Things To Do
Animal Masaryk
Our first date spot in Mexico City! If you come here, you cannot leave without getting the pastel de campechana de pistache on their dessert menu!
Mi Compa Chava Marisquería
Amazing seafood, a must try!
Panadería Rosetta
We had this for breakfast, daily. Highly recommend the guava roll and cardamom roll!
Café Nin
Great coffee spot with a cool ambiance! I loved our matcha and cardamom affogato.
Tacos del Valle (Roma Norte)
Awesome tacos. Be prepared to wait in line or you can place a take out order when you're there! There is also a trendy side street next to it to explore!
Contramar
Legendary seafood restaurant in Roma Norte known for fresh, coastal-style Mexican dishes. Definitely a power lunch spot - recommend the tuna tostadas!
Churrería El Moro
Craving churros? Go here!
Bobo Burgers & Café (Roma Norte)
Don't be fooled by the name. They have good burgers, but even better pancakes! Try it out for breakfast!
Matcha Mío Café
If you’re into matcha, Matcha Mio is kind of a must-know spot. Think Japanese/Korean-inspired matcha culture but adapted to a trendy CDMX café vibe.
Restaurante Rosetta
Definitely make a reservation prior to your trip if you'd like to have dinner here! Very popular spot, rightfully so!
Blanco Colima
Mexican-European fusion, very pretty inside. Recommend reservations!
Parole Polanco
Fine dining Italian food, definitely will need a reservation in advance!
Taquería Orinoco
Quick, delicious tacos - not vegetarian friendly (we figured that out too late). There is also another location in Roma!
Cafebrería El Péndulo Polanco
Cool bookstore for any book lovers! There is another location in Condesa.
Frida Kahlo Museum
One of the most famous museums in Mexico City. Be sure to book tickets in advance.
Templo Mayor Museum
One of the most important historical sites and museums in Mexico City—and it’s completely different in vibe from the Frida Kahlo house. You’re literally standing in the center of the Aztec world, steps away from the main square! Generally, you can buy tickets at the door. Advance tickets are an option if you do not wish to wait in line.
Avenida Presidente Masaryk
One of the most exclusive and expensive shopping streets in Mexico and Latin America.
Bosque de Chapultepec
The name “Chapultepec” comes from Nahuatl and means “Hill of the Grasshopper”. It’s not just a park—it’s a cultural and historical hub. You'll find Chapultepec Castle, National Museum of Anthropology, lakes, walking paths, gardens, and a zoo inside this park!
Teotihuacán Hot Air Balloon
One of the most popular experiences near Mexico City — a sunrise hot air balloon ride over the ancient pyramids of Teotihuacán, about 45 minutes outside Mexico City.
La Gruta Restaurante & Spa
For those looking to adventure, less than a 2 hour drive in Teotihuacan, you can dine inside a natural volcanic cave- beautiful both during the day and night!
Xochimilco
Come here for a canal boat ride. Book tours online in advance!
