History
Established in 1935.
Ball & Chain offers a history as colorful and as fascinating as any structure on Calle Ocho, an area increasingly considered to be the center of Little Havana. Originally opened in 1935, Ball & Chain was a popular late-night haunt for many world’s most famous jazz musicians including Louis Armstrong, Billie Holiday, Count Basie, and Chet Baker.
Ball & Chain offers craft cocktails, tapas and live entertainment, under the guise of a long ago name, to guests from near and afar in a neighborhood now experiencing gentrification and a tourist boom unlike anything that has come before.
