Best places: Bars in Catedral, Cuba

👍👍 I have been to Cuba twice (7 years apart) and El Dandy remains my favorite local bar to sit, enjoy great drinks, and people watch. The staff are super friendly & the drinks tasty!

👍👍 Superb meals, especially the lobsters! Went there twice during the same trip. Affordable price and good exchange rate from USD to Pesos. Food - amazing, fresh seafood Price - good Ambiance - good Location - great

🫤 I feel sorry to say this - but I cannot recommend this restaurant. The food was really good - we had the tacos. The cocktails have been OK. The prices are much higher compared to they other bars (which they can do of course) BUT - and that’s the real reason why I cannot recommend this place based on...

Storied watering hole with writing on the walls, framed photographs of celebrities & mojitos.

👍👍 We loved this place! Food is great, service is great, drinks are great, live music is great. What more could you want! Order a cocktail - the drinks are strong and very well made. The live music starts at about 9pm and is honestly fantastic.

👍👍 Tolle Bar mit super Ambiente direkt hinter dem Capitolio. War vor Jahren schon dort und im Juli 2023 wieder. Extrem freundliches und nettes Personal. Hervorragende Cocktails zum günstigen Preis.

👍👍 We had a spectacular evening here, really good atmosphere, especially for those who appreciate the cuban culture, music and energy. Before going there I also read the reviews and got really angry after the show with those who called it “boring”, I mean, you must have no taste in anything to not appr...

👍👍 Cozy atmosphere with an interesting theme, as well as live music. The tacos (Cuban version, not Mexican) that we ordered were very tasty, the drinks were well prepared and the service was very polite. The service is a little slow, but it was worth it and it's a place I would go again.

👍👍 I've been coming to Cafe Bohemia for a few years. It's just a great one-stop-shop kind of place in Havana. Get away from the busyness of the Old Havana streets, have some good quality, reasonably priced food/drink, use WIFI, and enjoy good service. I typically come for breakfast, but have been known...

👍👍 Beautiful place in a rough street. Felt like home to us! Coffee was good and the staff very friendly. It’s Cuba- running out of anything is to be expected, but the modern interior made it up for me 🤗. Very nice place’

😠 After one week in Havana: this was our most expensive dinner with moderate tasting food (European high-end prices, plus all side dishes to be paid) at a nice spot. However it felt as a farther dirty environment because of odors of the grill and very fat windows. Terrible service: no interest in us a...

👍👍 Was it the best daiquiri I had in my life? Yes it was! I only regret finding this bar on my last day in Havana. Great vibe and amazing people, the owner is a lovely person with an open mind and big creativity, who is very keen to share stories about Cuba or how he built this place himself.

👍👍 Sadly they don’t make their own coffee anymore. Now they serve Lavazza. It was delicious, but was hoping to try their blend. You can see the machines and everything still there. I’m hoping next time I visit I get to try it. All the staff is amazing. And the views are great.

👍👍 Food was not worth paying for and the service is equally not so great. The music is amazing, a once in a lifetime opportunity to watch Buena Vista Social Club perform. The music and show more than makes up for the food and service. You can dance on the stage with the band two or three times throu...

👍👍 Experiencia reciente en familia, primera semana de abril 2023, inmejorable!!! Lo mejor que hemos disfrutado en Habana Vieja. Local con nueva gestión (desde finales de marzo 2023) a cargo de Aarón, todo un profesional con la mejor atención al cliente. La comida excelente: tostones de cerdo, ceviche,...

😠 If you are a non white person, nobody will even look at you. The staff do not seem to be Cuban. Rude people. I love Cuba, will go again soon, but will never ever go there or taking my friends.

Upbeat, colorful local tavern with live music, mojitos & traditional Cuban snacks.

👍👍 Located in Old Havana, La Makina is a quaint restaurant with a modern edge. The rooftop open air dining was a plus. Since we arrived the attentiveness and cordiality of the entire staff was superb. Wide array of appetizers and main course to select from. I strongly recommend the Octopus in Pesto a...

👍👍 A good place to enjoy a beer, a place with charm and very good attention. It is good to find sites with such good quality in the product they make. I really liked being able to know this place. Highly recommended. Although Havana is known for rum and cigars, they also have good beer!

😐 Sloppy Joe's is considered an iconic bar by some. Although I like the decor of the interior, the atmosphere is lacking and the cocktails are average at best. I stuck around long enough to get an overall feel, and was relatively disappointed. I enjoy the neighbourhood and the culture of the surroundi...
