    Stopped by this bakery in the morning since it's not far from the hotel where we staying. The place was busy and the line pretty steady and the people behind the counter took people order promptly. . This bakery famous for their sticky bun but I was in the mood for coffee lattes, chocolate croissant, and blueberry muffin. They have indoor and outdoor seating areas and they also sells some cook books, shirts, and some knick knack for tourist like me.

    I don't have enough good things to say about this bakery. I originally only planned on going once to try it out, but found myself going back every day on my trip to try different items. Everything I ordered was just great, and really makes the decision to get coffee and breakfast at a local shop a no-brainer. The savory and sweet pastries were all fantastic, and the coffee was also a perfect blend of sweetness to bitter. I feel confident that you'll be happy with anything you order here.

    This cafe was cute, had lots of natural lighting, and a good variety of drinks, pastries, and small bites. I only came here for a quick bite before I had work and thought that it wasn't a bad spot. I got a vanilla latte here and their yogurt bowl with granola. I thought that the vanilla latte was a bit too sweet for me and my friend and I both thought that their yogurt bowl was a bit cheesy (like a cheesecake-type of flavor--not bad but not great). Nonetheless, the space had free wi-fi and was a good environment to start my day with and get some work done.

    Cute spot! Nice iced latte and the lemon ginger scone was absolutely delicious! Bathroom is in a hallway and needs a code to enter, but could be a little cleaner. Staff was nice, and good seating area.

    Best place to grab a quick coffee to go before heading to work in the town! Located conveniently right next to the commuter rail. The service is faster and it's also a good place to have brunch with coworkers. My personal fav is sticky bun if you haven't tried it, I highly recommend it for the sugar tooth folks out there!

    Sticky bun

    I stopped by while waiting for a train back to NY out of Back Bay and was pleasantly surprised! It was the perfect spot to grab breakfast/lunch and was not too far from the station. I had the smoked chicken salad sandwich which was served in a delicious cranberry sourdough bread. The bread was very fresh and soft and had some crunch in it with some seeds they added to the bread. I also took home one of the sticky buns which was similar to a cinnamon roll but with some crunchy toasted pecans on top! Definitely recommend trying both of these if you stop by! Will definitely be back next time I'm in Boston!

    Stopped in here for a quick bite and hot bev. It was so, so busy and there was no available seating. We had to stalk patrons (ashamed, I know) so that we could at least share 1 seat for two people while we eat. I ended up only getting an almond flour pistachio macaroon and a hot tea -- figured those would be good options if we ended up having to order and leave. Both were nice, no complaints. Next time, hopefully we'll get lucky and its not so busy so we can order more items and get to enjoy them inside.

    If I only had one last brunch to eat on earth, I'd want it to be Flour! Specifically, their open face BLT sandwich (with added poached egg) and their chai latte. The BLT sandwich was perfect with runny egg on the top (wasn't that messy to eat with a fork and knife), and the chai latte was comforting and had the perfect balance of spice and milk/tea. Eating this meal at the bar seating by their window, looking out into a lovely fall morning, was absolute perfection.

    Mushroom Quiche, chai latte
    Erika C.

    Very busy location at times but definitely worth the wait! They serve some of the BEST quiche I've ever had! The mushroom quiche was so moist and flavorful, along with the delicious side salad. It's hard to venture away to other menu items when the quiche is so good! One of my favorites for brunch/breakfast! Also love the amazing service at this location & clean bathrooms!

    Breakfast Egg Sandwich
    Angelina R.

    This is my second time trying Flour and my first time at this location and, let me just say, it NEVER disappoints. I got their egg sandwich, which I was informed is their best-seller, and I can definitely see why. The egg was a creamy, tender texture and the saltiness from the bacon paired perfectly with the creamy aioli, crisp tomato, and peppery arugula. Not to mention the soft texture of the delicious brioche bun! I highly recommend this sandwich for breakfast! It was also a pretty decent size for the price. Of course, I paired mine with a matcha which, though it isn't the best in the city, it's a pretty good contender and great to have alongside Flour's other delicious food. I would recommend asking for less sweetener, though. I will say, this location was pretty crowded and it was hard to find a table during breakfast time. But the workers are extremely sweet and fast serving. They even helped us find a place to sit! Other than the business, the business has such positive, energizing vibes and I could easily sit in there all morning and afternoon sipping some coffee, eating a sandwich, hanging out with friends, or just getting some work done!

    Nice coffee/breakfast/lunch place with indoor and outdoor seating. The indoor seating is not that comfortable and definitely not made for comfortable lounging/working or hanging out. The menu has some nice choices. Breakfast sandwich had fresh tomato and arugula but the square shaped egg maybe was frozen? Not sure but didn't seem freshly made. The bread was just ok. I got a dirty chai latte which was delicious. A pricey little meal. The pastries looked delicious with prices around $5/avg. I didn't get any but would loved to have tried. Very visually appealing!

    roast beef sandwich
    Margaret P.

    A great spot to grab pastries and a brekky sandwich. I got the egg sandwich with bacon and my husband got the roast beef. We also got the sticky bun and cookie. Everything was delicious. I loved the softness of the ciabatta bread as well. The sticky bun was the star of the show for me. The pecans on the sticky bun were perfect caramelized. You can also order through their website online as well. A great spot for breakfast!

    Pastries
    Briana V.

    The matcha was very creamy and you could tell they put a lot loved into their pastries. I loved the flavor of their matcha and also their natural juice that had all my favorite things. The line was bit long but it went by really quick and was well worth the wait to enjoy a Delicious drink. You can't go wrong when you order from Flour Bakery and Cafe. They are amazing!

It is a good sandwich. It's a pretty great sandwich, actually. I like the Boss, but there are many great options. There are just two things to keep in mind: 1) it's relatively expensive (though doable) 2) the sandwiches are quite rich and salty, often relying on a flavorful cream element (truffle cream, pistachio cream, etc.) As a result, I probably wouldn't go every day or even every week. But a once-a-month cadence or so would be great. Try it!

But I'm actually writing about the company's website and phone recording. Once, on a prior holiday, and today due to a winter storm, I wasn't sure if the restaurant was open. In both cases (where the restaurant turned out to be closed), the website (appropriately) didn't allow online orders, and (more importantly) THE OUTGOING PHONE RECORDING WAS UPDATED WITH CURRENT INFORMATION. In an era where businesses barely have phone numbers to call, or employees who answer with something other than 'hello', is rare (and by the way, this is the fault of management if they don't properly train their staff). THANK YOU FOR HAVING YOUR SHIT TOGETHER IN COMMUNICATING YOUR HOURS TO THE PUBLIC. I, for one, appreciate it.

It was the gold standard for a real sandwich in the city. Sadly, the magic has faded. Between the soaring prices and the shrinking portions, the value just isn't there anymore. You can taste the "corner-cutting"--the flavors aren't as bold as they used to be, and the sandwiches feel noticeably smaller even though the cost has increased exponentially - I mean $30 for a sammy?! It should have gold in it! Even then, I'd keep coming once in awhile if the service was worth it. but honestly - the staff seems burnt out even bright early in the morning. It's hard to justify the premium price for a shadow of what this place used to be.

    The only thing that makes this location a five star is indeed the sandwich itself…read more The service was not great. We almost felt that we were inconveniencing the workers and the wait time is absurd for in person orders. But I have to give credit when it's due, this was by far one of my favorite sandwiches although they are pricey, you can easily feed a party of four with a nice bag of chips on the side. We were blessed with being able to try the table sandwich. The focaccia was fresh along with the mozzarella and arugula. Since we made an online order which quoted us 45 minutes, our sandwich was ready in 20 so unfortunately, the chicken cutlet was not as fresh as we would've liked. Sidenote, the first day we attempted to order in person they quoted us an hour, so we decided to place an order of the following day. Highly recommend placing the order and staying local to be safe.

While you can order there, it does seem like it takes some time for the sandwiches to be made. There is a sign saying that for the weekends to expect up to an hour wait for your sandwich. That being said, I ordered ahead online and my sandwich was ready when I got there. (This was a Thursday afternoon). I got the vodka chicken Parm after seeing it online and it definitely lives up to the hype. And yes, it is ~$30. The sandwich is huge. It has huge cutlets in it which are very filling, and perfectly made. It ended up being enough for two people, so find a person to share it with! The vodka sauce in the sandwich was sooooo good, definitely one of the best I've found in boston. They also provide you with a whole container of sauce to dip your sandwich into (highly recommend doing that). What lost the star is that I felt there wasn't enough basil. For that huge sandwich, there was actually very few bites with basil. I wish there was more of it, and I also wish there was some other green in there like arugula. Other than that, it's a great sandwich. I'd definitely get this again!

The raviolis are huge and so fat. I'm talking like 1/2 inch - 3/4 inch thick. There is so much stuffing and the spinach ricotta mix tastes so fresh and delicious...it's a must try. I've also gotten the eggplant parm before, and the fettuccini Alfredo. Both were also delicious. I've never had any of the sandwiches, but if they are anything like their pastas then I'm sure they are great! The bang for your buck here is also great which is nice. Highly recommend!
