I stopped in here as a side tip to the next-door Caribou around Thanksgiving on a whim and it has been a regular weekly event ever since. I’ve tried something different pretty much each trip, but not a single thing has disappointed me! The Apple crunch is a favorite as is the Cinnamon chip, but the March items have totally blown me away. The Irish Whiskey Coffee Cake is out of this world, and the Summit Oatmeal Stout & Gouda buns were phenomenal! However both my partner and I say the Irish Baked Potato loaf I was lucky enough to bring home still warm today is THE BEST bread we’ve eaten ever.

My experience with Great Harvest Bread Co. had its highs and lows. The chocolate babka impressed with its well-layered ganache, but the white chocolate babka fell short due to uneven distribution of large white chocolate pieces. The white bread and sourdough received praise for their taste, yet the consistent density across all breads raised concerns about the proofing process. Ordering during Christmas likely affected the bake quality, but for the price, you expected more consistent quality. The fact that they mill their own wheat is impressive, and the customer service was great, though communication regarding order timing could be improved to avoid last-minute surprises. Considering the mixed experience, you might explore other bakeries before revisiting Great Harvest Bread Co.
