Red Coffee — Restaurant in Mexico City

The friendliest service and highly creative drinks at a cute café in the Condesa neighborhood. At the top of my must-visit list, this clean café had a variety of unique and inventive coffee options, especially the dozen choices on their “café creativo” menu. However, for non-coffee drinkers, the options were more limited, which was a slight letdown. They did offer staples like chai and matcha lattes, with at least six matcha variations. We opted for the matcha coco and decided to try both the iced and hot versions.

Our order was taken by a very friendly and knowledgeable barista, who served our drinks promptly. The iced coco matcha required a quick stir before drinking, while the hot version was ready to enjoy. The iced matcha, unfortunately, was a bit underwhelming and on the weaker side. The coconut flavor wasn’t very pronounced, though I appreciated that it wasn’t overly sweet.

In a city with endless great cafes, Red Coffee may have just taken the crown for me. We had the oolong latte and matcha latte, two of the many inventive drinks on the menu, and both were delicious. The oolong in particular was like nothing I'd tried before. The cinnamon French toast was moist with just the perfect amount of egg-iness. The yogurt parfait was generously loaded with the juiciest berries. But the star of the show was the scallion pancake, which transported me back to my childhood in China. So happy to have discovered this place in my neighbourhood. Will definitely...
