Joanne Chang's Flour Bakery & Cafe is unveiling its 10th location at Boston Common, showcasing unique menu items like the Embrace morning bun, inspired by the park's iconic statue. This 600-square-foot stand has no indoor seating but features a prep kitchen and outdoor seating. Despite its constraints, the menu will highlight popular items along with daily specials. With hopes to attract year-round customers, the location aims to fill a gap in food options at the park, celebrating Boston's culture through its offerings.
We have this beautiful, iconic, public park, and there are no food options other than a couple of pushcarts. The team is looking at its latest location as a celebration of and for Boston, with food to match.
Chang hopes the place gets busy enough to stay open year-round; the team is already thinking about hot chocolate specials to complement skating on Frog Pond.
The resulting Embrace morning bun is one of several unique, new menu items exclusive to Flour Boston Common, which all play up a sense of place.
Flour Boston Common is unlike any other outpost of the beloved local bakery chain. Though it has a spacious basement prep kitchen for its staff of 11, the café's quirks led the Flour team to streamline its familiar menu.
