    Achiote chicken sandwich
    Robert S.

    Had a few of their sandwiches and we loved the service, the food and the flexibility of making minor changes to an order. My Achiote chicken was made with multigrain sourdough bread, toasted. It was nice and crunchy, warm and filling. The egg sandwich was fluffly and light. Very good as well. This local chain of bakeries and cafes is a great solid place for a nice quick meal. Check out any of the Flour bakeries in the Boston area.

    Super cozy and cute ambiance. My matcha and sandwhich were both stellar. Food was fresh, flavorful, and aesthetic. Would definitely return if I was local. My husband actually went back the next day when I was working and was so pleased with the avocado toast. We would have ordered more food for the road if we had had space while traveling!

    Dark chocolate cake slice

    New Flour in a hot Longwood spot! Great place to grab a coffee or bite to eat with friends or colleagues, quick spot for lunch or even an early dinner. Lines can get long, so be prepared. I do not recommend the Greek salad, it was underwhelming, the romaine lettuce was not fresh. A dark chocolate slice of cake was good but not up to flower standards typically. Try one of the many fresh pastries coffees. I hear the sandwiches are also good.

    breakfast egg sandwich
    Heather H.

    Barely any wait, small location but enough seating. Great location in terms of proximity to things But let's talk about this breakfast egg sandwich. Soooo goooood! The egg is this fluffy soufflé-y magical deliciousness. Perfectly paired with your choice of ham bacon or sausage. We got sausage which was utterly delicious. Cheddar, arugula, and tomato. Dijonnaise to give it a je ne sais quio. Wish I had this multiple days!!

    Seasonal Quiche (Bacon, Carmalized Onion, Goat Cheese)

    Always a huge fan of Flour! With so many locations across the city, they're always a reliable spot when craving a simple but tasty meal or snack! The service is always kind and efficient, and I always leave feeling rejuvenated. I tried one of their sandwiches today for the first time and was incredibly impressed with their signature focaccia. Even for being a kid's meal, the sandwich was huge and packed with flavor (a little hack if you're looking for a cheaper meal)! It made for the perfect picnic lunch! :)

    Vanilla honeycomb latte
    Roshini T.

    Loved the honeycomb latte - a flour specialty drink! Perfect amount of sweetness and the perfect remedy to a gloomy and rainy day. Seating and outlets are very plentiful making it a great place to study or work. Highly recommend

    " Pastry Heaven" The pastries including the cakes or birthday cakes are just delicious. It's literally like a slice of heaven you can eat . The service is super friendly and fun . The vibe is welcoming. I really enjoyed my time here . Parking is difficult but manageable. Just always read the signs before parking .

    brown butter cinnamon roll, tea, croissant
    Soo L.

    I know Flour is famous for their sticky buns but don't sleep on the cinnamon rolls! The icing is so good! I was happy to revisit Flour after trying the pastries many years ago when they only had their original location. This location was on the small ish side with some seating but it was packed in the morning so couldn't snag a seat. Ambiance is industrial modern feel with friendly and helpful staff and warm coffee aroma enveloping you as you enter. I ordered a croissant (still tasted great and flaky the next day!), cinnamon roll (staff suggestion when asked for a less sweet alternative to the sticky bun bc I wasn't in the mood for it), and tea. Order came out quickly and all scrumptious! Overall very happy with the experience and food. I'd love to come back to try again someday, maybe the sticky buns next time!

    chicken tikka masala naan, sticky roll, chai latte
    Randy H.

    Whenever I come to Boston I head to a Flour. Today I had the Chicken Tikka Masala naan which was awesome. Nice flavor. I then had the sticky roll and sipped on the Chai latte. I really appreciate the Chai Latte which has a touch of spice without too much sweetness.

    Blueberry Pie
    Joanne T.

    We only ordered desserts and they were good, but nothing spectacular. I love blueberry pie and this did not hit the spot. The boston cream pie/tiramisu was a fun change to regular boston cream pie. I love that the menu is well-labeled for common allergens/intolerances as someone who is allergic to certain nuts.

    Can never go wrong with Flour. On a chilly winter day when a few foodies needed a bite to eat, luckily Flour was a 5 minute walk away. It was easy to find some seating even on a Saturday afternoon during finals season. Familiar with Flour I did get my usuals: smoked turkey sandwich and raspberry seltzer. I always love that flour offers half sandwiches so I can order and try more things without getting stuffed. Of course I had to get the brown butter Rice Krispie to go. I got to try their December seasonal pie: the pear and cranberry crostata. Buttery crust, seasonal themed flavors in the cranberry and pears melded together. I only wish I get another slice to throw in the oven. I ended up getting a white chocolate iced mocha with oat milk and it hit the spot. It was the pick me up I needed since I knew I had a long drive ahead. Flour is consistent across locations, always delivers on great service and food, and high quality in what comes with the flour experience.

    pear cranberry crostata
    Tina K.

    All the pastries I tried at flour were fantastic! My favorites were the ginger molasses cookie, pecan sticky bun, and pear cranberry crostata. I highly recommend the eggnog latte if it's available too!

    The process here are simply fucking shocking ... $20 for a sandwich with a tiny amount of meat. I…read morecould almost fly to Italy and have a sandwich there if these get any more expensive. Oddly, some of the best sandwiches we had in Italy came from a gas station travel plaza on the way from Rome to Florence. We haven't found a similar sandwich in the US ... until here. The meats are sliced fresh and all the sandwiches are made by hand. You have a lot of choices ... and the menu is odd. It stretches from one end of the ordering counter to the other ... it's so long that it's difficult to read the choices at the beginning of the sign. We got the Paradiso, which is made with Mortadella (imagine a thin-sliced bologna) with pistachio cream. Thoughts on the sandwich: Size: - This is one of those places which gives you too much sandwich. I'd come back more often if the sandwiches were $10 - $12 for a single portion. Honestly, the sandwiches here could probably feed two people ... which is fine because it allowed us to split it. However, if I am getting lunch for myself, I don't want to pay double and take a half home. Ingredients: - The best part of the sandwich was the foccacia bread. It was crisp but light ... had a little bit of oil on it and it was dense enough to fill you up. Slightly salty. - The mortadella was high quality ... but at the end of the day, $20 for a bologna sandwich is tough. Also, I was a little surprised at how thin of a layer they put on for the price. - Pistachio/Cream ... Very sweet, I felt like I would have liked a little more savory to balance it out. The sandwich was very pistachio forward and that was the predominant taste. I'd have liked the mortadella to stand out more. Overall, you won't find a sandwich as similar to what you'd get in Italy anywhere else. This place is a bit over hyped in my opinion but the sandwiches are pretty authentic to what you'd find in Italy. Unique combinations and high quality ingredients but the prices are just so fucking sky high here. - The bread is the best part

    Incredible - just about identical to what I had at the Florence location. It might be sad, but my…read moreday trip from Providence RI to Boston was centered around getting a sandwich here. I got the La Paradiso which has Mortadella, stracciatella, pistachio cream and pistachio ($19). The focaccia bread is out of this world, and I absolutely love the combination of creamy stracciatella with pistachio cream and mortadella. Their sandwiches are massive, and while I am able to finish one no problem, the average appetite would have two meals out of one sandwich. La Paradiso was the same sandwich I got in Italy so I gotta mix it up next time. The service is quick and friendly.

As the name "Mercato" implies, it's not a restaurant, so no place to eat, no place to "do your business" after, and if you've made it to the north end, you already know there's no place to park. -- Italian Sandwich: Long, soft bread, kinda like the kind you had in your school cafeteria, only a million times softer, a million times more crackly, and a million times better. Setting the base are oil, balsamic vinegar, lettuce, tomato, pickles, hots, and provolone. Italian sandwiches usually come flat-stacked or in a C-shape. Here, it's a fluffy stack, with the VERY-thin-sliced-to-order meats-- prosciutto, mortadella, salami-- piled generously but delicately, like tissue paper. More oil and balsamic on the other side seals the deal. It's a glorious sandwich that'll fill you up with the first half, but you'll want to keep eating the second half, because it's so good. The deep flavors of the meats comes through, and that's soft, crunchy bread is a delight. Pro tip #1: Get it with a small side of pesto. Have some bites with, some bites without. Pro tip #2 (in more ways than one): Plan your restroom visit at the nearby Boston Public Market. Pro tip #3: Plan your eating near the Paul Revere statue on Hanover Street, at the basketball court down Stillman Street, or on the Greenway down Hanover Street.

My first introduction…read moreended up being at a corporate event in Boston's Seaport district, where lunch arrived courtesy of one of the city's best-known sandwich shops. The catering was impressive. Before anyone even took a bite. Every half sandwich was individually wrapped and clearly labeled, with salads and sides neatly organized, making it easy for a large group to grab lunch without the usual catering chaos. The choices were wide and varied. We took our lunches upstairs to a rooftop seating area overlooking the Seaport, which made for a pretty great setting on a beautiful afternoon. I chose the Gobbler, and it lived up to the hype I've since read in other reviews. At first glance it sounds like a Thanksgiving leftover sandwich, but it's much more than that. The turkey was fresh and flavorful, and it was complemented by stuffing, cranberry sauce, spinach, pepper jack cheese, and just enough chipotle mayo to add an unexpected kick, without overwhelming everything else. It's one of those combinations that sounds busy on paper but comes together remarkably well. I spoke with several others over lunch, and they were equally impressed with their choices. That's always a good sign when you're feeding a crowd. It's one thing to make a great sandwich to order; it's another to deliver dozens of them catered while maintaining that level of quality. Since this was catered, I can't really comment on the restaurant itself. The service on the catering side, however, was evident in how thoughtfully everything was prepared and packaged, and the rooftop setting where we enjoyed lunch certainly didn't hurt. Needless to say, this won't be my last Sam LaGrassa's sandwich. I fully intend to visit the restaurant one of these days, and in the meantime I'll spend some time trying to recreate that Gobbler at home (maybe with sliced roasted chicken, but also with turkey when I have it). It was that good.

    You want the best sandwiches in Boston, look no further…read more You want the most expensive sandwiches in Boston, look no further. You want the worst restaurant seating in Boston, look no further. This place is fairly under the radar ... but those who know and don't mind the crazy prices and rude counter staff enjoy it. The restaurant itself is small ... and the seating is communal which absolutely is a pain in the ass. There is a back area with single seats and a ledge you can put your sandwich on but there are a lot of idiots who put their stuff on one seat and take up the other so nobody can sit next to them. There are several connected tables with 6 seats each. Unfortunately, you'll be sitting next to 4 or 5 strangers. The seating is the worst part ... if you can, it's best to grab your sandwich to go and bring it to a bench or somewhere you can eat it in a more peaceful setting. When it gets busy, this place is the definition of chaos. There is about 5 feet from the door to the ordering counter and the menu is impossible to read. Lots of backup and confusion about who is ordering, who is reading the menu and who is just standing around waiting. The sandwiches are worth the hype. Not sure if they are worth the price though at $20 - $30 per sandwich. (Pastrami is in the $30 range and something more simple, like buffalo chicken is in the $30 range.) You probably could get 2 servings out of a sandwich if you are a light eater ... sandwiches are big. This is one of those places that charges you a fortune and gives you too much. I'd be happy with a sandwich 25% smaller and 25% less expensive. The other gripe I have is that the sandwiches are the messiest I've ever had. Most have drippy Cole slaw or sauce on them and eating them is very messy. They have no napkin holders on the table and they give you only two napkins with each order. It's almost like a running joke. The counter staff is really rude and matter of fact. Given how many choices and combinations there, naturally there will be some confusion. And the place is loud when crowded, so they keep acting annoyed and saying, 'huh?'. If you have deep pockets and a big appetite this is a spot you should try. A lot of the corporate offices for big four accounting firms and high value companies use this place for catering. That's how I first found out about it. They also ship their sandwiches, which is interesting.

If there was a way for the burrito to be wrapped so all the ingredients were more evenly distributed - this would easily be a 5/5 breakfast burrito. One random detail that stuck out to me was that their drinks in their refrigerator were very cold - no lukewarm sodas here! I would come back here to try their signature "Fancy" sandwich.
