Target Stores in the Syracuse and Onondaga County Area

   Target, the popular American retail chain known for its affordable yet stylish assortment of clothing, home goods, electronics, groceries, and more, has a strong presence in Onondaga County. Serving the greater Syracuse area, these locations provide convenient shopping options with services like Drive Up, Order Pickup, Same Day Delivery, and often in-store Starbucks and CVS pharmacies. As of late 2025, there are four Target stores throughout the county, strategically placed to cover the west, north, and east sides of Syracuse.

Western Syracuse: Target Camillus (Fairmount)
- Located at 3657 W Genesee St, Syracuse, NY 13219 (in the Fairmount/Camillus area),
- This store is a go-to for western suburbs residents. It features a full grocery section, Starbucks Cafe, CVS pharmacy, and beer sales. This location made headlines in 2024 when it temporarily closed due to a fire started by a child but fully reopened after repairs, continuing to serve the community reliably.

Northern Syracuse: Target Clay (Liverpool)
- At 3857 State Route 31, Liverpool, NY 13090 (in the town of Clay)
- This store caters to shoppers in the Liverpool and northern Onondaga County areas. Known for its spacious layout and wide selection, it includes typical Target amenities like groceries, electronics, and seasonal items, making it popular for families near the New York State Route 31 corridor.

Northeastern Syracuse: Target Cicero
- The Cicero store at 8061 Brewerton Rd, Cicero, NY 13039
- It serves the North Syracuse and Cicero communities. Easily accessible from Route 11, it offers a Starbucks Cafe and is praised for its clean, well-stocked environment—ideal for quick trips or larger hauls.

Eastern Syracuse: Target Fayetteville (near DeWitt)
- Situated at 340 Towne Dr, Fayetteville, NY 13066 (in the town of Manlius)
- This location is convenient for eastern suburbs, including DeWitt and areas near Syracuse University. It provides a full range of Target services and is often noted for its proximity to shopping centers like Towne Center.

   These four stores make Target a staple for Onondaga County residents, offering everything from everyday essentials to trendy home decor at competitive prices. Whether you’re a Syracuse local or just passing through, there’s likely a Target nearby for convenient, one-stop shopping. Hours are generally 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. (or 10 p.m. on some days), but check the Target app or website for the latest details.

Target Stores Just Outside the Greater Syracuse Area

   While the Camillus and Cicero Targets handle most daily needs for the immediate Syracuse/Onondaga County market, four additional full-size Target stores lie within a reasonable 50–75 mile drive in every direction. These locations offer the same modern layout, expanded grocery (including fresh produce, meat, and bakery in most), Starbucks, CVS Pharmacy, Ulta Beauty at Target sections (where available), Drive Up, Order Pickup, and Same Day Delivery. All operate standard hours of 8 a.m. – 10 p.m.daily.

South (Tompkins County)
Ithaca Target
• Address: 40 Catherwood Rd, Ithaca, NY 14850
• Phone: (607) 257-2630
• ~55 miles south via I-81 & Route 13 (~1 hour drive)
• Located in the Tops Plaza / Triphammer Marketplace area near The Shops at Ithaca Mall. Extremely popular with Cornell and Ithaca College students; consistently well-stocked in college essentials, beauty, and home goods. Locals say it’s one of the nicest Targets in Upstate NY.

East (Oneida County)
New Hartford Target
• Address: 4755 Commercial Dr, New Hartford, NY 13413
• Phone: (315) 765-0066
• ~50 miles east via NYS Thruway I-90 (~50–55 minutes)
• Situated in Consumer Square (same plaza as Dick’s, Best Buy, etc.). Serves the entire Utica-Rome metro. Syracuse shoppers often hit this one when the local stores are wiped out of new releases or seasonal items.

North (Jefferson County)
Watertown Target
• Address: 20828 State Route 3, Watertown, NY 13601
• Phone: (315) 786-2510
• ~70 miles north via I-81 (~1 hour 10 minutes)
• Arsenal Street corridor location. Heavily used by Fort Drum families and Thousand Islands tourists. Generally very well maintained with strong grocery and baby sections.

West (Ontario County)
Victor Target
• Address: 7979 Pittsford Victor Rd (Eastview Mall), Victor, NY 14564
• Phone: (585) 425-0800
• ~75 miles west via NYS Thruway I-90 (~1 hour 15 minutes)
• One of the highest-volume Targets in Upstate New York due to its Eastview Mall location. Huge apparel, home, and beauty selections; worth the drive when you’re looking for something specific the smaller stores don’t carry.

   These four stores give Central New York residents solid Target coverage in every direction without having to venture all the way to Rochester, Albany, or Binghamton. Many Syracuse-area regulars will specifically road-trip to Ithaca or New Hartford when they want a “better” Target experience or when the local stores are picked over after a big Bullseye Playground drop or holiday rush.

Target Stores Further Outside the Greater Syracuse Area (70–100 miles)

   Beyond the New Hartford, Ithaca, and Watertown locations, the next wave of Targets enters true “road trip” territory for most Central New Yorkers — typically 70–100 miles away. These stores are worth the drive when you’re after harder-to-find items, larger inventory (especially in apparel, home decor, beauty, or seasonal), or combining with visits to malls, outlets, or family in bigger metro areas. Many are among the highest-volume and best-maintained Targets in upstate New York.

All are standard large-format stores with fresh grocery, pharmacy, Starbucks, CVS, Ulta Beauty at Target (where applicable), Drive Up/Order Pickup, and hours generally 8 a.m.–10 p.m.

Southeast (Southern Tier / Binghamton Area)
Vestal Target
•  Address: 3112 Vestal Pkwy E, Vestal, NY 13850
•  Phone: (607) 729-6611
•  ~70 miles southeast via I-81 S.

   The primary Target for the Binghamton metro and a frequent destination for Syracusans heading south on I-81. Regularly praised for excellent stock, clean layout, and strong college-oriented sections (dorm, tech, apparel). Popular stop en route to Pennsylvania or the Catskills.

West (Finger Lakes / Greater Rochester Area – Closest Entry Point)
Victor Target
•  Address: 7500 Commons Blvd, Victor, NY 14564
•  Phone: (585) 425-0800
•  ~75 miles west via NYS Thruway/I-90. Located in the upscale Eastview Mall corridor, this is widely considered one of the best Targets in all of upstate New York — spacious, beautifully merchandised, and rarely out of stock. Syracuse shoppers often make the pilgrimage here specifically for exclusive brands, large beauty/home sections, or when combining with outlet shopping.

(Other Rochester-area Targets — Henrietta, Greece Ridge, Webster, Irondequoit — are 85–95 miles and easily accessible once you’re this far west.)

North (North Country / Fort Drum)
Evans Mills Target
•  Address: 25737 US Route 11, Evans Mills, NY 13637
•  Phone: (315) 629-2029
•  ~75–80 miles north via I-81 N (just east of Watertown). Serves the Fort Drum military community and Thousand Islands region. Known for practical, high-turnover departments (tools, outdoor, baby/kids, household essentials) and ample parking. A favorite for those traveling to the St. Lawrence River or Canada.

   These three locations effectively form the “outer ring” for practical Target runs from Syracuse. Beyond them, the next clusters are the full Rochester metro (multiple stores, 85+ miles), Amsterdam/Albany approaches (90–140 miles east), or nothing else until Buffalo or downstate. Many CNY residents use the Target app to check stock and justify the drive — Victor and Vestal are the overwhelming favorites when the closer stores (including the three “regional” ones) come up short on popular or limited-release items.
