Chicken Salad Sandwich
Kelsi K.

Yummy with a capital Y! Not only does this location have plenty of indoor/outdoor seating but the staff were beyond helpful. Oh and the food was great! The menu has so many options for breakfast and lunch. You can customize your sandwich (but why would you, the sandwich's are fully loaded) I got the spicy apple bacon sandwich on sourdough. Bread had the perfect crisp to it. Great quality you can taste. I will be back!

After 4 years living in Ames, this was such a great discovery! The bakery has a very nice laid back ambiance, making you feel comfortable. The food is absolutely delicious and fresh. Staff also provided great service and were really nice. Will definitely be going back to try other items.

Cold and rainy outside - warm bread, soup and coffee inside!

Not my first time at GHB&C, but my first review. This place hasn't been in Ames too long, but they really do a great job of serving their customers. Great Harvest is more than just a bakery that makes good bread - they have a nice menu of sandwiches, soups and salads, all are good from my experiences so far. I love their peppered blue roast beef. Nothing beats a good sandwich with fresh meat and great homeade bread! I also like their turkey chile cheddar melt. I had that last time I was here and it's a nice warm sandwich on a cold day. The feel is casual and totally laid back. They have music playing over the loud speakers, nothing too annoying as to wreck the ambiance. This is a great place to grab a quick bite, take a coffee break and enjoy one of their fresh-baked pastries or just come in and get a fresh loaf to take home. The service is fast and friendly. This is quickly turning into one of my favorite locations here in Ames.

One of my favorite stops in ames. Staff is kind and the vibe is very cool and relaxed…read more I've tried about every crepe on the menu and they are all great and range from classic flavors to unique combinations id never think to get in a crepe. First time getting the matcha here I usually get the lemonade it's very good but the matcha was surprisingly really good! I'm very picky about my matchas and struggle to find coffee shops that make good ones but this is probably one of the better options in Ames.

Lockwood Café in Ames, Iowa is refreshing little secret nestled in a corner neighborhood off of…read moreOntario Street. The building is a reclaimed grain and feed store originally built about 1870. It's kind of a self-serve place where you order at the counter, go pick up your own food, and bus your own table. With that said, the prices are extremely reasonable, and the food is excellent quality. The menu is a crêperie with a number of vegan offerings and no meat proteins on the menu, with the exception of eggs. I had the Fruit Parfait Sweet crêpe, my wife had the Apple Crisp crêpe, and my son had the Banana and Nutella crêpe. All three were fantastic, and the coffee was delicious! This is a super affordable little breakfast option that I would recommend to anybody who enjoys a good crêpe and a great cup of coffee.
