This wood-panelled design store was previously located in Mexico City and sells niche publications as well as watering cans that double as vases. A one-stop-shop for edgy gifting. 

Hidden up a staircase on the second floor of a coffee shop, you’ll find people jostling around an open courtyard at the city’s liveliest watering hole. The menu changes frequently but expect superb cocktails such as the Jicama Sour, a quintessential lemon-and-egg-white cocktail made with fresh poblano chile and kefir leaf oil. 

A gallery set in a light-filled modernist building in the Americana neighborhood, redesigned by architect Sergio Ortiz. On display is founder José Noe Suro’s private collection as well as a rotation of exhibitions from homegrown artists.  

Set in a former elementary school, the multi-room white space is dedicated to local artists (of which there are many), such as sculptor and ceramicist Alejandro Garcia Contreras,  who has become well-known in the scene for his elaborate, colourful creations.
