Harvest Kitchen & Bakery

Got sick, food was also near flavourless - even spoke to the chef & was reassured strictly GF. $60 for brunch to spend 3 days recovering - will not be back.

Chef Lori was amazing during a recent brunch with family. She took the time to explain their cross contamination protocol and made us feel very welcome. The food was incredible and the staff were very knowledgeable on gluten free and celiac disease. Kids loved the food and we look forward to coming again.

The BEST gluten free restaurant in HOUSTON!

I’ve been twice & have talk to the executive chef twice because she is so awesome!

From pancakes to beautiful sandwiches and desserts! Soooooo many choices and completely safe.

I go out of my way to eat here. Can’t wait to go back!

Harvest Kitchen & Bakery is my absolute favorite restaurant! I cannot eat gluten or eggs (and many nuts). It's VERY hard to find a restaurant you can trust to ensure no cross-contamination! Most restaurants don't even know what gluten is, and when you say you need gluten-free, they look at you confused. This is not the case at Harvest Kitchen and Bakery. They will ask about food allergies before you even order and fill out a paper to notify the person who takes your order and the kitchen. They take food allergies seriously! Harvest Kitchen has a dedicated gluten-free fryer, so you can actually enjoyed fried foods! It's one of the few restaurants that has desserts that I can eat!! So, all of that is really nice and gives you peace of mind, but wait until you try the food! The food is off the charts amazing! There is not shortage of creativity, flavor, quality, or quantity in their food! Wait until you see the presentation. Everyone always takes pictures because each plate is a work of art! Trust me! Run, don't walk straight to Harvest Kitchen. If you are not in the Katy area, it's definitely worth the drive! Chef Lori truly cares and her staff will enthusiastically serve you and make you feel welcome.

Wow! Just wow! I have never felt so seen and valued as a customer with dietary restrictions! I’m gluten-free and dairy-free and there were SO MANY options!! Chef Lori even took the time to explain what was available that I could have. My husband and I even brought my grandparents here (they’re hard of hearing) and the music was a bit loud for them and Chef Lori made sure to have the music turned down for us too. If I could give this place more than 5 stars I would! If you have dietary restrictions, this is the place to go!

Highly recommend the GF Vegan pumpkin waffle!

As a partner of a very sensitive celiac, I make many sacrifices in either price or quality of food for safety. Here that’s not a question, you get a reasonably priced delicious meal that both of us can enjoy with out rolling the dice of their comfort. PS if you must try something the GF waffles, pigs n a blanket and/or the mushroom morel soup are not to be missed.

I’m newly diagnosed with Celiac Disease + severe Lactose intolerance and I was truly sad at first…lost in what’s next?! Then I found Harvest Kitchen and Bakery 🥰 Not only is the owner Lori so wonderfully inviting but so is the food! The selections available for GF + V are MANY and their kitchen is dedicated to ensuring your order is prepared with care and attention. The best part is it is ALL so delicious 🤤!!!! For the first time in a year I have been able to enjoy a big breakfast and my day with no sickness 🥹 So so grateful to have found Lori & her Harvest Team in Katy!! I come at least once a week!

I came on a recommendation from a gluten-free Facebook group that I am a part of. I am from the DFW area and it is very hard to find good food while traveling. I was in Katy, Texas for training with my company and wanting something to eat for breakfast the day that I was leaving. I got there, checked in with the hostess who asked me if it was my first time I told her yes she welcome to me with a big smile. Asked me if I had any allergy sensitivities gave her mine. She can give me a menu and a yellow piece of paper with my name on it Told me to walk inside and somebody would help me there. I walked in there were three lovely ladies one took my card the other got the little table number, and then she wrote my name on a little chalkboard thing for the table as well. My food was brought to me properly very eye appealing and I can tell you the first bite was amazing. I got the best gluten-free biscuits and sausage gravy that I’ve ever tasted. I even got some to go. I wished it was closer, but that again I would gain a lot of weight, I spoke with Chef Lori as I was leaving and explain to her that it was absolutely amazing and it was my first time she asked me my name, and then introduced herself and thanked me for the kind words and visiting asked me to please come back on in the area again.

Go here. It’s not dedicated but almost the whole menu is GF. I have never been to a non-dedicated gluten free restaurant that took more care than this one to understand food allergies of every single customer and prevent cross contamination. The chef personally waits in line and understand any allergy you might have and directs the right menu to you.

Food allergies aside, this place is just an incredible restaurant. Fantastic food!!! Super well run establishment and one of the cleanest restaurants I have ever been to. Cannot recommend this enough.

I can't say enough wonderful things about this place! I have Celiac and was so happy to see so many gf items that I could eat for the first time dining out. The menu is extensive. The decor is magazine worthy. Staff extremely nice and attentive. You could call it "frilly" and suited to ladies, but there were couples eating there as well. Food is chef-prepared and outstanding!

We are here for lunch today while on that side of town, thanks to the reviews here. The customer service was exceptional! The host that finds you a table asked about any allergies and I alerted him that I have Celiac. They then quickly alerted the Executive Chef and she came right out to speak with me before we ordered at the counter. She said “what are you in the mood for, I’ll make you whatever you want!” She went over their processes for GF and made me feel extremely relaxed. I avoid eggs, so most of the menu wasn’t going to work for me (which I knew before we arrived), so I stuck with the Arugula and goat cheese salad with grilled chicken. If I could tolerate eggs, I would have gone for the waffles! My husband and 12 year old both ate every bite of their gluten-y food and the restaurant is super cute and clean. Will be back next time we are out in Katy!
