    In the interests of transparency I have to admit that this used to be my local and I maintain a very soft spot for the place. With greenery on all sides and a (generally nonfunctioning) fountain in th …

    Situated across from the Amadeo Roldán theatre this is a piano bar, which is a good option when you are looking for somewhere new. Small, clean, pleasant with a variety of entertainment and surprising …

    Telégrafo Hotel bar

    The elegant lobby bar of this hotel can have its ambience thrown somewhat out of sync by visiting tour groups on the Hemingway hunt. There is however often a great piano player downstairs and the roof …

    Chico O’Farrill Bar

    Chico O’Farrill Bar  LH 1

    One of the better places among those found in Havana Vieja’s hostales, this place serves as a relaxing hideaway by day or by night. Bands perform on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. While it has an I …
