    Not much to eat, actually, but it's all about the coffee here. Coffee lovers should enjoy their traditional beverage and the fact that this place has been around for so long it's just adding to the place's mood. It isn't fancy, but you can get the vibe this is a long run traditional family business and it's quite enough to enjoy a cup and a reading session or a long conversation with a friend, specially on rainy days.

    (Translated by Google) It was my favorite place, frappe chai is great, until one day I went and a guy saw my tattoos, apart from that he saw me ugly, very sharp he told me that he had no frapes and turned his back on me. I felt discriminated against, it hurts that the lady who attends is very nice and kind, but for that reason I stopped frequenting that place. (Original) Era mi lugar favorito, el frappe chai es genial, hasta que un día fui y un tipo vio mis tatuajes, a parte de que me vio feo, muy tajante me dijo que no tenía frapes y me dio la espalda.

  • 5/5 Ximena Montes de O. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) This cafeteria is undoubtedly one of the most recommended in the historic center of Mexico City. Since you enter it seems that you will be transporting in time, there is a huge and beautiful machine for roasting coffee at the entrance, and although it seems that it is no longer in use, it makes you imagine that at some point it was and that the aroma that gave off It was second to none. It barely has about six tables, which makes it cozy and personalized attention, especially since the owner attends to you, who is seen to love what she does, is very attentive and is always willing to make recommendations on what she has on the menu . Coffee, no matter which one you order, is always delicious. I recommend trying the corn bread is always fresh and ready. Prices are very affordable. (Original) Esta cafetería sin duda es una de las más recomendables del centro histórico de la Ciudad de México. Desde que entras parece que tevtransportaras en el tiempo, hay una enorme y hermosa maquina para tostar café en la entrada, y que aunque parece que ya no está en uso, te hace imaginar que en algún momento lo estuvo y que seguro el aroma que despedía era inigualable. Apenas tiene unas seis mesas, lo que la hace acogedora y de atención personalizada, sobre todo porque te atiende la dueña, quien se ve que ama lo que hace, es muy atenta y siempre está dispuesta a hacer recomendaciones sobre lo que tiene en el menú. El café, sin importar cuál pidas siempre es delicioso. Recomiendo probar el pan de elote siempre está fresco y en su punto. Los precios son muy accesibles.

    (Translated by Google) Very good coffee and good security in this square (Original) Muy buen café y buena seguridad en esta plaza

  • 4/5 EL Tragón R. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It is one of the oldest cafes in the historic center, its decoration and wear from years confirm this feeling when you walk.  If you love photography and do come to the center looking for targets, cameras and accessories, you have surely caught your attention because of the contrast it has with other businesses Donceles Street. Many, including Ms. Tragón Ramirez, how delicious it is their pay of jujube and so good, it's definitely a must-see this place has a delightful mix of textures that makes it irresistible to the palate speak. Another delight about this place are their wedding fingers. I've tried other Lebanese restaurants and small are almost always very sweet and coverage hits you in the teeth. The ones here are very long, almost like a flag and sweet needed to accompany that with a double expresso. Coffee here serve, has a large presence of acidity and earthy, reminds me of the taste of the prepared coffees in places like coffee Havana, Emir, Grand Prix., Old cafes and / or classic seeking cafes with character and unsophisticated. Wednesday the owner of the place prepares homemade Lebanese food so the menu is rice noodles, meat and pasta, accompanied by Arabic bread and buttermilk. I think if you want to start testing this type of food and go slowly preparing your taste buds to the flavors of the Middle East this place is a great option. The place is small and Wednesdays you get there early to reach the menu, as it has a great success and a pair of standing ovations arrives at 3:30 no longer had. (Original) Es uno de los cafés más viejos del centro histórico, su decoración y desgaste producido por los años confirman esta sensación cuando entras. Si eres un amante de la fotografía y haz ido al centro en busca de objetivos, cámaras o accesorios, seguramente te ha llamado la atención por el contraste que tiene con el resto de los negocios de la calle de Donceles. Muchos, incluida la Sra Tragón Ramírez, hablan de lo delicioso que es su pay de dátil y bueno es así, sin duda es un imperdible de este lugar, tiene una deliciosa mezcla de texturas que lo hace irresistible al paladar. Otra de las delicias que tiene este lugar son sus dedos de novia. Yo los he probado en otros restaurantes libaneses y casi siempre son pequeños muy dulces y la cobertura se te pega en las muelas. Los de aquí son muy largos, casi como una banderilla y con el dulce necesario para que los acompañes con un expresso doble. El café que aquí sirven, tiene una gran presencia de acidez y es terroso, me recuerda el sabor de los cafés preparados en lugares como el café La habana, Emir, Gran Premio., cafes viejos y/o clásicos que buscaban cafés con mucho carácter y poco complejos. Los miércoles la dueña del lugar prepara comida libanesa muy casera el menú es arroz con fideo, carne y pasta, acompañado por pan Arabe y jocoque. Creo que si quieres empezar a probar este tipo de comida e ir preparando poco a poco tu paladar para los sabores de Medio Oriente este lugar es una gran opción. El lugar es chico y los miércoles hay que llegar temprano para alcanzar el menú, ya que tiene un gran éxito y en un par de ovaciones que llegue a las 3:30 ya no había.
