El Café

Old Havana's El Café does everything right: from all-day breakfasts to sandwiches (pulled pork with yucca, greens and orange marmalade sauce caught our fancy), coffee specialties, and even drinks with a Cuban rum kick for early pre-party gatherings.

Cafes

Havana's leisurely pace is best embraced from an outdoor terrace of the city's many cafes. Old classics mingle with hip new openings, leaving up to one's taste to pick a favourite. A good place to start is the Plaza del Cristo, where some of the trendier establishments are now concentrated — many double as bars featuring live music come sundown.
