    Great service! Loooved the chorizo and chicken montaditos! The steak was amazingly seasoned and they give you a ton of fries/sweet potatoes fries. My husband asked for his burger to be cooked medium. It was not pink at all but it was still very juicy. The cheese sauce was a bit too liquify for our taste but overall the burger was also good. Great spot!

    This is one of the most friendly places I've been in Aruba. The staff, food and service are fabulous! Hati is fabulous and has a great laugh.

    My first experience here back in 2019 was amazing. Definitely 5 stars. Drinks was good, food was good and came out quick, our waiter was nice (older woman with shoulder length blonde hair), etc. My second experience here, which was last Saturday, not so much. It was busy so everything took a long time. Drinks took 20+ minutes to come out. Alcoholic drinks tasted like regular slush. Our waiter seemed very over whelmed with all the tables she had. She was rushing to take our orders and was saying if we don’t know what we wanted, she’ll have to come back because she can’t wait. Even when we called her back about the drinks, it took a while. Seems like they were very short staff because she was taking orders and making drinks. She did tell us the food would take a while so order it with the drinks. Food took about an hour to come out. We were on our second drinks by then. The waiter we had back in 2019 ended up stepping in to help bring out the food and get us whatever we needed. Overall food was good, service could have been better. They need to hire more people so everything run smoother. Pancake flavors are great though. Would still recommend

    Owner is a prejudice human being. Kissed by the Sun ppl weren't welcomed. The only time she spoke was to give us check and even hesitated giving my husband the check and asked were we paying with card or cash and walked off, otherwise pallor ppl were greeted with smiles, laughter and recommendations. The server also acknowledged how bad the owner is ( because of course I asked). I told her she would be better off working somewhere else, she agreed and said very soon. Food was cold, Bacon was tough and salty waffles were bland, even with fixtures. Empanadas were decent.... You should treat all paying customers the same. Money is money and will get spent like anyone elses. If you notice anyone who left a low rating is combated with insult and belittlement by owners family, that speaks for itself. Instead of doing better, they'd rather argue with customers. Make sure you review their low ratings and you will see similar complaints.My experience is my experience. Thanks.

    They have gluten Free waffles! They are small and very very expensive a $5 up charge (seems excessive when most restaurants in Aruba is around the $2 mark). I wanted to go back daily but, that cost is just too much. The big breakfast was wonderful. They have a homemade hot sauce and pico that just make breakfast special. Axel was an amazing waiter! He was on top of everything. My husband and son loved going to get breakfast there and their cost was very reasonable compared to across the street plus, service was better too. I I would highly recommend Che for breakfast. Oh, the owner was amazing. She was always there greeting patrons and making sure everything was going smoothly.

    The empanadas Are greats especially paired with the chimichurri sauce. We also had the breakfast and we're surprised how a basic American breakfast had so much seasoning and flavor. Prices are decent, and the atmosphere is really relaxed

    The old lady working here is something else I tell you. She greeted us and it made us feel very welcome but nothing else about our breakfast here made us feel this way. We were a party of 2 adults and 1 baby. When we walked in we were seated at a table very quickly. We asked for a high chair and apparently the waiter forgot. My husband went to remind the waiter and instead of them handing him a high chair he had to go retrieve one himself as well as wipe it down while the waiters watched. The waiter took our order and mixed it up because he came back to tell us an item we didn’t order was out of stock. We corrected the order. No problem. We ordered three beef empanadas one chicken and one cheese empanada and an egg plate. After clarifying and finally getting the order we realize we were given three beef and two chicken. How do we know because I broke them open. No problem. I let the lady and the waiter know. A simple fix right bring a cheese empanada. The waiter confirms he conveyed our order correctly with the lady. She is visibly annoyed and it shows. She talks to another waiter about it while glaring at us. It’s an awkward uncomfortable situation. She comes to the table with the cheese empanada (which wasn’t worth the wait or attitude). Points at the other empanada on our plate and asks will we pay for the chicken empanada. I say no and hand it back to her. It wasn’t our fault. I didn’t order it and i won’t pay for someone else’s mistake. Do you know this lady grabs that empanada and put it back in the case! Disgusting! For the remainder of our time there she glares at us as if it was our fault. The saving grace was the drinks and convenient location to our hotel. The food was mid. It’s hard to mess up the basic items they serve. When we are done we ask to pay after waiting quite some time she asks what we order so she can ring us out. I guess she doesn’t trust because she confirms with the waiter. We have already waited to be checked out and now we are waiting even longer for her to confirm. Whatever. The icing on the cake was when she asks for a tip. Here is a tip: You can make a mistake if you own it and fix that r without making the customer feel uncomfortable. We watched other groups get their food before us after being seated after us and check out expeditiously. This was not the case and everyone in there knew it.

    We are visiting Aruba and stopped in for their happy hour cocktails last night as we had already eaten. Several of the other customers recommended the empanadas the menu looked great so we came back for dinner tonight. The beef empanadas were amazing!! My husband ordered the spicy chicken sandwich and I ordered the beef sandwich which were both SOOO good! Some of the best food we've had in Aruba! The staff were so knowledgeable about the menu and we attentive the whole time we were there. We will be back and would recommend!

    One of my favorite places to eat in Aruba. Nothing fancy, just real good food. Just give me an IV drip of their chimichurri.

  • 5/5 Murugs L. 2 years ago on Google
    Che Bar - Argentinian pancake place was the best for breakfast. Omelet with some additional seasoning made it so tasty. IT is served with skillet potato which is seasoned and cooked nicely and gives you the additional side which is tasty. They also have all you can eat pancake or French toast. But we tried Omelet whenever we went there because of the taste. The service is pretty good and they connect well and they welcome you nicely like a homely meal place

    The server was ok. However what seemed to be the owner (blonde older lady), ONLY took interest in me and my fiancée when it came time for me to pay. I observed how most she talked to and showed interest in non melanated people. My food came out hardly warm. The environment is definitely not welcoming to melanin people as it is to those that are not. It was dreadfully obvious. I’d rather spend my money with the locals. Better food, hotter food, more food.

    We have been coming here for the past five years. It's across the street from the Holiday Inn which is where we stay. Their breakfast is the best on the island. We have been to several other places in the area within walking distance, and this is by far the best. The staff is also excellent. Don't even go to dushi bagel, staff and food were average at best we have only eaten breakfast at Che bar. The pancakes are awesome and their coffee And bacon is outstanding.

    The owner was begging passer byers to come inside. There was only 1 person in the inside of the restaurant and none at the bar when we arrived. I dont see how this business would stay afloat. Must be the fake good reviews. But the breakfast lacked luster. I am an honest reviewer and will give credit where its due. Stop arguing back and forth with your reviewers and learn better customer service.. this shows exactly why the low reviews had a similar experience. Rude, cold food, and instead of making things right, they'd rather argue. Choose another location.

  • 5/5 Bryan D. 9 months ago on Google
    One of our favorite places in aruba! The empanadas are outstanding. The service is always friendly and attentive. We stop here multiple times every year to grab a bite or a drink or just to chit chat. I recommend you do the same!!

  • 5/5 Vang T. 10 months ago on Google
    Happy hour drink prices are the best in Palm Beach. $3 from 5-7pm. $4 from 7-8. $5 from 8-close. Food prices are comparable to other restaurants on the strip. All outdoor seating. Staff is very friendly. Just don't act entitled and you'll be shown latino kindness. Unsure how the other posters had a bad experience.

  • 1/5 Elizabeth H. 8 months ago on Google
    Went here for the breakfast due to the fact they have different flavors of pancakes to try. The website and the menu they hand out says 3 flavors for $9-10 or something. We went went to order we were informed you can only choose one flavor of pancake despite them having photos of 3 pancakes and different flavors on the menus and poster board for advertisement. The server seemed annoyed that we opted to share a big breakfast plate. Their juice options are only pineapple, apple, orange or cranberry juice. When it was time for the bill, another server came and gave us the bill and stood ontop of us until we paid the bill. Very uncomfortable. She did not leave or let us have a moment to gather our monies to pay. She just stood there and waited.

    I’m not sure who was working the night we visited, but he needs a raise! Not only did he draw us into happy hour after a long day of off-roading, but he kept us with his conversation and tips on the area! He took the time to walk us through the happy hour specials and was more than willing to recommend cocktails based on what we typically like in the states. 1000% recommend.

  • 1/5 Caroline F. 2 years ago on Google
    We went for all you can eat pancakes and were there for 2 hours to get only two refills. It was slow and when we asked why they just said “it’s slow eating”. When we asked for free tap water we got bottles and had to pay for it. The server just said “you drink it so now it is on the check and you have to pay”. Food was good, but service was horrible.

  • 5/5 Frans P. 2 years ago on Google
    The best chimichurri suas you will ever have. Went for lunch today great food great people, so its highly recommended.

  • 5/5 Dominick P. 2 years ago on Google
    This cafe was excellent. Hands down the best breakfast we had while staying in Aruba. The staff is extremely friendly. The owner ( I am assuming ) was not only friendly, but also very funny and personable . I highly recommend!

  • 5/5 Greg F. 1 year ago on Google
    By far the best breakfast spot we found when staying. It quickly became a daily stop after popping in for lunch on day for some great burgers and an amazing mango smoothie! Heady was an absolute delight and every day had such a great attitude and was one of the most friendly people we met. The food was great and reasonably priced! The owner is also a very nice woman and came by to visit us daily, truly a gem of Noord!

  • 4/5 Miss B. 2 years ago on Google
    Drove here on a Friday morning. We sat and waited almost an hour before our empanads even came out. Service was super duper slow. not sure why. But it seemed like the owner was the only waitress. IDK. She was calming and reassuring tho. Food was great! We sat outside on a sidewalk enclosed dining area. Big Breakfast - was good Beef Empanada - tasty, hot and the dressing was soo good! Irish Cappucino - yummy

  • 5/5 Alyssa T. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely perfect breakfast spot in Aruba! The prices are far better than some of the other mediocre places in Palm Beach. For $6.50 I got the perfect breakfast. The frozen drinks are to die for and so is the coconut iced coffee. I will miss this place and Hati so very much. You can’t put a price on happiness and that’s exactly what she brings every single day!

  • 2/5 Mariah C. 1 year ago on Google
    Honestly our food was quite bland and needed some flavor. Our server spent most of the time talking to other customers so we waited to be helped. Overall, not our favorite experience.

  • 3/5 Brittany 2 years ago on Google
    We came here for happy hour at 9 and found some open seats at the bar. The bartender was welcoming and funny, but the drinks tasted like juice with no alcohol in it. I really wanted to enjoy it here and maybe we’ll come back to try the food, but I don’t recommend it for drinks.
