...depending on how you ended your night!
As one of the most culturally-rich and cosmopolitan cities in the world, Mexico City naturally requires lots of coffee to fuel early mornings and late nights. So, here are the best cafés to start your day in this gorgeous, historical, gardenia-scented city depending on how the night before went.
Girls Night Out
Mexico City is affordable and full of chic apartments to stay in, making it perfect for a week-long trip with your besties. Chiquito Cafe has incredible coffee and pastries, and it’s perfect for those messy-staged-cafe table pictures that will look great in your girls’ trip Instagram post.
Date Night
Mexico City never sleeps, so after a whirlwind night of romance, it’s nice to spend a quiet morning away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Efimero Barra de Cafe fits the bill. Tucked away from the main streets with plenty of outdoor seating, it’s a lovely place to spend the morning after journaling with a latte and a croissant.
Wedding
If you’ve ever been to a wedding in Mexico, you know it’s an all-night affair. Like, all night and into the morning. Assuming you’re coming straight from the wedding in those slippers they provide for all night dancing and bottle service, Cafe de Tacuba – which has been around for centuries – is a classic place to “end” your night.
Solo-Date
Whether you came to Mexico City alone or you just needed some time to yourself, you won’t feel lonely in this busy cafe located on a rooftop across from the iconic Palacio de Bellas Artes. Keep the good vibes going and take yourself out to the museum after pastries and coffee. The Finca Don Porfirio is up the elevator through a Sears on the bottom floor, but once you get off the elevator you will be in a rooftop paradise!
Late Night Working
Now one for all the digital nomads, this coffee shop is perfect for changing up your scenery from working late the night before if you still have things to check off your to-do list. With lots of natural light and plenty of outlets, Blend Station is an ideal spot to settle in for some deep work. It’s located in the trendy and beautiful La Condesa neighborhood, which is popular with expats and remote workers.
