Best sweet bread ever but when they close they never give you a date when they reopen they just say May give us a date in May im sick of calling all the time rediculous read more

My family literally will not buy Portuguese sweet bread anywehre else besides Lou's. It is the best. It is so good that they literally only take cash and are only open four days a week. They say they are open until 1pm, but really they are open until sellout which is generally much earlier. My aunt always calls ahead to reserve sweet bread and last time they told her to get there by 10am so she didn't risk them closing down already. But, when you make the best sweet bread around you can very easily make this inconvenient business model work. The sweet bread comes in three sizes-- small, medium, and large. While the sweet bread is always delicious, I also love their chorizo puff pastry triangle. So tasty. If you want amazing sweet bread head on in to Lou's with your cash and be sure to head in early (before 10am)! read more

Lou's Bakery - Bakeries Near Me - Fall River, Massachusetts

See all

The best sweet bread around so soft and stays fresh for days. Once you try it, you'll never go to another bakery for sweet bread again.

You haven't had Portuguese sweetbread until you've had some from Lou's. Best sweetbread in the city and probably surrounding cities and towns. Go get some now. You won't regret it. read more

The best sweet bread ever!!!!! Gotta get up early to get it though! Just can't get one loaf!

Only problem with them is hours open. Seems to me they close at will. I think their hours are they close when they sell out of sweetbread.

Being of Portuguese descent I know my sweetbreads and Lou's bakery is off the charts Ahhhhmazing! It is the first bread that I don't even but butter on. I don't want anything to disguise the taste of the sheer perfection of the flavor and texture. I wish I had discovered this gem years ago but am sure glad I know where it is located now. read more

Not open. Made a lengthy trip and it was closed on April 4th.Sign on door posted hours that they were open..and they were not. Why have your hrs posted on yelp if they are false. read more

I have been calling and repeatedly sent to voicemail despite having been opened for one and one half hours. Good product. Terrible service. I guess that's the way it goes when you get too popular. read more

The absolute best sweet bread ever! When the owner retires no 1 will be able to duplicate her sweet bread. She's also awesome!

All I can say is this is the best bakery to get all your delicious Portuguese breads! Anytime my family and I visit family in Fall River, we always stop here and also grab extra to take home and for family. read more

Love love, love their cakes! Sweet bread is excellent. My go to place for birthday cakes and I have been going here since I can remember. It's the frosting! read more

Lou's Portuguese sweet bread is the my absolute favorite and I've tried at least 5 different bakeries. There's something extra moist and fluffy about the bread here. They were closed for a few weeks when I was in town in July so I missed my chance to stock up. It will give me something to look forward to in the future. read more

I picked up a meat pie, the price had jumped to $10, but I remember how good it was. Big surprise, the pie not only was more money it was half empty... We decided to freeze it so we cut it in half and to my surprise it was half empty. Very disappointed read more

This is a great family owned bakery. When I walked in I was greeted in Portuguese by A very pretty woman with a smile that matched her demeanor and willingness to give me excellent service. I then requested seven loaves of Portuguese sweet bread. I'm told we need to arrive in the morning to buy this bread. Fall River is known for Portuguese food and Lou's runs the show on this delicious treat. They run the show to the point that people rush there to buy it all up. I also had chocolate chip cookies, and those too were kind of amazing too. I guarantee that I'll be back the next time in Fall River. read more

Definitely the BEST massa in the Fall River area. The massa is moist and available in 3 sizes. My out of town friends always request Lou's massa when I visit. Highly recommend. read more

So I have a friend who is a local Portuguese South-Coast native. She discovered my love for sweet bread and introduced me to this place. And I never looked back! Boy was she right on the money - if sweet bread is for you, this is your place. Haven't tried anything else here but I hear that everything else is amazing too. And since they were right about the sweet bread, I'll take their word for the rest. read more

Best sweet bread around. Heavy & Moist. No lemon flavor either. The chourico rolls are Delish! read more

best sweetbread around! on Good Friday I am in line at 5:00am.

The sweet bread here is very tasty, but it has a quality that is not traditional, and I think the shortening used in here is actually oil rather than butter or even crisco. It is very soft and fluffy and really doesn't hold up well to making French toast or even to toasting in general. It is sweet though--but I think other bakeries in the city make a much more authentic Azorean style sweetbread. The linguica rolls are very good. read more

Sweet bread is great, but the service is not. They aren't very friendly. I've tried some of their other items and they were pretty good as well, not as good as some other bakeries in the city though. But if it's sweetbread you're after, this is the place. Just get there early! read more

I know nothing about Portuguese cuisine, but when I moved to fall river, I quickly became a big fan.......my Italian grandmother is rolling.....I was turned on to Lou's and honestly I'm very very hooked on the sweet bread. I must remember to thank the man that tipped me off. It's so dense and sweet and amazing. I must eat it.......... read more

Best massa, sweet bread for you of non-Portuguese heritage in the city of Fall River if not all of the South Coast. If you've never experienced Lou's you don't know what you're missing but it's not my favorite bakery on Fall River................... read more

This place has great soup and sandwiches. Sweet bread and all their pastry is fantastic. Their salmon, chourico and meat pies are delicious. They even make bake beans, etc. Love this bakery very much. read more

Best bakery for sweet bread! So sweet and moist. Finally decided to try their pastry on my second visit. The Apple turnover was OK, not sweet enough for my sweet tooth and the crust was thick. The Cinnamon Twist was amazing, sweet and delicious. The Malasadas was great, but a warning to anyone who's like me and will eat it in their car, it makes a mess! read more

This is the best sweet bread in the whole wide world, bar none. It has ruined my waist! Yum, Yum, Yum.

Best Sweet Bread ever. I drive from Fairhaven every couple of weeks an purchase several loaves of this wonderful bread.
