Freedom of Espresso
115 Solar St, Syracuse, NY
Crema's Take
“This espresso-focused café in a converted manufacturing space delivers standout cappuccinos thanks to skillful baristas who take their craft seriously, making it worth seeking out despite its tucked-away location. With big bright tables, comfy seating, and a welcoming vibe, it's the kind of place where you can linger over a traditional espresso drink and pastry, or pop across the street to Franklin Square for a peaceful moment with your cup.”

Great spot to grab an espresso drink and a little nosh. Go across the street and relax in Franklin Sq to drink your coffee. Very peaceful.
I am visiting Syracuse for the first time and came across this jewel in town. I had one of the best cappuccinos I’ve ever had. Very clean and welcoming place. The barista was very skilled. Highly recommended.
Literally some of the worst most overpriced coffee I’ve ever had, everything about it is bad. Half stale bagels and muffins, I’ve been to bowling alley’s with better coffee and it’s $4.50 for a small hot coffee! Now the only charm is that this location is amazing, it’s such a shame they took this fabulous location and ruined it.
Great little cafe in a great location. I just ordered a coffee with a shot of butterscotch, but it was pretty tasty. The building the cafe is situated looks to have been an old manufacturing plant with red brick and wooden beams but, with the plants and artwork in the room, it's quite a nice atmosphere. The service was quick and efficient. Great place to grab a coffee and sit in Franklin Square Park on a nice Saturday afternoon.
Super nice staff, good coffee, plenty of bright light on big tables and comfy chairs. Delicious chocolate too. Vaguely hard to spot from the road if you’re from out of town. Pleasant surroundings.
