Funk ‘n Waffles – Downtown

Funk ‘n Waffles – Downtown is the Armory Square location of a locally owned Syracuse restaurant that mixes music and food. Two Syracuse University students started the business for students, and it has grown into a welcoming spot for all ages with an alternative feel.

The menu centers on waffles, from a traditional buttermilk waffle with syrup to less traditional versions topped with pulled pork. The kitchen uses as many local and organic products as it can, and prices stay realistic. It is also known for breakfast and brunch and for late-night eats.
