Product Reviews: Bakery On Main Granola Bars


Running burns calories.  Loss of calories makes me hungry.  As a result, I find myself starving all day every day.  I bring a lot of snacks to work to keep me going, but I also walk 3 miles there, and often, my few snacks are not enough.

Granola bars are a great snack that are often rich in nutrients.

Allergy-Related Information: Gluten-free, GMO-free, Casein-free, Dairy-free, Cholesterol-free

Appearance

Pros: The packaging on these bars are fine and very classic of this company. 🙂

Cons: Unfortunately, there is no nutritional information on this bar, and the list of ingredients, although thorough, only includes a very minimal logo saying “gluten-free”, which leaves out the rest of the other allergy-free features of this bar.

Taste

Pros: Very natural, almost homemade!

Cons: As a whole, I was really disappointed with the taste.  Not only did the peanut butter chocolate granola bar have ridiculously absent chocolate chips – I had 1, yes 1 chocolate chip in the whole bar – but it didn’t taste like peanut butter… or much of anything actually.  In fact, there was almost a sweet, berry-ish taste that was not supposed to be there.  Very disappointing.

Moisture/Texture

Pros: The texture and moisture level in this bar was fine.  I was happy to see that it remained bendy and moist even after months in my cabinet.

Cons: No cons here!

What I Love

Unfortunately, if I’m to be honest, I’m not a fan of these bars and don’t have much to say that I “LOVE” except that I do appreciate and love the use of natural ingredients.

What I’d Improve

I would most-definitely work on the flavor of these bars, because as of right now, they would discourage someone looking for a healthy snack bar, whereas there are numerous, great tasting bars out there.  Unfortunately, this is not one of them.

Overall Rating: F

Although these bars left much to be desired, Bakery in Main offers a wide variety of other products, including their granola, which I have both tried and really enjoyed!  Check them out here!

  1. Hello Ashley!
    Sorry to hear that you did not enjoy our Peanut butter Chocolate bar. We do have 100% risk free guarantee which means you can return unused portion of product to the store or us for refund. The reason you could not find any nutritional information on the bar itself is because these bars are sold in a box only and not for individual sale. So the box will have all nutritional and complete allergy-free statements.If you would like to try another product line and do a review please let me know! You can e-mail me at whitneyr@bakeryonmain.com
