About this profile

MEKAI Café brings together coffee, Mexican flavors, and the simple pleasure of spending time around a table. It is a café with a personality of its own, where you can catch up over a warm drink, start your day with breakfast, or take a break to try something different. Its phrase, “Esencia que nos une,” meaning “The essence that brings us together,” expresses an invitation to connect through flavors and moments worth sharing. Coffee is at the heart of the experience. MEKAI offers blends described on its menu as 100% organic, with different combinations of beans and roast levels. Its Clásico blend combines Arabica and Marago beans with a medium roast, while Premium brings together Arabica, Robusta, and Marago, also medium roasted. For visitors interested in a coffee-and-cacao combination, Xocolat offers a dark-roasted alternative. These choices give both everyday coffee drinkers and curious visitors different starting points. The brewing method is another part of that exploration. Alongside espresso-machine preparation, the café offers French press, an Italian coffee maker, and V60 pour-over. Each provides a different way to enjoy coffee and an opportunity to discover which preparation suits your preferences. You can choose an American-style coffee served hot or cold, or explore drinks that combine espresso, milk, and additional flavors. Some of the house drinks introduce ingredients with a strong connection to Mexican food traditions. Pozol, made with cacao and corn, offers visitors a taste of a traditional beverage from southeastern Mexico. Kaayam, a house blend of cacao, oats, and amaranth, provides another way to explore these ingredients. Together, they give the café a distinctive identity and offer reasons to look beyond your usual coffee order. There is also plenty of room for those who enjoy creamy, sweet, or refreshing drinks. Espresso-and-milk combinations feature familiar flavors such as vanilla, caramel, chocolate, hazelnut, and almond. Other choices bring in Mexican mazapán candy, coconut, mint, and fruity flavors. The variety makes it easy to follow your mood, whether you want a simple breakfast drink, something warm for a quiet break, or a cold option for a change of pace. The drink selection extends to flavors such as matcha, chai, and taro, along with berries and passion fruit. Visitors curious about a different approach to coffee can also explore combinations of espresso, sparkling water, ice, and orange, lime, or mango flavors. This range allows people sharing a table to enjoy different tastes while choosing between something familiar and something new. Food complements the drinks with breakfast dishes and savory options inspired by Mexican cooking. The café’s MEKAI chilaquiles can be paired with options such as cochinita, cochito, green chorizo, or arrachera steak. Tacos, baguette sandwiches, and omelets are also part of the offering, with choices that include turkey or pork ham. A visit can be a short coffee break or a more substantial breakfast, depending on what you feel like having. For something sweet, the café offers house cake, oatmeal cookies, bread, and filled Mexican-style biscuits known as bisquets. These provide an accompaniment to a drink or something to enjoy while catching up with someone. The mix of familiar treats and distinctive house drinks gives visitors several ways to put together their own experience without making a simple café visit feel complicated. The interior adds another layer of character. Wooden furniture, warm pendant lighting, and turquoise accents sit alongside plants, displayed mugs, and framed pictures recalling travel, cities, and vintage posters. Small tables and a larger shared table provide different seating arrangements, while the objects and artwork give the room a personal, lived-in feel. There are details to notice throughout the space, from the collection of cups to the images on the walls. MEKAI Café invites you to enjoy both what is on the table and the time you spend there. You might come for coffee, breakfast with Mexican flavors, or the chance to discover drinks made with cacao, corn, and house blends. Its combination of variety and a distinctive setting turns an everyday break into an opportunity to talk, share, and find a new favorite.
