La Bodeguita Del Medio Sydney



Something new and exciting has just happened to Sydney.
Only a week old, La Bodeguita Del Medio has opened its 9th restaurant on York Street in Sydney, directly opposite the QVB.


It first opened its doors in Havana, Cuba in April 1950 and since then has developed into a global icon. It has played host to numerous celebrities, artists, musicians, writers, journalists and socialites over the years and during the 1950s became a regular venue of choice for high profile guests.

Famous guests over the years included; Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Winston Churchill, Bridget Bardot, Sophia Loren and more.

However it was Ernest Hemingway that brought La B Del M into international prominence after he penned the now famous phrase "My Mojito in La Bodeguita" which can still be read on the wall at the original bar in Havana, Cuba.



We stumbled across the venue whist standing at the bus stop, the energy coming out of the venue was overwhelming, so we had to investigate. What we found was a mix of amazing food, music and cocktails in a beautifully designed yet homely surrounds.
