Delicious baked goods, sweet staff, and a nice atmosphere :) The coffee cake was fabulous, quite heavy but amazingly so. The Boston creme pie was so light and rich! And the sticky bun was very good, sweet but not too much. Would absolutely recommend trying any of them! (You should definitely share them though, sugar rush!!) Also, they have free wifi, just ask for the password at the register!

This is a small central cafe/bakery. There is ample indoor seating with bar stools and normal tables. Equipped with guest wifi upon asking the staff for the password it is easy to spend more than an hour working on your laptop whilst enjoying a coffee.
Food wise I tried an avocado toast and a mozzarella sandwich as well as a heated sticky bun. All three items were excellent and in my oppinion the sandwiches were worth the $10 and $11 pricetag.
If you are looking for a quick bite or a sit down breakfast with friends this is a great address.

Flour used to be amazing. Their sandwiches were unparalleled in the nearby area, and were a good competitor vs chipotle or Salonikis. Especially when you felt good that day and like you wanted something that made you feel good about yourself because it seems healthier. But just recently they switched some of their best sandwiches to "bowls" which are pre-made. Those are definitely not worth the $12 price tag, there's barely any protein even. I see flour now more as purely a dessert and coffee place.

I lived in Boston 2016-2021 and HANDS-DOWN Flour was my favorite part of the city! I would be a brand ambassador for Flour if I could. Their coffee is amazing - lattes are delicious and creamy but strong - and their pastries are incredible. I love their sandwiches too and actually think they're a good value for the size and quality of ingredients. If you get a bacon breakfast sandwich on multigrain bread (also the tomatoes are ALWAYS ripe, how do they do that???) it's easily enough food for two meals. Yes, they run out of things sometimes but that's because they care about serving fresh food, and everything on their menu is amazing so who cares anyway? I even love their white chocolate mocha and I don't like white chocolate. I love Flour!!! Keep it up Joanne!

I love the quality of the food at flour bakery! I have only been on weekends and it is always hard to find a table. The service is still fairly quick. I recommend the hummus sandwich (vegan) and the vegan pastries!

We tried some pastries. First, they did not have the raspberry crumb bar as advertised. Second the pop tart type pastry had a flaky crust instead of a dense pie crust, which most people probably prefer if they like pop tarts. Third, the pecan sticky bun had way too much sticky glop. Lastly the chocolate croissant was a little dry.
Update January 4, 2022: upon encouragement, we tried this place again. We had a turkey sandwich, gingerbread muffin, and lemon scone. The sandwich was excellent, notably with the combination of condiments and the freshness of everything including the bread, which was a delicious multi grain. The ginger muffin was very good as well as the lemon scone. Service was very friendly and efficient.
