    I'm yet another fan of the breakfast sandwich at Flour. (I mean, eggs, arugula, cheddar and dijonaise? Yes please!) But don't miss the chocolate chip cookie! It has lots of special, complex yum to it.

    "Work/Study Experience "-4, "Food & Service"-4. This Flour Bakery gets busy at lunch time but has the space to accommodate a crowd. Their sandwiches and salads are delicious. Reliable WIFI available.

    Wonderful little corner bakery , nice sandwiches, loved the lemon ginger scone and the iced tea along side was great as well. Also, they sell out on bakery items very fast on weekends

    The breakfast sandwich is delicious and comes with egg soufflé, tomato, arugula, dijonaise and I added bacon. We ordered the French toast for the table and it was good but not the best I’ve ever had.

    Great food, but ordering was a bit stressful. The line was long and I couldn't see the most of the pastries before they took my order. Try Bavarian cream donut and a savory cheddar chive scone

    It’s hard to imagine anything actually improving an Oreo. But Boston’s spectacular Flour bakery manages to do just that. Its version is soft with a variety of flavored creams on the inside. Read more

    Love the food and drinks! I like the fact that you can order the sandwiches as a salad or grain bowl. We also got a vegan chocolate cupcake which was delicious.

    Any and all of Flour's brioche breads are worth a try. You won't be disappointed. Brioche au chocolat is the real star of the show though.

    The BLT (well, BAT because it’s arugula) and chocolate chip cookie are two simple things done perfectly. The rare place without a bad menu item.

    The sticky buns are overrated, but I highly recommend the carrot cake - super moist and the cream cheese frosting is delicious and plentiful! The granola bars are pretty solid too.
