Crema's Take
“This cash-only espresso sanctuary run by Doug is where specialty coffee devotion meets genuine hospitality in Syracuse. Whether you're stopping in for a meticulously pulled shot of their legendary Christmas blend or a thoughtful pour over, Doug will walk you through the nuances of what makes each cup special—and his warm recommendations extend beyond coffee to the best spots around the city. It's the kind of place where stripping away pretension and credit card convenience reveals exactly what great coffee should be: focused, unpretentious, and memorable.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program. Slow-sit spot. Cash only.

They sell really delicious coffee. Doug is such a nice person — he told me a lot about coffee and recommended great places to visit in the city. It’s my top recommendation in Syracuse. I’ll definitely come back here if I visit the city again.
Best bulk bean coffee in town, hands down. Roasted daily, fresh as you can get. Monday is light roast, Friday is dark. Does have coffee cups for sale but take it to go. This is a place to buy and leave, not sit for hours. If you have time, Doug will educate you on coffee.
The Kind Coffee Co. is best quality coffee in Syracuse. Doug has a perfect understanding of coffee and explains how to enjoy it in the best way. If you want to truly understand and enjoy coffee, you must visit this place. Although I've only lived in the U.S. for six months, he…
