Funk ‘n Waffles is a Syracuse institution — a beloved music bar, restaurant, and community space at 307 South Clinton Street in the heart of the city’s Armory Square neighborhood. With capacity around 200, Funk ‘n Waffles books an eclectic mix of local, regional, and national touring acts across funk, jazz, soul, indie, hip-hop, and everything in between.
The restaurant serves its legendary waffles alongside a full bar, making it a perfect evening destination whether or not there’s a show. The live music calendar is consistently strong — this is one of Central NY’s most important small venues.
