Inhabiting a beautifully curated mansion on Plaza Vieja, Café Bohemia – named for a Cuban culture and arts magazine – manages to feel appropriately bohemian but also serves great cocktails, tapas and extremely addictive cakes.
The crispy baguettes are consistently good and the daily specials sometimes advertise vegan options. Seating spills into the busy beehive of the plaza, or you can stay more secluded in a colonial courtyard.
