Best for: Great looking traditional Cuban bar. Nice atmosphere and good band.
Worst for: Lacks that special ingredient to become great.
Obispo No. 316, esquina Habana
(+53)7862 - 9870
Open 10am-midnight daily

    • 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 spread tables seem to militate against a more intimate atmosphere of somewhere like Café París. Worth a pit stop on Obispo but not a destination place.
