good coffee in monterrey takes you off the main drag eventually. café el grande sits on av. josé alvarado in jardín español, a residential stretch that doesn't announce itself as a destination, which is partly why the people who find it tend to stay loyal. this is a roaster that takes the sourcing side seriously, not just the serving side, and you can feel that difference in how the cup holds up as it cools. the regulars here aren't casual, and the standing the place has built reflects years of consistent work rather than a single viral moment. if you're in the área metropolitana and you haven't made it out to jardín español yet, go on a weekday morning, when the neighborhood is still quiet and the espresso is the whole point.
