Great place for gluten free items but my one issue was the price I paid for just a small tray of cookies, 5 individual pastries and 2 bagels. Definitely not worth the $71 price.

That was the best hot chocolate I've had in years. It was like drinking the perfect brownie. Thank you

Summary: Not perfect but good for a "treat yo self" kinda day of comfort food and loosening your purse strings. 5* for variety, 2* for pricing/value, 5* for taste, 4* for service etc
As a Celiac with nut allergies it's an incredible relief to have a place where I can feel "safe" in my food choice. Gluten free DOES NOT MEAN healthy or organic, so don't come in here expecting that. In NYC I am absolutely in love with Modern Bread and Bagel and this is the closest thing to that on LI that I've found. It's not as good of quality, the ingredients here seem a bit cheaper (more oil, more corn), so the value for your $ is debatable, but it's a huge blessing just to have variety! I picked up their Thanksgiving menu and almost cried - it's every Thanksgiving food I can never have: the biscuits, pies, croutons, stuffing, gravy.
It's expensive. GF food usually is, and I think Bare Naked is reeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaalllllly stretching it to the upper limit of what consumers consider acceptable. That said, at Modern Bread I think my bagel order is like $20, so 🤷🏻♀️ Look, it's worth the price if you're dying to have something you can NEVER have otherwise. Obviously I hate that GF stuff is so expensive in general but that's the world we live in right now.
I also dislike that not all their products have ingredients listed. Many people with a gluten allergy also have other allergies or sensitivities so it puts our minds at ease to have as much information as possible. Their menus are incomplete too - there's tea options not listed anywhere (Stash brand).
The muffin I got tasted great and was a treat. The "cafe" aspect is iffy.... I probably wouldn't come here specifically for the tea/coffee but if you're coming for the food and want a drink, it's fine. There are a lot of teas available, none of them are listed anywhere (why??????) but the counter staff knew them by memory. I don't love that my "chai latte" came as a hot tea and I was directed to put milk in myself at the accessories counter. That's not really "cafe" kinda service.
I got a muffin and a chai latte for about $8, which is all right. Some of the other products are priced way higher.

I would highly recommend this place..My friend recommended this place .My daughter has health conditions and is on gluten free and dairy free diet.I was looking for a bakery which had good taste and good quality both. I am so haapy that my daughter loves their bake goods and desserts. We often enjoy the cafe by dinning in and everything on Menu is execellent!!! Also, the staff and their service is very good. We love their gluten free breads and bagels and now my whole family enjoys the breads!

I had Strawberry Shortcake and Chocolate mousse cake ordered from here for my baby shower and it was so so good! Completely different from the other bare naked bakery locations because there were lots of reviews for those other locations saying the vanilla cake used was very dry. But as for this location in Huntington it was not dry at all and the cake was absolutely fabulous. 10/10!! No one could believe it was gluten or dairy free!

$48 just spent for a loaf of bread, 2 bagels. A half of a sandwich, which was not what we ordered... and a "bowl" of matza ball soup,that was not even a cup at any deli in the world.
BEST GLUTEN FREE BAGELS EVER
Service is beyond horrible. I have never said this... do not tip. They are horrible.
The tragedy is I have celiacs and would eat there everyday.
They did not get most of our order, and it was still $48. I am hardly cheap. Tipped the girl over 20% for counter service.
They have no bags.

Sad to see the previous organic restaurant leave, but was excited to see at least a gluten free bakery, until.... I walked in and looked at the ingredients of one of the gluten free breads - wow , the list of ingredients with additives looked very disappointing (see photo). The other breads did not have ingredients listed on the outer package - why?
Cornstarch appears to be the main ingredient in one bread followed by white rice flour, tapioca flour, sugar, corn syrup and other additives, so basically, this is the antithesis of the previous restaurant as far as healthy food. (Yeah, I know it's a bakery, but the ingredients can be less offending nutritionally).
I realize there are some that can't have any wheat or part thereof, but trading a bakery experience with highly inflammatory ingredients that are the farthest thing from organic? Keep in mind that over 90 percent of corn and corn products are GMO, and the corn starch and corn syrup delivery this.
All this being said, I don't know how good any of the baked goods taste, so they can be the best tasting gluten free goods out there, but what stopped me from buying any treat was the ingredient list.
I wasn't looking for pure organic, but at least a more wholesome offering of ingredients, or even non-gmo which is still cost effective for the merchant.
Oh yeah, the pretzel is 12 bucks? Is that a mistake?
I expected a wee bit more from a bakery in Huntington Village - sure, it's not Brooklyn or NYC where there is a plethora of way more healthy gluten free bakeries (I'll refrain from mentioning other business names to be fair), but come on guys.
Moving on, if you look at my other reviews, I'm not someone who just leaves a trail of negative reviews because I'm mad at the world - just post honest experiences, and most are positive.
I'm hoping the owners of this new bakery will consider using more wholesome ingredients in their gluten free baked goods in the near future.

I am thrilled there is finally a place that is completely safe to eat at and everything is INCREDIBLE. I got a BEC on an everything bagel like a true Long Islander, and some goodies including a black and white cookie. The bagels are the largest gluten free bagels I’ve ever had and they’re amazing. Can’t wait to get back!

We tried the cannoli dip and the cupcakes- they were FABULOUS! The bagels were the best GF bagels I’ve ever tried. They really did a nice job.
I highly recommend the bagels and the bread. The bagel was light and fluffy but there was not enough cream cheese for the $3.25 additional. I cannot recommend the other items I tired (mini pie, fried ravioli, fries) they were only okay. I will be returning but only for the bread products. Grateful to see gluten free businesses.
