After finding out that the best coffee shop in Condessa had closed and moved to a location in North Roma that didn't have as an ideal place to sit with a laptop, I began researching for all the digital nomad recommended coffee shops in Mexico City. I had found this one to be the most recommended. It's okay for breakfast and general food here, or at least my husband enjoyed his acai bowl and I was pleased with my Turkish eggs mix. We were honestly disappointed with the coffee for both the flavor and temperature. My husband drip "coffee Americano" was only just a tad above lukewarm even after we requested if it could be heated up. Asides this, the service was good, and they have plenty of staff. The space is great, not as big as the pictures might have you believe, but still has enough places to sit. The only problem that I noticed with where you may sit to plug in were the outlets have some wear and tear and when I plugged in my adapter it wouldn't stay. I wouldn't recommend here during the cooler winter months since there isn't central heating, and fresh cool air from outside travels in, as in most places in Mexico. I'm sure this place is ideal during the summer months.
Great coffee. Lots of options in the way it's brewed. Cappuccino was creamy, buttery, a bit smoky, a bit fruity (cherry/prune?) def good quality. My boyfriend got the Jamaica, lavender, pineapple... etc tea. They recommended it iced, which makes sense for Jamaica but the ice melted so fast it lost lots of flavor so that is the reason for 4 stars. Great workspace or quiet place to chat. Indoor and outdoor seating. Calm neighborhood.
This place was on my list for coffee spots to try in CDMX. One of the only places on my list that had a flavored latte so I was excited (I'm not a serious coffee drinker so I only drink lattes). Black vanilla cardamom latte (85 mxn) - super smooth with a hint of sweetness. The vanilla and cardamom flavors definitely came through. One of my favorite lattes I've had here.
Want to find a hip gentrified coffee shop to do your fully remote tech job to while being surrounded by HP toting startup bros while listening to beach house? This is the place. Great internet, excellent food and drinks, can order fully in English. If you are looking to not engage with local culture and stay in your comfort bubble (sometimes nice let's be honest) this is the place. Clean friendly tasty.
Awesome ambiance and super friendly servers. We came back twice because we enjoyed the coffee and they have wonderful breakfast. The portions are rather big and our favourite was the avocado toast! Many people working on their laptops here, but the vibes were good. Honestly a much needed break from tacos!
The food was delicious!! I got the green omelette and my boyfriend and I split the avocado toast. So yummy. It was a bit cold and I wasn't impressed by the interior, but the food was DEFINITELY worth it. I also got an espresso with coconut milk and didn't love it. I think they use powdered coconut milk.
Loved this spot! Great spot for grabbing a quick drink/bite and also for working. Lots of open space and seating with WiFi/outlets. The pinky chai is okay. Wasn't my favorite but they have a lot of options so would have to try the other drinks. I forgot what I ordered to eat but if you ask for the vegetarian options, they have MANY dishes which was a great treat. And my dish was amazing, truly one of my favorite meals of my trip to my surprise. Definitely recommend coming here for a breakfast or a stop over.
The Frenchy Toast is to die for. I normal soak my french toast/pancakes in syrup, but didn't need to for this. The sweet butter it comes with is delicious--same with the cream. Must-try. Any Blend Station location is a great place to work remotely. They have very easy wifi, electric outlets indoors, and plenty of work room if you don't mind basic coffee shop chit chat around you. Service is great but will also leave you alone when they see you working. Definitely recommend this location and the Roma Norte location (that one is a little bigger, I think, and a little more aesthetic).

Pretty decent coffee overall. The iced drinks were a bit weaker, and the chai leaned light on spice. For lattes and cappuccinos, the milk flavor came through stronger than expected, though that might be personal preference. They do have cute cups, and compared to other coffee spots in Mexico, this one is pretty decent. The ambiance is cute and it's a good place to work remotely. Service: Friendly and relaxed Food/Drinks: Decent coffee, weaker iced drinks, mild chai, milk-forward lattes Ambiance: Cute, comfortable, and WFH-friendly 7/10 A solid cafe with a nice space to work, even if the drinks aren't standout read more
Blend Station was awesome for breakfast! It wasn't super busy when we stopped in. Their food menu was displayed on the wall, with photos of each item, which was super helpful. I got an Iced Vanilla Latte and the Classic Chicken Sandwich, and my boyfriend chose a hot coffee and one of their many variations of Avocado Toast. The space was cute and inviting, with a large tree right in the middle of the dining area. The vibe was tranquil, and I loved their custom cups/mugs with little eyeballs on them. Service wasn't the quickest, which was fine since we weren't in a rush. Both our coffee drinks were tasty, and the food was delicious. Portion sizes were very generous! The avocado in my Chicken Sandwich tasted fresh, and all the ingredients went together well. Would return to try their French Toast, which looked out of this world! read more
We went to the Roma Norte location and it was great for breakfast and brunch foods. A good place also to do some work as there are outlets and WiFi available. The portions are pretty big too so could share also. I got the San Patricio Omelette was it was made well and had a lot of veggies without being soggy. The service was friendly and the vibe was nice and clean. read more

I have been here multiple times because it is close to my place, and they have good coffee, strong wifi (not strong enough for video call) and delicious pastry. Good set up and bathrooms are clean. No need to wait in line read more

In search of Avacado toast, I found it after 1pm, which can sometimes be tricky in CDMX. It wasn't too busy in the afternoon and they easily detected our broken Spanish and talked to us in English--which is always comforting and makes one feeling less of a dork. But you should learn Spanish anyway. Yes you. Hubby found a wonderful chicken, veggie quinoa bowl. read more
This place is great if you want a strong cup of coffee. I got the flat white and it sure packed a punch! I loved it. Great place with cute branding too. They have tea drinks if you aren't a coffee lover like me. There are various locations throughout the Roma and La Condessa districts so that even if you weren't looking for it, you will probably walk by one just walking around the beautiful neighborhoods. read more

3.5 stars. I came here with a few friends (and joined the other ex-pats) to get work done at Blend Station. A bunch of people were already strewn across the outdoor patio, staring at their laptop screens in the glaring sun. At some point I closed mine because the sun was heating up my devices, and all the spaces indoors and in the shade were taken at the time. It was my friends who ordered coffee so I can't speak to that experience, but I'm obsessed with the cute to-go cups that day, featuring an alien. For some reason that was the most memorable part. Also from what I see in photos, I wish I was hungry enough for their pastries! City WiFi was unreliable at times, so I'd encourage you to come here and just relax. Have a conversation. read more

Great coffee, part of the service not so hot. Most of the staff seemed nice. If it was just for coffee I would totally come here for coffee again and again and again plus I would recommend it to my friends. However, the Red Hat Barista thought that flipping me his middle finger was a nice and fun thing to do, just for taking a picture of the cold brewing contraption and the coffee bar to post on social networks. Now I would never go back or recommend the place to anyone. And Since, he thought that flipping the middle finger to the customers is a good practice. Here is the picture. read more
Tried the guanábana smoothie -- it was fresh and had the perfect level of sweetness. The only reason I give a 4/5 is because it definitely needed a little more of the guanábana taste. The service was 5/5 -- everyone is very nice and approachable. The location seems to be a great spot to touch up with friends or get some work done. read more
We went for breakfast on Friday morning. Loved the outside seating. I like caramel flavoured lattes but they didn't have. Only vanilla. Also everywhere in Mexico I'm seeing not much use of fat free milk. So I had to opt for almond milk. Cappuccino with almond milk was okay. Espresso shot was very good. Avocado toast was very good. Egg Benedict wasn't good. That's why taking out one star. It was very bland and too much meat. The English muffins were too big too. Hollandaise sauce wasn't that tasty. read more
My boyfriend and I were staying in the Condesa neighborhood during our recent trip to CDMX, and he found this place online and liked it so much on his first visit that we came back almost every morning for the rest of the trip. We were surprised to find such a legit coffee place with such a wide variety of beans and brewing methods (some of which I'd never even heard of before). My cappucino and matcha latte were just okay, and lacking in latte art presumably because it's hard to make art with almond milk, but my boyfriend's coffees were all delicious. He got a V60 with a bean roasted in a barrel of whiskey which was unique, velvety smooth, and scrumptious. The food is all fresh and delicious. The toasts are a great value. I've had better acai bowls elsewhere though (theirs was a bit tasteless in comparison to places like Ojo de Agua). My boyfriend went a little overboard and purchased a few of their handmade coffee mugs and several bags of coffee. The interiors are modern and comfortable - maybe a bit too much so, so that people love to camp out here all day and work on their laptops. The baristas are also super friendly, knowledgeable, and willing to share their love and knowledge of coffee. They aren't fluent in English but speak it well enough for all intents and purposes. On our last day one of the baristas even gifted us a couple stickers! read more
The Blend Station is the perfect place to grab a coffee and some breakfast/brunch at! We ordered a classic Americano, which was standard and a latte, which was delicious and creamy. For food, we tried the chicken and veggies bowl as well as the blend salad with chicken. The freshness of all the ingredients really surprised us and the chicken was juicy and seasoned! Great quality food in a great atmosphere that's perfect for groups. The service was also friendly and quick. read more
We got the avocado toast and eggs benedict and they were both good and set us up for a full day of museum visits. Cappuccino was great too. They also have wifi and we somewhat caught up on the football world cup while we enjoyed our meal. Pretty hip interior with high ceilings and lots of seating. Staff checked in on us often. read more
love this place. Great coffee, friendly staff, nice atmosphere. The flat white is a drink that's actually hard to get done properly. The temperature and milk froth are often the parts that go wrong. This place has it dialed in! Temperature was on point and the milk was frothed to perfectly velvety texture. The flavor of the beans also made for a really nice, complex, slightly fruity flavor. Highly recommend read more
Love this place. Good internet, enough work station, extension cords for outside tables, and of course great coffee. One of my favorite places to have my daily cappuccino:) i have also been pleasantly surprised by the quality of food there. Have tried the chicken bowl, chicken waffles, and a few pastries. read more
It's comforting to know that the caffeine kingdom is alive and well and living in Condesa. The coffee and espresso here rival any in the world, from Roma (not this Roma, that Roma) to Seattle, the baristas at Blend Station can hold their own. Whether it's the gauge of the grind, the water temp, the extraction time or all three you must have perfect in your head, the self-proclaimed coffee geeks behind the counter have you covered. The ambience is hipper than an Apple Store with Condesa's coolest professionals all tapping away on their laptops while sipping cappuccinos after 11am (does anybody follow that rule anymore?). The pour-overs pack a punch and are offered in a variety of in-house blends no matter your preferred palate. But be advised, their cold brew will kick you in the face like a bag of coca leaves. read more

I was in absolute hipster heaven from the moment I stepped foot into this amazing coffee shop. I wish I could say I was exaggerating, but my little Seattle heart was so happy, words cannot describe. ... but I'll try ;-) The coffee here was delicious! I opted for a soy mocha and one of their delicious berry croissants. I was bummed that I'd had brunch just before coming here, because their food items looked absolutely delicious, and I was tempted every time the baristas came out with beautiful dishes of food! I think the absolute win for me here was the ambiance and setup of the coffee shop. As others have mentioned, it doesn't seem like this coffee shop is very big, but then you walk further in the building and see that there's an awesome tree in the middle of the cafe and great natural lighting that makes for a really productive workspace! It wasn't too quiet, there were folks chatting over meals/drinks, folks working hard, and some just hanging out. The service here was also very attentive and friendly! Overall, if you're looking for a neat place to get some work done with great coffee and food while in CDMX, I definitely recommend Blend Station. I feel like I could've spent hours in here! read more
I love walking around the city and find places to rest and have a recharge. Blend Station got a good relaxing vibe and delicious menu. I am not ready for a meal yet so a delicious latte will do for now. I sure will return to you if I find myself around your area. Gracias. read more

Wanted to try a different coffee shop. Came across Blend Station was greeted by a young man with blonde hair. He has exceptional customer service, to which he explained the different drinks. I ordered 4 shots of espresso over ice with some oat milk. The Frappe's are good too. The coffee was so delicious very smooth. read more

Really delicious coffee (and food!!) with an amazing interior space. It doesn't look like much from the outside but it opens up into this incredible space with natural light! There are many English speaking staff which can be helpful too. My only gripe is that it's freelancer central. If you don't come before 9, forget getting a seat as its already filled with laptops. However, it's always a good option para llevar. read more
