Flour Bakery + Cafe

I had one of the best sandwiches I've ever had here - wow!!I didn't expect much because I just needed a cappuccino and a place to journal, but the sandwich I ordered on a whim was so good! Thick, fluffy bread, and it wasn't dry at all.Great place to just relax.

Brief Summary:- Coffee is sour- Ordering can be done at the kiosk- Indoor and outdoor seatingWe arrived here in the early afternoon, so there were guests sitting in most of the space inside and outside of this cafe. There were two ordering styles, one by the staff and the other by the kiosk. It was nice to see the kiosk order, so we tried this for this time around.The kiosk ordering style was like boba, where it first started with the base and then additional steps to customize. For example, with the toast, it starts off with a plain piece of toast (customize on the quantity), then you can choose to add butter or other jams, and then then adding a side of a poached egg. This was easier to follow for someone who is familiar with ordering from a tablet, but with my elder relative, they were very confused on why they were being asked for additional items, when they expected one push to put the whole set (toast, egg, butter, and jam) into the cart.We also ordered a salad, a roasted beef sandwich and a pastry. However, after ordering, it turns out that this was out of stock, so the staff came by and guided us to the staff desk to swap an item for something else. We got the cheese pastry instead and paid the remaining.I enjoyed this cafe for the variety of menu options, including toast, which was harder to find in other cafés. The roast beef was good, but generally the texture of the sandwich was on the soft side. If the bread surface was toasted, it would have added a different texture.

A student staple, flour had great pastries and sandwiches! The banana bread, sticky buns, cheddar chive scone, and boston crème cake are my favorites from all the times I've been. There's outdoor seating as well as a place inside to sit and work. You can often see many coffee chats going on here!

Somebody bought me the vegan almond pistachio macaroon and it was delicious! There are tons of clearly labelled vegan options on the menu, and you can find full ingredient lists online.

I came here for a quick lunch on a Friday. It was not too packed. I waited on line and ordered a Cubano sandwich. There was a large seating area in the back for everyone to enjoy. I grabbed a free cup of water to drink while waiting for my meal. Everyone seemed friendly and helpful. The sandwich was packed and delicious. It had a good amount of meat and tons of flavor packed in. It was very filling and left me satisfied after. There are several offices and students nearby who seem to keep this location busy. I enjoyed my time here and would come here again.

Cannot count the number of times I've been here. Always good, always reliable. I truly recommend all of the sandwiches and pastries. But my favorites are the sticky sticky bun (ofc), cheddar pimento bialy, and curry chicken naan. Love that they have seasonal specials so I can always try something new! I wouldn't dine-in here: it's loud and crowded and there's not much seating. But great for getting food to go.

Sticky Buns 5/5Currant Spelt Oat Scone 4/5Came here with a friend who was visiting from out of town and wanted to try the sticky buns. They did not disappoint! The blend of the honey sugar caramel on top with the crunchiness of the pecans and crisp top layer of the buns was amazing! Highly, highly recommend! We also tried the currant spelt oat scone which was really good as well. The cafe and bakery itself is a nice place to sit in to meet up with people or to get work done. It was decently spacious with a good amount of seating. We came near to close so it was pretty quiet, but I could see it being more lively during peak hours.Service was very good. The cashier we interacted with was very helpful in answering any questions we had about how any of the baked goods would travel for my friend who wanted to take some back. Also liked how there were the Flour recipe books and other items sold there. No parking lot, but a good amount of street parking near to the cafe!

A bakery + coffee shop that is all around town. It is unapologetically bold as it serves American versions of popular baked goods. Some seating means opportunities for quick meetings or waiting for friends. Broche au chocolat - A playful adaptation on the pain au chocolat. Instead of the yeast croissant exterior, we have a brioche bread exterior. While an interesting idea and potentially a good concept, the bread was a bit tough and likely a abit stale. Might give it a try again as I like the concept.Brown sugar almond meringue - Love meringue, so had to try it. This is denser than a typical meringue, but the almond bit do help with the texture and I can look past the extra density. Also works well with coffee.So. Lots of choices lots to try, will come back to try some of them!

The owner is a very nice person, do friendly! We ordered two cups of coffee and two plane croissants, they were delicious!

When will cafes learn that "a salad" isn't just a plain handful of all the same greens, and nothing else? Lots of people recommended the Flour chain to us when they heard we'd be visiting Boston. We ordered a sandwich which was fairly good if rather basic, a quiche and salad that were unremarkable, and a sticky bun and an almond croissant which were both nearly flavorless. Six months ago I made croissants (almond, in fact) for the first time ever, and they were better than this. Costco makes better croissants. We both regret our meal here.
