About Alvaro Bread & Pastry Shoppe
Located at 236 Peffer St, Harrisburg, PA 17102, Alvaro Bread & Pastry Shoppe operates as an asian bakery serving Harrisburg in Pennsylvania. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it.
Hours at these spots often run into the evening, later than a typical coffee shop, and many stay open on weekends when demand is highest in Harrisburg. Seasonal and limited-time drink or dessert flavors are common, so a shop's current menu can differ from what is posted online; checking recent photos or calling ahead helps. Some locations in Pennsylvania are dessert-only with no seating, meant for takeout, while others have cafe-style seating for staying a while. Straws for bubble tea are typically wide to accommodate the toppings, and are provided automatically unless you ask for a regular one. Loyalty apps and stamp cards are common at chain locations, and ordering ahead through an app can shorten a wait considerably at busy locations during peak after-school and after-dinner hours.
Hours are published for 4 days a week. On most of those days it is open 10 amβ6 pm. It is closed on Thursday, Friday, Sunday. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. The listed phone number is (717) 238-1999. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. Its website is alvarobread.com, where you may find menus, price lists or booking options.
Customers rate it 4.8 out of 5 on Google across 677 reviews, placing it among the better-regarded asian bakeries in Harrisburg.
Harrisburg is in Pennsylvania, in the Northeast, where four distinct seasons shape local life: hot humid summers, snowy winters that can close businesses for a day, and a dense pattern of towns where walking, transit and street parking all matter. Traffic in Harrisburg peaks on weekday mornings and afternoons, so allow extra time then. Addresses read from the street number up to the city, state abbreviation and five-digit ZIP code; the map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Real Italian food, by authentic Italians. The pastries are off the hook. So light and tasty. The service is incredible. They make you feel like you've been friends since childhood. The prices are great, especially for the quality and quanity. Thanks again for another great mral with desserts. See you soon. Philly Bob

I cannot sing their praises high enough! I came in today hoping (and expecting to be told no) that I'd be able to get 36 cannoli's and a cookie tray, understanding that is a tall order I expected them to be upset BUT THEY WEREN'T! This lovely family business made me 30 FRESH cannoli's and used all the cream they had available, along with the beautifully set up cookie tray, and a small snack for myself. No attitude, no short temper, the gentleman was absolutely amazing and so thoughtful. I will never go anywhere else for my pastries, and I can't wait to try everything else!

A gem of the neighborhood and Harrisburg. Classic Italian bakery and eats. The have daily specials, huge pizza slices and loads of pastries to choose from. Everything we got was great. Really nice owner to top it off.

My wife and I had lunch here. We tried a sampling of all the small pastries, a cannoli and a blueberry Danish. I also tried a slice of their meat lovers pizza. Everything is made fresh daily and anything left over is donated locally. The pizza was incredible - as you'd expect from a bread/pastry place perhaps, the crust was so delicious and the sauce and toppings were a great compliment to the bread. It was amazing how each of the pastries had unique flavors and textures - some were sweet, some more savory, chocolate, coconut, various jellies and fillings. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The small indoor dining area is complemented by an outdoor area. It's not a busy section of town and we were able to find street parking easy enough, although after having been there, I'd walk a few blocks if needed next time!

Alvaros is a gem in Harrisburg. Excellent Italian food whether you eat inside, at a sidewalk table or do takeout. We took advantage of their New Yearβs Eve takeout package and everything has been excellent.
