Great Harvest Bread Company

Great fresh bread, so addictive. The bakery there is also delicious.

I guess I found new place to buy bread from now on. This is my new favorite bakery, found this place through Unilocal,I got to try samples, their prices are pretty steep, but when you taste their products you’ll understand, last time I was there I got a dollar loaf of bread because they had made to many loaves. I will be going back.

Yum! I can’t say a single negative thing. I am SO glad they started doing sandwiches, I am NEVER disappointed!

Came here for breakfast during a work trip in Wisconsin. This was pretty much the only place that was open and we were delighted and welcomed by the smells of sweet bread.
GHB makes their own bread and granola in-​house and also sells giant cookies, oils (olive/​rosemary/​garlic) and pre-​made soup mixes. A huge bag of fresh pecan granola was only 8!
I ordered the pumpkin chocolate muffin and some granola and it was super yummy! The muffin was kind of greasy but it was definitely tasty and fresh– prob because it came out of the oven hours before!
The store also has a frequent punch card and the wonderful woman at the counter gave me 2 punches! (13 punches get you a free item, I believe!) I would have definitely stayed longer if not for a meeting.

I love this place! Been going here a few years. The prices are not for the faint of heart but they certainly reflect the taste of the bread! It’s delicious! If you want «as good as it gets» bread, this is the place to try!

Oregon herb? Cinnamon swirl? Cold butter to spread on as many samples as you want? Yes please.
Here’s what you need to do. Go buy yourself some nice aged cheddar from the Sendiks across the street. Pick up a loaf of oregon herb bread. Hello grilled cheese. Really the perfect bread for just about any sandwich you could want.

happened to stop into the Elm Grove location after missing our WFB store that closed. The owner spoke with me about some of the numerous new items he has brought into the store, including fresh biscotti (wonderful) and apple turnovers, and a cinnamon crunch bread that was absolutely delicious! (he told me his family does it up as french toast!) will give that a try. I have to say that the store was spotless, offered friendly, timely service and everyone was extremely knowledgable about the products. I will be driving to Elm Grove to get some of the best bread offered in the city! AND, for all the people searching for great products that are gluten-​free, well they have numerous items offered here!

Good fresh bread. Cinnamon roll is amazing! Especially toasted with peanut butter.
A bit pricey.
The Wauwatosa location is always very low on stock/​selection by the time I get there after work.
They have a stand at the downtown Ziedler park farmers market.

The first time I had bread from Great Harvest I was 11 or 12 years old. I couldn’t afford to buy the bread myself, but my friend and I would bike here and get big sample slices for free. Fast forward 14 – 15 years, and I still like this place. Maybe I’m sentimental about this location (it is a chain), but the owner is awesome and the bread is delicious.
Why I like Great Harvest:
1) The bread. Sooo good.
2) They grind the wheat there, which means super fresh bread. They make the loaves fresh every day.
2) You can have a free sample of anything before you buy it.
3) They have amazing sweet and savory things, and not just bread (the roll-​ups, muffins & coffee cake are good, too).
4) The owner will set aside bread for you (one time, I was visiting a friend’s family on the east coast and the owner held a loaf of the cinnamon pull apart for me so I could take it along).
5) They donate the unsold bread at the end of the day to food shelters, which I interpret to mean they care about the greater community.
Seriously, this bread is delicious. I make sure to make a stop here every time I am back in Wisconsin visiting family and then try not to eat it all in one sitting!
