Get DirectionsAbout Cuba-Bar
Cuba-Bar on Zülpicher Str. is a cocktail bar that runs salsa and bachata nights out of its bar space; Sunday is the main social night and Tuesday has a second regular session. Events and last-minute updates appear on their Instagram rather than a dedicated website.
Expect a compact, bar-centred layout with seating and a small open area for dancing rather than a separate ballroom; cover is typically around €7. The venue keeps late hours (doors from 18:00; Fri–Sat open into the early morning), so nights run late and the music is usually DJ/playlist-led rather than live bands.
Bring cash, reviewers report card payments are not always accepted, and be prepared for a drink-focused crowd that converts into social-dance evenings. If you need a large floor or formal classes, this isn’t the place; for a low-key, Instagram-promoted salsa/bachata night in the Zülpicher strip, it’s straightforward.
