So I have a pretty strict rule about going to the same place more than 2 times while on vacation - especially when it's your first time in the city and there are tons of options. However, Peltre was so good and had so many options, that we couldn't help ourselves - we went 4 times in 5 days. We stumbled upon it on our first morning while looking for coffee, after having decided the line across the street was way too long. Both the cold brew and the cappuccinos were exceptional and we were really impressed by the care and skill with which we could see the employees in the kitchen crafting the meals. So the next day, while we were in a hurry, we decided just to grab coffee there again. We were able to go a day without visit Peltre, but then it was New Year's Day and everywhere else was closed, so we sat down for brunch. The third time around, the coffee was still great and we were blown away by how good their breakfast was. My egg sandwich was made with wonderful, thick, buttery slices bread and the egg was so expertly cooked into the hole cut out of the bread. We shared a chocolate concha and took turns dipping it into the cappuccino - omg so heavenly. As for our fourth visit, we actually went to a place several blocks away and in comparison were so disappointed, that we decided to make one last Peltre visit to get their coffee and a sandwich to go.
Each time they were delicious, super reasonably priced, and staffed with skilled, kind workers. The atmosphere is incredibly pleasant and I implore you to make a trip if you're in CDMX! read more
