As I was passing down the street, I could smell some delicious smells coming from the Great Harvest Bread shop. I decided to stop in. The fresh bread and baked goods looked amazing. They were busy and the person behind the counter was doing a great job of taking care of everyone. The store is well organized and you can clearly see where to order and where to pick up and pay for your order. I discovered the smell that caught my attention was the pumpkin bread. It was only sold by the loaf, so I didn't get any. But, I will sure to come back and buy some of their delightful baked goods. read more

Bread is such a comfort food. I love walking in here to the aroma of freshly baked bread. I usually get their honey wheat or peasant white. I got the Dakota whole wheat today. It's really good, but pricey. I love savoring a toasted slice with butter and a hot cup of tea. read more

Great Harvest Bread - Very good, but pricey $8.95. - Bakeries Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

Tuesday 3/11/25 Everything stays the same compared to my previous review (monkey bread is still good) but I wanted to increase my rating to a 5/5 due to the spectacular service I experienced from the store manager Seth. We were trying to access my app rewards for great harvest bread so I could get my free goodie for my birthday but for some reason it wasn't fully set up with the Rockville location yet. He did his best in terms of trying to get it set up but the bosses were still working on the issue. To make sure my drive wasn't wasted, he kindly gave me a free monkey bread for my birthday. One thing to note was that while I was talking with him, another customer came by to give him thanks and praise which really goes to show how great he is at his job. read more

Huge Cream Cheese Frosted Cinnamon Rolls! Recently visited-seeking Cinnamon Roll. Wow-their newest Cinnamon Roll creation is Huge, Slathered w/a creamy Cream Cheese Frosting. Definitely shareable. Absolutely Delicious. They still offer a variety fresh baked breads & quick breads including pumpkin spice & blueberry & chocolate biscotti on day I visited. Also got a loaf of Country White Bread. Also good & great toasted. Friendly Courteous Customer Service. See Photos! read more

Went here to grab a round challah for the Jewish new year. They had a few options so I decided to get something a little unique. I got the cinnamon chip challah and I was not disappointed. The cinnamon chips were so perfect and the consistency of the bread itself was light and airy. The bread was dairy free so I was able to have it. It was almost cake-like. It's definitely a little more pricey (about 10/11 dollars) so I wouldn't get it too often but it's a great option if you want to treat yourself. read more

Great Harvest Bread - Cinnamon Chip - Bakeries Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

Their scones are amazing. My favorite are the raspberry ones. I recently discovered them and will be purchasing in the future.

I love just about everything I've ever bought from GHB. Their bread is amazing as are their chocolate chip cookies w/walnuts!!!! I recently tried their hot-cross buns. I'd never had them before & saw them on the webpage while placing an order. Since placing my order I researched & discover they're symbolic of Easter and the cross. Knowing this I was disappointed to receive my order & discover my Hot "cross" buns were actually Hot "line down the middle" buns. Whether you're religious or not I would've appreciated receiving something similar to the named item ordering . On a positive note I did appreciate & find the frosting used to be quite tasty & complementary to the roll. read more

Drove 30 mins to get a couple loaves of bread - and they don't slice bread Great Harvest Bread doesn't slice bread. Avoid at all costs. Honestly the bread did not even look that good. read more

I've been a fan of Great Harvest (and this Rockville location specifically) for a year now, and would recommend checking it out if you're willing to splurge for some good bread. My favorite is one of their fall specialties, the Pumpkin Yumpkin - a fluffy-textured bread with pumpkin with chocolate chips. I'm not super into pumpkin but this one is soo good. The cinnamon breads (Cinnamon Blast, specifically) and scones are also great. I actually live much closer to the Columbia location, but this one definitely has a lot more options and specialty breads. My only problem is with the prices- I was a little hesitant to pay $10 for the pumpkin bread last year, and when I went back yesterday, the price raised to $12.95. Personally, I just can't justify paying $13 for a medium-sized loaf despite how much I love it - so it looks like this will be a once-in-a-while splurge for me. read more

Great Harvest Bread - Pumpkin Yumpkin - try it! - Bakeries Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

Ever since new owners took over, they sell old pumpkin bread as if it were new. It tastes stale and develops mold after only a couple of days. Gross! And they are mean when you show them the problem. read more

Scrumptious fresh bread! The Great Harvest locations in MD and VA have their own special menu and unique selection of loaves. Glad I made the trek from McLean to Rockville to try Rockville's specialty loaves - Chocolate Babka, Cinnamon Blast, and Pumpkin Yumkin. Totally worth it! Cinnamon Blast (5/5) - Brioche bread with a brown sugar cinnamon swirl. While the bread was a bit dense, with a touch of melted butter, it was heavenly. The loaf is quite large and almost a foot. It didn't last too long in our house before my hubby and I devoured it! Pumpkin Yumpkin (4/5) - While the loaf is oozing with chocolate chips in every bite, it overpowers the subtle pumpkin flavor. I LOVE chocolate chips, but the dense loaf didn't pair well with pumpkin and didn't have the sweet savory flavor I was hoping for. Banana pairs the best with chocolate chips. A simple Pumpkin spice loaf would be nice (which I believe the bakery offers). Alas, I finished the loaf and delightfully crossed it off my foodie bucket list, fun to try! Chocolate Babka (3/5) - Hubby's favorite! Similar to the Cinnamon Blast, dense brioche bread with swirls of rich chocolate layers. The ratio between bread and chocolate was a bit low, wish there was more chocolate! The bread keeps well for around 5 days with twist tie diligence! I enjoyed our bread feast with decadent loaves. The Rockville bakery is quite crowded with heavy foot traffic, everyone was Covid compliant - wearing a mask and stood 6 feet apart. The cozy Vienna location has a lot less foot traffic with divine Focaccia that's super fluffy, try it! Definitely worth a trip from Rockville. Love trying different loaves of bread in MD and VA, looking forward to some new variety! read more

New Management shows that they do not care about the customers, they never offer enough pastries on the table nor behind the counter. I have been coming to GHB for years and during Mardi Gras the previous owners used to offer King Cakes Plentiful!!! On a Saturday morning during Mardi Gras the place would offer both King Cakes and Muffins. This past Saturday was the first time I walked out empty handed because I was told to place an order and only certain things could be available after 2p and when I asked why didn't they put that on the flyer the woman stated that they aren't busy during Mardi Gras, which is a Lie!!! In the past as an Educator I could walk in and grab muffins and King Cakes for my students and this year I could only offer a Giant Food King Cake that was dry to my students. The inside does not feel welcoming anymore nor did the employees greet the customers, maybe they are closing but I am hurt how my last experience with GHB ended. read more

Terrible service from management. Two weeks ahead of time, I ordered two loaves of a special bread they make and ordered online. $22 for the two loaves!!! Their latest pickup time they offered for the day is 2:15, yet they are open until 5pm. I wanted to see if I can come in later as the 2:15 did not work with my workday and ask if they could hold my order until 4pm when I could come pick it up. I called the store several times for three days in a row--no answer, sent an email that is listed on their site, and sent a message through their "contact us" option on their site. I did not receive any replies back in a week's time. I then wanted to cancel my order, but there seems to be no option to do so and they already charged my credit card. So not cool. I don't care how good your bakery is, I will never come back because of this frustration and terrible service. What a poorly operated, non-community oriented business. read more

Sorry $1 is not enough to get me to return to being a customer. I had been one for the past 6 years since moving to NORTH BETHESDA. Not sure what ever happened to the "customer is always right" approach to customer service. According to my Apple Pay I have spent $1,885.10 since 2019. But you weren't willing to honor a $5 coupon. read more

Although nothing for the Vegan Crew (a few Gluten Free/Vegetarian options) I'm giving 4 stars for the uber friendly employee who looked everywhere to see if I could delight in anything. Not to fret, my friend picked up bags of cookies & a loaf for his Sister. A homegrown, organic & all that good stuff bakery, that also serves as a Cafe in some locations. The menu lists freshly milled whole grain & the company's initiative on baking with pure & simple ingredients. Just the aroma alone will get you hooked. GHB is not offering just breads alone, the selections varies from Muffins, Scones, Biscuits, Tea Cakes, Artisan specialty Breads & Salads. Their highlighted offering is the Honey Whole Wheat & national breads such as the Dakota with other seasonal items - Green Chili Cheese Bread. From the original Founders to now employee owned with Franchising opportunities, the Great Harvest's mission is more than baked goodies, as they are happily giving back while being loose & having fun. Hand clap for their culture & community participation. The friendly employee did mention to check back as new creations are always being 'baked up'...get it? read more

Great Harvest Bread - Chocolate brownie bread - Bakeries Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

I love great harvest's pumpkin bread. Though I noticed it has gotten smaller then before the rise in prices. I think it's because of inflation. Service is okay, nothing over the moon about it. The inside is simple looking. A good place to get your breads on. read more

This place has a good selection of breads and muffins. Stopped in several months ago while in the area to check it out. I bought a muffin and Jewish Apple Cake, which I hadn't had for many years. It was very fresh and delicious, but a bit pricey at $10.95 for the medium size. However, I can't find JAC anywhere in my area and love it. Parking was horrible, but I managed to find a spot. read more

The smell of fresh bread will hit you like a ton of bricks when you walk in but you'll actually like it. The smell is so refreshing and honestly makes you feel like you can't leave empty handed. I think they were extremely smart in appealing to our senses first. The challah bread which is their classic is the best imo. I try and keep a fresh loaf on the table to snack off of and it's also great for any dinner. read more

A1 customer service! Everyone there is super attentive and helpful. I love the delicious aroma of the store. Everything is carefully crafted and put together. Love their products, I have tried so many different breads, cakes, and cookies and never been dissatisfied. 100% recommended! Great job! read more

First, let's get this out of the way. Great Harvest is not your local hole in the wall Bakery. It's a franchised business, and there's like I believe close to a hundred locations of Great harvest around the country. That being said, their bread is freakin' delicious. I got the white bread and the challah when I was there last. They'll serve you sample of bread with butter to taste which is fantastic. Their regular white bread is so soft and fluffy and delicious. A wonderful crumb. If you're looking for a super crusty roll, this might not be the place for you. If you're someone who cares about the health of your soft and hard palate, this is the place for you. The woman who was working there when I went was very kind. I kinda changed my mind on how many loafs I was buying last minute, and she didn't blink an eye. I then took this bread to an event, where I subsequently got like 10-15 people asking me where I got this bread :) Yeah, it is that good. I'd go much more often if one was close to me. read more

If you are wanting to find some great bread, cookies, scones, or cinnamon rolls in MoCo then go here. Great Harvest Bread has a lot of great breads like the Blueberry Lemon and Pumpkin Yumpkin. They also have Honey Whole Wheat on a consistent basis. They even have daily Specials like the Margherita Pizza Bread on Tuesdays and the Spinach Provolone on Wednesdays. Bottom line: If you are in the Rockville Area and want some good bread, take a trip here. read more

Wide variety of delicious breads and other baked goods. There are plenty of generously portioned samples at the front counter for customers to try. The menu changes daily, and there are so many delicious things to choose from. The pizza bread is my absolute favorite, but it's gets harder and harder to find. However, I just found out that the store offers printed monthly menus wish should take away a lot of the guesswork. The peach bread pudding was okay, but could use a bit more cinnamon and a little more sugar. The pumpkin cream cheese roll is nothing short of addictive. So yummy! The challah bread is superb. Some of the best I've had. read more

I should stay away from carbs, but their Margherita Pizza Bread keeps calling me back to Great Harvest Bread. It's their new bread, which has tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil, like a real margherita pizza! Since it has tomatoes, the bread gets a little moist in the bag so best to keep it in the fridge. It taste even better when you toast a little to melt the cheese. I also still enjoy their Popeyes bread, which has spinach and provolone. They're chocolate chip cookies are amazing too! They offer free samples, if you don't know what you want, get a slice of them all. Their bread is supposedly baked fresh daily so check their website to see what they have each day. If you buy bread often, get their stamp card. read more

Great Harvest Bread - Popeyes - Bakeries Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

I love walking in here. The smell of fresh bread, generous sized samples, and friendly staff. My favorite is the Xtreme Cinnamon Swirl. Although I can only have it once in awhile, this 100% whole wheat loaf is so delicious. It has just the right amount of cinnamon and brown sugar where it's not overly sweet. Makes a great treat! I also enjoy their Honey Whole Wheat and Challah breads. I have yet to try their other items (cookies, muffins, scones, etc.), but I hear their cookies are good. I love the fact that their whole grain breads are only made with five ingredients and some of their breads stay fresh for up to ten days (I usually finish them before those, though)! read more

If I could write in establishment based on the smell I would rate this place at 10... Even though Yelp only goes up to five stars I feel confident in rating the smell a solid 10. Even if you come in thinking you are just going to look, the smell will cause you to buy everything in sight. The great harvest bread store is not very big but it is full of amazing bread. I stopped in with a coworker around 12 o'clock. I interacted with two different employees and both were extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the products. I was able to try about three or four different types of bread. I enjoyed each sample and was surprised at the size. By the time I left the store I was no longer thinking about lunch. I also realized that the store sells more than just bread! There were muffins, bread pudding, buns, rolls, really anything you would find in a bakery. I would've rated this place five stars but it is on the expensive side. I was looking at buying a loaf of bread and it was eight dollars. A similar product could be bought down the street for half the price. However; there is something to be said about the quality of the bread sold here. The fact that the bread is made on site daily is worth the difference in price. I ended up buying a lemon blueberry muffin and was very satisfied. I can see myself stopping in on special occasions or fancy dinners. I definitely recommend checking this place out especially if you are in the need for High quality bread or rolls. read more

Very disappointing. They are just starting to bake when they open at 9. When I've purchased the previously baked bread in plastic bags it's been dry and not remotely the same experience. Why open at 9 if fresh baked bread isn't available until 11:30?? Not likely to come again. read more

Everyone here was so friendly and helpful! THe Dakota and HoneyWhole breads were delightful!

Great Harvest has been donating hundreds of pounds of breads/ muffins / scones / cakes/ cookies weekly. The shut ins and the shelters, the patients and the staff at these places that receive the donations ... Ask that you support Great Harvest And Thank them for their support to the less fortunate in our community! And the pumpkin chocolate chip anything is unbelievably good!!! Get some today! read more

Staff was extremely patient and helpful in suggesting breads and giving generous samples. I sampled the Dakota, which I loved! Some of their samples were freshly baked and warm. I ended up getting the mystery pack of rolls for only 3.95. I couldn't help myself, I loved the bread so much. The mystery rolls were an assortment of Dakota bread in roll form, honey whole wheat rolls, and white rolls. All were delicious and not too pricey! read more

Great breads and good cookies. They use simple ingredients and display the ingredients on the label for most if not all of their items. Easy curbside pickup during covid. Park in a designated spot and then call and they will bring it to you. You can also place the order over the phone in advance if you have a coupon to use and do not want to go into the store. When we went on a Friday morning before the high holidays, there was a long line outside waiting to go in. I suggest ordering in advance if you can. The challah is very good and the cookies are good. The best cookie was he oatmeal raisin if you like soft and chewy. The pumpkin chocolate chip was just ok - a bit dry. The scone was also a bit dry. The best item was the cinnamon blast bread! (If you like cinnamon) Try making French toast with this. You will never want to use a regular bread for French toast again. Give great harvest a try. This was our first time trying it and we will be back! read more

Friendly staff and delicious bread!! We could smell the deliciousness from outside the store. We were first timers, so we had no clue what to get. The lady at the counter helped us decide and we were so pleased! We got the fresh baked Challah bread and the Apple Pie Bread. We will be back. They were amazing. read more

I like the breads at Great Harvest, but I continually go back for the pastries! I love the giant cookies! At over $2 a cookie, it seems a little steep, but they are big! My favorite is the Chocolate Chip with Walnuts. They also sell cookies in packages of 6 for about $11. My ultimate favorite item is the Chocolate Brownie Muffin/Teacake/Bread, which is Vegan! I recently tried their Chocolate Chip Pecan Biscotti for the first time, and they are so good. Very very dense and hard; you'll definitely need to dunk it or cut into pieces. read more

Not the same without samples and happy greetings. I understand it's post Covid and we need to be safe. One young (student) working. One pumpkin muffin. Just okay. read more

I can't say enough great things about Great Harvest Bread. Unfortunately, the parking situation can be a nightmare, but I wouldn't penalize a business (especially this one) by removing a star just because the parking lot gives me a migraine sometimes, because that's not their fault. Their bread is always fresh, consistent, delicious, and the staff are always friendly. I love that they have samples to try before you purchase. I wish I could say I go there often because I love giving them my business, but I am so weak that I have to resist and stay away as much as I can so I don't walk out with a handful of pastries or bread. Sometimes I will purchase various items if I am hosting a party or if I am invited to a dinner party, and people are constantly praising the baked goods and are so eager to visit the bakery for themselves. Can't wait to visit soon! read more
