    Tuna melt
    Genie M.

    Every time I am in the Boston area, I have to get my egg sandwich. It is consistently delicious and filling! The bacon is good quality and compliments the eggs and arugula. The Dijon mustard gives it a nice kick! They have seating indoors and outside. You can call your order in before arriving. Restroom is always clean. Staff is always professional! Street parking and a small parking lot.

    sticky sticky bun

    Came in around 11:30 and there weren't too many people. You can either order from the kiosk or the counter. They have plenty of tables both inside and outside. I decided to try the sticky bun and it goes nicely with a drink to wash it down. I got the chai latte with a pump of halzenut and it paired nicely. Once it hit 12 a ton of people started coming in.

    Boston cream pie
    Sophie T.

    The Boston Cream Pie from flour is SO good. I normally wouldn't even think to order something like this but my friend happened to get it to-go for me and it was fantastic. So fresh with a great ratio of chocolate to sponge cake and filling. Did not disappoint!

    What a great space. Industrial loft chic in the scientific heart of Cambridge. I came here for a quick coffee at the weekend and the place was buzzing with activity. There are convenient 15-min parking spots for the quick in/out pickup. A few outdoor seats to enjoy the warmer weather. Good addition to the neighborhood.

    Outside: Seating Area

    Similar to the other flour locations, this location offers excellent pastries and drink options. I did appreciate the larger seating area and parking lot right outside relative to the other locations I've visited. Worth checking out!

    Best tomato soup ever! The bread is delicious as well! Place was packed! Service was good.

    Super comfy bakery in cambridge with amazing pastries, smooth coffee and super friendly staff. Ask for faith. She's a doll! Plenty of indoor and outdoor tables. Super comfy couches and chairs inside. Great place to work, socialize, eat and drink! I'll definitely be back!!

    Got a birthday cake from Flour and it was such a pleasant surprise. I believe it was the 6" vanilla cake. Very moist, and love the decorations, however it is VERY sweet. I know most people have a sweeter tooth than I do, but I could only eat one slice (though still enjoyed it very much!). Overall, still love Flour and would love to try their other cakes as well :)

    Breakfast sandwich
    Steven B.

    Stumbled upon this place walking through the neighborhood near MIT. This place has some fantastic baked good and I wanted to eat them all! The home made pop tart was amazing! Strawberry filling and icing....you'll never eat the boxed ones again. My breakfast sandwich was amazing as well. Definitely would come back here for baked goods, pastries, and breakfast!

    Avocado toast with poached egg, pickled Fresno chili, cotiza cheese, salsa verde, cilantro on multigrain toast
    Cindy Y.

    I was looking for a place to grab breakfast before heading home to Maine from Cambridge. As always, I consulted Yelp, and came across Flour Bakery + Cafe. I checked out some recent reviews and the menu and determined this would be a great place to check out. As a bonus, it was a 5 minute walk from our hotel (the Hyatt Regency). My husband grabbed a table outside in the shade while I ordered for us. I ordered a blueberry muffin for my hubby and the avocado toast and an Arnold Palmer - 1/2 black tea and 1/2 lemonade - for me. The service was amazing! Everyone I interacted with was super nice, helpful, and seemed to love working there. In fact Flour Bakery + Cafe was selected as one of the best places to work multiple years in a row. My husband thought the muffin was just OK (and he never complains about food). The muffin looked a bit dry, crumbling in his hands as he was trying to eat it, and he had to have some of my drink to help wash it down. I had better luck with the Avocado Toast. It was made with a poached egg, pickled Fresno chili, cotija cheese, salsa verde, and cilantro on multigrain toast. The egg was perfectly cooked, with plenty of runny yolk to melt into the concoction, the other toppings a flavorful combination with a hint of lemon, and the bread was that great combination of crunchy and soft. I would definitely order the avocado toast again, and would try other items off their menu the next time I'm in town. A 5 for service, 5 for avocado toast, seating and muffin 3, for an average of 4. Could easily be a 5 on another day and depending on what you order.

    I came to tatte for the black sesame latte but was seduced by the orange blossom latte and had to…read moregive it a shot. I've been drooling over the passion fruit krembo and the pear tart so I had to give them a try as well. Pear tart- absolutely perfect, so mellow and sweet and I loved the poached pear in the middle! Passionfruit krembo- honestly stronger on the coconut and meringue flavor than on the passion fruit? Tastes almost like a lemon meringue tart to me. Orange blossom latte- frankly didn't get any flavor of orange blossom in the latte, until it melted totally I could taste it a little in the coffee. The vanilla was also really light. It's a pretty unadulterated coffee (as is typical for a cold brew) and I kinda like my coffee sweet and creamy, so I was not too impressed on a first taste. But once it melted I liked it a lot more. Probably will stick with black sesame next time. Note- they serve their pastries glued with sugar (?) on a cardboard round. Im not too sure how to eat it like this so I ended up prying them off the round.

    Always love Tatte! I mean, what's not to love they have incredible coffee, tease, bakery items, and…read moreso many great dishes. Walking into a Tatte is like warm hug, it's a positive, welcoming, and bright environment to be in. All of the cafes are so aesthetically pleasing and get a lot of natural light. This location does have some indoor seating, but is a bit more limited than some of the other locations. They do have a lot of outdoor seating though. It's also a great area to walk around if you get your coffee and or pastry to go. It of course gets busy at peak times on weekends and morning during the week. Brunch is big at Tatte, and rightfully so. I don't think it's the best place to try to work, but you can bring a computer in do some work or study, but it can also get loud when there's lots of conversations being held. I've had great interactions with the staff at this location and even when it's busy, I haven't had to wait too long to get my order. I've been loving the pumpkin spice tahini latte this fall. Looking forward to my next stop in!

You can build your own and they also have 10 or so specialty sandwiches with local-themed names like Brookline Portobello and Allston Asiago. These are prepared on one of a few types of excellent fresh bread and come with a pickle and a small bag of Cape Cod chips - all for just over 6 dollars.

They started doing more soups and salads too now so you can do a 1/2 soup or salad and 1/2 sandwich. Their sandwiches are generously portioned (read can be two meals if you are on a college budget like me) It's a little over 6 for the sandwich (or 1/2 and 1/2) with your choice of apple or small bag of Cape Cod Chips. I always get pretty much the same- garlic oil, fresh mozzarella, tomato, and basil. It's a great sandwich- although once in a while their basil is not fresh. You can choose to get it grilled or not. The wait is usually 5-10 minutes, but at least the ordering system (pen and paper) means that I've never had an error with my sandwich. More fast moving places should do this I think. Anyway, you can choose all sorts of things here really- there are lots and lots of options, which is what we all want in our over personalized, individualistic society, right? :)

The servers inside are working their tails off...! Their work pace is not the issue, it's the establishment's popularity...! Looks very authentic inside like a restaurant / deli you might find in Firenze. I decided to order the Italian Sub as they make it; no changes. In hindsight, I should've changed a few things I kind of knew I wouldn't like, but wanted to roll with their take on the classic sub. The bread was very fresh and the meats abundant and plentiful! I was not a fan of the balsamic, nor the "hots" (not "hot" so-to-speak, but kind of a marinated sweet pepper, nor am a fan of sweet pickles. Condiments on their sandwich...? Mayonnaise (none), mustard (none). I believe it's only balsamic and EVIO. I ate a half sandwich and was quite full. I honestly threw the other half out. Wasn't my jam. If you'd like to try it, you can have the full summertime experience and wait in the long line in the roasting sun with no apparent breeze or.... PRO-TIP: Place an order online for pick-up; walk up, go in the second door (to the left) straight to the counter where you pay and pick up your sandwich which will be ready by the time you get there. I will try this place again; I'm just modifying the sandwich to a version I know I'll love. Side note: The chip selection had some crazy flavors I've never seen before such as "Fried Egg"
