BOSTON, MA – JANUARY 21: Baked goods at Flour Bakery at 131 Clarendon St. in Boston are pictured on Jan. 21, 2020. Joanne Chang runs the Flour Bakery empire, but when it comes to her work space, Joanne Chang is like every freelancer whos ever opened a laptop in one of her cafes  angling for a good seat, at the mercy of the wireless connection, using a punch code to get into the bathroom. Working on-site keeps her connected to her employees, her customers, her sticky buns. (Photo by David L. Ryan/The Boston Globe via Getty Images)

According to their Instagram page, Flour Bakery is now open on Boston Common, taking over the space that had previously been home to a location of Earl of Sandwich. The new outlet offers baked goods, pastries, hot dogs, soft serve, coffee, and more, and it is currently open from 7:00 AM until 7:00 PM, though the closing time could change as the days get longer.

The space in which the new location of Flour has moved into had once been a public bathroom known as the Pink Palace for its pink-colored masonry.
