Great Harvest Bread Co - Herndon

BEST BAKERY! Absolute kindest people and delicious and beautiful baked goods. My family is from Louisiana and this is the best king cake in the NOVA area by far. The challah and chocolate muffins were also fabulous. Love this place!

This place is delicious! The staff was very lovely and helpful! The woman working the counter opened up an entire new loaf of pumpkin chocolate chip so I could try a sample. We picked up 4 cinnamon rolls and pumpkin chocolate chip bread and it was like $12! Very reasonably priced and all of it was spectacular! Would recommend!

I absolutely adore this establishment. So grateful that it is located in our cute town of Herndon. Always welcoming and nice. Thank you for being such a pleasant place to visit! The Swedish rye and sourdough bread are my favorites.

STAFF IS AMAZING!! They are all super sweet! As soon as you walk in they offer you a free sample! Their bread is on point! So many flavors and amazing soup kits to pair with. Don’t get me started on the pastries! They know how to bake. The scones are divine…..cookies are scrumptious. And I tried this seasonal pastry with peaches! RUN don’t walk because I am going to make them sell out!

Well, I live in Herndon and I buy bakery "things" here, not as frecquently as I want, mostly because the ridiculous hours the store is open. I must confess that I am from Argentina, and as an Italian-Spanish blood human, bread is a HUGE thing. "Sundays are closed?" In what universe people do not eat fresh bread on Sundays? And you close at 5pm! It's tea time! (in Argentina bakeries start the second batch of bread and pastries at that time). But OK, I am here. It is what it is... But today (12/13/2025) I bought dinner rolls, Christmas Stollen and a Lil Eggnogg Cake. The dinner rolls dough was not as good as before, it tastes to yeast A LOT, and a little dry, however they do not look overcooked. So, pay attention to the recipe, something was not ok. The Lil Eggnog cake was good. Very EXPENS
