Nevería Roxy
Eighty years old, still at its first address in Condesa, and internationally singled out for one flavour — mamey. It is also the clearest example in the city of a historic house that grew into a small chain and says plainly how it now makes what it sells.
What to order
Mamey.
What we know

- The 1946 division of labour is on the record — Carlos Gallardo ran the soda fountain, María Luisa Rubio made the nieves, helados and jams
- Its mamey was named in Taste Atlas's hundred best ice creams in the world
- The original 1946 shop on Fernando Montes de Oca is still open and still trading
