PUNTO CAFÉ BARRA DE CAFÉ DE ESPECIALIDAD

somewhere between tlaxpana's quieter residential blocks and the busier stretch of miguel hidalgo, punto café sits at the corner of nezahualpilli and tonantzin, which is the kind of address you have to look up once and then you just know it. this part of the city doesn't get the same café-tourist traffic as roma or condesa, so the people showing up here are mostly showing up on purpose. that focus tends to produce something more consistent than hype does. as a specialty roaster, they're working closer to the source of the coffee itself, not just pulling shots from someone else's bag, and that distinction matters if you care about what's actually in your cup. worth arriving before the morning rush clears out.
