NARRATOR: The story starts before dawn with stone milled whole grain wheat. Add a little bit of honey. And boom, this just happened. That just happened. It happened this morning, and it will happen again tomorrow wherever there is an appetite for something real and something really good, which is pretty much everywhere. At Great Harvest, we believe in bread. And we believe that bread at its best makes everything around it better. So we decided early on that Great Harvest wouldn't be a chain. It would be a link to an old fashioned way of doing things that today feels very fresh, to bread, the way it ought to be. Every Great Harvest Bakery and Cafe is as unique as the community it serves. There is no cookie cutter recipe. There are, however, lots of cookies and handcrafted signature sandwiches, where what's on the top and bottom is as tasty as what's in between. Homemade soups and salads, and grain bowls, a killer coffee and espresso bar, and that unmistakable irresistible aroma of freshly baked breads. Their wheat berry is milled every morning on site from the grains of Montana's Golden Triangle. This is where the greatest wheat in the world comes from. And this is where it all comes together, every morning just before dawn at an old-fashioned neighborhood bakery and cafe, where good ingredients matter, where local flavor matters, where words like real and fresh still means something, and where the bread means everything. One bite and you'll believe in Great Harvest.
Bread. The way it ought to be.®
The story of our bread starts with local, family-owned farms in Montana’s Golden Triangle, the best wheat source on earth. We hand select only the best of the best wheat kernels through rigorous testing and strict quality standards. The most impressive specimens are sent to Great Harvest Bread Co. bakery cafes in neighborhoods across the country, where they will become the centerpiece of your favorite phenomenal baked goods.
Each Great Harvest bakery cafe mills our exceptional wheat into fresh flour every day to unlock the complex flavor profiles in each kernel. This extra step makes our products naturally delicious and nutritious. We use old-fashioned methods and simple, recognizable ingredients to complement the sweet, nutty taste of our wheat. If you are used to mass-produced bread from your grocery store, full of air and additives, the taste of our bread made from fresh milled flour will stop you in your tracks. Swing by our breadboard and enjoy a free slice. Once you taste our bread, you’ll want to bring a loaf home to share with your family
Learn more about our wheat.
We started making bread with five simple ingredients, including freshly milled, perfect kernels of wheat. That simple recipe created bread so good, it was shared by Great Harvest’s founders with their friends and family. Three decades later, our 200+ bakery cafes are proud to serve as local “Bread Heavens,” making exceptional baked goods available in their communities.
Today, we are more than just bread stores where you stop by to grab a loaf. We’ve grown to become comfortable bakery cafe destinations where you can sit and enjoy your food at every meal. Your local Great Harvest Bread Co. now serves up a range of tasty treats, including a mix of breakfast sandwiches, cafe beverages, goodies, artisan breads, hot and cold sandwiches, salads, soups, and grain bowls, all in a full spectrum of crave-worthy flavor combinations that go beyond the expected.

At Great Harvest, we are committed to making exceptional bread. We are a bread company first, and above all, we do bread right. That means we use simple, honest ingredients and the best baking methods rather than the fastest or cheapest way. It takes longer, but we’ve found there are no shortcuts to making exceptional bread, and that’s what we are here to do. Our approach to bread making and business has always been to do things the right way, and as our menu has grown, that philosophy extends to our other products as well.
When you order a sandwich at your neighborhood bakery cafe, you get fresh, real food, made by a real person who is happy to make it for you. The outside of your sandwich will be as good as the inside. It will be served on bread that is not just fresh baked, but also freshly made from fresh ground flour — instead of frozen, mass-produced dough.
It may be the best sandwich you’ve ever tasted. On the best bread you’ve ever tasted. You may realize you’ve never had a sandwich on fresh bread before this. You will probably remember this sandwich and want to come back for another one. And another. That is why we don’t cut corners.
Stop by one of our neighborhood bakery cafes and see for yourself. We’ll save you a slice!
