is made with organic ice cream and milk, and you better believe you can taste the difference. I decided I was just going to take a few bites from my boyfriend. Bad idea.
Rich, creamy and bursting with flavor, I had to refrain from snatching it away and downing the whole thing before he could even blink. It was just like a Reese's cup, except better, and not full of processed garbage.

My favorite part about BareBurger is the interchangeable menu. It gives meat suggestions and a plethora of sauces that'll make your head spin. First, choose meats like elk, lamb, bison or ostrich and what type of bun you'd like (whole wheat, brioche). From there, let your imagination run wild.
I opted for the Pesto Red Pepper Burger, a creation of smoked mozzarella, roasted red peppers, baby spinach, cajun spiced chicken and BareBurger pesto mayo. Together the cajun spiced chicken and mozzarella added a nice smokiness to the dish, while the pesto mayo was a perfect, moist touch.

Of course you can't have a burger without onion rings and French fries. The platter of dipping sauces that came with it were amazing. It was extra fun to try and guess which was which and identify the flavor nuances. The chipotle ketchup added a nice kick to a classic favorite, while the special sauce was a slam dunk with the crunchy onion rings.
I didn't try any of the other burgers that were ordered, but by the end of the meal none of us had anything left on our plates. The fries, sauces, milkshakes and onion rings were even picked clean.
Next time, I'd like to sit inside, and I promise to order my own milkshake.
