Great harvest is under new ownership and the scones are much improved from what they used to be! I had an orange cranberry scone. It was very big, so think of their scones as about two scones for the $4.50 price. Cut it in half and you’re all set for at least two people!

Thrilled that this place is under new ownership- finally!!! It’s so much cleaner and the service is so much more friendly. Totally worth going back if you’ve been holding off.
A note to the reviewers who say the scones are dry- scones are supposed to be dry!!!!

The staff and new owner of great harvest are so welcoming! Even on busy days when I have visited every customer is greeted and offered samples.
I love that I can grab breakfast or lunch with a coffee here during my work day. The staff has great flavor suggestions for lattes and pairing with baked items!

I am in love with Great Harvest Bread Company. Their breads are excellent, the staff is kind and warm, their sandwiches are unbelievably palatable, and their desserts knock you off your feet. I’d recommend it for every meal of the day.

Staff are very friendly here. They immediately greeted us and served us a hearty sample of their cranberry nut bread. We ended up getting a raspberry lemon scone and monkey bread. The scone was pretty dry and not memorable, which was disappointing. 5/10. The monkey bread was good but I’ve had better. 7.5/10.
Overall, I’d probably drop by here one more time but I won’t be a regular.
Also, I asked about a student discount and was told by an employee that they don’t have student discounts, and that Northwestern actually ignored their request for a collab. However, Northwestern’s student discount page literally lists Great Harvest (this exact location) as a partner for 10% off…?

I met the most pleasant lady who assisted me perfectly to create the wonderful $andwich I had, wow! Who would of thought a turkey $andwich could taste the way this one did. First off the selection of fresh bread to choose from mesmerize you from the fresh $mells but the Popeye bread was my choice and ohh was it a choice. The turkey was tinder and moist, nice $lice of provolone cheese, crispy lettuce, a nice amount of mustard (no too much that’s overwhelming or too little with no taste) and the recommendation to try the pickled onions was probably better decision than the Popeye bread. Must have again, lol but Ms Kate was the most pleasant person and her recommendation are truly the most tasteful will be back for more!

I’m so happy Great Harvest is at the helm of a wonderful new owner! Good luck Kate! I’ve been coming for years and the old owner was not warm or welcoming and the product inconsistent. I CAN’T figure out the few bad reviews. Maybe they are not used to fresh ground in house flour and healthy, quality ingredients. Some bakeries add dough conditioners, hydrogenated oils and more to make a softer moister product. But if you are looking for highest quality, natural breads & desserts, this is the best. Free samples! The basic honey Whole Wheat is always moist and flavorful. They have a low carb Dakota Bread that’s whole grain and yummy and when you want to splurge, indulge on the Apple Scrapple! (worth an extra work out !) I’ve never had scones, which is what some bad reviews were about, but read all the 5 star reviews instead! In fact, you should ADD a 5 star review to try to battle this lower rating from the previous owner.

Amazing baked goods. The store design itself is amazing and the food is wonderful. The atmosphere of the store is truly a great place to be. The staff are always attentive, nice, and always ask how you are doing. Kate and her team are always great. I would recommend this store to anybody in the area. My favorite bakery by far in Evanston.
