Malecón No. 107, entre Genios & Crespo, Centro Havana

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.

    This is consistently busy and looks like it should be a great bar. Given this, the atmosphere tends often to be a little disappointing, the house band is not quite as good as many others, and widely s …
