Cristos' Cafe - Syracuse

This is an excellent spot for drinks, snacks, and breakfast and lunch options like sandwiches, gyros, bagels, soups, and desserts, along with some intriguing daily specials. It's conveniently situated in the center of the gallery building. The owners, Cristo and Nikki, are often on-site and provide great service. I tried the latte, gyros, desserts, homemade soup, and breakfast sandwiches, and everything was delicious. You can either place an order or enjoy some seating in the café or lobby area. They accept Apple Pay, but please note that there is a 50-cent fee for using it. At least they offer that option, unlike Pizza Square (Pavone's) across the street, which doesn't accept it at all.

I frequently visit this café for lunch. They serve great coffee, delicious soups, and sandwiches at affordable prices. The couple who run the café are really friendly!

I absolutely love this restaurant! I recently moved to Syracuse, and as a deaf vegetarian, I’ve found my go-to spot here. I usually order the veggie pita and grab some hummus from the chilled case. Pairing that with a bottle of water makes for a perfect lunch. The gyros do look tempting, but unfortunately, they have meat. The desserts also look delicious, though they tend to be too sweet for my taste. The staff is incredibly friendly, which adds to the great experience!

Nice staff! Great food with daily specialties. Everything is always fresh and made to order. Plan to go early or plan a little extra time for lunch rush. Eat or take off.

Very kind, and friendly staff. Great place for a quick bite to eat. Amazing soups and desserts. Coffees are great. They try to buy local as much as they can, which is a huge plus.
