They are great, however the price has sky rocketed in the past year, so sale now is actually the original price of 2 yrs ago. Now thats a joke.. like with most items, I have stopped buying it Show details
No refund for bad batch of chips – I got a dodgy batch of quest protein chips (8 packets) where the chips were fused together and were extremely hard (couldn’t bite through them) emailed their support & they initially responded asking for batch # etc. I gave all the details then they ghosted me. I’ve been trying to get a response for a month and they’re obviously just ignoring my… Read more
emails. I tried all the contact emails on their website they alol just said I need to contact quest nutrition support which is the email address that’s ignoring me. I’ve given up on a refund. Won’t buy from them again.
Absolute garbage – Absolute garbage and gave every one of us diarrhea. Aside from the bars tasting like cardboard, the ingredients are just awful which showed in the digestive issues they gave to several of us who tried them. The fact that Tome Bilyeu made his fortune from these is a perfect example of the power of marketing Show details

I will give this 2 star because I like the flavour but what it was supposed to look like to what I received…nothing like the packaging.
Taste like perfume – The birthday cake taste like a LCM bar, it's okay.. to sweet and it doesn't taste like a birthday cake. I won't be buying again. Chocolate chip cookie dough.. very disappointing.. taste nothing like a cookie dough and the Chocolate is weird. The after taste is awful and sickly. The texture is weird its feels like clay. It likes biting into one of them dentist things to mold your teeth Won't be buying again Show details
False advertising – Purchased an expensive Quest caramel chocolate chunk bar. Looks delicious in the photo on the packaging. Mmm real chocolate dripping with caramel. Opened up to a weird looking bar. No chocolate coating. No caramel. Just a yucky old horrible looking thingy. Pass. Show details
So disappointing! – Most bars are too sweet and leave an aftertaste. The packaging of the caramel chocolate chunk is misleading: you get a chewy bar with no chocolate coating and no guey caramel. However I absolutely love the peanut butter cups! Show details
Positive reviews
Good – My fave would have to be caramel choc chip (which I live off) or bday cake. The other flavours r ok if u bung em in the microwave for 10 seconds. Turns a tasteless chewy brick into a relatively flavoursome treat. Show details
They are amazing. Not all of them suit my pallet, but amazing none the less!!! – They are amazing. I had heard about them from social media and online and when I finally got around to trying them i decided to get one of each. Best decision ever. Some of them weren't the best in suit to MY pallet. But they tasted grrat none the less. They don't taste like your other unhleathy options in terms of type of sweetness etc. But OMFG… Read more
they are still sooooo good. Furthermore knowing the companies mission and Tom Bilyeau's mission to make the world a better place makes it satisying to the soul too. Would highly recommend!!!
The white chocolate raspberry quest bars are divine – Although I've tried the mint chocolate chunk,s'mores,cookies & cream & chocolate chip cookie dough flavors & as OK as all the others are flavor wise,I literally have to buy the white chocolate raspberry quest bars by the box because they're so good.
Negative reviews
Can’t believe it….!!!! – There is actually now lecithin from Soy but the worst is that is GMO soy!!!! So bad for the cells membrane… Please de-soy yourself!!! Show details
Shocking!!!!! – Loved the high fibre and low carbs on these but the taste is awful. So sickly sweet with a very bad after taste. If quest could tweak the recipe a bit and go easy on the bicarbonate if soda and the sweeteners they could be on to a winner. As they are sorry I’m out!!! Show details
Only birthday cake flavour – Very hard to rate these as I absolutely LOVE the birthday cake flavour and eat them regularly. They are great and have not impeded my weight loss but every other flavour I’ve tried tasted hideous. For me only the white chocolate and sprinkle combination can hide the artificial sweetener taste sufficiently. Only buy on a good special $3 or less. Show details

Ew – I thought I'd try these as the macros looked good but - oh man, the taste is bad. It's not often I find something so bad I can't bring myself to eat it. Tried cookies and brownie, both ew. Show details
Sweetness Overload – I've been doing Keto so thought these bars would be perfect, but they are so so sickly sweet I couldn't finish them. Ended up chucking them out. I tried 3 of the flavours so maybe the other ones are better. Show details
Awful tasting – The Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough tastes awful. As others have said sickly sweet and in my opinion doesn’t taste like chocolate or cookie dough. I ate half the bar and I’m not not sure I can stomach the rest. I like the Macros but I cannot stand the taste. I will not be buying any other flavours or any more bars. Show details
Revolting sickly sweet taste – The taste of the Choc Chip Cookie Dough is so sickly-sweet that it makes me gag and has a nasty after-taste that lingers for way too long after being consumed. I purchased a 12-pack on sale and tossed 11 and a half of them into the bin. The Quest website claims it's like sneaking a spoonful of cookie dough straight from the bowl.... hmmm, it's… Read more
not like any cookie dough I have ever tasted. They also have this bar listed under 'fan favourites' Quite frankly, I find both statements a little hard to 'digest'.
Yuck - Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough – Defiantly not the worst tasting protein bar i have tried but bad tasting enough to put me off purchasing again . I got the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough one while on special at woolworths to try and its tastes so artifical and fake with a rank sweet artificial after taste that lingers . The Macros on the bar seem good but plenty of better tasting bards out there
Great Macros, the Good Ends There – Yuck. Just yuck, I have tried several different flavours, hoping one would be palatable but no dice. These have great macros and seemed so promising in my transition to low-carb, but the flavour is just artificial to the point of being revolting. Sorry Quest, I know you tried - but these are essentially sweetened whey protein and no amount of "flavour" can disguise that.
Worst Thing In Bar Form I've Ever Tasted – Do you remember the good ol' times where your parents would wash your mouth out with soap for saying something naughty? Mix that by-gone-era taste with 1/4 cup of aniseed oil and half a spoon of cookie dough and you've got *drum roll please* ... Quest Bars' Cookies & Cream Protein Bar! Worst thing I've ever tasted. So much so, that when my… Read more
partner walked into the room and asked "what are you reviewing!?" I gagged just describing the taste out-loud.
Don't even read this review and go and buy one. You will regret it. You and your $4 will part for nothing.
Buy a carton of eggs instead.
Misleading – These things are so crap. They taste like holy communion. Every flavor tastes exactly the same. Don't buy this product. It is a huge waste of money. The flavors are misleading and the wrappers are too. Screw you questbar. Fix your product. Stop making me waste money on your good packaging and poor product.
Good but not the best – A wide variety of flavours and an okay ingredients list, not great but acceptable considering it's a protein bar. Having one bar shouldn't cause you bloating if you are already used to having adequate fibre but if not then it will most likely cause discomfort. No soy is a big bonus I wouldn't agree with others on the sickly sweet taste, I mean sure maybe for the strawberry cheese cake but what are you expecting.

Disgusting- fake sickly sweet – I have tried many protein bars and heard a lot about quest bars. Unfortunately they taste terrible. They are sickly sweet but really fake tasting. I tried about 4 different flavours but cringed every time I had to take a bite. Save your money and try another brand.
They taste artificial and cause bloating – I bought a bunch of these as I wanted an easy, filling snack on the go, and I was curious about the different flavours. I started eating one every few days or so and found that they kept the hunger pangs away. I enjoyed the double chocolate chunk flavor, but most of the others tasted quite odd/artificial and too salty for my liking. After a few… Read more
weeks of having them I started to get bloated and have occasional headaches so I stopped having them and switched to healthier, more natural snacks instead.
By far the best out there – Quest bars are by far the best Protein bar on the market. What makes a huge difference? No SOY! No other bar I have found is the same. The taste is awesome as well!
LOVE these bars :) – I have tried just about every protein bar available & these are #1. Every flavour is delicious especially the ones with real chocolate bits in there, great macros. I eat 1 or 2 per day to make sure I hit my target of protein each day. I have just bought the quest protein chips - giving them a go :) would recommend these bars to anyone. Also… Read more
warming them up is great, I buy in box loads depending where cheapest, iherb (have the quickest postage & best range).
Disgusting – If you want to know what they ALL taste like, go eat a large spoonful of whey protein powder, straight from the bag. Quest Bars are the most disgusting things I have ever tasted in MY LIFE. I usually have whey protein in my smoothies, but I sure as hell don't enjoy chewing on a stick of the stuff. I tried cookie dough, cookies and cream, smores… Read more
and some sorta triple chocolate one first. Thinking it may just be these ones, I went out and brought another four (of different flavours). Nope, they are all taste disgusting. Honestly I would rather eat maggots than those things. How ANYONE can like them I have no idea, but don't waste your money. Any protein bar is better than Quest. Hell, just eat a damn banana. I will NEVER buy these again and am extremely DISAPPOINTED.
Awesome on the go, fits nicely within my macros, taste great! – Always have a number of Quest Bars on hand. They are incredibly handy to keep on top of my macros especially if I am unable to have a more involved meal at the time (e.g. unpredictable work commitments etc.). Also worth noting the nutritional information varies with each flavor. They vary in fat and carbs so having a few different flavors helps… Read more
depending on what your goals/needs are. They are expensive but in moderation they are okay (e.g. eating 1+ daily is expensive, one every few days where applicable is okay).
Cookies and cream all the way – These have been working well for me as a snack between meals, have helped me resist bad foods, especially chocolate bars. I have tried most flavours, the best are cookies and cream and cookie dough.
Overpriced, Bad Service – If you live in Canada don't order from here! They charged me a ridiculous amount for delivery, then delivered it 35 minutes away from my home to be picked up by me or arrange further delivery at additional cost to me. The bars are ok but not worth the hassle if you need delivery!
Nothing compares! – These are the most tasty protein bars you can buy without a doubt. Hint, pop them in the microwave for 20-25 seconds to make them even better!
The best protein bar ever – I have tried quite a few protein bars and QuestBar is the best ever, delicious, high in protein, low in sugar. I like the ones with chocolate in it. It is not expensive if you buy it on au.iherb.com. This is what I paid: Quest Nutrition, QuestBar, Protein Bar, Double Chocolate Chunk, 12 Bars, 2.1 oz (60 g) Each Price: AU$34.64 You can use my… Read more

My new favourite snack – My friends has been nagging the local health food shop for quest bats and they have finally got them in! She got me hooked on the cookie dough flavour but I like them all. I don't have a lot of time so having a gluten free bar to grab is awesome! Taste Texture is a bit too 'refined'
Best Bars on the Planet! – I love Quest Bars, I discovered them while hunting for a High Protein Low Carb Natural-ish Bar suitable for a Primal/Paleo-ish lifestyle. These were brilliant, I love the different flavours with the Chocolate Peanut Bar being one of my favourites, although Cookie Dough is amazing as well. I find they are addictively delicious. Great for a Protein… Read more
hit and high in fiber, low in sugar and even have a stevia option. I suggest them to everyone. Only downside they are expensive. Delicious, Lots of Different Flavours, High in Protein High in Fiber - No Junk Expensive.
Taste great – Cannot believe the negative reviews for these bars Love the taste
