"M cafe,
In Coatepec is a real treat, in the heart of this small coffee culture town. The first thing you will notice is architecture and design next the high level of service, my waitress (Carla) spoke excellent English, was super attentive and welcoming. M cafe also has a store where you can buy various merchandise next to the store a Barista can explain the whole roasting, blending and Brewing process, and you may try different blends.
Seating has options inside and out something for everyone.

"if you speak Spanish doing the 2 hour tour is a must, you will learn alot about coffee. 75 pesos is a joke for what you get in return so a nice tip could be adequate."
