Crema's Take

Wake Up brings Vietnamese coffee culture and freshly baked banh mi to downtown Syracuse's Water Street with genuine warmth and craft. Every drink is made with care and the bread is baked in-house daily, creating a cozy gathering spot where you can linger over a perfectly pulled traditional coffee or creative specialty drink while enjoying sandwiches that rival what you'd find in California. The staff's genuine friendliness and beautiful space make it feel less like a quick caffeine stop and more like a place worth braving any weather for.

What to expect

Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Light food on the menu. Family friendly.

What a great place to start the morning with! I had not one but two cups of coffee (vegan coconut and hue salt foam), and a vegan banh mi. My friend had the Hanoi egg coffee and he loved it so much he had a second! We will definitely be back.

Good coffee and sandwich. Just hope they can make sandwich faster. I wait about 30 minutes for two sandwiches. But the food and service is good. Both drink and food have vegan option!
