Cute aesthetic inside…read more I got a creme brûlée for $4 and a card for $5. I thought the creme brûlée was good and they do freshly brûlée the top. Some of the cake slices looked expensive at around $10 but that can be typical for some fancier bakeries just be aware. Some other prices pictured - $8 tiramisu cup, $7 apple crisp, etc. I look forward to coming back and trying more. They have many cute cards for sale as well as teas, coffee, earrings, magnets, stickers, and other merch. There's a clear Vietnamese influence as they offer some Lays chips flavors usually sold in Asia and some Vietnamese print postcards. They have free wifi and a restroom available. Plenty of outlets available - seems like it would be a good place to study as there were many people studying and they are open to 10pm on some weekdays. Unsure about the parking situation since I walked.

I was a little disappointed in my cannoli roll. It would have been better described as a whipped…read morecream cake roll. The half cannoli on top was also filled with whipped cream. It was also expensive for what it was. I also ordered a prepackaged slutty brownie, it was good, not great, but definitely better than the cake roll. There was only one person working which slowed service since they offer many items that need to be prepared. I may try again at a their cafe location the next time I am in town.

Think cinnamon bun but with other sweet and savory options. I was really hungry so I didn't get anything sweet but I wish I did! My friend and I ordered a mac and cheese and a breakfast one to split.

I was in Syracuse for work, looking for somewhere casual to grab a bite. Came across Sinbun, and I…read morecouldn't pass up their unique concept. Cinnamon rolls but with a savory twist. I got the buffalo chicken bun and it was delish! Just enough buffalo sauce, not overly spicy, a ranch drizzle to cool it down. I would definitely get this again. I also got fries with beer cheese. These were yummy too and was a good sauce choice. The staff was friendly, I took my food to-go but she offered to show me it for picture purposes before boxing it up! I'd love to come back when I'm in the area again!

I got the horchata latte, which was…read moredelicious, but my brother and cousin decided they wanted to get some special pour over that takes a while. I'm not a coffee connoisseur, so I don't know about these things. The ambiance is great. Modern looking building, cool coffee spot and has a bar connected to it. Lots of different seating, outdoor options. Nice flowers. Music's a little loud, but besides that, great place. Stop by.

I ordered a Biere de Miele (Belgian style honey beer) and my wife had a strawberry forward cocktail. As an aside, this is the best bar in the city for craft cocktails, and they are only $13 each!

If you're a donut lover, Glazed and Confused is worth the stop…read more We had a great experience here. My fiancé and son were even gifted two donuts by the kind woman behind the counter after my son excitedly shared he'd been helping clean up downtown for Earth Day. Such a thoughtful gesture!!! They loved the cinnamon bun and cereal killer donuts. The shop was clean and very busy, but service was quick and efficient. There are a few seats if you want to eat there, although it's more of a grab and go spot. Parking is street parking and can be tricky at times. They do offer a few gluten-free options, but nothing dairy-free. Overall, great donuts and genuinely kind service--we'd definitely return!

The staff was nice and even wrote a nice thank you note on my to go box. Inviting little nook of Syracuse, and happy to have a chance to order a couple of donuts that were all pretty tasty. Only "complaint" was that I seemed to receive the runts of the donuts, but we also did not need three humongous donuts for two people, and ordered very close to closing, so that's on us! And even being smaller donuts, they were not "small" or lacking in flavor, only small compared to some other donuts/flavors still available. Can't wait to come back and try more- surprisingly the buckeye was the favorite despite me not loving an abundance of toppings usually. Not crazy sweet and lots of flavor!

I wish…read morethey had a hard chocolate option that didn't have chili flakes in it at the time that I stopped. They did offer a vegan hard chocolate. The soft ice cream is delicious! Will come back later in the season to see if they have expanded their Gifford's flavors.

Lovely little ice cream downtown, generally relatively easy to find parking near by…read more I believe all the ice cream is homemade, they nornally have a handful of vegan options as well. Not sure if the waffle cones are homemade but if you eat ice scream slow like me-they are slightly thicker than normal which prevents your ice cream leaking out the bottom. I highly suggest the chocolate dip cone . They have a cast of rotating classic and seasonal flavors. Employees are always friendly and willing to answer any questions. Inside is clean with a fair amount of sitting. I also enjoy sitting outside and enjoying any live music happening in Clinton Square.

I tried the chocolate chip easter cookie and the sprinkles added a little crunch that was super delightful in this cookie. The owner was very nice and they also have finger lakes coffee here which is the perfect pairing with your cookie. The cookies are $3.50 a piece, pretty normal for syracuse bakeries. They're not massive thick cookies, but they're a solid size. Great place to grab a little treat while you're in armory square or right after visiting the MOST.
