Stopped in for coffee, but the food looked so good, and the staff so nice that we stayed. Not sure what a weekday experience is like, but boy, on a lazy holiday afternoon, this was a clear step-up from the usual! read more

Love it!!! The egg sandwich was delicious and modern.

You get consistent quality here. It gets crowded because it is pretty close to MIT and a great spot to meet up but it's worth it. Great fresh food. I love the Portobello melt sandwich- delicious but i have had some others as well that were good. Have tried a selection of pastries which have been good as well. read more

Love the sticky buns, the coconut macaroons, the cookies, the sandwiches, you pretty much can't go wrong here with any item! However, I do wish they would enforce their policy of not having people sit at the tables doing homework or working on their computers during busy times. We always have a really hard time getting a table for 2 people here. People just stay there forever, even after they are done eating! Get a move on people and let some other people sit down to eat their meals while they are hot. read more

IN. LOVE. Go there immediately. The pastries, breads, sandwiches, soups, salads, and coffee/teas are all wonderful. Only complaint is that it's always crowded and not easy to get a seat. But that just means that a lot of people know it's awesome, right? read more

Good sandwiches at reasonable prices, free wifi and good location. A little noisy and smelly inside but otherwise perfect.

People that like Flour really love Flour. People who love Flour also don't have TV and enjoy bands that you probably haven't heard of. I applaud their ability to market their aesthetic so well. Bravo Flour, you mediocre sandwich-making bastard. read more

I used to love Flour Bakery until a bad experience today left me with a very bad taste in my mouth. My hubby decided to order me a triple mousse chocolate cake for my birthday and I was super excited about it. He called it in yesterday and the person readily took his order and did not make mention that at the time he placed the order that it would be an issue. This morning however, he received a call from the bakery saying that they couldn't fulfill the order because they they didn't have that size. However, he was offered a larger size cake without any compensation for the inconvenience, and he would be charged for the higher priced cake. We opted not to go for that option as that felt like a bait and switch. If you can't fulfill an order, say so at the time the order was placed! Not within a few hours of pick-up! How read more

Landed at this bakery after walking through MIT on a Sunday afternoon. The staff was friendly, honest and helpful. The sticky bun was sold out, unfortunately; however I was not disappointed by the recommendations of an employee. I bought the chocolate chip cookie, cream filled donut, pineapple banana cupcake, and a hot chocolate. The hot chocolate was rich and well worth it. The baked goods exceeded my expectations and I would definitely go back for the sticky buns! read more

Flour Bakery and Cafe is the best in the bakery biz... The bread and pastries are excellent and they make outstanding sandwiches and salads. There is a great neighborhood feel to this place and the employees are bright and friendly--even when the place is jammed. They know how to get the job done. My only issue is that at times it can get very crowded and there is not ample seating. read more

Amazing!! I have gone here multiple times and am always blown away by their food and pastries. I don't love how hectic it is to place orders/get food, but with food this good... read more

Great sandwiches, but super long waits around lunch time. I usually get the grilled sandwiches which take extra long at lunch time (they get backlogged preparing all the sandwiches). read more

Very good egg sandwiche and very tasty banana bread. There French toast was OK. The coffee not the best. Very Crowded place.

My husband, my pup and I love to grab coffee and some tasty treats here. Cannot go wrong with their lemon ginger scone or the sticky bun.

The foods are good, desserts are better, and services are alright. One thing I hate about this place is that they stack pizza and serve it. Basically all the cheese on the bottom slice are stuck on the top piece and I have to eat the bottom piece without any cheese. I understand that's the only container that they have, but is it necessary to serve like that even for dining in??? read more

I'm obsessed with the curried tuna sandwich. It was incredibly fresh and delicious! The service was great and very fast.

The staff at Flour make you want to return as much as the great coffee!! Baked goods are fantastic, i love the "Oreo" cookies, and always fresh! read more

I LOVE this place! It is THE best bakery I've ever been to. My dad works near it, so when we go into his office to visit or meet him, we always go to flour. I love their grilled cheeses and homemade raspberry lime soda water. Oh, and their pop tarts are to die for! I can't wait to get the cook book!!!!!!!!!!!(: read more

My low star # is primarily due to portion size, cost, & the long line around the corner for just OK food. For an $8 sandwich I expect it to be bigger, come w/cheese, & be the way I ordered it--it came w/a mystery sauce on it which was not in the sandwich description. I was hoping for chicken salad, but it was not on the menu the day I was there. I've heard great things about their cakes...but skipped it when I saw that they were charging almost $4 per cupcake. Food was fine, but nothing special. read more

I wanted to try this place for a while, finally I had a chance to stop by for a cup of coffee today. I tried their house blend and it was quite good. I didn't go there with high expectations and I was surprised. I had the simple coffee cake and it was unbelievable! So good. Perfectly baked! Love it! read more

I've eaten here at least 10 times, and each time I can't get enough of Flour. It's the best place for a quick, healthy (so long as you don't fall for the pastry cabinet) bite near the MIT campus. I've sampled only 20% of the bakery items available so far. The soups, salads, and sandwiches were excellent, and the half is the perfect size for a small appetite. If only there were more seats, but then I would expect those to be fully occupied as well. read more

Good, solid baked goods. Try the sugar coated brioche buns! Good coffee and friendly staff, too.

The sticky buns are their signature item and live up to their hype! Yum.There are huge! The sanwiches are very good but A little pricey.

This place is AMAZING. Their chocolate cupcakes, keylime cornmeal cookies, sandwiches, coffee... everything I've had at Flour has been fantastic. They always have a line but it does move fast. You might have to wait to find a seat, but they tend to open up pretty quickly. It is worth the wait for seating. read more

It took them forever to make a latte. Also, the portobello/mozarella sandwich wasn't very good, very bland.

We came upon Flour by chance while my daughter was at a swim meet at MIT.... SOOO glad Dunkins was closed! we took a walk, and stopped in. Yummm! raspberry bar was the best , and I got the hummus sandwich, tots sweet!! read more

Line is a quite long at 9:30am, but the food and drink are worth it! We liked it so much that we came back the next morning. We recommend the chai spice latte, the oatmeal, and the tartine. The jam on the tartine was so good that we asked to buy a jar of it. Outdoor and indoor seating. Groovy employees (think waxed mustaches, stretched ear lobes...). Patrons around us were having very intellectual conversations. This place had a hippie and friendly atmosphere, delicious food, and a perfect location in Central Square. read more

My favorite place to get a nice sandwich. Everything is very tasty, and you can sip a decent black coffee while you're waiting for your order (it's sad that lines are usually long, but what can you do?). read more

i love the lamb sandwich. i'm all about it. like creepily dreaming of it several times a week. they also have good pastries and breakfast sandwich. i get grumpy when i have to wait in a long line, but it's worth it. i really like the raspberry seltzer too. i wish they had umbrellas for their outdoor tables. i also wish they would give me a lifetime supply of their lamb sandwich, but a girl can only dream (of lamb). read more

Everything is absolutely delicious here. Their iced coffee was not quite as great as I expected but their mocha was phenomenal. I went three days in a row, trying their breakfast sandwich, some of their other sandwiches, and a slew of baked goods. Their chocolate brioche was absolutely perfect. Their sticky sticky buns were the best I've ever had -- go through the added effort of asking for that heated up, it will make a difference. This is now a go to resto when in Boston. read more

Everything I've had here has been yummy. The baked goods are delightful and the curry tuna sandwich is my favorite for lunch.

I love this place. Excellent pastry and quick, courteous service.

I've been here a couple of times and this place gets really, really crowded during lunchtime. The queue moves pretty fast though and I'm usually able to get a seat. I really like the quinoa with roasted veggie salad. Haven't had a chance to try the famous sticky bun yet but I'll be returning. read more

Breakfast sandwich was yummy though the egg was too thick. Latte was smooth and delish. Sticky bun lived up to the hype. Not too sweet and perfect caramel flavor. read more

Great sandwiches, but unfortunately they sell out their specials pretty quickly. It feels like their specials are always a big tease. Fortunately the regular menu and bakery options are pretty solid! read more

Coffee and hot chocolate were very good. We got a few pastries and cookies to share for the table. Heaven on the table during a cold night!

Had a delicious and filling brunch here last Saturday with a friend. Arrived at 9:30 and it was bustling but not annoyingly so, and we were able to seat ourselves easily. Highly recommend the sticky buns, as well as their muffins with fruit in them -- very moist and delicious and the fruit is tangy and sweet. I'd go back there for an assortment of goods if I was ever hosting a breakfast or brunch. The egg sandwich I had was very good but the ciabatta bread was a little overwhelming and I wished they had made the sandwich on bread that is less dense. In addition, this place isn't exactly cheap, but at least you're paying for good food. Service was friendly and knowledgable. read more

I bought the low-fat scone and the quinoa salad. I was disappointed with the texture of the scone - i've had better low-fat scones and for being known for the excellence of the baking, I was disappointed. I also was disappointed with the presentation and the proportion size of the salad. It could have definitely used more spinach. I got it to-go, and got it in their flimsy, non-eco-friendly take out containers. It was tasty enough, but wasn't really aesthetically pleasing. For that price, that should be part of the service. Seemed like a typical college bakery-cafe to me. read more

I am an avid foodie and was so excited to try Flour in Cambridge. I had heard good things and the reviews have been great. As expected, the place was busy when I arrived. The food is average, nothing great but not really that bad - middle of the road. I would like to say that the general manager of the place was incredible rude. He may have had a bad day, but he had a frown on his face and I saw him verbally attack THREE customers on the day I dined for no real apparent reason. I don't know how or why he would be in the hospitality industry with his attitude. I will not return to this establishment based SOLELY on his behavior. read more

I came here a few times for lunch, and wasn't sure what all the hype about this place was. Their sandwiches are pretty average and the portions are a bit small. Always very crowded and hard to get a seat. Maybe I should try their baked goods sometime. read more
