Free coffee by day, rum cocktails by night, Cuba’s finest comes to London for one week only.
Fitzrovia’s favourite caffeine spot, Kaffeine, is getting a full Cuban takeover this November as Ron Santiago de Cuba, one of the island’s most iconic rums, transforms the café into Café Con Ron – a four-day celebration of Cuba’s two greatest exports: coffee and rum.
From Tuesday 25th to Friday 28th November, Kaffeine’s Eastcastle Street café will become a Cuban cultural hub, bringing a slice of Santiago de Cuba’s warmth, rhythm, and hospitality to the heart of London. The activation heroes Ron Santiago de Cuba Añejo 8 Year Old, a golden amber rum aged in white oak barrels with smooth notes of tropical fruit, honey, vanilla, coffee, and chocolate – perfect for sipping or mixing.
By day, Londoners can swing by for free coffee between 8.30am and 10.30am, where Cuban classics like Café Con Leche and Cortadito are served with a sweet merienda bite. It’s a nod to the authentic Cuban morning ritual – one that’s social, slow, and built on connection.
As day turns to night, the space shifts gears. From 5.30pm to 8.30pm, Café Con Ron transforms into a laid-back cocktail bar serving complimentary Ron Santiago de Cuba cocktails. Expect rich, aromatic serves like the Café Invierno (with coffee liqueur and spiced honey), Café Ron Leche (a chocolatey coconut cream dream), and La Espuma Dorada – a velvety espresso cocktail crowned with golden vanilla foam.
In Cuba, coffee and rum share the same roots – shaped by the island’s tropical climate, social spirit, and sense of community. Café Con Ron brings that rhythm to Londoners’ daily rituals, from your first caffeine hit to your evening cocktail. We’ll drink to that! Salsa dancing strictly optional….
