Crema's Take

Strong Hearts Cafe is an all-vegan spot in Syracuse that's surprisingly satisfying even for committed meat lovers, with standout comfort foods like their creamy mac and cheese and surprisingly convincing plant-based takes on classics like Reuben sandwiches. The bright, fun atmosphere makes it equally welcoming whether you're grabbing a quick coffee and pastry or settling in for a leisurely meal, and they've clearly nailed their baking program with treats like their sweet and sassy molasses creation. With an impressive 4.7 rating from nearly 2,000 reviews, it's become the go-to spot for both dedicated vegans and flexitarians looking for genuinely craveable food that happens to be plant-based.

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, quick-grab. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Nice roomy caféstyle restaurant. The music was a little loud but other than that, the food was good. Atmosphere is roomy and bright. Small parking lot right across the street (maybe up to 10 cars). We were there on Easter Sunday and we're able to park right in front of the door.

There are no vegan options at SYR so I stopped at Strong Hearts on the way. Grabbed the Rueben sandwich and didn’t get to eat til after I parked, made it through security, and found my gate. By that time, it was no longer hot but it was still delicious. Additionally everyone at…

As a meat and cheese lover (trying to eat less of both), I’m so glad I tried this place- it’s delicious! I also felt more full after just half my meal, which usually doesn’t happen. Will definitely be back!! I got the sassy chicken sandwich with truffle fries and it was all so…
