👍👍 Pleasant spot to sit back, relax, and grab a coffee with a nice pastry. They have fast WiFi as well which allowed me to sit down and plan out the rest of my day. Prices are reasonable and the chocolate croissant was tasty. Would highly recommend if you’re in the area and looking for a pick me up. People often mention coffee, good, great, para, service, work, nice, buen, latte, super,

    Scrumptious coffee. I have visited many times and tried different coffee methods and milk coffees, and I am pleased every time. The baristas really know what they are doing. Their chocolate chip cookie, Nutella cookie, and orange cake are delicious as well.

    I ordered a matcha latte and while it was strong the way I liked it, it was difficult to work from the cafe as the internet was very slow. Great place for drinks but maybe not so much for work.

    Not very good service provided to local people, which is unfortunate because the coffee isn’t bad. We waited over 15 minutes to get our order and it was the wrong one. I had to get it myself from the counter as the cashier seemed overwhelmed even though there was no line. It upset me to see that customers who ordered after us got theirs first. When we were done eating, service was fast to clean up, and since we didn’t leave immediately they offered us water. This act of service is the only reason I gave Cardinal Casa de Café two stars. I do not recommend this place. It seems to be there for foreigners only. Such a sad face of gentrification in Colonia Roma.

    Very nice lattes. Cozy inside and nice outside seating too ☺️

  • 5/5 Masher A. 5 years ago on Google
    Great coffee, great little place! Basically you need to go! They have a good variety of brewing methods, so you can choose the one of your preference. The staff boys do a great job, they're there always to explain and recommend the best options for you... I think I saw one of them make latte art, so it's cool too. Plus, despite being a little and simple place, it has a charm and cosy atmosphere perfect wether if you go alone or with someone. So.. it must be a "must" in every visit to Colonia Roma.

    This is a cool little coffee shop. It has a really chill atmosphere, and they serve high quality coffee grown in Mexico, well roasted, and excellently brewed. The price is great too. I had two pour overs, a v60 and kalita wave, and still paid less than 100 pesos! It's a good place to do a little work outside the office or catch up with a friend.

    Super chill spot in Roma Norte. Had a great Carmel latte to go as we wondered around. Staff was super friendly. I’d go back.

    Fabulous coffee with extensive options and delicious pastries to enjoy with it. Highly recommended!

  • 5/5 Carolina H. 4 months ago on Google • 46 reviews
    Lovely and delicious speciality coffee! Many times, I have tried it and always enjoyed it. Service is so friendly and professional. Flat white is one of the best, also double espresso! Last time I tried for the first time a "dulce de leche" cookie... wow, so delicious!! It was soft, and I wanted more! If you're looking for a high-quality coffee shop, try Cardinal☕️

    I had a sandwich and americano with soy milk. I love that the my offered to warm up my milk ( a pet peeve for me when I travel to the US since they just glug- glug it from a gallon bottle). The staff was super courteous and friendly, the americano was a bit on a light side but the sandwich was very good . There are plenty of outlets to charge devices , good tables to work , and relatively quiet because the place is located in a side street not in a main avenue ( Alvaro Obregón).

  • 5/5 Janelle Z. 2 years ago on Google
    Great latte and pastries. We will be coming here for breakfast our whole trip

  • 4/5 Irving 3 years ago on Google
    A cool coffee shop in Roma Sur, perfect to sit and read or to work for hours. The coffee is great and the service is nice. The pastries are decent but the food (mostly sandwiches) could be better.

  • 5/5 Paul J Smith O. 2 years ago on Google
    Had an exceptional latte here. Ambiance is hip

  • 5/5 Daniel C. 2 years ago on Google
    A solidly good cup of coffee. Small place, good for a quick meet up, though not the most ideal for working on your laptop or reading while sipping coffee because (1) outlets are minimal and (2) seats are not the most comfortable. Best for a quick chat over coffee or if you just want a small seat to yourself.

  • 5/5 Tina B. 2 years ago on Google
    I’ve had a lot of coffee around the world and I just say, this was one of the best pour over coffee I’ve ever had (ordered kalita wave) with a bit of soy milk. So tasty- the notes perfectly balanced.

  • 5/5 Natalie Y. 2 years ago on Google
    Top notch flat white and the staff are all so lovely. My favourite cafe in DF.

  • 5/5 David S. 2 years ago on Google
    Most awesome coffee ever!!! It’s probably Mexican beans, a little on the volcanic side, if you don’t mind it it’s as good as it gets. Oh and they know latte art.

  • 5/5 andrew l. 2 years ago on Google
    Home away from home. Been here 7 days out of my 10 day stay. The coffee is fresh, light/medium single origins from Mexico, well brewed and consistent. The baristas are incredibly skilled and very tolerant of foreigners who don't speak a lot of Spanish. We've really enjoyed our time here and would recommend everyone to stop bye.

  • 2/5 Sarah K. 11 months ago on Google
    Nice place however I feel like they take advantage of tourists. I was charged for more than I ordered (180$ instead of 150$) and when I said I wanted to give a 10% tip, I saw the waiter calculating a 15% tip. It's a shame, especially because this café was really nice.

    Wooden tables with assorted chairs, walk up coffee bar, antique decorations, hand crafted coffee, free WiFi, dogs welcome. This quiet little corner is perfect for your morning espresso or a few moments to relax in the afternoon. I enjoyed watching people come and go as I answered emails and planned my afternoon all while sipping a cute little cappuccino.

    I enjoyed an iced latte and one of the best cinnamon buns i’ve ever had! this one was topped with a thin layer of frosting and toasted coconut, they warmed it up slightly and it was perfection. I would come back just for the bun 🥰 it was too good i took a bite then a pic
