La Frapp stands out as a charming rooftop café nestled in the historic heart of Mexico City, specifically at República de Argentina 15. Customers rave about the delightful ambiance, marked by airy views and a laid-back vibe, making it a welcome retreat from the bustling streets below.

Many patrons, like Cara Farris, appreciate the quality service and casual snack offerings, while Billie Hall highlights the surprisingly delicious lunch menu, featuring homemade chips with guacamole alongside a tasty jamon iberica salad. The granizados also receive special mentions for their delightful flavors. The tranquil morning hours, as suggested by Leslie Guzman, provide an ideal setting for coffee and light bites, like rich chocolate cake, combined with a peaceful atmosphere—perfect for working or relaxing.

Despite the challenges of climbing a few flights of stairs, the view from the rooftop terrace is a reward in itself, noticeably enjoyed by reviewers like Mark Manguno and Eva Farcher. As the day progresses, the café does get busier, but its inviting charm and reasonable prices ensure that La Frapp is a must-visit gem in the Centro Histórico.

Nice rooftop coffee bar with some snack foods. Prices were as expected, and to be honest, it was a nice break from the streets and the service was great.

To get to the cafe, one has to walk up a couple flights of stairs which is a bit tiring. I would recommend getting there at 11 am or slightly before. I tried going back another morning but it was still closed at 10 am. The morning is the best time in my opinion because you will get your order fast and it's also still very tranquil. It is a rooftop cafe with nice views. however, by afternoon, it starts to get a bit more packed with more people looking for a table to sit, busier waiters and louder atmosphere. I worked from there for a couple of hours and then it got too loud for me. Otherwise, I enjoyed my hot chocolate and the view.

Had a lovely and surprisingly delicious lunch, very much enjoyed our entire La Frapp experience. The guacamole came with house made chips which were delicious, the jamon iberica salad was yummy and the granizados were DELICIOUS! Nice airy views and laid back vibe. Loved the tortilleria in the back for fresh made tortillas. Prices were reasonable, and friendly service would definitely return!

From the rooftop terrace there is a very nice view on to the centro historico. The personal was friendly and the coffee and chocolate cake we ordered was really good.

I've had the pleasure of visiting La Frapp not just once, but twice, and it's left quite an impression. During my initial visit, I wasn't following a vegan diet, and I must say, the quesadilla I ordered was absolutely amazing. Their commitment to delicious food was evident. Fast forward two years, and my return to La Frapp was met with fond memories of the stunning view and delightful atmosphere. This time, we opted for drinks, and boy, were they a treat! The flavors were on point, and it was clear that their dedication to quality extended beyond just the food. Whether you're seeking delectable dishes or delightful drinks, La Frapp delivers. I wholeheartedly recommend this place for its outstanding offerings and the memories it creates. It's truly a gem worth experiencing.
