Third time’s the charm with Havana Social

In October last year, Casa Havana on 9th Ave was reborn as Havana Libre. Less than six months later, Havana Libre closed their doors. After sitting dormant for a few months, the place is now gearing up for its third take on the Havana “brand”, with Havana Social:

A quick stroll down memory lane:

The awning banner lists it as a “restaurant, bar & tapas lounge”, which is pretty close to what Havana Libre had, so not sure what the new version will have different to try and make it more of a success, but we’ll keep an eye on how it goes (and whether the car survives the transition).
