A great stop for both Hemingway fans and just people that want to enjoy a mojito. Get the typical cuban beef dish with congri - delicious. It's quite crowdy and friendly staff is not guaranteed.

Best mojitos in Havana, you’ll find people there just to get mojitos and have fun, they have a restaurant but we did not tried, we drunk mojitos and danced

Where the famous mojito was invented! The ambiance is great, esp. with the band! Don't forget to write on the walls! For more, visit us at https://deartravellingknot.wordpress.com/

Probably the most famous place to get a Mojito on this planet. Smoke a Habanos cigar and discover all the Hemingway nostalgia

We didn't get drinks here, but it was fun to check out one of the more touristy areas of the city. Great live music and lots of vendors outside. Women in traditional outfits pose for photos for tips.

Tiny bar with great atmosphere, famous as the birthplace of the Mojito. Good place to party with fellow tourists. If you’re looking for something local or cheap mojito’s, better go somewhere else.
Nathalie De BisschopJune 23, 2016
Absolutely loved this place. All the names and dates on the walls make it so special. Go to the highest floor, really chill there.

Good live music, really good mojito and generally a good atmosphere

Between the 2 Hemingway-famous bars, this is my preference as it's much cozier and relaxed.
Chris MarshDecember 12, 2023
Hemingway got this right. Great mojitos and house band.
Martin JonassonDecember 1, 2019
Tiny bar that manage to be a tourist place but still with a lot of characters. Order a mojito, of course
Michał WolniaczykApril 27, 2017
Must be, must see. Nice atmosphere, good mohito
Fodor's TravelMarch 15, 2016
It’s the birthplace of the mojito and has been a favorite for celebrities like Ernest Hemingway.
Carl GriffinNovember 28, 2015
Great atmosphere. One of the many places that claims to be Hemingway's favourite watering holes.
SparkieMay 2, 2016
The bar is always mobbed. Best bet is to have lunch and get the mojito
hotel.infoJuly 12, 2011
Really interesting bar due to its history (walls are jam packed with photos and notes), must check it out and sample the mojito (of course!)
Gustavo Sperandio FernandesFebruary 18, 2016
Great place, full of story. A must visit in la habana.
Angel JuarezFebruary 18, 2019
If you haven't gone yet, you should go now. Don't waist any minute to do it
Martin HiznayJanuary 17, 2016
Great atmosphere and mojitos as well as ropa vieja
Hany YoussefSeptember 6, 2017
Birth place of Mojieto! Must visit
Todd BaileyNovember 4, 2012
Awesome place, much history. must see when in Havana
Ece BJanuary 16, 2019
Nice music upstairs too👍👍
AndyApril 14, 2017
hemingway's mojito spot - overhyped, overpriced and a tourist trap, but guess you have to go at least once
Can MerterJanuary 28, 2017
Live music. The birthplace of mojitos
NathanJanuary 1, 2015
A must-stop for Hemingway fans and tourists, but better mojitos are to be had elsewhere.
MariusDecember 23, 2018
What a tourist rip off. If you fancy nice Mojitos go somewhere else. They are even rumors that they refill the rum bottles with cheaper rum.
Lauren SmithDecember 31, 2019
Seems like a necessary tourist stop for an average mojito but skip the food. Came out way too quickly to be fresh and tasted as such.
AngelMarch 9, 2016
Mojitos and Cuban cigars!
jose rOctober 2, 2011
this is the cafe con leche mecca of the universe! y mas na' caballero!
Caitlin ClementsMarch 2, 2015
Hemingway bar
Serkan AkyüzJuly 8, 2015
Hemingway's favourite mojito place. You pay 5 CUC for a mojito, almost twice more than anywhere else. Greedy musicians expect you to drop at least 3 CUC into their hat. However, it is worth doing.
BeeeeMay 31, 2017
The mojito!!!!! Food is just average.
Oshun OshunMay 26, 2012
Most expensive mojito in Cuba. Not Thema beste at all...a pure Tourist trap
Oshun OshunMay 26, 2012
Expensive Drinks Form tourists. Thats far away from Thema real cuba feeling
Niek van den BergApril 6, 2011
mojitos! try it!
Gustavo PapasergioJanuary 22, 2010
Best Mojito in entire world!
Danz 🤘😎🤘February 1, 2018
Tómate un mojito y baila un son cubano. Te encantará!!! 🇨🇺 Los mojitos cuestan 5CUCs
Estefanía AlarcónAugust 28, 2019
El bar está genial, el servicio es rápido, el callejón está muy bonito! Los mojitos no son la gran cosa pero el chiste es ir a ese lugar, Precios accesibles 👌🏻
Inna MalinaSeptember 15, 2016
Рома в мохито действительно не жалеют.. и стоит привыкнуть к веточками мяты, создается впечатление что с корешками в бокал кидают. Посетить лучше вечером, когда туристы с курорта не так заполняют кафе
Leo Pérez RamosJuly 2, 2020
De esas visitas obligadas, habrá que ir con paciencia, siempre está muy lleno y cuesta entrar, la atención es excelente y según mi humilde opinión los mojitos pueden mejorar.
Andreia StangerDecember 4, 2018
Outra parada obrigatória em Havana. Entre pela porta lateral e vá até os fundos onde há paredes cheias de assinaturas de anônimos e famosos. Também há muitas fotos de visitantes.
Manu Nicás 🇪🇸August 19, 2012
La Bodeguita del Medio es el lugar ideal para hacer una pausa en nuestra visita a La Habana Vieja, y así poder disfrutar de sus famosísimos mojitos, como dijo Hemingway: -"My mojito in La Bodeguita"-.
Perla CoronaMay 28, 2017
Tienes que esperar mucho para pasar a restaurante, pero puedes pedir un mojito en barra, no me encantó porque lo hacen muy rápido, sin amor, pero tienes que probarlo porque ¡Cuba!
ViktoriyaShhJanuary 14, 2018
Культовое -да, здесь придумали мохито -да, здесь бывал Хемингуэй-да, но типичное, туристическое, где уже и не так стараются вас удивить или порадовать , так как на улице всегда очередь.мохито так себе
VictoriaJune 6, 2015
Мохито!!И прихватите маркер или ручку.Ведь это то место,где не стесняясь никого можно смело написать на стене или столе"здесь был Вася".И да,здесь был Хемингуэй и, кого только не было. Фото в помощь
Fabricio Keem ContrerasJuly 4, 2013
Los camarones enchilados son Dios! pero no pican! Si eres Mexicano, un poco de salsa tabasco puede ayudar, o mejor aún, llevar siempre tu salsa Mayakut Havanera :3
@RomeroJuly 10, 2019
Hola ¡¡ La he visitado muchas veces, tengo algunos amigos trabajando en la Bodeguita aunque sigo diciendo que NO prepara el mejor mojito. La calidad ha ido bajando mientras el precio, subiendo.
Vladimir DorofeevMarch 15, 2013
Единственное что спасает мохито от грамоты "самого худшего" - свежая мята и обилие рома (он тут 150 р за 0,75 - чего жалеть то). И он дороже в 2 раза чем везде. Еда очень простая! Только история
Yuri MarielJuly 15, 2015
Los famosos mojitos, una gran barra, música y gran ambiente, un lugar para visitar y disfrutar
