Reviews

  1. I love these bars. Been using these since the 90s and I am so happy they’re back!

  2. After years of trying countless different bars, gels, drinks, and nutrition strategies, I find the Original Bar’s taste and texture a welcome friend in my jersey pocket these days. Tried, true, and reliable energy for the long haul days.

  3. (verified owner)

    PowerBar, please don’t ever stop making these. They are simply the pinnacle of my carb routine. I not only use them for after workout sessions to replenish lost glycogen, but the glucose in them helps fuel my brain for my highly rigorous study sessions (engineering major) as well!

    The taste of the berry flavor is truly divine and I don’t know what I’d do without access to these body/brain treats. Please, never stop being who you are as a company, and never stop making these bars!

  4. Loved these growing up, sad to see my favorite flaver banana seem to no longer be made.

  5. Love these bars wish I could find banana flavor again. Been eating these since the 90s. Even my teen loves them!

    • (verified owner)

      Banana was a good flavor! We are so happy to hear you and your teen are such a fan of the products! Do you have another favorite flavor?
