There are tens of good restaurants and cafés in Havana for dinner or lunch, but if you look for a place for breakfast, the Café Arcangel is the right choice. The elegant vintage decor and the friendly atmosphere inside make you feel like at home. Even though, this part of Havana is known by its reggaeton music, the suave non-reggaeton music is played at a relaxingly low volume in the café. There are some antique objects around. Round or square tables are covered with beautiful motif tiles. Old Charlie Chaplin reels are playing on a small TV. The walls are covered with photos and pictures.

In this special café you can order American breakfast or the rich breakfast of the house, savory hot sandwiches, baguettes filled with serrano ham and smoked salmon or fine tortas (cakes). The café offers excellent coffee. The staff is friendly.
