    First night hungry hungry!!! Food was Good, service was better!! Love the ambiance, busy street corner, but I liked as it was our first feel of locals and tourist like us!! ❤️❤️❤️ they had some folks playing bones with a bucket of beer and patatjes, you can’t go wrong with that!! I would recommend, but not my top list with all the food options in Aruba!!! But I would eat there again!!! ❤️🫶🏽💪🏾🏅enjoy!!

    Great little bar. Great fries and legitimate Dutch snacks. Buckets of Balashi are reasonably priced. We've eaten here twice in the last two weeks and have enjoyed it both times. My wife made a mistake and ordered Nachos. They were well made and high quality, but my wife is very specific about what kind of Mexican food she likes and it's just possible that ordering Mexican in a Dutch restaurant on Aruba wasn't the wisest choice for her. The second time we ordered the $13.50 fish and chips platter. It was amazing... Tender flaky fish, great fries, amazing homemade tartar sauce which was almost like a thick ranch with lots of herbs. Loved it.

    Excellent fish & chips and coconut shrimp! ... And bonus: you can get peanut butter sauce on your fries! A great Aruba seafood with a Dutch flair!

    A must try !!! Genuinely was better food then most of the tourist restaurants in the area. Has a more local and Aruban touch in my opinion. We had the fish and chips and the german flat bread- vegetarian. It was hands down better then the god awful overpriced $100 Italian meal we had next to the Hyatt Resort… It was also half the price ! Ask for the papaya based hot sauce for a very nice flavor to your food. Servers are also very friendly but a few didn’t speak english so just be patient with them. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is the house made drinks were just ok. They can do better in that department, but the food is phenomenal and very affordable !

    Very cool place ! Great food very reasonable!! They allow people to smoke in all areas of the restaurant!! Absolutely horrible eating your food being gassed out by smoke ! Told the owner make an area non smoking, looked at me like I was crazy ! Went home and now all my clothes stink of butts . VERY UNHEALTHY for all concerned!! Won’t go back , our health is more important than eating here !

    If you’re not the bougie type and just want a fun, delicious, honest good place to eat, drink and have a good time. This is the place to be. I can’t rave more about this place. The food is excellent. The drinks are great. The people are fun. You won’t regret it.

    I had the schnitzel & my husband had fish & chips…they were both amazing! Quick, friendly service…

  • 5/5 Anthony B. 3 months ago on Google New
    Best fish and chips. The breading coverage is comprehensive and batter is not over fried or thick in places where fish should be. Not overly salted. We also had the appetizer platter and that was good. Nice staff, helpful with taxi.

    I went in for take-out and ended up staying because the cocktails was good. They had the best fries.I ordered some to go and ate them soon as I got to my airbnb. The staff and service was nice and quick. The atmosphere was cool. I sat outside and music was played and surprisingly I knew most of the songs being played so the vibe was nice.

  • 5/5 Yvette H. 5 months ago on Google
    Really good food and reasonable prices. Happy hour 4 to 6. I had the chunky fish n chips first evening, 2nd evening was beef tips with mushroom sauce, 3rd dinner was spare ribs and finally the 4th night was goat cheese salad which was out of this world paired with french fries with peanut sauce/mayo/onion which was delicious. Only outside seating. Waitresses were attentive.

    Friendly servers. Good food at a decent price. Great fish and chips. Another place I make a point to visit when I'm on the island.

Great experience right from when we were seated to when we left. Staff and, owner are amazing !! And the food ... DELICIOUS 😋 Wife and I had the Dutch Platter. Exemplary !!! Cheers to the owner and our waitress🍻

    TRY. THE. FISH AND CHIPS!!! Oh my God they are amazing! Very crispy outside but flakey and delicious fish inside.

  • 5/5 Matthew O. 8 months ago on Google
    A quaint local Dutch owned bar in Noord, tucked away from most of the Palm Beach madness. Cheap drinks and snacks combine with a chill atmosphere.

  • 4/5 Anneke 8 months ago on Google
    The food was delicious, very good prices. The staff was nice and the atmosphere was alright. 👍🏻 We had to park Infront of some building to get to this place, it's obviously better to walk there. No indoor seating but there's shelter outside.

    The fish & chips were great, however the moment was ruined by a large crowd behind us who were loud and smoking away both cigars & cigarettes!

  • 5/5 Ken P. 1 year ago on Google
    Perfect roadside pub/diner. A bit noisy and close to traffic, but the service and food quality made all that trivial. So friendly, delicious food. Best peanut sauce ever!

  • 5/5 Raynaldo P. 1 year ago on Google
    Out of all the places we ate at, this was our favorite place during our trip in Aruba. The food was amazing and drinks are made with love. You got to try their famous meatball and their owner’s special hot sauce. We loved being outside and the atmosphere is fun and friendly and the owner is dope. 100% recommend 👍🏾

  • 5/5 Kelly W. 1 year ago on Google
    Fun little place with great prices.. good food and a wonderful happy hour! We went a few years ago and had to come back! Eddie makes a fantastic drink and was fun to talk to! Highly recommend the Cuban sandwich!

  • 2/5 Alan G. 1 year ago on Google
    I had high hopes and was looking forward to fish and chips that looked like the photos online and was disappointed. The fryer oil appears to not have been changed in quite some time. The fish came out rather dark and not that tasty unless you like the taste of overheated cooking oil. The drink glasses were really small so be prepared to order refills often. The fries were also just average I had high hopes thinking of my experience in Amsterdam and this was no comparison to Amsterdam Frites. I say this because they advertised them as Frites and offered peanut sauce which is one of my favorite sauces. Now the service was slightly above average, not poor like the food. The atmosphere was okay if you don't mind dining right next to a busy intersection and the tables and chairs were not very comfortable. I do plan on going back and trying them again but it will not be the fish and chips. Everyone can have a bad night and the other reviews cause me to want to give them another chance. I did ask about dessert to give yet another chance to be impressed and was advised all they had was ice cream with a look that seemed to communicate don't try it. On a positive note, I need to add that I wanted fish and chips for my main but wanted to try the peanut sauce I tried to order Frites with peanut sauce as an appetizer and the waitress was kind enough to advise me that I could just get peanut sauce with the chips that come with my entree. I am hoping for a much better quality of food on my second trip as I don't think many of my other issues can or will be addressed.

    AMAZING FOOD!! A nicely hidden away treasure. We are so happy we found it! Waitresses are so lovely and the owner even opens the door for you! Will return again and again.

    This place was great. We really enjoyed our time here. Server and patrons were fun and environment was great. Food was delicious m we had burgers and we weren't disappointed m loved the Dutch fries w peanut oil, mayo and onions. Would definitely come back again and probably will soon.

  • 5/5 Olga G. 1 year ago on Google
    Great little spot, we sat outside food was very tasty. The drinks took a little long because the tour bus stopped there but other than that the wait staff was very friendly.

  • 5/5 Ana B. 4 years ago on Google
    Excellent service, tasty dishes, and refreshing adult drinks. Will come again! We came at 4pm and it was a bit slow, but quality was fantastic! I ordered the shrimp coconut with fries plate and it was very satisfying.

  • 5/5 Subhash B. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing pub!! Great comfort food!! Wonderful local Aruban experience! Japie, the owner was wonderful! My family and I were already planning our return trip to 080 and after meeting Japie, not only will we return, but also bring friends!! This is what Aruban urban dinning is all about!!

  • 4/5 Josh S. 1 year ago on Google
    Literally the best fries I have ever had in my life. I would recommend getting any of the fries meals etc. Ribs were just ok. Again, the fries were so good and stayed hot for a long time! Location wasn’t the best. Near a loud intersection and some flies bothered during our meal. Again, go and get some fries. Haha

  • 5/5 Jhon R. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic place 🤤 the best long island ice tea 🤯🤯🤯

  • 5/5 Cindy D. 2 years ago on Google
    Super delicious food and fabulous staff! We loved everything we tried and we tried a lot, lol. Parking is a little challenging but make the effort. The fries amazing, the chicken and fish are both excellent.

  • 4/5 Alan H. 2 years ago on Google
    Quick duck off for good drinks. Nice patio and good prices. Would recommend the egg rolls.

  • 5/5 Richard 2 years ago on Google
    Food was tasty and prices are great. Place is always busy, because it's good. Definitely go here to have a great meal at a reasonable price. One of Aruba's best values

👍👍 Man when I tell you this place is the BEST man I mean the BEST! While I was on the island of Aruba I ate here and now every time I come back I’m going to come back here. I came here twice and one of them were my last day on the island and I miss the food. Spicy sauce is soooo good and the goat Roti...

👍👍 Me and my boyfriend came here twice in December 2021 after attending a class at Island Yoga and it's a lovely place, not just for vegans. It provides you with food that is so different from anything else you will find on Aruba. We loved that the team makes almost all the meat substitutes themselves....

👍👍 The food here is delicious and the drinks as well! The swim up bar is by far the highlight here but the restaurant is also lovely. The only food I wasn't a fan of in particular was the tuna steak but I chaulk that up to personal preference/taste than any error on their part.
