GoMacro reviews and discussion

These bars are alright, but way way higher in sugar than they should be for a bar that's touting good macros or at least has macro in the title. It's 2025 and I feel like there are definitely healthy sweetener alternatives that could be used.

Healthy and tasty energy bars that have no gluten or animal products. I liked the almond butter and banana flavor. They are hearty and will keep you full for a while.

Not a fan. The tastes isn't great, and the macros are poor.

Most of the flavors I’ve tried have just been ok, and I agree with the other reviews that these bars are high calorie and higher in carbs than protein so I feel like calling them protein bars might be a bit of a stretch. Having said all of that I am completely addicted to the lemon flavor. It’s so satisfying. The lemon isn’t overpowering but it’s definitely there, and the bars are really dense and chewy which I like. They’re also pretty filling so I view them more as n occasional meal replacement. That lemon bar alone is why I’m rating this brand 4 stars. If you like very dense and chewy you’ll probably like these bars.

I love my GoMacro bars. They're a great breakfast replacement when you're on the go or when you need a filling snack.

No complaints - great for on the go!

I like that these are widely available, vegan, and have slightly more protein than other brands. However, the texture can get kind of sticky and I wish they had slightly less sugar. The oatmeal chocolate chip ones are great and I'm glad those can be purchased in the multi-packs.

These bars are our families favorite. My favorite is the oatmeal chocolate chip. I have purchased three different kids flavors and they were all a hit. Great bars if you like chocolate.

In my opinion, probably the tastiest bar out there. I would probably eat one or two of the Oatmeal Chocolate Chip bars every day if I could afford them. Feel generally good about the ingredients as well, though I believe brown rice syrup is the first ingredient in at least most of the bars.

super great snack! I love the berry flavor!

Perf for a pre-workout or mid-workout snack, we keep these stocked at the house for when do double workout days. Mint is current fave flavor. A tip: they are cheaper at Trader Joes.

I think overall, this is a good protein bar in a pinch. I like that it's plant-based overall and simple. I don't normally seek it out personally though.

For the amount of sugar its a really sad candy bar with a little protein.

I was introduced to GoMacro by my sister's boyfriend, who is someone who gets really busy and doesn't always make time to eat. I tried them out and found out I actually really liked how they tasted and made me feel. They are fairly substantial, I usually don't eat a full one in a single sitting, which makes their cost more justifiable. But the main thing is the taste -- because while I try to always eat organic, I'm not vegan or gluten free. I tried almost every flavor they offer, and even though I'm not big on chocolate, I really enjoyed all of them, and now make sure to always have some on me just incase. Banana + Almond Butter flavor was a surprising favorite. It's a great perk that the company also seems really ethical

Great products. Always fresh. I used to buy online by the case for months.

Relevant to the name, my favorite thing about this brand is how they have all of the macros listed right there for you. Overall, the bar itself tasted really good and wasn’t “dry” like other protein bars seem to be. They are kinda pricey for a protein bar but I think it’s definitely worth it. Would recommend!

The only protein bar i've actually liked i always have ~5 on hand

Love these. They’re perfect if I’m on the go and can’t get a meal in. The flavors are awesome and they’re not rock hard like most protein bars. I’m only giving it 4 stars because I wish they had less sugar.

There are tons of bars out there but GoMacro is one of the few that manages the difficult task of being both functional and tasty. The ingrdients are thoughtful, the brand stands out from the pack and their bars offer great moutfhfeel and taste. I continue to love everything this brand offers to this day.

As someone who doesn’t typically enjoy the chewy type of protein bar, I really like the chocolate peanut butter flavor.
