Crema's Take

Across The Hall is a cozy Syracuse spot that's earned serious praise for doing the classics exceptionally well, from genuinely outstanding Biscoff beignets that rival Southern standards to burgers and chicken and waffles that keep people coming back. The vibe strikes that perfect balance between quick-service convenience and a genuine slow-café atmosphere where the staff actually engage with you like humans, creating the kind of hidden-gem feeling that makes a casual visit feel like discovering something special.

Upon leaving class today I was greeted to a box of biscoff beignets. These were without a doubt the beignets ive ever had, and I grew up in the south. They were just perfect, not too sweet but still a delicious desert. A perfect mouthfeel. I cannot personally speak for the inside of the restaurant but to quote my mother who had been inside "it was great and the owner was super nice too, very cool guy" which dear reader you have my Local Guide guarantee that she is a trustworthy source.

What a wonderful hidden gem of a café. I stopped into town for a doctor’s appointment and came across this spot on Google, and I’m so glad I did. The service was quick, the ingredients were fresh and high quality, and the staff was incredibly kind and welcoming. Our food came out promptly and tasted fantastic. The dessert selection was excellent, and we were even treated to a complimentary strawberry cheesecake, which was such a thoughtful touch. A truly great experience from start to finish—10/10.

It was really great food and a great atmosphere! This place has a real good cozy feeling and the staff were down to earth and genuine. Had a nice conversation with the guy running the register and welcoming people in. Also a good price for what you get portion wise!

I order the chicken and waffles. The chicken was unseasoned and fatty. The tater tots were standard. The waffle was relatively small. The glaze was pretty good.

What a great hamburger!! I think it was one of the best I ever had. It was a simple one, forgot the name but was amazing! The sweet potato friers were spot on too!! The chicken sub and the tots were ok, nothing special. The beignet was super duper oily lol definitely different from New Orleans ones, but is all good. Was totally worth for the burger!! Edit- the burger name is downtown deluxe!! Try it
