from Google & Yelp"This little coffee shop is an absolute gem. The atmosphere is warm and inviting with cozy décor that makes you want to linger over your drink. Highly recommend."
"I fell in love with the Recess Coffee in Westcott, and one day I happened to look for one closer to where I was — and I was so surprised to find this gem of a place. When I tell you the sandwiches here are on another level, I mean it — even compared to the other Recess locations or any coffee shop in the area. I’m originally from the city, and I can always appreciate the hell out of a good bagel sandwich — this spot makes it with love every single time. The customer service is incredible — super personable — and they even suggested I try my usual chai latte with cinnamon and added lavender. Oh my gosh… life-changing! I’m never going back to my old order. They’ve definitely got a customer for life. The atmosphere is beautiful, cozy, and so much more spacious than other coffee shops around. It’s the perfect spot to sit down, get some work done, or just enjoy the vibe. I absolutely love it here, and I’m sure anyone who stops in will too."
"Spacious and open with large windows and a simple not overwhelming set up. Coffee is good- they have pastry options, just not my preference. Service was just okay at this spot. Great spot to work/study"
"Lovely place to spend some time on the weekend! Personally, this is the best Recess Coffee I’ve been to in the Syracuse area. I had the Teddy Graham Latte, and I loved it. Highly recommend! Parking can be a bit tricky, though."
"Cozy coffee cafe with warm atmosphere, plenty of seating, and convenient parking around the store. Their breakfast sandwiches were some of the best we’ve had. Highly recommend the Vienna Croissant. They may have made the best latte I’ve ever had as well. So glad we decided to come here and would definitely come back if we were in the area."
"I tried Recess coffee once at the Syracuse farmers market and bought a bag of "campfire" beans and loved them. I've been hooked ever since. So I was..."
