Love the bread and goodies, but the rude Asian woman is just that..RUDE! I've never posted a negative post any where but something needs to be said here. My Mom comes from 2 hours away, buys 6 loaves at a time and is treated rudely every time. My husband just came home with a loaf of bread, and the first thing he said was who is the rude woman at Great Harvest. I have had the same experience at that location so many times I stopped going.

Excellent not far from Mayo Gonda Hospital Rochester approx 5 city blocks. I would drive- if temperature sensitive. Jewish bread/buns to cinnamon roll chip bread my favorite they can also electric thin slice it of you ask. Don't forget to sign up for rewards. They have different breads different days. You can sam a bit of the ones they make that day to see if you like it, also have a deli that attached, melted sandwich was so good!!! Check it out! They have other locations. I like this location because in the parking lot they also seasonal veggie stand that rocks!!
