The Buena Vista Music Bar was one of Kyiv’s most popular cocktail venues until war arrived. It has remained open despite the conflict engulfing the city, and is now a refuge for citizens, military and the press. People come for a hot meal, to meet others who have remained in the Ukrainian capital and to take in the day’s news. Maks Leonov, the bar’s owner, is determined to keep the doors open for as long as possible
