Caffeine fix

Best coffee spots in Mexico City

Café Avellaneda

Coyoacán's best specialty coffee roaster with beans from Oaxaca, Chiapas, and Veracruz. The pour-overs showcase Mexican coffee at its best. The small space has a neighbourhood feel.

Chiquitito Café

A tiny cafe in Condesa with some of the city's best espresso. The baristas are meticulous and the space is minimal but warm. The cortado is their strongest offering.

Blend Station

A popular Roma Norte cafe with excellent coffee, healthy bowls, and a co-working friendly atmosphere. The cold brew is smooth and the avocado toast uses the world's best avocados (Mexican, obviously).

Café El Jarocho

A Coyoacán institution serving strong, sweet Mexican coffee since 1953. The café de olla (cinnamon-spiced coffee) and the hot chocolate with churros are traditions. Join the queue — it moves fast.

Quentin Café

A French-Mexican bakery-cafe in Polanco with outstanding croissants and strong espresso. The pain au chocolat and the cappuccino make for the perfect European-style breakfast in Mexico City.

Almanegra Café

A specialty roastery in Roma with a modern industrial space. The Mexican single-origin beans are exceptional — the Oaxacan natural process is fruity and complex. Great for coffee education.

Café Nin

A gorgeous Roma cafe with high ceilings, marble tables, and a brunch menu that packs the house on weekends. The pastries are French-quality and the cafe con leche is rich and strong.

Cardinal Casa de Café

A specialty coffee shop in the Centro Histórico inside a beautiful colonial building. The beans are from small Mexican farms and the baristas do excellent manual brewing. The courtyard is peaceful.
