Miami

Cuban heart

Little Havana

8 min · 4 km from the centre

The Cuban soul of the city along Calle Ocho — cigar rollers, domino players, ventanita coffee windows and live salsa. Characterful, affordable and deeply local, a little rough at the edges; a flavourful, authentic base for anyone who wants Latin Miami over the beach.

  • 4.Calle Ocho & Domino ParkThe heart of Little Havana — old men slamming dominoes in Máximo Gómez Park, cigar shops, murals and the smell of roast pork. Walk Eighth Street, buy a guava pastry, and feel the city's Cuban pulse. Liveliest on the last Friday of the month.
  • 10.A Cuban feast & a cortaditoRopa vieja, a Cuban sandwich, tostones and a sweet cortadito coffee — the food that defines Miami, best at a bustling Little Havana ventanita or a classic like Versailles. Cheap, generous and the real taste of the city.
  • 14.Live salsa at Ball & ChainThe restored 1930s Little Havana club where Cuban bands play and everyone dances, from grandmothers to first-timers. Mojitos, a pineapple stage, and the warmest night out in Miami — go, and don't be shy on the floor.
