50 Best Coffee Shops near East Syracuse

“I stopped in for lunch yesterday and had a great experience. The staff was very friendly, the food was delicious and the whole environment was so cozy. I hope to come back soon!“

“This morning was that awful snowstorm, and I couldn’t even make it to work driving in it. I pulled into the DD parking lot to wait for the snow to ease up. I went in while I waited, and by the time I finished ordering a large coffee and just any donut; it was in front of me! I didn’t get an offer of a receipt to thank the two women working there, and the tap to pay didn’t prompt to add a tip, but it was a really nice part of a bad morning. The donut they picked for me was also really good, some big glob of frosting on top.“

“Dunkkin has the best coffee hands down“

“Mike is great! The food is fresh and you get it quickly! ❤️“

“Great location and serice here. Was no waiting for someone to get to the drive up window. Took my order, got my donut and coffee to go,(obviously, lol). Said thank you and left a $2 cash tip. The girl who waited on me was really quick to perfection. Her name is Madisyn or Maddy. Whatever, she was really great and had an infectious smile, a super personality ,and was very professional throughout the entire transaction process that only took maybe 2 or three minutes. The store is modern and very clean in the kitchen area. At least from what I could see as I paid my $4.32. It's nice to have a super great person like Madisyn/Maddy wait on multiple clients at once, and never lose her place in either order. Not one misstep with her. I'll shop there again. Keep up the great work young lady.“

“Cafe Blue was the best coffee I have ever had! I will be coming back for sure!“

“Super friendly and fast service! Delicious latte and the crepes....omg! So good! Got the turkey crep and the lemon curd. The the turkey was seasoned so incredibly and perfectly juicy! Then apples and brie with it...so delicious! Definitely recommend this little place!“

“I absoltely love this place been going since 2006“

“If you’ve never tried the strawberry matcha from Cake Bar, you have to! I wasn’t even a fan of matcha before, but this drink completely changed my mind. It’s honestly the best I’ve ever had!!! I could drink it every single day! The customer service is immaculate. There was a short line, but it moved quickly. The atmosphere is so calming and cozy. I especially loved all the plants around the café. Their menu is huge too, with so many delicious options to choose from. I can’t wait to go back and try more!“

“Absolutely the best cafe in CNY!“

“The food is cooked perfectly and has that old school small breakfast/lunch diner feeling. I am in there almost every day of the work week. Great breakfast sandwiches and the Fish sandwich on Fridays is delicious and big“

“I love Strong Hearts! 💕 their food is always amazing, and their menu even inspires some of the food I make at home!! they are definitely a staple in the vegan community and I am so happy to see them grow, from Syracuse to Buffalo! ❤️💛“

“Stopped in Syracuse for a couple of days and my friend who goes to school there recommended this place — and it did not disappoint! I got an iced caramel latte and it definitely hit the spot — though it was not as sweet as I typically like. I imagine this is a great place for students to go because there’s a ton of seating and also seems like a really inclusive environment. I didn’t try any food, but I was told they had a wide selection.“

“Great service! Great food“

“Recommended! Love this Place“

“I give all my buyer clients gift baskets when they close on a new home. In every basket I include the three items that are a part of an old traditional house blessing: “Bread—that this house may never know hunger, Salt—that life may always have flavor, and Wine—that joy and prosperity may reign forever” I always use small, local businesses for the products to make and fill my basket. Especially the bread! I want it to be same-day fresh, and from a bakery as close to the client’s new home as possible. Well, yesterday I had a final walkthrough with a client in the Scottholm neighborhood, and Tous Les Jours was the closest option. Boy was I blown away by every detail of this shop!! It was pristine, every item and every surface sparkled and gleamed, there were so many delicious looking pastries and so many I had never seen before! The chefs were dressed in beautiful gingham uniforms and chatted with us as easily as if they had known us for years. I will definitely be going back many times. And my clients very much appreciated the delicious, authentic French Baguette!“

“A reflection of true coffee shop feel that emboldens good price for a cup of "different" Java where you feel welcome to the surprise of actually having somewhere to get out of the home. Take a minute and see The World from a different point of view before stepping back out into madness...“

“Best bulk bean coffee in town, hands down. Roasted daily, fresh as you can get. Monday is light roast, Friday is dark. Does have coffee cups for sale but take it to go. This is a place to buy and leave, not sit for hours. If you have time, Doug will educate you on coffee.“

“I tried one of your light roasts this week for the first time and it is amazing! I will definitely be a repeat customer!“

“Their breakfast sandwich was SPOT ON! *chef's kiss* The everything bagel was so soft and fresh, the chili mayo was absolutely key, and the egg was perfect. Their breakfast wrap was also delicious. Great mocha latte and coffee too ? ?? ?

Vegetarian options: I asked for the breakfast sandwich without meat. They were happy to do that.“

“Friendly staff. Great food. It’s worth the price. Highly recommended for anyone.“

“I got an iced latte with oat milk. Delicious! And the barista working this morning was super sweet. Thank you so much. 💛“

“I visited yesterday this Dunkin' Donuts, and I was thoroughly impressed with the experience. The staff was incredibly friendly and efficient, ensuring that my order was prepared quickly and exactly as I requested. The chai latte was fresh and flavorful, the perfect pick-me-up for the day. And the maple donut? Simply delicious—soft, sweet, and with just the right amount of glaze. The store was clean and inviting, making it a pleasant place to sit and enjoy my treat. Whether you're grabbing a quick coffee on the go or staying for a while, Dunkin' Donuts never disappoints. Highly recommended!“

“I wanted an iced Chai, but I did forget to say iced. I got a warm chai. I tasted it and I loved it. My two buddies got their stuff and we were chilling and enjoying our purchases. The batista stops by our table and I told him I forgot to say "iced" and he was willing to get me an iced chai. That is my go to place from now on. I kept the one he gave me and told him I really liked the extra chaieeness of the chai. Been to other places and they seem to be watered down some. This was more chaiee...“

“I have been looking for a bialy for some time and while there are plenty of places that make bagels, so few have bialy on their menu. I found the bialy here to have very good texture and flavor, but wish there was more onion and poppy seed, which is very traditional on a bialy.“

“Update 1-14-25. Went here to order two hot mocha lattes, service was wonderful, coffee was much better than the other store at N Geddes and W Genesee street and we were treated with respect and kindness, much better than the store where the other Dunkin' that has Diane as the manager ever did. Bravo to Velasko Road location Thanks for making our experience a wonderful one we will bring back more business here . AA++“
