Cafes and bars in Roma Norte, Mexico City

Roma Norte holds more range than most neighbourhoods on this list manage at once. A quiet, work-friendly coffee bar or two sit a few minutes from a Japanese-inspired cafe built around matcha and sandos, and from Panadería Rosetta, whose queue for the vanilla concha is real and moves fast despite it. Licorería Limantour anchors the evening end of the street, a cocktail bar that has cracked the World's 50 Best list every year since 2014. Few Mexico City blocks run the full range from laptop afternoon to world-class nightcap this cleanly.
