Café Hopping in Mexico's trendiest neighborhood | Roma Norte, Mexico City

- čas přidán 5. 08. 2024
- Mexico's trendiest neighborhood is Roma Norte in Mexico City, and that means it has an amazing café culture.
Coffee in Mexico is something that's been growing and we're all for it.
Colonia Roma in Mexico City is at the forefront for appreciation, snobbery, and mastery of coffee in Mexico.
The coolest thing that we've noticed about café culture in Mexico is that it's taken charge of appreciating the very coffee that's produced in the country. Specifically in regions like Chiapas, Oaxaca, and Veracruz.
Come with us as we explore just some of the best coffee spots in Mexico City.

Honestly I love the roma norte tours especially, coffeeshops, bookstores, etc.

We don't get tired of it either. More Roma, coming up!
Absolutely love your videos, you guys have such a pleasant vibe! I'll be visiting CDMX for the first time in January and can't wait to hit up some of these spots.
I am coffee lover too but with two coffees I usually can't sleep early and every time I have time to watch your videos is usually at night I craving a coffee just watching what you are showing! :( , I miss the great pastry that CDMX has, is just AMAZING!, COFFEE & Pan dulce make me HAPPY!!
Aww:( haha I hope you had a good cup of coffee this morning!
@@sergtana Always! :)

Noted. Thank you!
You guys are my favorite explorer couple lol!! Am from New York and every time I visit I follow your recommendations! Although one thing I have noticed is every CZcamsr does Mexican street food and honestly although I love street food I also really enjoy fine dining restaurants & I wish there were more videos of that in general especially since Mexico City has so many great restaurants. Would be awesome if you guys can do some videos of fine dining restaurants :) thank you and keep up the amazing videos!!
Awesome! Thank you! We will try to find some find dining that have vegan options! Have you seen our fine dining experience in Xochimilco?? czcams.com/video/PzRxTlp1nfo/video.html
Great video! It was cute to see Winnie make a friend at the park, especially after sharing the stories of dogs attacking her. CDMX looks so interesting and cool. I love how you promote a vegan lifestyle by example. Thanks for sharing! 🥳🥰❤️🇲🇽
Yaaaaaay~ Your Condesa cafe video was literally the video that brought me to your channel (I had searched for "cafe hopping Mexico), so I'm glad to see the coffee series continue :) Can you take us to a coffee farm or a roaster one day?? I also think it would be interesting if you all interviewed other local expats so we can get a peek into what life is like for them. Have folks started businesses down there? What's it like to send you kids to school in Mexico? How is it living in Mexico if you have recurring health issues? Etc...
Thank you so much for your comment! I would love to visit a farm when we go to Chiapas maybe. Your ideas are actually videos we have planned for the short-term future so be on the lookout!
Can't wait! 😆
some pharmacy chain franchises have a doctor's office, it's good for an emergency. They only charge you .50 dlrs.
I would love to see a video about the best outdoor spaces/parks around Mexico City. ¡Gracias!
Loved this ❤️☕️
Loved this video!
Thanks for sharing this video. Those cafes were super amazing. Such a cool vibe!
Aww thank you very much!
I would like to see some videos about some more technical details about living in Mexico. For example, about getting the most convenient cellular sim or opening mexican bank account/exchanging and sending $$. For americans it might be not a big deal, but me, moving from east EU, probably even withdrawing $$ will be a big headache. Also, would be interested about some tips on ordering food online, discount shopping, getting organic produce, how shipping works, tips for renting apartment safely and more pragmatic types of videos. Because eventually, the type of videos with good picture might intrigue people to go to Mexico, but these types of videos won't be really helpful for them once they visit Mexico by themselves.
Great points! Our ultimate guide to moving to Mexico will be coming very soon 🇲🇽😊
@@sergtana can’t wait. Going from east EU to Mexico city solo this month. Hopefully for the winter. Take my compliments but your videos were very inspiring for me in case of making this decision cuz initially I was about to go to “safe” Argentina but eventually have seen how interesting and rich Mexican culture is.
Loving your videos! It makes me want to move to Mexico 🇲🇽 Thank you for showing us the cool coffee shops in Condesa & Roma. I loved your recipe vlog.
Thank you!
well, I suggest you visit some art galleries in MExico City, those places are full of culture , remember that Mexico City is one of the cities with most museums worldwide!
Incredible audio quality! Great sound isolation considering you’re in an outdoor environment. Keep up the great work 😊
Thank you very much!
We are living on Colima right now and it’s the best!! So many amazing spots to walk to and so many great vegan spots too - gracias madre, querida simona, forever, etc etc etc. So fun seeing this video and excited to check out some of your recommendations! 😊
Such a great spot! So glad you're enjoying it.
I love the coffee shops. I am always checking out coffee. I also love the often unique cups, carafes, and coffee accessories the different shops carry. I'm loving the organic and vegan/vegetarian shops in my area also. I am finding many of the coffee shops even better than those I used to visit in the states and Europe. There definitely is that European vibe to just linger. Although MX really does know how to lead by example when it comes to slowing down.
I totally agree! 🇲🇽😊
Going next week so thank you for the recommendations. Maybe some videos on the different museums in the city.
I met you guys this week! I’ll have to try some of these spots
I would like to see an update on coffee shops in Juarez (including my favorite mom and pop shop - with coffee roasted in house - Gabi's Cafe). I suspect you guys aren't drinkers - but if so, I would love to see craft breweries and also rooftop or outdoor patios for cocktails. I am also interested in any type of art gallery crawl. You both have a great aesthetic - I think this is something that you could showcase well.
We have a couple of ideas of videos to do in Juarez! We do drink but usually it's either at home or a very special occasion so we don't bring our cameras with us (this is also why we haven't made a video on best places to eat yet). I love the art gallery crawl idea too! Thank you very much
Congratulations on your new business! And wow so many places to go!
Thank you so much!
Awesome job as always. Would love it if you did a tour of Juárez, the beautiful and super-cool neighborhood that many CZcamsrs overlook.
Great idea 😊👍
It would be interesting to see you go to a concert in CDMX. The specific concert I have in mind is The Warning/The Foo Fighters on November 10. Assumes you are willing to endure a large outdoor crowd in the middle of a pandemic.
Art. You guys should visit the museums. CDMX is the second city in the world with more museums
Great idea! Thank you!
I love all your videos. Especially the neighborhood and vegan food videos. I’d like to see what you guys eat and recipes that you use. Transportation such as buses and subway video would be good. Tiendas and mercados would be nice. For those of us thinking and planning on moving to Mexico this would be helpful. I can’t wait to see what your new business will offer. I wish you lots of success with it.
Noted! Thank you so much! 😊
Great video 🙌 I like seeing vlogs so those are always good ideas 💡 you can also include a video on vegan recipe that you love ❤️
Ooo gonna have to try Constela on the next trip :D
Yes, as you observed, La Roma and La Condesa are lumped together. But it's because one is the expansion zone of the other's gentrification process. So they share in common many of the same people and flavors of hipsterish-ness. It's very much like a lot of cities where successful gentrification means many early stage gentrifiers are displaced. They must move on to the next adjacent neighborhood. So in my city, Los Feliz gave way to Silverlake gave way to Echo Park--all next to each other--and all pretty much variations on the same street aesthetic. FWIW: I like Panaderia Rosetta. I bought a whole bunch of stuff from there and took it back home to share in LA!
Hola ! will be visiting Mexico and CDMX for the first time in November, so I love following your videos because a) I can understand the current state of the country during the pandemic, and b) see all these beautiful neighborhoods. Question: for people that like to visit museums/galleries, would you recommend I email museums to understand how and when I can reserve tickets? ALSO, seeing you wearing long sleeve clothing although it should be summer there, does that mean that the weather CDMX is usually cold?
CDMX in November Is cold, i recomend. Frida Lalo museo,. Antropology museum, souraya museum,. Visit madero and 5de mayo street....histórico center,. Parque la mexicana,. La condesa,Roma,Polanco, Coyoacán
@@TABCHISJAL hola, mi pregunta sería: debería reservar tickets para ir a alguno de estos museos? Yo entiendo que por la Pandemia quieran reducir su capacidad
@@fransinia.4675 No es necesario.... Reservar.
Te recomiendo visitar parque la mexicana ,Polanco,la Roma, la Condesa, Coyoacán, Xochimilco, Teotihuacan...
Y el centro histórico..
Calles madero y 5 de mayo..
Bellas artes y el zócalo.
Saludos
I did not reserve tickets to any of the the museums I visited when I was there pre pandemic and did not have a problem. The only one I couldn’t get into was the Frida Kahlo museum, probably because it’s so small. I would be more concerned about what is open right now. Most of the museums are free!
The legendary Avellaneda on Higuera Street, in Coyoacán.
Bienvenidos, you should try Gradios , in downtown... café d'especialité
Try some of the Eater Mexico City restaurants. I'm planning a trip to visit and can't wait to try so many of the upscale restaurants I've seen.
Food has been a very popular suggestion so we'll keep that in mind. Thank you!
You guys are so cute!! I wanna hang out with you in CDMX
Guys what airline do you recommend to fly about Mexico as backpacking.
Hmm... Honestly, we usually just go with the cheapest option after baggage fees, extra charges, taxes, etc are taken into account. Since domestic flights are always under 2 hours, we don't really care if it's uncomfortable but maybe someone else has more insight.
Aeromexico is supposed to be the best airline in the country if that helps.
A production note: that music bed was so loud I bailed.
Yes, it was an slip up in editing but it's only an issue in the first few seconds of the video!
You may already have some videos like this. But I would like to see non-mexican food places in Mexico City. There was another CZcamsr I used to watch who did walking videos. He passed by waffle spot owned by a lady from Amsterdam, Stroopen waffles. Korean Grill, other cool non-traditional food options.
Also "where to stay' hotel options in parts of the city, and pros and cons to them.
Thanks for your videos which we find informational and entertaining. We(a family of three) would like to visit CDMX in December and wondering if you have any recommendations for hotels in Roma Norte and safer parts of the city where we can 1) not worry much about street crime (i.e. safe to walk around), 2) be able to walk to nice restaurants and cafes including vegan friendly places, 3) easy to take public transport or Uber to visit sights and museums, 4) if possible, a hotel that has their entire water supply purified.
Aww thank you! If you choose to stay in Roma Norte, you'll be in a safe area with vegan options nearby no matter where you choose. It's also located in the center of Mexico City so it's a great place to take public transportation and to use a base for all your city travels. Even if you stayed at the Four Seasons, you wouldn't have drinkable water on tap but any hotel will have water that's clean enough for normal use. You'll just need to buy drinking water elsewhere.
I see Hotel MX Roma for $36 a night (refundable rate) for December stay and I am wondering how a hotel room can be so inexpensive in a nice area of a capital city. Any gotchas one has to be aware of? How about Holiday Inn & Suites Zona Reforma (a little over a mile from Roma) or Marquis Reforma?
Could you do a video on the best places to find vegan food?
Do some apartment tours on these locations including prices.
We'd love to do that!
Can we see cool bars in the area
We mentioned a couple in our Roma Neighborhood tour czcams.com/video/MdekkHcxNSY/video.html but bars are typically too dark and loud to make a true video in:(
I wouldn't mind seeing a video guide to "driving in Mexico for newcomers." For example I have questions like "will I be confused by the street signs and traffic signals? will I miss a stop and blast through an intersection ? will I go down a one-way street the wrong way ? will I get ticketed (or worse) for parking illegally because I don't recognize the signs? will I ruin my car by hitting a tope that I didn't see in time?" From what I hear you might need separate videos: "Driving in Mexico (outside CDMX)" and "Driving in CDMX" (a short: "don't even try?"). Also you could maybe do a separate video guide on the process of getting a rental car--finding a good deal, making sure you've got good insurance, things to be aware of, etc."
And then I know you've done tours of your own apartments but I'd like to see a guide (again for potential newcomers) such as "here's a quick tour of 2 or 3 typical AirBnB apartments plus one long-term rental we found on this Mexican site, in this range of prices (low to higher) in Roma Norte & Condesa (or other popular neighborhoods). You guys presumably have a good knowledge of current typical prices, what you can get, in what neighborhoods, and could translate that into English for those of us whose Spanish isn't quite strong enough yet to want to risk a lot of money on an apartment.
Love your videos, especially the CDMX neighborhood tours.
Great idea! We've only driven a few times so right now I don't feel qualified to make a video but I can say that it's quite intuitive. It's very similar to driving in the US in every important way.
Thank you very much for your suggestions!
Ah, I’m glad you filmed this! and making bold statements also. Most movie and vlogger portrayed mexico only in filthy place with slum restaurants.
I’ve watched some chinese movie they showed literally just this modern cafe, a nice (also modern and clean) cityscape with good looking neighborhood.
Forgot the city name but it has a smaller and colorful jesus statue (yes, you read that right even chinese portrays the real modern side of mexico) shame on you hollywood! And that bastard drew binsky
Minimal Skincare, Body care, perfume, and Makeup please tana
Aww thank you so much! :)
Yes this one! I know it’s going to be pretty relaxing already 😄
Easily
Go to a a boxing gym….
what about that cockroach in the breads display EEEEWWK
Background music when you are talking is super annoying.
It was an editing mistake:( i promise it gets better
Serg and Tana are emblematic of what I get so annoyed about Mexico City. The whole “Mexico City is (surprisingly) rich!” vibes literally disgusts me. As an expat here, I feel like they couldn’t be more off.
Influencers like this are the reason the trio of neighborhoods (Roma, Condesa and Polanco) are so heavily saturated with bougie expats. Benito Juárez is rolling in his grave right now and Porfirio Díaz is looking down on his precious “Parisian neighborhoods.”
I just wish there was a way to eliminate the classist element of this content. Not every English speaking expat is a famous software developer. A lot of us are English teachers making enough money an hour to only pay for 1 fancy coffee with homemade nut milk.
Instead of cafe tours I would much rather see tours of fondas Mexicanas, comida callejera or anything that actually is... Mexican. Instead of cafe tours why not show the world our lovely (and much more affordable) street food culture? Why not show off all of the things in the city that are free to the public? The influencer, cafe lifestyle doesn’t appeal to many folks (largely for economic reasons). Teach viewers how to order street food in Spanish, teach people how to assert themselves at restaurants, how to ask for the check, how to use the metro, etc...
The “I only use Tesla Beat because peasant cars make me car sick” vibes from this channel are so cringe.
"anything that is actually Mexican" is exactly the type of generalizations that we try to address with our content in a passive way. For many people, our videos are the first contact that they have to a Mexico that differs from the mainstream narrative of a country that's otherwise either a beach party destination or an unsafe poor place.
Perhaps you and many other people are not interested in coffee culture in Mexico so I don't think this video is necessarily for you.
I believe the anger stems from the fact that we are foreign. However I (serg) am also Mexican and I can tell you that reducing our country to fondas is disrespectful to the thousands of local restauranteurs, artists, and visionaries who are doing things differently to a narrow perspective of what this country should be.
I understand that we live a privileged lifestyle and we have never tried to pretend that we don't. There are many creators who are doing a wonderful job making different types of videos and we all have a shared goal of shedding Mexico under a positive light. Diversity in content reflects the diversity in lifestyles that this country offers to locals, visitors, and immigrants alike.
Austin, the beauty of CZcams is that anyone can upload their own video in their own style and share a vision of their home to the world. As an immigrant to Mexico (I’ve got feelings about the word expat) - why not share your version of CDMX if you don’t think that Serg & Tana are doing it to your liking? I love their videos and their take on the country. Although I do think that tourists should attempt to order food in Spanish, I don’t think that’s what Serg & Tana need to do.
My husband and I happen to love this channels sweet easygoing vibe. We love that they profile nice coffee shops and vegan restaurants. They are filling a niche, not every CZcamsr needs to vlog street food. We love that they show neighborhoods that their viewers might want to visit. This couple and their dog are our favorite CZcamsrs. I don’t feel that they should teach me to speak Spanish, nor do I want them to. I’m happy to learn on my own. We like some channels and others we don’t but we ❤️❤️❤️ this one. We are all free to watch the channels that best suit us. Just my two cents, for what it’s worth.
I will hazard a guess that there is room on the internet for many different types of content. Serg & Tana obviously love coffee and cafes - as do many people - so it makes sense that they would feature a side of Mexico City that they enjoy. The truth is - they do a great job! I love coffee too and really appreciate the variety that is available in CDMX and featured in these vids. I was duly marking "want to go" on my map app as the video unfolded. Besides, who said that coffee and coffee culture are not "actually" Mexican? Also, I have watched many of their videos and do not remember them ever expressing surprise or, god forbid, shock about how rich Mexico City is. Oh, and well off expats tend to congregate in the same neighbourhoods in many cities - they certainly do here in Vancouver. There are many sociological reasons for that - I don't think you can blame vloggers.
Austin, if you search on CZcams you will find many options for the type of content that you are interested in. I have seen at least three videos about how to use the metro (even a "how to" for the pass dispenser machine). I have also seen excellent videos showcasing different types of street food (and a few Netflix series including Taco Chronicles). Or you could watch horrific videos that focus on and reinforce stereotypes about Mexico (for example, if you can stomach it, check Harald Baldr and Bald and Bankrupt in Mexico last last year). Try to be positive.
Orthodontic work is very affordable in Mexico…just saying…
