The flying-saucer-shaped building represents a UFO that has landed in Havana and is one of the largest ice cream parlors in the world. Coppelia has been a major city landmark for both locals and visitors since its opening in , but acquired additional fame when it was featured in one of the most widely viewed Cuban films, Strawberry and Chocolate. Coppelia was originally built in a project led by Fidel Castro to introduce his love of dairy products to the Cuban population, creating the Coppelia enterprise to produce those products. The original aim was to produce more ice cream flavors than the big American brands by buying the best machines from the Netherlands and Sweden. The site of Coppelia Havana was originally taken by the Reina Mercedes Hospital, which functioned from to when it was demolished. Originally, there were plans to build another hospital on the site, but plans later changed and a story skyscraper was to be built on the site, but all these plans fell through. A tourism promotion pavilion, Parque INIT, then occupied the site, then the Centro Recreativo Nocturnal night-time entertainment center , before Coppelia finally took over. Mario Girona was the architect of the new ice cream palace built on the site in The building was influenced by the biomorphic modernism of Italian, Mexican and South American modernists like Pier Luigi Nervi , Felix Candela and Oscar Niemeyer , who saw the opportunity to leave behind the rectangular forms of the steel high rises and utilize the plasticity of reinforced concrete. Populist ideology helped shape the design and use of the public space. The park area surrounding the building features lush groundcover and a canopy of towering Banyan trees which provide shade for open-air dining areas. Curvilinear paths lead to an elevated circular pavilion inside of which the only indoor seating is located.

Treva Bedinghaus. A coworker recommended me this place. Was going crazy trying to find good empanadas for a BBQ party. I ordered 40 empanadas my mistake was not just buy one and try it out. The chicken empanadas was sour and taste bad! Just my luck when one of my guess was eating one of the empanadas there was a worm between the chicken. My embarrassment was big enough to just not take empanadas and let all the other guess know about it. If not I would bring the empanadas and make a scene in the restaurant or call the health department. I hate to leave bag reviews in people Bussines specially now in this hard times. But if u go to Copellia make sure you verify your food specially the empanadas. I came here for lunch recently, and it's still a decent spot. I got some sort of cuban fried rice.. It was decent, though not a very large portion. I think I might come back here in the future just for the flan, since it's one of my favorite desserts, and because I think these guys do it well. Coppelia's customer service is also suspect. I emailed them recently through their online portal, asking them a question about the menu. It's been a week, and no one has emailed me back yet. Dropped by Coppelia in the afternoon in order to get a sandwich.. I was expecting more of a casual place, but this eatery can actually more accurately described as a cuban style diner. When me and my friend popped in, I think we were the only ones who ordered food to go. I got the cubano sandwich, which was what I had decided on getting after taking a quick look in the menu. It has cheese, for any of you interested. I felt like the sandwich was decent, but not any better than cafe habanas. Furthermore, the diner didn't seem that appealing to me. It was fairly full when I visited, but it was almost a bit too crowded in a way. The place is very dimly lit, and while I generally like more dim environments, this darkly lit restaurant gave me more of a Perhaps changes to the lighting can help. The bathroom situation here is also unimpressive. Only one toilet shared between the genders I suppose , which makes for a big inconvenience in terms of wait time. However, it seems like this place is known more so for it's late hours, so I may come back some time if in the area at AM or something. Business website. Phone number. Get Directions. Full menu.
