Flour is so great and LOCAL. Even if it already wasn't even close quality wise for food and drink, there's no excuse to go to a Starbucks or other national chain.
New option for that breakfast sandwich or lunch on the go if your commute takes you through the Common. Flour Bakery & Cafe’s new location at the old Earl of Sandwich is now open and taking orders…and it smells great! @wbznewsradio.bsky.social
