This bar was my favourite of the three flavours. The bar was great and I was impressed by the nutrition. I really enjoyed the cranberry flavour and the hint of sweetness was not overpowering. I will be buying these again.
I got to try this through the Product Review Club ! Overall, I don't think I'll be buying another one. The price is steep for a granola bar equivalent. Out of the 3 bars, this one was my favorite, but still found it to be on the sweet side with just too much going on. I do like that it is very natural, with a great source of fiber, made with real fruit, and also not a GMO !!
This makes for a great snack - even though it is my favorite out of the 3 I tried, I will not repurchase because it is extremely expensive. I would rather buy something cheaper in bulk from Costco / Walmart
I received this product free to try from chick advisor. My family found this product to be just ok. It wasn't our favorite of the bars we tried. It could have been a bit less sweet.
we received free samples of these bars and we were very surprised with how good they actually tasted! my husband took them to work for a nutritional snack and he said that they gave him some extra energy to make it through the day.
We were impressed and would definitely buy the brookside bars again!
the bars were tasty and nutritious, cant ask for anything more really!
I was surprised how much I enjoyed this bar out of the three I was selected to review. It had a very pleasing taste and I didnt find it nearly as tart as the other two. Like the others, I would have loved to have more chocolate on the actual product as the thin layer on the bottom wasnt nearly enough for my tastes, but overall it was pretty good. I loved the whole almonds and it had a really nice crunch to it.
Brookside is really stepping up their game, first with the chocolate bars and now these. It's great that they are made with real fruit and are gluten free for those who are sensitive to that. They made a great addition to my lunch as a special treat however they have a high calorie count and high sugar content so they are more treat than healthy choice, just something to keep in mind. But it was a unique bar with a strong fruit flavour and nice addition of dark chocolate that I found satisfying.

I love a good chocolate bar and the fruit and nuts added into these are so great! It the perfect combination of a granola bar and chocolate bar so definitely still a treat but not completely bad for you. The chocolate bars are still my favourite over this but I did find it to be a great alternative or addition to the bars that are currently on the market.

These are normal sized granola-type bars, with a chocolate base.
I did not like the tart taste of the chocolate, so ended up just eating the fruit and nuts (half a bar). The fruit and nuts part was delicious, but the ingredient list didn't seem to have a lot of natural sugars in it. The fruit and nut base did remind me of the homemade granola bars I make in the summer for bicycling though.
They do taste less sweet and better than alternative bars (minus the chocolate part), so it might be a good idea for just plain (sans chocolate) bars to be part of the product line.
The combination of cranberry and blackberry was a perfect match fruitwise, and I really enjoyed the nuts for protein.
I wouldn't purchase this bar on my own accord, and only recommend them to people who really like bitter chocolate.
