It does not make sense for one with a gluten sensitivity to go into a cafe called the Flour Girl Cafe, but if you say 'flour" out loud, it sounds ilke "flower," so, whatevah, guy.My goal was to "coffee, coffee, coffee" as Lorelai Gilmore does.Not "bagel, bagel, bagel" as others may do. But the Flour Girl Cafe is a curiosity, because for such a rural part of Connecticut, it has quite the independent spirit.And for a town to *support* a business like this, as Hebron is not a population center, is indicative of a healthy town spirit.The Flour Girl Cafe is sorely needed in places like Fort Fairfield, Maine, or a town center outside of the more urbane areas of a Southern region.It feels like a place where everyone can gather.Where people are welcome. It kind of reminded me of Star's Hollow from Gilmore Girls.Star's Hollow is modelled after a town in CT called Washington, which is west of Hartford, while Hebron is east of Hartford, but the feel of a town center is there.I parked in a lot and walked along a brick addled sidewalk towards the Flour Girl Cafe to get my coffee. Approaching it was wonderful, because you could see a lot of what the town of Hebron has to offer.But once I got in, there was a variety of places to sit, menu options to pick from, and a display case that would allow a glutenous customer to select from. A coffee was purchased here, hehe.But one can see where the time flies by when visiting Flour Girl Cafe.I recommend that you stop by here with a friend to see what Connecticut has to offer.Choose something from their menu, grab a beverage and walk along the town center.It has the feel of a quiet town, but it also feels like it welcomes everyone who might need a bite to eat, or at least, a coffee to drink.

Thank you so much for this Timothy! An honor and a pleasure to be compared to Star’s Hollow!
The cafe and bakery are beautiful.The service, attentive.The breads are a must to take home, and the pretty areas for sitting and enjoying breakfast are a must do.The honey lavender latte was so special, and all of our breakfasts were delicious.We took the laminated sourdough cinnamon bread and love it with jam in the morning. It's definitely worth a visit.
