Few things reveal a city like where it queues for bread. In Havana, that means 43 bakeries and morning spots across 4 neighborhoods — sourdough obsessives, family-run pastry counters, and brunch rooms worth the wait, averaging 4.7★ from real visitors.

Go early: the best of these sell out before noon. Mythos Restaurant & Coffee is the local benchmark — and Vedado rewards a longer wander with more finds.
