Great little spot. We went on a weekday & people would stop in for a drink & leave. It looks like it's been renovated since the photos with a more modern, hip look & places to sit at. The drinks are frosty & there are many flavors to choose from. We enjoyed the taro and chai. The latter flavor really popped. The taro needed a bit more flavor in it, overwise it was very subtle. The tapioca balls were a touch undercooked, but still good & chewy. Different milk choices--whole, skim & almond. The grande is really a lot! Well worth the price.--Mxn$65.

Gran servicio, gran producto, con buen café y variedad de bebidas dulces. Quizás esté un poco escondido pero vale la pena encontrarlo.

Es un local pequeño. Pero tiene 2 mesitas por si quieres sentarte a tomar tu café ahí. Muy buenos los cafés y frapes. Tienen diferentes opciones de leche, para todos.
