Great Harvest Bread Co.

I am gluten free but fortunately I can frequent restaurants that may have potential for cross contamination. This is a risk I consider my responsibility to determine for myself. I appreciate that not everyone can take that riskbutl I have ordered and eaten here many many times in the past. For some reason today the cashier is Not willing to serve me as I asked if the chicken salad was gluten free. Apparently they will not assume the risk of me possibly getting sick. Folks, I'm in a bread store, I know the risk I am willing to order, pay and consume the food but apparently the cashier felt she was not comfortable selling me a sandwich? Today is the day I stop eating here and will be sure to let everyone I know why. That's ridiculous. They offer gluten free bread but won't serve people who ask to clarify what items are gluten free?

They only have gf power bars. They do NOT have bread/buns etc.

I was a life time fan of this place before going GF. Now I can only eat a handful of things there however it is a great lunch place. They have GF bread on Mondays and I believe Friday’s (call to confirm before heading over). They offer salads as well. They do have GF cookies once in awhile but they contain nuts which I’m allergic to. There is definitely cross contamination so celiacs stay away :( But if you are just sensitive you should be ok.

Celiac friendly?

No

This guy was so rude. I walked in and said.. I see you have a sign up for gluten free... and he says "are you celiac?" I said "yes..." proceeds with dirty, mean look and shakes head no.

Um... please don't have a movie sized poster in your window about gluten free if you don't offer gluten free items that are safe to eat. Rude.

Call ahead otherwise plan on it being a wasted drive. Purchased soda bread, shortcake and biscotti because that is all the had. The bread was lacking in flavor. The short cake and biscotti were definitely better.

Edit: They had regular shortbread mixed in with gluten free items. Didn’t discover until I got sick from it. My fault for not reading label but had grabbed from the gluten free shelf.

Went in as there are giant signs saying that they have gluten free bread and pastries in the front windows. I picked out a small tea cake ($7) and as I hand my card to the register worker, he asks if I’m celiac. I reply that I’m gluten intolerant. He says basically that there is flour everywhere and cross contamination is probable. I asked if the ingredients were gluten free and he replied with yes, but stuff happens. So I leave with the bread since I had already paid for it, and I am not great with social stuff. I guess I should have just canceled the transaction. I had a small piece with coffee this morning, and it doesn’t taste good enough to risk the gluten possibility so I’m not going to eat more and can’t properly assess the contamination this one time. It’s super sweet and strange tasting. But, you all should know that they don’t stand by their gluten free products being anywhere near gluten free, and anyone on this app for gluten making them sick and not just a trend diet should probably avoid. Why they have a huge sign in the window advertising their gluten free bread is a mystery.
