Concept

Crusty, crackling baguettes warm from the steaming oven ... buttery, raisin-filled brioche shaped in a swirl and drizzled with sweet icing ... silky-smooth double chocolate truffle tarts ... lemon curd cakes filled with raspberry preserves ... fresh, made-to-order salads and sandwiches.

Flour's concept was borne out of a passionate desire to share the simple pleasures that mouth-watering pastries and foods can bring.

Imagine enjoying a muffin still warm from the oven, made with real butter and fresh fruit, alongside an oversized mug of café au lait. For lunch, choose among daily specials such as cheesy polenta with spicy tomato sauce or an oven-baked asparagus and potato torte. Bring home a beautifully decorated birthday cake made with flourless chocolate cake layers, rich chocolate mousse, and crushed raspberries. We offer buttery breakfast pastries, grand homemade cookies, luscious tarts, gorgeous cakes, and sandwiches, soups, and salads.

Everything is prepared in-house by our professional kitchen staff. Our business includes morning commuters stopping in for breakfast, area employees and neighbors enjoying lunch, friends meeting for coffee and talk, office workers seeking to satisfy their 4pm sugar craving, people picking up bread, salad, or dessert for their evening meal.

Along with our quality product, our success depends on a well-trained, professional service staff. We strive to be constantly and consistently friendly, attentive, and courteous.

We want each customer's experience to be an enjoyable one, and we focus on all aspects involved: great food, gracious service, warm atmosphere, heady aromas, and irresistible displays.
