Where in Mexico City?

Right down the block from the Gran Hotel Ciudad de México there's a great hole-in-the-wall on Avenue 16 Septiembre. Across the street there's a VIP (chain).

Assuming you're in centro, until you indicate otherwise, I can recommend 2 places. Sanborn's in the Casa De Los Azulejos, is absolutely amazing. The ambiance more so than for the food. Though the food is still pretty good for a chain.

The other is Cafe Tacuba, the restaurant, not the rock band. A CDMX classic.
Restaurante Café de Tacuba | Desde 1912
We normally don't eat breakfast out, preferring to opt for just coffee and a bakery good or 2 in our room before heading out. But we have been to those places. But there are other classic cafes in centro.

Also a fan of Sanborn's here, especially that one.

Yes, Sanborn's, or perhaps Bisquets Obregon

That Sanborn's, in the "House of Tiles" is worth visiting. Similarly, in the historic center I've had a good breakfast at Bisquets Obregon, located at #85, Calle de Tacuba.

On my high school Spanish class trip, decades ago -- we won't say how many decades it was -- we had breakfast at that Sanborn's every morning in CDMX. It was pleasant, reassuring surroundings for a group of wide-eyed high school kids.

We ate there for breakfast when we were in Mexico City several years back. It was very cool.

I don't like sit down breakfast most days and also do the pastry and coffee thing. There are some excellent panaderias. From one of the street vendors around my hotel, I also sampled some champurrado or atole. If you've never had it, give it a try.

It would help if we knew where OP was staying but they haven't come back to say.
