Such a fun and efficient workout. Lauren was encouraging and did a great job at explaining the workouts.

Love the lift only classes. In Brendan’s class he did a great job of modeling.

I am a longtime Barry’s person and a regular at Barry’s NoHo and other studios, and I have never had an experience as bad as I did at the East 86th Street location on Thanksgiving.

My boyfriend and I booked the Double Turkey class. He was on standby and when he finally got a spot they stuck him in the mirrored corner where he could not even see the instructor or the rest of the class. The dumbbells were directly in front of him and the whole setup was cramped, awkward, and honestly unsafe. At the very least they should have told us the spot was less than desirable so we could decide whether to take it or not.

We also asked to be placed together and the front desk made no real effort to help or acknowledge the situation.

What made it worse was the follow up. When I reached out, the response from the studio basically blamed us instead of taking any responsibility or offering a real apology. It felt dismissive and completely opposite of the service I am used to at Barry’s NoHo, the Hamptons, and DC.

I left feeling disappointed and unwelcome and I will not return to this location.

I had a terrible experience at Barry’s Bootcamp. i was placed in a spot where it was almost impossible to participate in the class, and because it was a double class, everything felt even more disorganized and frustrating. When I tried asking the staff for help, I felt totally brushed off, which made the whole visit even worse. this seems to be a theme with the staff at 86th street barry’s

Staff is always greeting everyone with a smile as soon as you walk in and they know the regulars that come in by name. I have my favorite instructor who I go to every Saturday , Blaine, absolutely love him . He shows each move so it’s very easy to follow for newbies as well

Great workout! I appreciate the heavy use of bands, love when we do workouts like this so I can learn a routine to replicate on work trips. Matt was awesome - easy to follow exercises that still pushed my muscles.

Avery was absolutely encouraging. This was my first time at Barry’s. I’m out of shape and Avery made me feel comfortable and not afraid to ask for help.

High intensity instructor led cardio(treadmill/cycle), combined with strength training. Instructors were very helpful in showing the exercises. Overall, excellent workout but a bit pricey compared to Other similar HIIT treadmill classes.

Highly recommend the 86th St location, and if you want to challenge yourself and get an ego boost to start your day - go for Annette's classes!

Carey was an amazing instructor! It was my first time, and I just fell in love with the experience. I don’t typically work out, and I feel like I can’t tone my body in just a few weeks. I would love to have more ab workouts, but overall, the experience was fantastic. I’m planning to book a few more sessions!

It's the best bootcamp in the city! Red lights make everyone look good. Staff is the nicest (my friends that I recruit via guest passes always make a comment about how pleasant and friendly front desk staff are). Coaches are in such great shape and are fun people. Music playlist will get you going. I quickly got addicted. 50 minutes fly by!

The music is too loud in certain classes that my ears are ringing. This is especially the case w the classes downstairs. They need to also do a better job of spacing the floor. I’ve had multiple instances where i had to avoid bumping into others. The people working front desk could use some work on customer service skills

Austin pushed me to my limits and I felt amazing after class. Sad he won’t be doing the 7:50pm time slot but I’ll definitely look for his other classes. This location is clean and upbeat. Easy to get to.

I purchased a 3-class pass to see if this was something I would like. I'm pretty used to boot camp-style classes. And by far Barry’s was such a great experience. I got an awesome workout in each class and the staff seemed really engaged. However the only pain point is the pricing per class, it's expensive if you're taking classes a few times a week. But if it's in your budget it's a great time. I will be returning.

Poor Cancellation policy with regards to infectious disease. Booked a class via Classpass on Friday, Sunday morning woke up with sore throat, fatigue, chills. Walked over to either cancel my appointment or just check in and not take the class. Was informed that this was not possible. Once you check you "you have to take the class" or contact Classpass to change. Seems like Barrys Bootcamp would rather a person with an infectious viral disease spread it to all the other people working out in a tiny red room, rather then make it convenient to rebook or reschedule. They will of course blame Classpass, but it comes off more as buck passing, they in the end should be responsible for their own infectious disease protocols.

I’ve been to all other Barry’s in the city but this one have major issue when it comes to the fuel bar, for the fourth Sunday my shake is BLAND, no flavors whatsoever just iced water with color! It’s not one person but each Sunday another barista girl and another tasteless drink! They all super nice but please maybe more training? Or mix staff up with other locations because I’m done traveling there.

So happy Barry’s opened their location on E 86th!! I work out all over the city and Barry’s have been one of my favorite studios to go to (and to check out when I visit new cities). It’s always a consistently hard workout, no matter which city or location, and the class is always a good time! the difference is just the energy / vibes of each instructor.
I love this location and the staff here.

Great instructors but you’re getting kicked in the face if you get stuck in a back row. God save you in the LIFT class basement broom closet.

I have been to three different locations of Barry’s. This location is the worst! The coach was super fun and nice. The problem is the front desk, she was super rude to me and my friends. When we first walked in, she gave us an unwelcoming feeling, then took our name. When she sees “Americans” walked in, her face was different. I can somehow sense she is a racist and not welcoming Asian people here! So no, thanks! I won't come back to this location ever!

Kristin absolutely killed me! Great workout. This Barry’s is so much newer and bigger than the other UES location. Dumbbells and treads were new and state of the art. Will be going here from now on!
