Boston's South End was originally tidal marshes up until the late 1840's when the city decided to transform it into a residential area with a focus on community. It's charm comes from Charles Bulfinch's design for the area which was inspired by 18th-century English cities where rows of townhouses overlooked tree-lined streets, brick sidewalks and beautiful parks. The neighborhood has had it's ups and downs since then, but today it is one of the most desireable places to live in the city, and continues to expand and evolve. It is home to some of the city's best restaurants, gourmet food trucks, boutiques, vintage shopping, theaters, galleries and picturesque rowhouses, all packed into just a few walkable city blocks. We'd like to thank you to Tony Luong for shooting the majority of our photos.

Flour is a modern bakery serving up incredible baked goods, breads, sandwiches, soups, salads and more. Oh they serve coffee too, plus homemade pop tarts, award-winning banana bread, sticky buns, flourless chocolate cake... you get the idea. Everything is prepared in house by their chefs and professional kitchen staff, and it shows. Don't let the long line scare you off, the staff has a pretty good system down for making sure the wait isn't too bad.
