our mission
We opened our first bakery in the South End in 2000 with one goal: to make the world a sweeter place through warm smiles, gooey sticky buns, and irresistible BLTs. Every day we pinch ourselves that we get to do what we love - share awesome food and welcoming hospitality - with everyone who walks through our doors and visits us here.
Led by James Beard Award-winning pastry chef + co-owner Joanne Chang, Flour Bakery now has nine locations in Boston + Cambridge. We offer buttery breakfast pastries; soft + chewy cookies; luscious pies; gorgeous cakes; and fresh, made-to-order sandwiches, soups, and salads - all prepared daily by our dedicated team.
We are passionate in our pursuits to:
- Share the best food + drink with our guests
- Provide enthusiastic, genuine, welcoming service to our guests,
our partners, and each other - Operate an ethical and efficiently run business
- Support our community by participating in local education, hunger relief, arts, and charity events; and donating a portion of all annual revenue to organizations chosen by Flour Bakery team members
- Create an inclusive work environment that inspires our team to make Flour a better place for team members and guests alike
