Food and dining in Aruba offer everything from beachfront dining and local delicacies to upscale fine-dining establishments and beach bars with vibrant happy hours. Aruban local cuisine offers up the heart of Caribbean flavor. You can dine with your toes in the sand and the surf crashing on the shore.
Head for Pika's Corner, a local staple with a delicious variety of fusion food, or grab takeaway food from a local truck with pampoena, jambo, sopi, and other local dishes. You can even, if you like, head for a classic café for outstanding cappuccino and a basic soup and sandwich right along the sidewalk.
