Also known as the Patio Areito or the Patio EGREM, this small but authentic music venue belongs to the national record company EGREM. Areito is the imprint of EGREM that was used for the recorded music in Havana studios until 1996. The adjoining building is dedicated to the studios of EGREM that also manages music venues under the name of Casa de La Musica.

A patio bar leads into a rather plain performance room where you could listen to the traditional Cuban music, jazz, bolero, trova and son, accompanied by some spontaneous dancing., and watch and street rumba shows. Music type changed every evening according to the band playing, but Friday and Saturday nights were more dynamic. Here, you could also buy the CD’s and posters of the Cuban musicians.

Entrance was for 5CUC.
