Delicious fresh churros! You can have them served with chocolate, caramel or condensed milk and…read moretopped with cinnamon or sugar. We also enjoyed the iced coffee and chocolates. You can order sandwiches from the place next door. They have table service and plenty of seating which is quiet and easy to talk

So one night while making my way back to my hotel in Roma Norte, after some late night drinking, I…read morenoticed a spot that was open that didn't look like a bar or taco shop. They had a pretty good crowd, that's when I noticed it was a churro shop and it was called El Moro. During my weeklong trip to Mexico City I ended up visiting this shop multiple times during all different times of the day and evening. This business I found out later has multiple locations and is one of the most famous churro shops in all of Mexico City. I really enjoyed them so much-their churros are made fresh all day I liked that this location was super clean and had plenty of tables to sit to enjoy your freshly made churros and coffee drinks. Speaking of coffee drinks, they have excellent coffee as many a mornings on this trip started with coffee from El Moro. Their churros are very inexpensive as they run about 16 pesos($0.95 USD) each.So we always grabbed a few every visit. The churros had a really good size to them and were just doused in cinnamon and sugar-they tasted perfect both sweetness level and texture-wise. I generally always ordered Americanos which ran 55 pesos($3.25 USD) Not the best value in the world but good enough/they matched up well with the fresh churros. Overall I would highly recommend stopping by El Moro if you run across one of them on your travels to Mexico City-I really enjoyed them and look forward to visiting them again on future visits to Mexico City.

Panadería Rosetta - Delightful

Panaderia Rosetta simply gets 5 stars for their guayaba roll. Yes, be prepared to wait, and yes, it…read morecan be overrun with tourists, but I was prepared for all of this given the location. This is the 3rd time I've been back to Panaderia Rosetta for a guayaba roll (guava roll). I also tried the maíz concha and the pan de muerto this last time--both were delicious. I would easily order the concha de maíz and the guava roll next time around no questions asked. They are both delicious and very different from each other. For foreigners, especially coming from the US, the prices are very fair given the quality and notoriety of the bakery. We're so used to getting ripped off at coffee shops in the states. By Mexican standards, it's expensive and definitely a treat. Tourist trap or not, it's delicious and a must if you're visiting CDMX.

This place is a madhouse. Is it 'iconic'? Yes. Is it worth it? Probably. But there are a ton of…read moreplaces that create very similar items that may be just as good. But back to the iconic part is why we visited. Packed to the gills, line down the street, chaos completely. The line did go quickly though, but if you do not like crowds, yelling all around, no where to sit and eat/drink, and chaos in general this is not for you. We ordered: Guava roll, Cornbread, Rosemary bun, Mille-feuille of red fruits, Cream filled donut, Tomato and basil focaccia, Potato and provolone focaccia, coffees and lattes. My favorite was honestly the Tomato and basil focaccia. The guava roll was good but of the sweets the Cream filled donut was on par. Now I can say I've been there, not sure I'd do it again for just bakery items, granted it was an experience. For a proper meal at a table though, for sure.

Um... YUM. This spot was originally on my CDMX itinerary as a post-dinner dessert, but since we…read morewere nearby and looking for a snack, we decided to stop in earlier (and honestly, I wish I had gone back again ). There was a small line, and after ordering it did take a bit to get our food, but that was totally fine. Perfection takes time! The ambiance is very casual and geared toward a quick stop. There's plenty of seating for an easy in-and-out, but it's not really a place meant to linger. It's more of an open-concept setup-covered, but still open to the outside air. We ordered the mini ice cream churro sandwiches (can't remember the exact name): two vanilla and one Fresca, which was basically strawberry. Maybe it was because we were hungry, but wow- they smacked. The vanilla paired with the churro was especially incredible. Since I felt like I still hadn't gotten the full churro experience I was craving in CDMX, I hopped back in line and ordered the classic churro. Let me tell you... this thing was HUGE. Basically three churros in one. It came out warm, perfectly crisp, and coated in the best cinnamon topping. You're asked if you want sugar or cinnamon sugar, and with a bit of a language barrier (they don't speak much English), I just said yes and ended up with half cinnamon, half sugar. No complaints here! The cashier and staff were all super friendly and smiley, which made the experience even better despite the communication gap. Overall, such a delicious stop and 100% worth it.
