El Rincón de Marco

$ | Lavapiés

Step straight into Havana at this hidden Cuban bar and restaurant where rumbas and sones flow from the speakers and regulars burst into impromptu dance parties. Whatever you end up eating—a €7 ropa vieja (cumin-scented beef stew), or perhaps the heftier €10 picapollo (fried chicken)—be sure to nab an order or two of fried plantains for the table.

La Habana Vieja

$$ | Born-Ribera

If you have an itch for a taste of Old Havana—ropa vieja (shredded beef) or moros y cristianos (black beans and rice) with mojitos (a cocktail of rum, mint, and sugar), or a round of plátanos a puñetazos (punched plantains)—this is your Barcelona refuge. The upstairs tables overlooking the bar are cozy little crow's nests, and the neighborhood is filled with quirky dives and saloons for pre- and post-dinner carousing.
