    breakfast egg sandwich
    Zaraid J.

    Come here for the breakfast sandwiches almost exclusively. They are consistent for the most part, except that the bread is sometimes cold, sometimes hot. Bacon is a must for me! Not a huge fan of the bread, but I change it for sourdough and that works a lot better.

    Chunky Lola Cookie

    The Chunky Lola cookies is not-to-be missed! Developed by the staff as the perfect cookie, it's everything a cookie should be.

    Tried out their roast beef sandwich which was solid! Highlight of the dish was really the horseradish sauce and fried onions. They elevate the flavor and texture really well!

    ambiance inside
    Keerthi D.

    Flour is a bakery that serves a plethora of fresh & ready made desserts & drinks. They specialize in meringues, pies, cookies, and unique baked goods. There's a wide variety of sweets to pick from on the menu that cater to different people's tastes. It's located near the Boston University Medical Campus and Boston Medical Center. There is plenty of street parking nearby, and this location is the first of the chain in Massachusetts. When you walk in, there's a large menu you can pick from or a dessert case where you can see the treats that are available for purchase. The barista at the front was very nice! Additionally, the ambiance inside is very hipster, modern coffee shop/bakery. It's a perfect spot to hang out with a small group of friends or to lock in to study. There's plenty of small tables for indoor seating, so it's a great post-dinner spot. I ordered the Tcho chocolate cream pie, which was very decadent and flavorful. There was a good ratio of cream to pie filling to crust. I enjoyed it a lot! I would go back to try another dessert or drink on the menu and would recommend to someone looking for something sweet while in South End.

    Came here for breakfast since it was convenient and across from our hotel. I got the iced coffee so the oatmilk (great!) and the breakfast sandwich with sausage. It was a hefty sandwich and their house made aioli on it had a surprisingly strong kick to it. This location was super busy, people coming in and out, the line going all the way to the seating area, people sitting inside/outside. It was a tad chaotic especially for us (we dined in). The indoor seating area was tiny but we didn't want to eat outside where there was construction going on. The prices were a tad high in my opinion but overall we had a good experience.

    BLT w/poached egg
    Alice N.

    Overall a pretty average, solid place for sandwiches and drinks. I do love the outside seating and vibe along with the quick service, but I felt the food and drinks didn't stand much out to me and will come back for their pastries and baked goods. The BLT sandwich with poached eggs is presented as an opened face sandwich. Loved the balsamic dressing on the arugula and the applewood bacon on this classic BLT. As for the breakfast sandwich, I think using a different sauce for the sandwich could have been used instead of dijon. None of the sandwiches wowed me but the bread for sure did and you can tell when eating them As for the drinks, the matcha latte is very light and not rich, but I do like their house-made raspberry syrup with it that made the matcha better. As for the iced latte my boyfriend really loved it mainly because it tasted "light" it's not watery it was just a light coffee flavor, yet it was strong? If you're someone that isn't really into strong coffee flavors this could be for you.

    Breakfast Egg Sandwich
    Melissa F.

    Good and tasty breakfast that saved the day. We wanted to go to The Friendly Toast for breakfast, but despite going early, the wait was an hour and a half when we got there. Nope! Came to Flour instead since it was just a few steps away. They were also very busy with a long line, but it moved quickly. You also have the option to use the self service machine to order instead of getting in the main line. After ordering we waited less than 10 minutes for our food which wasn't bad at all. Our breakfast sandwiches were so good and filling. Great prices here too.

Cold, delicious, and just the right amount of chaotic fun... it was wicked good.

    A great café in the heart of Back Bay and an easy place to spend a relaxing morning or afternoon…read more The interior is spacious, bright, and charming, with plenty of seating compared with many coffee shops in the area. The vegetable frittata was delicious--fresh, satisfying, and a perfect light breakfast. We also shared a scone with fruit jam, which was very well made. Scones are highly subjective, but this one was exactly the style I enjoy: flavorful without being overly sweet. I didn't try the coffee myself, but my partner really enjoyed hers, which isn't surprising given Thinking Cup's reputation as one of Boston's standout coffee shops. Between the welcoming atmosphere, quality food, and excellent location on Newbury Street, I'd definitely return the next time I'm in Boston.

    I just got back to Boston after an eight-year absence…read more The city's changed. New buildings. New shops. New restaurants. Even neighborhoods I used to know by heart feel a little unfamiliar now (why is Downtown Crossing so CLEAN???). Thankfully, there are still those core-memory places that survive the passage of time. Thinking Cup is one of those shiny throwbacks to my younger, more vulnerable days. I'm happy to see it's still here, although I was surprised to find it's noticeably bigger than I remembered. Some things change for the better. The only downside? No Wi-Fi. I'm not saying that's a bad thing. In fact, I kind of respect it. It just made my usual review routine impossible. I normally post photos to Instagram first, then write my Yelp review afterward. No Wi-Fi meant no uploads, so you'll have to take my word for it this time. The coffee is solid. I wouldn't necessarily make a special trip across town just for that. The carrot cake, however... Now I understand why everyone talks about it. Moist without being heavy, perfectly balanced on the spice, and topped with a delish frosting that somehow manages to be rich without becoming overly sweet. It's easily among the best carrot cakes I've had anywhere. Some places survive because they're familiar. Others survive because they continue earning it. After all these years, Thinking Cup still deserves a place in Boston's coffee conversation, and I'm glad one of my favorite old haunts is still making new memories.

We came for dinner and I got the turkey and brie sandwich. The brie melted in your mouth and paired perfectly with the crunchy vegetables and turkey in the sandwich. There was also a layer of fruit jam which created a salty sweet combination that was delicious. I also shared a warm custard bread pudding for dessert with a friend (be aware that you have to order this 30 minutes ahead as they bake it fresh!) which was so yummy - it was quite sweet but gooey and a lovely mixture of caramel flavors that paired nicely with the vanilla gelato. Prices are on the higher side but align with the attention that is paid to each plate! They have a super cute bookstore next to the cafe which is fun to browse. The set-up is within three stories of a house and the decor/design inside is very cozy - definitely worth checking out.
