Good ice cream may be in the eye of the enjoyer, but everyone knows when you have sub par soft serve. The North Pole is owned by the owners of Serendipity Cafe next door (also awesome) and they check all 4 boxes for me. They almost always have 2 windows open to serve patrons and a decent amount of seating. We are fans! Go check them out!

Up until a few years ago you really couldn't find macarons in any local bakeries, so I would only indulge on my trips into larger cities. Now, you can more readily find them but quality differs. I've been wanting to try Moonflower for many months now and had a chance the other day. Their marketing game is on point, beautifully packaged and presented product. The shop is set back from the road so you can easily miss it, maybe some additional signage would help. The shop is consistent with their refined aesthetic but is tiny, maybe only two customers can be in the shop simultaneously. The younger staff who helped me was very nice and knowledgeable about the product. The macarons are sublime, gorgeous and authentic (crisp on outside, proper feet, slight interior chew). The flavor variety is delightful. I love that some of the flavors are unique and unexpected such as frosted animal cookie. My favorite was the pistachio raspberry, there was an actual raspberry in the center. They change up their flavors every month. Truly a one of a kind bakery in the area. Clearly a lot of care goes into the product. I will return again and again. Merci!

Cake Bar - The Cafe is an adorable stop in downtown Syracuse…read more The interior is really modern, inviting, and has gentle music playing. There is always a pleasant vibe to it and often there are people chatting or working on laptops. Employees are always really nice. I really enjoy the Pandan Matcha. Its so hard to find pandan drinks in the area! I find the drinks are often really sweet and so its important to order them with no sugar or less sugar. The boba is okay although the straws they have been using lately are too small for them so they lose some of the shape and correct texture. A random thing I love about their drinks are they used a crushed ice, it makes it feel appropriately portioned to the drink itself. Although I am not a coffee person, the cafe lattes are my partner's favorite in the area and they are highly customizable. It's also nice that they offer a carrier when you have a few drinks to-go. Interestingly, the cake and desserts are the weaker part for me for Cake Bar. They are often pretty dry for my tastes. My favorite has been the potato chip cookies, but I have only seen them a few times. The chicken wing dip buns are pretty good and filling though and are worth trying! Overall its a great stop and a nice place to bring friends when they stop by or to hang out whilst doing some work.

Unfortunately, a woman appeared at the counter and told me I could come back one hour and forty-five minutes later when it would be ready. I asked why they didn't set aside my order for my arrival. After some gaslighting and poor customer service response, I asked for a refund and left. She marked the order as complete on the app, and my charge is still pending on my credit card. I have to wait until it clears to officially dispute it. Would not recommend this store to anyone in the area. The floors seemed rather dirty and the boxes they were pre-assembling at one point were on the floor prior to being put in a larger box. It was a busy day, however, this experience was incredibly disappointing and overall store volume and pre-orders should be managed better.
