For $7 you can get a cup of watery soup and a "salad". The "salad" is a handful of lettuce with a side of dressing that isn't enough to cover the lettuce. I should have asked what they consider a "salad" to be and I should have asked for a sample of the soup. Flour is known for their desserts...and now I know why! Agree with other reviews that the service is slow (even the coffee)- especially at the new location. Hopefully, management takes notice and makes some changes so that they don't lose business to the local spots who have some dedicated customers.

Pros: New place in the area

Cons: Slow service and more expensive than other local spots. Has kids menu- if you want to pay $5 for a PB&J.
