  • Bar Bohemio is more of a Bohemian style café than bar, owned and managed by ex-ballerinas from the National Ballet company. This is an extremely comfortable and warm place with great music, which makes it a perfect place to meet up with friends for (calm) drinks. There is a large patio terrace outside and nice space inside the specious Vedado style mansion.

    The service at Bar Bohemio
    Last time I was in this tapas bar I was joined by at least 30 friends. There was only one waiter that managed to keep track of individual tags and learned almost all our names. Not only that, he was able to serve the drinks fast and always with a smile. The only “down” that I will point out in this place is the lack of fans in its very beautiful terrace. Some kind of air circulation system will be much needed especially in the months to come. Other than that, the place is pretty, the service is great and I can’t wait to be back.
