Cafe Sankofa Cooperative - Syracuse

The place was homey and the people were nice helpful and friendly

An awesome Community space! For a minimal fee you can make this space yours! They accomodate all types of events. Every Saturday morning you can enjoy breakfast bowls, smoothies, coffee, tea, and muffins. In the summer time they feature Meatless Mondays and fish fry Fridays!

I came because the venue was hosting a candidate forum for local candidates running for political office . The Forum was very informative and the candidates varied in impressiveness, but the venue was nice. I had coffee it was good. I hope they host more events

This place was just a tease of a grocery store from the beginning. Produce, great; staff, great food, healthy. There was a bar-like fixture in the store that would have made a great coffee/espresso bar, but they didn't serve coffee. There was not a deli in the store either. Sure a deli, and a coffee bar would have required employees with any, needed training, and another certification for the store. Where was the healthier frozen food? This is why most of my grocery shopping is done down the street, on the Nedrow border.

The board ruined this place from the beginning. Twice, since they closed within about a year of opening both times. The best oart of the co op was the staff and produce.
