I've been on a mission to find coffee shops in Syracuse that are open late enough for me to unwind…read moreafter work, and Milano had been on my list for a while. After finally visiting, I can honestly say the pictures don't do this place justice. The atmosphere is cozy, welcoming, and somehow elevated at the same time. It felt less like a coffee shop and more like hanging out in a friend's beautifully decorated home. I spent a few hours there editing a YouTube video, and it was exactly the type of environment I've been searching for. Since it was my first visit, I wanted to try a few different things. I ordered the strawberry vanilla matcha, which was surprisingly good. It was a little sweeter than I expected, but the flavor was excellent. I'm not usually a matcha girl, but I'd definitely order it again. Their menu is extensive, with several drink options, flavored matchas, pastries, cheesecakes, and even the viral fruit pastries that I saw several customers purchasing while I was there. One thing that really stood out to me was that they actually offer food. I ordered a jerk beef patty and a jumbo apple fritter, both of which were delicious. They also had other savory options available, including spinach pie and additional patties. As someone who arrived hungry, I appreciated having more substantial options than the typical coffee shop pastry selection. The staff were wonderful. They mentioned that they love welcoming new guests, and it definitely showed. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and patient while I stood there trying to decide what I wanted to order. I never felt rushed, and they were happy to answer questions and make recommendations. The only thing to keep in mind is parking. Since Milano is located in the heart of downtown Syracuse, you'll most likely need to park on the street. If you're visiting before 6 p.m., be prepared to pay for parking. Overall, I had a great experience. I thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere, the food, the drinks, and the customer service. I'll definitely be back, and Milano has quickly become one of the strongest contenders in my search for the perfect late-night coffee shop.

Love this place! I've been here many times and have taken everyone in my family here…read more I love their lattes. Their coffee is strong and delicious. They also have an array of pastries and baked goods. Their bagels are extremely fresh too. There is plenty of comfy seating available and the decor and ambiance here is relaxing and cozy. I love this spot! I can't wait to head back here soon.

We had bagel sandwiches; both were delicious and well made! I enjoyed an iced coffee as well, and am looking forward to trying their flavored cold brew. The space was cute, and if we were looking for a spot to take a real break from driving I'd definitely hang out there for lunch. Service was friendly and helpful. If I were local, it would be a great study/remote work spot. Looking forward to stopping again soon!

I should've asked for a straw and it would've been no big deal, but I didn't and I was halfway down the road when I realized it. It won't stop me from coming back. Solid 4+ stars I'll be back for sure

On my first visit, I ordered an iced latte with peach syrup and cold foam. My boyfriend ordered the iced apple crisp latte (I think that was the name of the seasonal special), which was quite shocking because he tells me he HATES coffee. News flash: He doesn't, or just realllllly liked this specific latte. I can't exactly recall what syrup combination I got in my hot latte the next day. It was also great. I'm sick of coffee shops being lazy and using Torani or Monin syrups. Clerk's makes their own, and they are delicious! I also thought the prices were fair. There was a cute little nook by the window and the space is adorable. Service was efficient and the baristas were helpful, providing great recommendations. Can't wait to make another visit soon!

Let me preface that my partner already left a 5 star review on our behalf but I'm also leaving a…read morereview because it's so worthy. I've eaten at the Cider Mill which was also a 5 star experience so I had high hopes for their bakery. I mainly came to have the PBJ latte which was incredible, if I could order PB cold foam on everything I would. The service was incredibly friendly and fast. We ended up ordering brunch as well with the breakfast wrap and the Calabrian panini. The focaccia blew us away, I was licking my fingers. We bought sourdough and a cookie to-go because we just couldn't get enough The bakery is clean with indoor seating and very homey decor

The young lady behind the counter appeared to be working alone and was struggling to keep up. It took about ten minutes to get a latte which tasted pretty darn good however when dining in, I prefer a real cup and saucer instead of a cheap carboard cup ..I did ask for one and was told they are not available... and for a $6 cup of coffee I think they should be.

They have every type of seating option you could possibly want to enjoy a coffee at. Not to mention that the coffee is delicious, each latte is better than the last and I've never been dissatisfied. The service is wonderful, it is a small staff, but they are so friendly, they remember their customers so well, and they are a joy to be around. They are my top cafe in the area hands down :)

When I order online for drive up they will typically bring it out without you having to call. The atmosphere is nice. My baby really enjoys the baby yoda over the espresso machine.

In the morning we got there right at 8 and it was pretty empty, but the staff was friendly and attentive. We got a couple of lattes and a smoothie bowl - all were great! I love that they have a ton of locally sourced and healthy ingredients. For lunch, we got a wrap and a salad and both were very fresh and tasty. They have a big variety of loose leaf teas so I enjoyed an iced green tea which was perfect on a hot summer day! It was pretty busy for lunch but they were still very quick. It's a pretty big space with lots of seating options and even some books & board games.
