Service
Best for: Lively Cuban crowd will get the party started in an instant
Worst for: Not the most glamorous of locales. Can get claustrophobic inside.
Malecón No. 107, entre Genios & Crespo, Centro Havana
(+53)7861 - 4864
12m to 12am daily

    • This social club is set in a marvelous (if run-down) building right on the Malecón. The upstairs has been recently renovated as a restaurant serving international cuisine. Downstairs is often packed with local Cubans who like the lively non-pretentious airs, location and cheap cover. Really less of a bar and more of a club.

    La Campana

    La Campana  LH 4+

    Chill out bar and grill, La Campana seems at first glance more an upmarket homestead finca (farm) than anything else. This is an upmarket ranchón beside a nice pool. The tables are comfortable and wel …

    El Floridita

    El Floridita  LH 5

    While the Floridita has its detractors, it is probably worth stopping in for a daiquiri just because it is there. It has certainly been around the block since it first opened its doors over 200 years …
