Café La Habana, Historic coffee shop in Juárez district, Mexico City, Mexico.

Café La Habana is a coffee shop at the corner of Bucareli and Morelos streets in the Juárez district, preserving its 1950s interior with traditional furnishings and vintage photographs. The walls display black and white images of Mexico City and Havana, while waiters work in classic black and white uniforms.

Café La Habana opened in the 1950s on the corner of Morelos and Bucareli. According to the stories told about it, Fidel Castro and Che Guevara planned the Cuban Revolution at its tables. In the second half of the 1970s, Roberto Bolaño and Mario Santiago Papasquiaro made it a meeting point of the infrarrealista poetry movement, between 1975 and 1977.

The name and wall photographs connect the café to Cuba and its revolutionary history. It served as a gathering place for writers and artists who used the space to exchange ideas and discuss their work.

The café occupies the corner of Morelos street and Bucareli avenue, at number 62, in the Juárez district, a short walk from the city centre. It keeps the decoration from its early years, so the room looks much as it did when it opened. It is visited by families as well as by people who come for the literary history.

Roberto Bolaño turned the café into the "café Quito" in his novels Los detectives salvajes and Amuleto, so the room visitors sit in also exists in Latin American fiction.
