Shelves were empty, they do not sell hot beverages, how can i eat my breakfast pastry with my coffee, that should be illegal. No seating to consume your pastry, that's insane? Why they been around for 90 years and nobody ever thought about these things. Honestly, thats - 2 stars already. Plus food or pastry dont have labels so you have to guest at what you buy unless you find a employer nearby and that was next to impossible. After you selected pastry, you take it to packaging area, then you have to get on another line to pay. Once you oay you present the ticket to the lady that packaged your items and get out. No seating and we had to go find coffee at 8am because they dont sell beverages, dis i say that??

Walk in here will surely amaze you with how many pastries they have…read more The place is huge and packed with customers. Pastries are cheap. Roughly $1US per pastry. It was OK not amazing like some people commented. If you ask me if this is the best bakery in Mexico City then I have to say NO. But it's definitely worth the visit just to smell and look at people who bought tray full of goodies.

But once we were able to identify the line, it literally took only 10 minutes of wait. I got the guava roll, of course, and it did not disappoint. We also got a concha and that was definitely not impressive. The staff are friendly and very patient considering the crowds they deal with. I definitely recommend grabbing a menu while waiting so that you can order immediately once it's your turn. There's also a bathroom on site.

It's one of those rare places that get really hyped up and turn out to actually be worth the hype. We stopped in here on three different occasions during our Mexico City trip, and despite how viral it is there was never a line. The staff was very friendly, prices very reasonable, and order always came out super quick. My favorite things were the rol de guayaba, cafe de olla, and the puerquito de piloncillo. The guava pastry and puerquito were very fresh, soft and not crummy at all. The guava pastry was specifically memorable as it had the most delicious creamy filling in it that tasted like real guava and not overly sweet. The cafe de olla was addicting with the spices being perfectly balanced. It sets the standard for cafe de olla... it's not clear if I'll ever get one as good as the one they make here. This is a must stop during any visit to Mexico City.

This store is located right off the avenida Reforma, which is the avenue that they close down on Sunday for cyclists. They have so many decilious options to choose from, I was completely unsure about what to get. I was undecided about getting the chispas de San Valentin, corazon chispitas, corazon de fresa, and glaseada de fresa, which is strawberry glazed. I really only wanted to get two donuts because I'm trying to maintain control obviously, so my final decision was one glaseada de fresa, and one chispitas de fresa. The coffee was an easy choice, just a regular medium-sized cafe Americano con leche. This particular store is especially comfortable because they they have actual sofas for people to sit! I didn't stay long, and I appreciated the attentiveness of the Staff person who greeted me and took my order.

After reviewing the menu, we decided on the Pork Belly Tacos and Ham Croquettes, both were good but nothing to write home about. We were a little disappointed with the experience overall but cannot comment on main dishes as we didn't get that far and we spent a pretty penny.

I return to this area often. I find a restaurant that I think is the best yet, promise to return but then I walk into another place. That was the case with Catamundi. Had two friends with me and we found this upscale endeavor inviting. Five stars to the ambience, to the wait staff, to the cooks. I had a braised beef. Meat came on a bed of mashed potatoes. Rich sauce, beef was extraordinary. Just well made with love and obligation to serve nothing but the best. We asked for guacamole that came seasoned with, among other things, sunflower seeds. Guacamole was five stars.

When you walk in grab a tray at the entrance then walk around putting in the tray whatever delicacy you dare indulge in. We had the cheesecake and chocolate cake. My fav was the chocolate cake, which is odd as I prefer vanilla. It was moist and the sweetness was just right, not overpowering. The cheesecake was more of a pound cake with cheese flavor. It was unexpected but still very good. Once you're ready go to the first set of registers where they tell you how much everything is then you go to a second register where you pay. Not woot of seating area but you can take it to go, walk around Zocalo while you stuff your face. Lugar perfecto para postre después de cenar en Azul. Se puede oler el pan fresco caminando por la calle y todos los empleados son muy amables. Cuando entras agarra una bandeja en la entrada donde pondrás los postres/panes que quieras. Teníamos la tarta de queso y tarta de chocolate . Mi favorito era el pastel de chocolate. Era mojaito y la dulzura era justo. El queso era más bien un bizcocho con sabor a queso . Fue inesperado pero muy bueno . Una vez que esté listo vaya a la primera serie de registros donde te dicen cuánto debes pagar. Hay un segundo registro en las que paga . No tienen mucho asiento , pero se puede tomar para llevar , y caminar alrededor del Zócalo mientras come.

The original location looks a lot prettier and bigger. Luckily we were able to get a seat alongside of the bar, but it was relatively packed. The guava pastry was so delicious! I usually don't like fillings in my pastries, but this was the perfect amount. The pastry itself was very flakey and buttery. Nothing to write home about the mocha, however. I definitely would want to check out the main location, but this location had some cute shops nearby to check out as well!
