    The place was pretty busy. We order off the machine to the side to avoid the line. We got the Sticky Sticky Bun and got it warm. It took like 5 minutes. It was super sticky and sweet. The bun was soft and tasty. Definitely worth the $4 something for it. Service was fast and friendly

    I got a lemon meringue slice and it was incredible! So delicious! The meringue was perfect as well as the lemon filling. The cold pressed juice was yummy and I will definitely return. Friendly staff

    Flour's newest location in the up and coming Boston Seaport has all the trappings of the older sister joints across the city, with the added benefit of the "hidden" locale nestled inside of the Boston Design Center. While this cafe hasn't quite hit the stride of the lightning fast and friendly service of my favorite Back Bay Flour, the food is consistent and the cafe itself is spacious and rarely crowded, even during lunch hour. While you might think you'll have to battle scads of hipsters to get your fill of their great menu, due to the number of permanent "food boxes" that line the Design Center's perimeter, you actually don't have to wait all that long! The menu features the usual Flour suspects, with a few seasonal twists thrown in for good measure. I visited on the first day that they debuted their Fall 2019 menu, and even though I didn't indulge, it sure looked yummy! The Smoked Salmon Quinoa Salad looked particularly winsome. Since it was 9 AM, I settled for a simple iced Mint Tea (a bit toothpaste-y for my taste, but the Herbal tea was pre-sweetened.. weird), and a fruit cup, which was tasty but pricy. Oh well, it did the trick to satiate the early morning hunger pangs. Next time, I'll probably get something more substantial and worth the money, like a house made breakfast sandwich or even a Baked French Toast if I'm in a holiday mood. If given the choice, I totally prefer the Back Bay or Central Square Flour to the Seaport outpost, but this'll do in a pinch. It's a nice oasis to stop at between meetings when you're visiting the Design Center, and I'm sure I'll be back soon!

    Super cool place! Tried the sticky bun and makes sense why they are famous for it. Also had the vanilla latte, typical latte and was really good. Sticky bun was a bit too sweet for me but still delicious. Nice seating area and service was great! Overall 9/10- would recommend, only thing is construction nearby so it can get loud

    Flour gets an award for the worlds most depressing $10 salad.

    This place is awful, 40 minutes wait for a salad that doesn't even taste good, Give you like a teaspoon size of salad dressing. Way overrated, this place is lucky it's one of the only places located in a huge office building. Not return.

    New digital menu board for the day's specials. Very easy to read.

    Absolutely love this Flour location! I come here to work when I'm not in the office and love the staff here - very friendly, even when it's busy. This has been such a great addition to the Innovation and Design Building. The ambience is similar to other Flour locations but a bit newer/fancier, plus MORE ROOM! Yes, it can get crowded at lunchtime, but the space is great and well laid-out, so it doesn't get jam-packed like some of the other locations. I don't have to say much about the food - everyone knows it's awesome, par for the course from Joanne Chang (I keep hoping to see her here one day!). Their sandwiches are some of the best in Boston, although I'm disappointed that they discontinued one of my favorites, the curry chicken salad. There's plenty of other delectable options on the menu to keep me coming back for more. Lots of seating is available - high top and low tables, counter, and outdoor tables. It can get a little noisy - high ceilings create an echo chamber m, so bring headphones if you need to really concentrate and get work done. The only complaints that I have is that the bathrooms are not the cleanest (but they are part of the IDB, not actually in Flour) and I wish they had longer hours on the weekends. Those are minor nits - seriously this is one of the best spots for breakfast, lunch, and getting work done (with coffee and sweets to keep you going) in Boston.

It harkens to a bygone era of Italian grocers with such authenticity, today it conveys an almost suspiciously genuine quality. It's as though I'm on the set of a movie as local shoppers briskly enter the shop & point to which hanging salamis and hand-shaped pastas they want to take home. Due to a condition (living in Tennessee), I'm only able to have the chicken Parmesan sandwich here about once a year. It's a sandwich I reminisce about with my family and work into conversations with friends and strangers alike. The bread is fresh and chewy, the sauce bright and acidic, and the chicken lightly breaded, perfectly fried, and tender. You can taste each ingredient in every bite. Every element is perfectly executed in its own right, yet somehow made even better in harmony. Recently while devouring my third of the massive sandwich, a little chicken cutlet tumbled to the ground. I'm talking: the GROUND. Outside. Pavement. When no one was looking, I slyly dipped down, picked it up, and ate it. I'm not necessarily proud of this action, but I'm also not ashamed. If you didn't believe the 5 Second Rule before Bricco, let the chicken Parmesan sandwich convert you. Taste and see!

The bakery is cash only and sells a variety of breads: baguettes, ciabatta, sourdough, & olive bread. In addition to the sfogliatelle, they sell muffins, croissants, and focaccia and muffins. The sfogliatelle was pretty good, the pastry was crispy and flaky and the lemon ricotta filling was very rich and creamy. I would've loved to have a couple loaves of the bread, but there was no way I was going to be able to bring it home as I was already maxed out with my carry ons!

In addition to wine, they carry liquor (just at this store in Seaport), beer, whiskey, and seltzers. The staff is always friendly and willing to help me find whatever I'm looking for. They even allow me to bring my pup inside the store every week while I shop for what I need. Cardullo's has a large selection of quality cheeses, chocolate, jam/honey, spices, candy, meats (prosciutto, salami), and crackers/chips. I've never been disappointed in any of the cheese I've bought here- they're all very tasty (and a handful are constantly rotated so you'll always have new ones to try). They also sell some very local (and niche) products - clam chowder, pickles, cookies, syrup, nuts, and tea. During the day they have a deli area of the store where you can order a fresh sandwich (just expect a long line around lunch time). Prices are fair (and the average) for their wines. Love this store and will keep coming back. Note all the ever-changing gift baskets they have throughout the store; make for great gifts around the holidays or birthdays!!

The service seemed friendly to those who frequent the shop often enough. But nonexistent for those like me who so happened to stop by to take a look. I gave up on actually buying anything after being literally ignored twice. I know the store associates heard me. The brightly lit and well merchandised store is perfect for those who need a quick pick me up or gift to bring to a party. Or for those who like to just have gourmet food at home to savor life. But perhaps not for someone like me who isn't worthy of getting acknowledgment or assistance prior to purchasing something that caught my eyes.
