Italian restaurants, sub shops, calzone counters and Italian delis sit next to the pizzerias on this site because most of them bake pizza too, often from the same dough. Full-service Italian restaurants take reservations for dinner, add a tip line for table service (15-20% is customary) and usually run a cheaper lunch menu on weekdays. Sub and sandwich shops are counter-order and quick, with sizes by the inch or in half and whole lengths. Calzones and strombolis are priced like a medium pizza and are large enough to share. Italian delis and bakeries sell by weight and by the piece, and many close mid-afternoon.
Hours are published for 1 day a week. The most common schedule is 10 AM–6 PM. Note that it does not open on Sunday. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible.

Its website is alvarobread.com, where you may find menus, price lists or booking options.

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. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Harrisburg follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. 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 Year’s Eve takeout package and everything has been excellent.
