    Been to the place 13 years ago, 9 years ago and we still like to eat lunch here. Happy it is still here, food is nice just as the service. Try the big burger! Also the Club Sandwich with fries is something to consider.

    A causal joint with island vibe on Main Street in downtown. Hubby and I came in for lunch one day during our trip to Aruba. It was quite a hot day and this place only have outside seating with hut-like shades. The Kiwi fresh fruit drink was refreshing. I ordered the Grouper fish filet while hubby opted for Garlic shrimp and the dishes come with 2 sides. My grouper filet was really tasty but the shrimp was a bit lacking in flavor in my opinion.

    Amazing atmosphere and super friendly staff! Delicious breakfast and good gluten free alternatives. A fantastic way to start your day before heading to the beach. Warmly recommend a visit to this Caribbean restaurant located in the Main Street of Oranjestad.

    This is one of the best restaurants I been to in Aruba. Great service, tasty and healthy food, and conveniently located in the Downtown Area. Being outside under the straw only made the experience better. I definitely will hitting this spot up with my lady before we return to Brooklyn, NY. DEFINITELY, try the cornbread--it's a mix of black American cornbread and pancakes. Even better is that this spot plays cool, chill Aruban versions of popular American/Western songs.

    I love it. I've had their buger with cheese and it is easily one of the best I've had in my life. They are very friendly people and they tend to your request. I went for lunch and even though it was a bit warm, it still was a cozy environment!! I will definitely visit them again in the future!

    Great food. You can feel the food is home made. I had the goat and it was amazingly tasty. Heads up that they only take cash or a physical credit card ( no digital payment using your cell phone)

  • 5/5 Bitterballen B. 1 year ago on Google • 59 reviews
    Amazing! I haven't had plantain in years I don't know why... they were soooooo good! Also had chicken wings which were delicious and a great portion for the price. Also did not realize it was happy hour from 4pm - 7pm so I got 2 wines for the price of 1!!! Will be back tomorrow to try the Keshi Yena 😋

    My mom and I ran casually into this place while walking around Oranjestad Downtown. It was so good, we had to go again before going back home. Food is delicious and you can feel the freshness and quality in every bite. The attention is superb and the ambiance is refreshing and cozy. A must if you are in Aruba!

    Out shopping and hungry? Coco Plum's is a great lunch spot for locals and tourists alike. Pastechi (a must have) for starters - we chose the classic beef and chicken, both were good. The Famous Plum Burger lived up to expectations. I wouldn't order the platter again because the fries were a little too much. The service was friendly and swift, the atmosphere (beach shack) very apropriate.

    Colorful and delicious local fare! The watermelon-lime shake was perfect and 100% natural and no sugar added. The "Pan Bati," a local bread, was almost like a pancake, and also very good. Great spot to cool off while strolling downtown Oranjested.

    Absolutely amazing. We have visited Aruba for the past 3 years, and this is by far some of the best food we have ever had on the island. The staff is incredibly nice and welcoming, and every single one of our seven dishes was delicious. Can’t recommend highly enough!

    I had read that this place has great food at great prices so we went to check it out. Lunch was good, prices were a little on the high side: 2 lunch specials (fish) and a salad with chicken, 3 drinks came in at a little over fls 100.00. Fls 35.00 for lunch is not affordable for every day (for locals). Good for a once in a while treat. Our server (Ilienne?) was great!

    Very clean facilities and a the owners were very hospitable and the homemade hamburger and fresh fries were delicious beyond words. Price were good, I love how a little decorative box is left with the receipt for you to pay. The excursion was Downtown Aruba Walk and Taste with Tour Guide. A very historical of Aruba and a must if you're interested in history and walking through the streets of Aruba.

    There weren't many restaurants open on Monday but this place was a great find. Had the tuna. It was a little tough (as tuna can be, waitress told me to get the salmon😬) but the flavor was delicious! All the sides were good. The fresh fruit drink was good too. Nice clean bathroom. Friendly waitress.

    Coco Plum has an island vibes to its establishment. Wife and I went there to have lunch and was very pleased with the food and customer service. We had keshia yena, pastechi, croquet and coconut nut ice cream. Keshia Yena was very well done in comparison to what we had the day prior at Gasparito. We actually tasted the flavor of the meat. Beef Pastechi was very good and the coconut ice cream (Cocodushi) was to die for. I will return next time I am in Aruba.

    Had snapper, garlic shrimp a few other small things and bread pudding cake. I changed to rice and beans and thought it needed a sauce or something. Wife really liked the shrimp but wanted more than 7. Bread pudding cake was great been chasing that for the whole trip but couldn't seem to get one infront of me. They also gave us mints with check that were good. Probably a 3.5 but since that's not an option I rounded up for good service

    The food is just ok. Nothing really special but it is fresh and we'll prepared. The only annoying thing is that in the menu it clearly states the a service fee is NOT added to the bill. But then in the bill a service fee was added. We ended up double tipping because we trusted the amount would be as stated.
