I took my granddaughter there for lunch. She loved her sandwich. Mine was heated and got soggy. They maybe could've heated the meat and cheese 1st, then put on a bun. I would go again. I like the healthy food they make. read more

This is so unfortunate because I really genuinely love the breads here. But this is a review specifically about an experience I had like a month ago. I pre-ordered the high fiber bread scheduled for pick up on Monday. It was on the menu online and it accepted my payment, and considering it's a pre-order I assumed everything was good to go and they would make my order ready by Monday. I get to the store on Monday in a mad rush because I'm trying to pick up this high fiber bread to take home for my father in law flying back to Taiwan. So I literally made the trip just to get the bread in the morning and then rushed home to take him to the airport. I get to the store and apparently one of the managers said they tried to call me... at 6:30/7AM in the morning leaving me a voicemail on that same Monday I went to pick up the bread.... Basically saying they can't fulfill my order because the high fiber is not something they make on Monday??? I mean first of all, why are you taking preorders online then? Second of all, why is your online system allowing us customers to order and place in the cart if it's not available on Monday? Isn't that the point of preorder? So you know ahead of time what bread to make for customers? He then had the audacity to say... all our *regular customers* know our bread making schedule. It changes daily. Well, first of all, excuse me for not being a *regular* as in there's apparently some elitist exclusive group at great harvest bread. Also, though I'm not a *regular*, I do purchase breads from here for visitors etc from time to time and am well aware that the breads they make change daily WHICH IS WHY I PREORDERED. I was pretty upset about the whole ordeal and he compted me a Dakota bread which I don't even like. *eye roll* I think they seriously need to work on customer service etiquette and to edit their website so that it's not misleading. If you aren't able to provide the bread listed online, then don't enable it for preorders and waste our time commuting only to leave empty handed. Factoria is an extremely busy area too with heavy traffic in the morning. I was breaking a sweat trying to get from A to B on time What a complete disappointment. Please note this is not a review for the quality of their bread, but for the disappointing customer service and lack of transparency in their website. It's completely misleading... read more

The smell is outrageously good the minute you walk in. Yes they make bread here and who doesn't like the smell of freshly baked bread? The store is very clean and immediately upon entering I had FOMO and worried that I would miss out. I stayed focused on my goal of buying bread for sandwiches. The honey wheat seemed like the most obvious. They also offer free samples with or without butter. Three breads and two scones to choose from. I sampled the blueberry cream cheese scone. Such a great treat. Service super friendly and welcoming. Lots of other things here such as granola, popcorn, some beverages and other baked treats. Cookies, rolls and other things. The parking lot is shared with many other businesses so be careful when parking here. Do it, eat well. Treat yourself. SYOY. read more

terrible service. the store was empty and my daughter and i were essentially ignored for 15 minutes while they proceeded to make bread in front of us but not the very simple sandwich we ordered... it wasn't until i asked how long it would be that they even started making it... again with no other customers in the store. horribly weird vibes would not go back. essential baking has better bread anyway read more

No one acknowledged me when I walked in (guess eveyone except one was busy making bread in the back?). I see a display for samples, but nothing was available when I was there on a Saturday around noon. There was one lady in front of me, and it took a while for my turn. But the bread is tasty, especially the caramel apple monkey bread and daily sourdough. read more

Initially discovered this shop out in Beaverton Oregon when all I wanted was a cold sandwich. Didn't know I stumbled upon my favorite bread shop! Prices vary by location, and I'm not shocked that bread is a couple more dollars in Bellevue, but I'm willing to pay extra to have bread with ingredients I can pronounce! Staff is always kind and offers generous samples. They usually have more than a few different samples. The shop is nothing fancy, you get your bread and get out cause there isn't anywhere to eat inside and it can get crowded just standing around with three other people. Do yourself the favor and get the cinnamon loaf, it makes for a great gift and is yummy to eat toasted with butter at home. I put mine in the fridge to last longer! read more

I walked in and let the gentleman know it was my first time here, I was expecting to hear oh great welcome what are you looking for. That didn't happen. Well, First time here ‍‍. Noticed they have a rewards program (was not offered to me) little bit over priced. I asked about GF options he showed me a loaf already prepared. Only 1 gluten free option. I did t select that. Service was fair noting special. Mostly bread, no sandwiches for breakfast. They sell sandwiches for lunch only. Ambiance was ok, not very inviting. I choose a Harvest grain fruit bar made with oatmeal and mixed berries. It is ok, healthy not warmed. They had 2 coffee choices, I did not order coffee. I don't think I'll return. It's a nice place for locals and those in the neighborhood.i have it a 3/5 for potential not so much from my experience. Healthy yes. Possibly a family business, saw one other person baking and walking around. Not very friendly. read more

Had a really delicious hot turkey sandwich. While it required a ton of napkins, it was so very good- I wouldn't hesitate to get it again! I love that they have gluten free bread options! Very homey feel. Only thing is no seating available so I had to eat in my car, but still really good. read more

I love this chain with all my heart. So you can probably get a gauge of how happy I was to get these catered to my team training. I had no idea plain white bread could be that good. I do not know what they do with their bread to make it so textured and flavorful. Their plain white bread. I had the egg salad sandwich ($9.45 on website) and it was high quality and divine. read more

If happiness had a smell, it would be the cinnamon bread from Great Harvest in Bellevue! Walking in, you're instantly wrapped in the cozy aroma of freshly baked goodness. The cinnamon bread is pure magic -- soft, fluffy, and swirled with just the right amount of sweet, spicy cinnamon. It tastes like a warm hug on a rainy day. The staff is so friendly too, always with a smile and ready to share samples. Honestly, I dream about this bread. Treat yourself; you'll thank me later! read more

Even since I tried the mini Apple Crumble from delivery order, tried other loaves too, I am hooked on to this daily milled from wheat to flour bread. Even the soft white loaf is deliciously dense. This regular size Apple Crumble is not recommended to be sliced, but manually sliced upon my request. I prefer thicker cut. Also interesting to find Sweet Potato spread in the store. read more

Told them i had a serious nut allergy, i asked if the pumpkin chocolate bread had nuts, they said no. I asked again and said i had a serious allergy and they said no nuts in the bread. I bought it and went home and cut a piece. when i was about to eat it i noticed there were walnuts in it right before i took a bite. I went back to the bakery and asked them why they told me the bread didnt have nuts if it did, I also explained to them how dangerous that is. All they did is refund my bread not the tip i left, i asked for my tip back and they could not give it. they couldve given a gift card or my tip back, they did not deserve the tip also how they acted when i came back, they were more so irritated that i came back and complaine read more

Our favorite bread store. We usually get the whole wheat bread and their bread is different as it does not have sugar but is made with honey! The bread is soft and feels lighter than conventional bread! ... That also makes it expensive! The other breads we like are Challah which is super soft Asiago Pesto has a distinct delicious pesto taste, read more

This isn't just a great place to grab some lunch, but they also sell their bread for you to take home or bring it to a potluck, like I did. My husband picked up like 3 or 4 loaves of fresh bread for me to bring to my work potluck. It was amazing. The loaves had just been made and were still warm in the plastic bread bags. I would highly recommend this place, not only for the quality of their product but also the amazing variety they offer. Would highly recommend. read more

Love this bakery! They have such a wide variety to choose from. From nut free, gluten free and whole wheat options they have it all. My all time favorite has been the whole wheat raisin bread and cinnamon crunch loaf. Perfect breakfast options during these cold winter mornings. Pop them in the toaster and smother them with butter. The smell of it toasting is divine. Service is exceptional and they have great recommendations on new things to try out. While I was there I sampled their almond slice and can't wait to go back to buy more of it. Highly recommend this place. They have cookies to breads to cinnamon rolls etc. read more

Even though they are quite a few miles from my home, the bread selections are fantastic. And the breads taste so yummy. My favorites are the monkey bread and the apple crunch loaf.

My husband and I were recommended to come here through Yelp and drive 1.5 hours to give it a try. Customer service was disappointing. We requested two walnut chocolate brownie and two candy brownies and one chocolate walnut cookie. She only have us one of each brown and the cookie. She seemed very distracted, unfriendly and with little to no response. The cookie was really good! But the brownie was mouth watering- super moist and delicious! read more

Fresh assortment of bread can easily be found here. I love that Great Harvest has a steady assortment of breads here that I know I can come and get. We love getting the Cinnamon Crunch Loafbread as it makes for delicious French toast. The cookies are a fave here as well. For the holidays, I'm always here to order stuffing bread and dinner rolls. Some of the breads are great but some are heavier & denser than my personal preference. I definitely appreciate how I can call ahead and ensure that they hold my orders until I get off of work. read more

The samples are absolutely incredible and the service is impeccable. Very nice workers fresh food I feel very respected when I come in here.

We got takeout from this cafe after eating at their Fairbanks location and really liking it. Unfortunately some of our favorite sandwiches from the other franchise stores were not available at this one, but nonetheless we got the black bean patty sandwich and the egg salad sandwich. Both were fresh with moist bread and we loved the filling inside. I wish they would add Baja Chipotle Chicken to their menu. read more

Yummy bread and baked goods! Positives: Employees are patient and friendly. They have some samples. Coffee cake was delicious. Every variation I've tried have been has been yummy. Cinnamon chip bread was amazing as French toast. The peanut butter cookies and the chocolate walnut cookies are my favorite cookies. You just have to go early and on the days they make them. Negatives: Some prices are a bit high for what you get. Variety can depend on the baker, so you never know what they are going to have. Selection is limited toward the last half of the day. read more

After having a few bites of this sandwich, it was delightful. The toast was slightly crunchy at the start, but as you bite through and continue to eat it, you notice it is a very light texture. Soft and enjoyable! At the same time with the rest of the ingredients, I was able to taste the tomatoes, onions and the delicious moist tuna. Overall a good and enjoyable sandwich to have for lunch. One thing I would point out is the Christmas music they were playing in the back ground. I think it was great they were playing the classical Christmas tunes. However it would be more considerate to have the volume down a little, at least for someone like me. Good chance the coworker girls there were enjoying it as it is, but one should consider how the customers would feel about it. Not what was playing, just the level of the volume. Overall, very good experience and I look forward to try their other variety of sandwiches. Oh almost forgot, I had a two small samples of their sweet pastries. Forgot their names, but what I notice is their we're not too sweet, but soft and not too dry. This is a plus in my book! read more

We love their bread. We miss the Redmond location that closed sometime back, we had been regulars there. We were in Factoria and decided to get some bread from Great Harvest. We got a couple mini Cinnamon chip rolls, and a cheese garlic stick. As usual, we loved them both. Can't wait to go back and get more bread. read more

It's fine. Does everything you want it to but not disappointing. Overall good food and coffee place.

For your carb-loving heart and butt, Great Harvest Bread Co. is there for ya in the Factoria area. I've passed by Great Harvest countless times, with no idea of what they offered. But I'm glad I finally decided to stop in and check out all the treats. Located in a business strip, right next to QFC in the Factoria neighborhood, it's easy to find, with plenty of parking around. Great Harvest is strictly takeout only, as there are no dining tables inside. You're met with a counter full of baked goods and shelves of fresh loaves and buns. I bought a salted caramel brownie, which wasn't on the display case, but rather, on the cooling shelf. I inquired with the employee if they had more after seeing its label and they definitely did. Therefore, if you don't seen an item on the display counter, there's a good change they've baked more in the back. The brownie was solid. I'm a chocoholic, so it definitely filled my need. It was soft-baked with chunks of chocolate and salted caramel pieces. The salted caramel pieces were harder than expected, but not bad. I did like the big flecks of sea salt on top. With so many different breads, sandwiches and sweet offerings, it's worth a visit if you're in the area. Treat yo' self! read more

The breads made at Great Harvest are very good - especially the wonderful cinnamon chip !!

We used to go here all the time, but then it was closed for a long time. Today I was there for another store, and on my way out I was amazed to see that Great Harvest was open again! But from reviews here, it sounds like it must have reopened a long time ago?? I'm so confused. Anyway. We love the round cinnamon bread here. I picked one up today. Sandwiches are great here too. I used to get the honey wheat loaves here long ago. SO much better than anything you can find at a grocery store at any price. But then I started making our own sandwich bread in a breadmaker. Almost as good, and a much better fit for the budget, especially now with three teenage boys. If you like baked goods and live near Factoria, you owe it to yourself to give this bakery a try. read more

My first visit I told them I wanted a brownie with walnuts I came home and realized they gave me something different and it's not something I would order or would want to eat so I called they told me what they gave me by accident but never asked if I wanted to replace it and I was already home so I didn't know if I could take it back. Disappointing! read more

I love getting the hearty breads from Great Harvest! We live in the north end and I wish the Lake Forest Park location was still open, but driving down to Factoria was worth it! So many varieties of loaves, our favorite is the Dakota with sunflower and pumpkin seeds. You actually feel healthier after eating a slice! We also got a cinnamon roll which was pretty good but I wish they were more fluffy, and also wish they came with cream cheese frosting. I look forward to going back and trying more of their menu! read more

I stopped Yelping awhile ago because I felt I was feeding into the machine of people leaving overly positive or negative reviews that didn't do much for the regular customer. But after a series of mindblowingly inept service and/or products from this place, I had to say something. Whether its loaves of bread that are clearly old or sandwiches like the one pictured below, it's puzzling how this place stays in business. I try to not come here often but when I'm asked to pick up an order for my friends, I oblige. But seeing the two sad excuses for sandwiches I brought in today, the entire office laughed, one even saying 'that looks personal'. C'mon. I don't need you to be even be nice when I come in. Just give the basic money-to-quality product transaction. read more

I've been a frequent customer of Great Harvest for over 8 years. A top quality I love is the Montana wheat that Great Harvest uses and that they grind it fresh before starting the day's baking. Who knew that I'd love their Old-Fashioned White sandwich bread just as much as their Honey Whole Wheat. I would be forlorn without them! read more

I used to visit the Mountlake Lake Terrace location many many years ago and had memories of stepping through the door, being intoxicated by the aroma and greeted with a warm, fresh piece of bread and a slab of butter on it... Who could resist that and who could not buy several loaves of bread as a result?! Today I drove 8 miles to get a fresh loaf of that delicious bread because I was in Bellevue anyway, but my experience was so meh I didn't even buy a loaf of bread. It was about 8:15 AM, but this IS a bakery, so I wouldn't expect them to not have any fresh bread. I was sad to learn that they didn't have any bread that was baked today. They only had bread baked yesterday and it's the same price at $9 a loaf baked yesterday as today. At first I was told they didn't have any samples but then the gal said she could give me a slice of bread from the Sandwich bar so I accepted the offer. What I got was a heel slice with so little butter I could barely see it. The taste of the honey wheat was not remarkable. I was tasting some "other" flavor and I can't put my finger on what it was, but overall I was not a fan. I was pretty underwhelmed and decided to get a breakfast sandwich to experience what the Dakota bread might taste like. The sandwich was the size of a slider and the bread was so tough and dry, it looked and tasted like it had been microwaved. I wound up giving 3/4 of the sandwich to the crows but after that I ended up just leaving and not purchasing any bread to take home. Sorry to be writing such a review, I was so excited to get my hands on some of that good great harvest bread again, maybe a different location would be a better experience? I'll try Bellingham next time I'm there. read more

I ordered a loaf of challah, but what I got was just a dense, yeasty whole wheat bread shaped like challah. It's a perfectly fine tasting loaf of bread, but it is NOT challah.

If you like high-quality, fresh, legitimate real deal breads, then this place is for you! Visited about a week ago and after being quite impressed with the complimentary samples with butter got Honey Whole Wheat and Dakota for making tuna sandwiches at home they were a big hit around the house to say the least! This week, I am also looking forward to a loaf of the Yukon Sourdough. Would most certainly highly recommend easily a five-star experience and bread bakery. read more
