The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is I feel some of the staff could improve their attention. There were a couple barista girls that although very friendly got two of my orders wrong in a row which I didn't mind the first time but once again right after was like if they had completely ignored what I wanted even though clearly asked in Spanish. I recommend the spot though, one of the best cafes in this area.

My friend and I were on a community bike ride on Reforma Avenue, and we decided to take a break and…read morestop here for lunch. The place seemed fairly busy, bit it was no problem at all getting a table. Thankfully they had a menu in English, which helped us decide on something that we were a little bit familiar with. I ordered two breaded tacos with cheese which came with guacamole sauce and onions. As usual I pushed the onions to the side. My friend got four chicken flautas with green sauce, and it looked so delicious. I was a little envious for those flautas, and I kind-of had remorse for what I ordered. My two tacos were good, bit not as good as the flautas. I also ordered an orange drink called maranjada, and she got a freshly squeezed lemonade. All-in-all we had a fine lunch here.

This place really specializes in selling all different types of coffee beans and coffee grounds…read more The way that the store is set-up is quite fascinating. There are no tables or chairs oersay, however they have three park benches placed outside of the restaurant for people to sit. They also do sell coffee and cappuccino at extremely low prices. For examen, a small cafe Americano costs $25 pesos. The cappuccino that I ordered cost $30 pesos which is a price that you would not be able to find anywhere. I wasn't a big fan of their payment system, and I was asked to wait several minutes for the one special employee to charge me. The other employee who prepared my capppuccinokmv knew what he was doing.

The owner was still with us in those years and he would make his special coffees in the morning and then roast in the afternoon. Such a nice person.

Highly highly recommended.

This feels like a local spot for breakfast but it was quite packed on a Saturday morning with a…read moresteady stream of patrons. We didn't have to wait at all and were promptly seated. Looking around, its a casual spot that feels well loved. Photos of babies and other personal touches, along with just a large collection of coffee roasting/grinding machines lined the walls. We were provided menus and our waiter didn't speak English but we still got by with our minimal Spanish. I didn't pick up any hints of disdain for our lack of local language/customs. I ordered the special coffee and the chilaquiles with green salsa and chicharron de la ramos. The coffee was really good, smooth, rich, and no need to add sugar to fight any hints of bitterness. The chilaquiles were also amazing, the salsa verde was pleasantly spicy and the chicharron was so light and crisp. It made for a wonderful start to my morning and it was a large portion (I couldn't finish and got the rest to go). Paying was also easy, they accept card so just tap and go essentially. Highly recommend this spot as a great loal breakfast stop. Seemed to be a local favorite and didn't spot any other obvious tourists while we were here. Food was spectacular and prices were great for the amount of food we have.

Found this coffee roaster close to my hotel. They only sell coffee beans or ground coffee, if you…read morewant a cup of coffee they have a coffee stand a few shops down the street. They have different types of beans, all Mexican origin. They didn't speak much English so I couldn't get any recommendations. I used Google Translate but that made it more confusing. As it said coffee with sugar or coffee without sugar. I'm guessing it's the type of beans you'd buy if you drink your coffee that way. On the bottom was single origin coffee which was what I was looking for. I took a pic and asked a barista at another coffee shop which coffee she preferred. I ended up getting a kilo of Pulma Hildago and Cordoba. They were both medium roast. I'm drinking the Pulma Hidalgo it's slightly sweet and has mild citrus notes. I really like it. After doing more research they also have Marago beans. I wish I had done my research at the time because Marago beans are quite rare. They are taller trees so they are harder to pick and they also give less beans so farmers don't usually plant them. They are also the largest coffee beans, called elephant beans. I don't know if they taste good but I wish I tried it. I like this place, lots of Mexican single origin beans and even some rare varietals.

I wasn't sure exactly what to get and Juan, one of the guys who works here, recommended Planchuela, and Caracolillo which is regionally grown in Chiapas. I bought a kilo of each type. This is not a restaurant or cafe mind you, they strictly sell regional coffee beans that are prepared and roasted. Think of it as a deli that sells just coffee. Juan told me that they have over thirty different types of coffee beans that we're grown all over Mexico. You would be very hard pressed to find any place like this outside of Mexico. What a great find!
