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.

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.

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??

They…read moredon't have a huge selection of pastry and cake selection here, but rather some carefully selected pastries that have been crafted into something special. I saw a lot of wonderful arrangements that were put together for the holidays. Finding this panadería came as sheer luck, because it reminded me about the fact that I needed to purchase some gifts for co-workers. I found two gift creations that were not that expensive and I went ahead and purchased those. They also sell a limited amount of regular pastries to take home, but I figured it was a little late in the evening to think about getting these for the house. Another thing to note that this panadería isn't set-up as a cafe so there are no real seating options.

You get to select all your pastries and put them on a tray which is dangerously delicious idea. They have a little bit of seating and also offered premade sandwiches and full cakes. **Update** We went back the next morning with four friends for more pastries and coffee and we were incorrectly charged. Bought 1 yogurt and was charged for 2. Got two americanos and one with a splash of milk and was charged for two lattes with lactose free milk. Tried to argue the charge for lattes with the woman who worked there and she said it was two americanos and that the charge was correct. Didn't see the two yogurt charge until I got home. Would be wary if you're a tourist or don't speak Spanish. May be taken advantage of.

I wasn't exactly in the mood for a large breakfast, because I have plans later with someone for the Chinese buffet. I got just two pastries, one concha rellana, and one taco de cajeta. I have had conchas a thousand times before, but this one actually had a filling, and it was quite delicious. The service here this morning was a little dissappointing. There were two young employees, male and female, working behind the counter and neither of them seemed interested in helping me. The female was glued to her cellphone, and the male didn't want to move at all. I had to ask him three times if he could come over and help me. I realize that they are both young, but I would think that this place would be better served with more motivated employees, who actually care about helping customers.

Even though I didn't really need the extra caffeine in the early evening, I still wanted to try it. This cafe seemed like it had a cool vibe so I came to check it out. I noticed something similar to a cinamon bun called the Rol de queso con Zarzanora. It wasn't exactly the same size as a cinamon bun, it was a little smaller but it actually tasted richer. The capuchino with vanilla flavoring was even better. There are plenty of tables and chairs outside, and that's where I pretty much stayed during my time at the cafe. This is a nice quiet spot!

I don't mind all their pastries that don't require refrigeration being left out in the open, but at least cover them to keep the bugs off of them. But just when I thought it was only the open air pastries that were getting swarmed by bees, I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the little fruit flies swarming inside the fridge. Normally, I would come here for a cheap sandwich, believe it or not, and grab a pastry while I was at it, but the quality of everything seems to have gone into decline, except the service, which has always been friendly and attentive.
