Oh my they may be the only store that are baking fresh hot bread out of oven and serving it to you. And you are 100 percent hook after you have tried their free samples with butter

The store smelled wonderful upon walking in. Got the Cinnamon Burst and Pumpkin Spice breads. The cinnamon burst is packed with delicious cinnamon flavor in every bit. I'm usually not a fan of pumpkin spice foods, but I tried it. It was very moist and the pumpkin isn't overwhelming. It was the right amount! This place will be added to my favorites. More...

I have not been to a store of any kind in NOVA where the employees were nicer than those at Great Harvest. They have flavor combos I've nvr even heard of which were 2 good, and they even have vegan options! Totally fabulous!

This is one of the best local bakeries in all of Northern Virginia. I have been to both locations and this one is closer to my home and work. My son loves to come here every weekend after swimming to try samples and get a free cookie in exchange for some kid drawing at the community table. They just introduce soups with a partnership and they are very tasty. When you stop by get a monthly calendar to know which breads are made daily. Their staff is always friendly and welcome you with smiles. We are a repeat customer for nearly 5 years. More...

I love their "Apple Scrapple"! Everything I've tried there is good, and they always have free samples. Diplomacy on the part of the counter person I dealt with could stand some improvement.

If you want really fresh bread of every variety, then this is definitely where you need to go. They cater to everyone; those who loke gluten free, those who like it sweet, and those who like it traditional like me. They make the best original white or honey wheat bread. Best time to go is Sunday mornings because they make a lot more that day so there will be a lot of options that day. Love this place! More...

Such a pleasure to go to this store! They have a seriously amazing customer service ethic! I wish I could bottle it and share it with all retail stores. Of course, the bread is amazing, fresh and so tasty. Low carbs? Stay far away - but if you indulge, this is worth the trip. Don't forget to say "yes" to a sample with some butter. More...

BEST BAKERY IN ALEXANDRIA!!Love the tasting table. We are always greeted with the offer to sample a number of different fresh baked treats. The sourdough bread is the best in the area. The only problem is that it’s baked goods are just too good! I cannot eat grocery store bread any more. More...

I️ am just in town for the week before heading back overseas and wanted some fresh baked goods. This place is absolutely perfect with wonderful daily options. Incredibly friendly staff who answered all of my questions while offering me some tasters off of the “board.” The pumpkin chocolate chip bread was so fresh and not overly sweet, while the cinnamon roll didn’t even make it home. Thanks for a lovely morning before I️ fly out! I️ will definitely be back here. More...

Everything we've tried from Great Harvest has been some of the best--bread, muffins, cookies--we've had. You can't go wrong here.

Great selection. Wonderful staff. Heads up, this isn't a European style bakery. They make bread along with muffins, scones, quickbreads, and cookies, but that's about it pastry-wise (they will rotate in other sweets, too, though). The breads are eastern European style (think babka). Soft, pillowy, some are a touch sweet (not in the bad way). Come here for the soft, heavy, yummy breads. Don't look for baguettes here. They do sell sourdough, but it's made in the soft crust style and isn't sour enough for me, so I'd pass on that if you're expecting a typical loaf. More...

Great Harvest in Alexandria rocks! Always fresh bread and sweets. Check website for hours and daily and monthly specials. Best whole wheat bread, ever . Buy 12 loaves (any type) and 13th loaf is free. You know the folks there are proud of their products and take great care in preparing on site what they sell. Check out the free samples.Update 02/02/2018: Let me just say, first what a joy it is to visit this store. The smell of the bakery starts one's salivary glands flowing and all of the days product on the racks get one's stomach growling for all the great tastes laid out before it. The sourdough bread I got today is *the*best*ever"! Great texture, mouth-watering aroma, and marvelous sour flavor. All signs of a mature starter. I like Great Harvest Alexandria's version much better than the dark, chared, sometimes burnt tasting stuff that San Franciscans seem to all rave about. Besides that hard crust from the West coast hurts to bite into! The light-colored chewy crust and dense texture reminds me of my Grandmother's sourdough bread, biscuits, cobblers, and pancakes. In the late 1970's she was still using a starter that dated back to 1843. The loaf we got today at Great Harvest Alexandra was perfect for toasting, which really brings out its aroma and flavor. We had it with a robust Greek olive oil, fresh mozzarella, basil and Campari coctail tomatoes. The perfect combination for your wonderfully flavored sour dough bread. Thank you, Great Harvest, Alexandia for taking such pride In your product. More...

I love this place! We have a standing order for challah every Friday. My husband and I are divided on challah - he prefers very soft and doughy, but I find that underdone. Somehow this place manages a perfect bake for both of us.We've also tried several other tasty treats. The pesto and cheese bread is fantastic toasted and covered in sliced tomatoes or dipped into soup. The scones are perfect with coffee for weekend breakfasts - I'm partial to the cinnamon chip. The biscotti, lemon bars, cinnamon rolls, and short bread were also terrific. I don't think I've ever had a dud at Great Harvest. More...
