    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

    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!

    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 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.

    The food was delicious: a very almond croissant, paired with wonderful green tea. The service quick and friendly, and the space cozy.

    It has that casual, no-frills New England seafood shack feel, and the food really delivered…read more We tried the beer-battered fish & chips, clam chowder, and lobster roll. The fish was excellent--large pieces of fish with a golden, crispy batter on the outside while staying thick, flaky and moist inside. The fries and coleslaw made it a solid meal. The clam chowder was thick, creamy and loaded with potatoes and clam, exactly what I was hoping to find while visiting Boston. The large bowl is definitely enough to share if you're ordering other food. The lobster roll also had a generous amount of lobster meat and didn't need a bunch of extras to make it good. Prices aren't cheap, especially for lobster, but you're getting fresh seafood in Boston's Seaport from a family-owned seafood business that's been around since 1950. The service is great and food brought directly to table. If you're visiting Boston and want a casual place for traditional New England seafood, Yankee Lobster is absolutely worth a stop. I'd come back.

    Decent, but a bit pricey for what you get…read more Stopped by Yankee Lobster for lunch. The hot buttered lobster roll was definitely good, nice and fresh but honestly, it just doesn't compare to getting one actually up in Maine. I also grabbed a half-dozen oysters which were fresh and tasty, though they felt a bit overpriced for the portion. Service was noticeably slow, even though it wasn't packed, so expect to wait a bit. It's an okay spot if you're craving seafood in the area, but there are better values to be found. I'd say 3.5 stars to be fair.

If you're in the Boston area, I would consider it a sin NOT to try Bricco's Salumeria. Not joking when I say that my favorite bite experienced during my entire trip to Massachusetts, came from one of the focaccia sandwiches I ordered from Bricco's. I have already made it a point in my mind to hit this spot in the North End of Boston any and EVERY-time I find myself in the Boston area. It truly is an Italian staple and a Boston Classic! I am a sucker for the majority of places that promote and sell to the public the local or imported ingredients and produce that are used in the making of the speciality menu items that make the spot a household name. Truly a traditional and classic Italian spot that speaks to the inner Paisan inside. It's like stepping into a part of Italy when you walk in here. The place is oozing with class and history, along with a mouthful of delicious stories to hear and sample from the staff that breathe life Into this place. The only bad thing is the limited seating. Thankfully though, there's a local park down the road that you can sit at while you enjoy this wonderful Boston Gem.

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!
