Where to eat Bar food in Aruba: The Best Restaurants and Bars

August 19, 2019 Brandee Mangan

Find out what Bar restaurants to try in Aruba. Aruba is the quintessential Caribbean island, all sun and sea and stretches of powdery white sand. Time will slow to a pleasant crawl as you linger over a tropical cocktail or flutter serenely underwater, where only the parrotfish are in a hurry. The pastel façades of Oranjestad landmarks and shops lend an inviting and playful vibe to the capital city. Enjoy the shade of an Eagle Beach divi tree while the crashing waves of turquoise water create a soothing soundtrack just for you.

If you like drinking close to where your toes can touch the sand, this is the place. We did not eat here however, we had a few enjoyable drinks. We felt compelled to order the pina coladas that everyone raved about. There were good, but not great (in our opinion). We felt that the slippery monkey was a much better alcoholic beverage. Service was great and when back to Aruba, we will definitely be back!Dear Andrea, we would like to thank you for writing us a wonderful review, we are very happy to hear that you had an amazing time with us, we look forward to see you back soon at Waves Bar and Grill, have a wonderful day

We spent a lot of time at the Pega Pega Grill and Beach Bar during our stay at the Manchebo Beach Resort and it was a wonderful experience every time! The menu has a lot of options for vegetarians and vegans. The menu is extensive, particularly for a beach bar. The atmosphere is fun and the staff was always very friendly and helpful. I want to thank, Junior, who always went above and beyond to be helpful to us during our stay. Thanks Junior! This is a great spot and I highly recommend it!Thank you so much heartinthekeys,for your wonderful comments on Pega Pega's menu options, service and atmoshphere.

We discovered this place while paddle boarding with Dennis Martinez (look him up for water excursions!) We ended our trip here and grabbed a drink while we waited for him to get the car to pick us up. The staff was friendly, the place was laid back and had a gorgeous view of the marina. They didn't care that we were wet and didn't have shoes haha.We liked it so much that we went back the next day for lunch. It had a great selection of tapas and sandwiches. My husband got a fish sandwich for 15 dollars. I got 2 apps. Conch fritters and garlic shrimp. I will say the apps are a little pricey, but they are quality and delicious, plus the staff is amazing and everything is expensive in Aruba. And the location!!!!! When I say expensive, I mean that the garlic shrimp (3 shrimp) came with a small tasting of the most amazing macaroni salad I ever had. But, the app was 10 dollars. I'd still order it again. And we plan to go back to the place again when we visit in 2 years. If you are looking for laid back, small, island casual that locals visit, too... Go here. You won't be disappointed!

The food was OK. Nothing amazingly tasteful... empanadas had much better somewhere else, the churrasco portion was small however tasty, the ensalada mixta was very good, drinks OK... we were having a good time up until a guy with an electric guitar started playing way too loud. we could not talk anymore because we could not hear each other at all. Total dissapointment. We left. We could still hear the music many blocks away!!!!!

Reasonable priced, excellent food, great craft beer selection with a great mix of locals, tourist and expats and the local motorcycle gang. They often throw great parties with live bands and the waiters are super nice, although I think they are somewhat understaffed.
