Flour Bakery + Cafe: Boston’s Best-Kept Secret (Until Now)
Flour Bakery + Cafe. If you know, you know. Every time I travel back to Boston, I hunt down a Flour Bakery for one thing: the breakfast sandwich. Chef Joanne Chang, a Harvard grad in Applied Mathematics and Economics, left her management consultant career to pursue her true passion—cooking. Talk about following your dreams!
In 2000, she opened Flour in Boston’s South End, and now there are 9 locations in Boston and Cambridge. Flour’s menu is packed with breakfast pastries, breads, cakes, cookies, tarts, sandwiches, soups, and salads. It’s been featured in Gourmet, Food & Wine, Bon Appetit, the New York Times, and more. Flour has also racked up numerous Best of Boston awards

Whether you're there for breakfast or a lunchtime treat, Flour never disappoints. The massive case of baked goods and pastries will have you drooling while you wait to order. Gluten-free options? They’ve got those too! But seriously, do yourself a favor and get the sticky bun—you won’t regret it.
And don’t miss out on the breakfast sandwich. Swap the brioche bun for sourdough, and it’s a chef’s kiss! And wait until I tell you about their sister restaurant, Myers & Chang—OMG.
