Spring in Mexico City

Spring in Mexico City is a total dream. The weather is warm and sunny, and the city transforms into a violet-hued wonderland as the Jacaranda trees burst into bloom. It’s the perfect time to trade the winter blues for a "slow living" pace in the heart of the capital.

The Best of the Season

  • Jacaranda Walks: The streets of Roma, Condesa, and Paseo de la Reforma are the best places to wander under a canopy of purple flowers.

  • Green Escapes: Spend a morning at Bosque de Chapultepec, a massive forest within the city, where you can explore the only royal castle in the Americas.

  • Museum Hopping: Beat the afternoon warmth by heading indoors to one of the city's 150+ museums—the Anthropology Museum is a must!

Al Fresco Living: Top 10 Outdoor Dining Spots

Spring is prime time for sitting at sidewalk cafes or enjoying a meal in a lush courtyard. Here are our favorite spots to soak up the sun:

  1. Rosetta (Roma Norte): Dine in a stunning porfirian mansion with a courtyard that feels like a secret garden.

  2. Contramar (Roma Norte): The ultimate spot for a long, sunny lunch. Order the iconic tuna tostadas and sit curbside.

  3. Huset (Roma Norte): A "country kitchen" in the city. Its gravel-floor patio and hanging lights are magical during spring afternoons.

  4. Lardo (Condesa): Grab a seat at the large open windows or the sidewalk tables for the best people-watching and artisanal Mediterranean fare.

  5. Máximo (Roma Norte): High-end sustainable dining with a beautiful terrace that perfectly captures the Roma vibe.

  6. Cityzen (Reforma): For a bird’s-eye view of the Jacarandas on Reforma, this rooftop bar and restaurant is unbeatable.

  7. Azul Histórico (Centro): Eat under a canopy of trees in the stunning courtyard of a colonial palace.

  8. Lago Algo (Chapultepec): Located right on the lake in the forest, it’s the perfect mix of modern architecture and nature.

  9. Panadería Rosetta (Puebla St.): A smaller, charming sidewalk spot perfect for a guava roll and a coffee under the sun.

  10. Madre Café (Roma Norte): Set in a restored mansion with a massive, lively terrace—ideal for brunch that turns into cocktails.
