Opened in Pineville, Louisiana in 1972, Harlow's Bakery is a family owned and operated business. Owner and Manager Roy W. Burr, Sr. purchased the established business in 1984 from the original owner, Frank Dyson. Because Harlow's was already a well-established business and enjoyed a good reputation in the area, we determined to keep the name.
Harlow's is a family business in the true meaning of the word. My wife, son, daughter-in-law, and daughter are all a part of daily operations as well as several other valued employees. Together with our other employees who have become our extended family, we work together to make our business a success.

This place has been around for as long as i can remember. Known for its baked goods, such as its donuts, cakes, and kolaches, Harlow's is a family friendly place that has a kind staff, and a nice interior. That being said, the food here doesn't do much to impress. I've been in here twice now, as I'm the kind of person that will give a place at least 2 chances, provided the first wasn't horrible. I won't give this place a third try. The kolaches are dry, and most of the time, the filling inside is scrunched to one side, making the dry bread more evident. And as far

Whoa! So glad I stopped at this spot. Everything else was closed since it was Memorial Day so I figured I'd just stop at a McDonald's in Pineville before started the 30 minute drive to my parents. I remembered there being a little donut shop here, but assumed that a family owned business would be closed on a holiday - nope!
I figured I'd get my favorite - an apple fritter - but then I saw they had kolaches! And they had them made the way I tend to like (the meat is fully enclosed in the dough) and they looked soft and buttery!! So I grabbed some to take to my parents along

Best in the country. I had a friend from Atlanta who swore by Krispy Kremes. Hated Shipleys and Dunkin'. Wouldn't try a Harlow's until I paid him $5 to try it. He did, gave me my money back and said I ruined him for all other donuts. He sends me emails from Atlanta wanting to know if I'm coming out and to bring him two dozen.

I just don't get it. Why on EARTH would you eat at this place when there are 2 Shipley's Donuts in Alexandria? Their taste, quality, and overall experience is litereally incomparable!

UPDATED REVIEW: I treid Harlow's again a few days ago and the plain glazed donut was soooo good. I'm thinking the first time the donuts were not at the appropriate temperature. These were warm and tasty and soft. So I revoke my prior review :)

So this place is not fancy to say the least. They offer donuts, brownies, cakes, cookies, coffee, some sodas and hot chocolate... thats it. But let me tell you, the Donuts melt in your mouth soooooo good! If you get there early enough you can be one of the luckly ones to get a bag of donut holes... love them, and if you are there especially early they will still be warm.
Great King cakes, when in season!
In the 9 months we lived in the area I think I gain 10 pounds just eating the donuts.
