Great Harvest Bread Co. – Cary

Great Harvest Bread Co. on Northwest Maynard Road is a locally owned bakery and cafe. The whole wheat berries are milled daily and every loaf is baked from scratch in Cary, with no mixes, no frozen dough, and no shortcuts.

It works as a bakery and as a place to sit down. Breakfast and lunch come with espresso, coffee drinks, and matcha, and the cinnamon rolls are soft, gooey, and made from scratch every morning. Catering is available for groups in Cary, Apex, Morrisville, and Raleigh.
