Love love this spot. It's an old family-run coffee-shop, try the "datil pay" (date pie). Coffee is good too. It has a melancholic old days atmosphere.

Old family-run coffee roaster. it keeps the original decoration, worth a visit because of the old-timer design. Coffee is good too, but served in Styrofoam cups. Closes early and closed on sundays.

It's a gourmet market, where you can buy high quality produce and try a variety of edible insects and exotic meat. I wouldn't miss visiting this market. It's one of the most iconic ones in Mexico City.
They have some booths where you can eat tapas or baguettes with imported hams and cheeses (they will serve you wine for free).
They also have a Peruvian food stand (from the main entrance to the left, all the way to the end, they you go right). It's amazing and not that expensive.
There are also other cheaper options around that area of the market. Good coffee too.

Barrio Alameda hosts a couple of young Mexican designer stores and some restaurants on the ground floor. They have an ok Italian and good burgers. There's also a fancy ice cream shop (I recommend cardamomo flavor). There's a trendy hostal on the rooftop with a bar (never been there but the view seems promising).
