El Cocinero

El Cocinero is a rooftop restaurant, terraza, and lounge set in a refurbished cooking oil factory along the Almendares river between Vedado and Miramar. This distinctive venue features lush greenery and string lights on its top-floor terrace, anchored by a tall brick chimney that signals its industrial heritage. The bar serves carefully curated cocktails—from strawberry daiquiris to cosmopolitans—alongside organic, fresh Cuban ingredients, complemented by an extensive selection of spirits and wines. Connected to the Cuban Art Factory, El Cocinero regularly hosts live music and art exhibitions, creating a vibrant space where architectural character meets contemporary dining and drinking culture.
