We recommend this place not because of its menu (it's a regular coffee shop) but because of its views (it's located at the top of the Sears building).
After a walk in La Alameda, have a break here and enjoy the amazing views of the Bellas Artes Palace.

One of our favorite spots in Mexico City. Don't pass the chance to enter one of the most beautiful buildings. Since it is still a working post office, you can buy a postal card and send it to your loved ones. It's a great souvenir sending it from such a special place.
