They also sell some very cute greeting cards, earrings, magnets, etc. We ordered two drinks (Ube Espresso, Crème Brûlée latte), a flower pot mini cake (chocolate cake with raspberry filling in a decorative flower pot), a crème brûlée donut, and a spinach puff. The desserts were good, with the flower pot mini cake being our favorite. The chocolate cake was moist and the raspberry filling was balanced. We didn't love the flower frosting on top, but it was very pretty. The donut was very unique and filled to the brim with a fluffy cream - though we both thought it could've had a bit more flavor. The dough was perfect - soft and pillowy. The crème brûlée top made for a fun eating experience as the thin hard sugar had a satisfying crunch. The spinach puff was also delicious. Flaky pastry and cheesy filling - very comforting. The stars of the show were the drinks. The coffee was superb - balanced, smooth, and rich in flavor. While I didn't find the ube flavor to stand out, the ube espresso drink was still one of my favorite coffee drinks I've had. The Crème Brûlée latte was my friend's favorite - it was the perfect dessert drink. It even had the sugar crust on top. I would definitely come back to try more of their menu!

Business is under new ownership. Used to be great.. No longer Frydays Best. Is now East Ave. Deli…read more Ordered fried fish dinner and two subs. Fish was dry and almost inedible in part. Fries were limp and soggy. Tartar sauce was warm and tasted off. Cole slaw was chalky and tasted like it was not fresh. Subs were OK but not great for $10 a piece. Value for the price was pathetic. Almost $40 for mediocre food. For MUCH betters subs/sandwiches go to Wegmans or even Byrnsie's (Inside Byrne Dairy). For MUCH better fish dinner, go to Eddie's in Sylvan Beach (bit of a drive but always worth it) or even Good Gollys. Will not be back again.

The informative staff let me know that all of the gelato in house was made by them, so I had to try some. The green apple flavor I was able to taste was delicious and really took the sour apple to gelato challenge. I also got my standard vanilla cone with rainbow sprinkles. The ice cream was creamy to the right consistency and the spread of sprinkles was complete. Sprinkle flavor was a bit grainy, but not enough to take away from the overall feel of the cone. I definitely plan to stop back for some more of the gelato when I am in the area next time !

I've lived in a number of cities around the country and can confidently say that this isn't just the best pastry shop I've tried in Upstate NY, but it's the best I've ever tried. The staff is extremely welcoming, kind, helpful, and patient through the ordering process and I love that it's run and owned by a local family. Although I don't live in the area, I order them frequently to send to friends and family and always visit when I'm in town. I consistently get excellent feedback on how much everyone LOVES their pastries which always look as good as they taste. I also appreciate that you can order a variety of mini pastries in advance. Their new location is beautiful, very clean, and a great place to meet for coffee or get some work done. They have an expansive menu with a number of unique flavor options. They're also very innovative because in addition to all of the usual staples, they also offer new, creative takes classic pastries like their flavored cannoli fillings. Highly recommend.

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.
