The Syracuse University Ultimate Breakfast Guide

Breakfast is one of the most coveted meals of the day for everyone, Syracuse University students included. Pre-coronavirus there would be swarms of students heading to Water Street Bagel Co., Oh My Darling and Rise N Shine Diner for a morning pick-me-up. COVID is a serious concern for all students and faculty, but that does not mean that we should not be able to eat our breakfast and stay safe at the same time! Here is College Corner's guide to the best and safest breakfast places in Syracuse, NY! 

Water Street Bagel Co.
While there is no more indoor seating, Water Street Bagel Co. is a coveted breakfast spot for Syracuse University students! It boasts wild cream cheeses such as jalapeno and pumpkin spice as well as a rosemary salt bagel! They are taking coronavirus seriously by not allowing customers to eat in the restaurant. A maximum of four people are allowed in-shop at a time, and you have to order online before coming to pick it up! Water Street Bagel Co. is most definitely at the top of our list for the best and most COVID safe breakfast places in Syracuse! 
Recommendation: Rosemary salt bagel with veggie cream cheese

Rise N Shine Diner
Breakfast at Rise N Shine Diner should be on every college student's bucket list before they graduate! With food ranging from pancake taco to plain eggs and bacon, Rise N Schine is definitely an Instagram hotspot. The food is not only delicious, but the atmosphere is bright and will help you start your day positively! Rise N Shine Diner has been following COVID guidelines by making their menu completely digital, placing hand sanitizer at every seat and asking customers to wear their masks anytime they are not eating! Rise N Shine is a Syracuse staple and I encourage everyone to start their day off with a waffle quesadilla. 
Recommendation: Breakfast pancake tacos

Oh My Darling 
Oh My Darling is easily the most sought-after breakfast spot in town! You will always see someone you know sitting down and enjoying one of their delicious breakfast options and maybe a coffee. Oh My Darling has done their part to prevent the spread of COVID in our community by spacing all indoor seating 6 feet apart, placing hand sanitizer at every table, providing disposable menus and putting antiseptic overs on all door handles. Eating here is definitely gives you a taste of luxury and comfort while close to campus!
Recommendation: Avocado toast

Mom's Diner
While not being one of the more well-known breakfast spots on campus, Mom's Diner definitely deserves a spot on this list! Located in the Westcott neighborhood of Syracuse, it is a short walk away from campus. Mom's Diner has been extremely COVID safe and has not opened its doors for indoor seating! This allows the customers to feel confident they will not come into contact with the virus while getting their mouth-watering bacon, egg, cheese and hashbrowns breakfast sandwich. 
Recommendation: Bacon, egg, cheese and hashbrowns on a toasted roll
