About
Craft was born out of the desire for a place with excellent coffee, craft beers and cocktails, coupled with a lounge atmosphere in casual decadence on Palm Beach in Aruba. There's seating inside, at the bar, and outside on our terrace. It's the perfect place to people-watch.

Love this place. Always good standard food. Nice cocktails and a younger crowd than the rest of the strip. A mix of locals and tourists. The brunch on Sunday offers a bottomless mimosa option for 20 or 30 dollars and on Tuesdays they offer a 1 dollar taco option

We first tried Craft 2 years ago when we came to Aruba. It became our staple for breakfast and we went 3 or 4 days- the food and coffee/tea were consistently delicious, no matter what we ordered. In particular, the waffles with Nutella and fruit were great, as were the huevos rancheros. The prices are also reasonable. At that time it was never very busy, which really surprised us; it was our hidden gem.
Fast forward to July 2021, and it is not so hidden anymore! I was happy to see how busy it was for lunch. We went for lunch today and it was delicious- the chicken and waffles were the perfect blend of sweet and savory. We will definitely be back before we leave Aruba!
We also tried their sister restaurant, Lola, for tacos (Taco Tuesday has select $1 tacos). Lola is in the same place as Craft, it’s basically 2 restaurants in one and you are able to order from either menu. Additionally, some select breakfast items are available until 4 PM which is nice. We tried the carne asada tacos, the smoked pork tacos, and the nachos with smoked pork. My tacos weren’t part of Taco Tuesday, but my husband’s were, so we only spent $2 for his entree, and between that and happy hour half price mixed drinks, our dinner, including an appetizer and dessert of FRIED OREOS with strawberry sauce was pretty darn cheap! I’m not sure if they take reservations, but it may be worth looking into for dinner at Lola, because we had to wait about 30 minutes for a table (not a problem, just something to be aware of). Also, if you aren’t nearby or listening when they call your name for a table, they will move on to the next person, so just make sure you are close by and paying attention.

Cant rave about this place enough. Their tacos are awesome, you really can’t go wrong. Not to mention, the prices can’t be beat on the island. They have a daily special of mojitos for $6 and they are filled with fresh mint and delicious. We went 3 times in 2 weeks and plan to make it part of every trip when we return. Favorite tacos: brussel sprouts & fried Korean chicken. Also, don’t miss the fried oreos. Make sure to get a reservation because they are really busy after 6:45pm.

First off a very busy week so as expected wait time was longer then usual I found takeout to be faster than sit down service. I actually visited many times while there when I did dine in due to Holiday service was slow and drinks sat at bar for a long time before being served and order was not correct. But I’ve eaten there ate other times As recent as Early September and didn’t experience this problem. I would only suggest hiring more help temporarily at this high season.

Hi there,
Thank you for visiting is again.
High season came in strong this year and we prepared by hiring more staff.
Unfortunately some staff also stayed home because of the flu.
Because of earlier visits you know this is not the norm.
Hope to see you back here soon.

The food was very good but I was not impressed we sat at the bar and one of the bartenders was a little rude she wanted to clean the bar top and instead of saying excuse me or asking me to move she just kind of pushed me out of the way. The bartenders also all had their mask under their chins which I don’t see the point of them even having them on if they are going to do that. The music was so loud we could barely talk to the waiter, I will admit our waiter was very nice though.

Hi Jordie,
Thank you for the compliments on the food & service.
The rude lady may have been our cleaning lady. We will ask her to be more polite in the future.
The staff is supposed to be wearing their masks while working.
Wondering what day or night you visited. The music can be a bit louder than normal at night on weekends.
In our opinion 2 stars is a bit harsh.
Best regards

A street side venue that provides good food with a variety of different tacos and Wednesday nights has small appetizer tacos at a $1 a piece. A great quick in and out kind of place. Fun!

Our bus driver from the airport said this was a good place, he even recommended the buffalo tacos and he was right. The buffalo tacos were amazing and don't let scare of being too spicy fool you, these tacos had a subtle buffalo flavor and were meshed with fresh shredded carrots caramelized onions and a honey mustard sauce, it tasted even better than it sounds. without drinks it was really inexpensive and I can't speak enough about the flavors in these tacos. We will always stop here at least once when traveling to Aruba again.

We didn’t have one thing we didn’t like here; mushroom quesadilla, cotija grilled corn, carne asada tacos, lobster tacos, or chicken Morita tacos. The drinks were also well balanced, the music playlist thought out / relevant and overall the service was extremely responsive. Just a note, the tacos are on the smaller side so order a couple different kinds, you can’t go wrong.

I read great reviews for Craft and was really looking forward to trying the pancakes. However, I was disappointed in my choice. My husband ordered huevos rancheros which came out (small portion but tasty) 15 minutes before my pancakes so he finished his entire meal before I got mine. The pancakes looked delicious when they arrived but they are very heavy and dense... not light and fluffy at all. No coffee or water refills were offered. We had lunch another day and ordered tacos, a side of fries and the chicken & waffles. Everything was very good. I would go back again just for the chicken & waffles! So overall review is good but could be great with some adjustments.

Hi there,
Thank you for visiting us and for writing a review.
We're not sure what could have happened, but our pancakes are known for their fluffiness.
We will definitely look into it. We have never given, or advertised free coffee refills so we're not sure why that's a surprise. Hope to see you again soon

I tried almost all their menu: everything tastes great and freshly prepared. Savory dishes, desserts and cocktails are all recommended. Tacos are a bit small, but so cheap it's easy to grab a second serving if you're still hungry. The quesadillas are more substantial. The ceviche is exceptional.
The atmosphere is great and there is music all the time if you feel like partying. The staff are very friendly and will make you feel at home. I especially thank Paola and Stephanie for chatting and recommending what to eat!
Definitely a "must" if you are in Aruba!

We went for lunch on Taco Tuesday where the menu said that on Tuesday Taco's are USD 1. So we ordered taco's. When we received the cheque, it appeared that Taco Tuesday is not on all taco's.... The menu gives false information and the waiter should have informed us when we ordered the taco's that not all taco's are included in Taco Tuesday (only 2 are included of which non are vegetarian). This was very disappointing for us and we felt screwed over.

Hi Myrthe,
Lola Taqueria has $1 tacos on Chicken Morita & Carnitas every Tuesday. This is not a secret nor is it stated that all tacos are $1. The Taco Tuesday is non-vegetarian due to the 50% off on vegan tacos every Monday special. Miscommunication definitely played a role in this case.

Wow. I read the reviews and assumed there was some grade inflation. Not so. The chicken and waffle dish was one of the best I’ve ever had - perfect blend of savory, sweet and spice and oh so satisfying! My kids loved the quesadillas and tacos and the ice cold drinks and fast, friendly service and incredibly reasonable prices were the icing on the cake.

Must try!!! We ate here 3 times in our week in Aruba- we loved it that much! The cocktails are lovely, we tried the Mule, the Green Tea Whiskey, Local Girl, and Sangria. Simply cannot pick a favorite, they are all phenomenal. Another table that had the guac personally called the chef out to compliment it, and I wholeheartedly agree that it is worth it. The staff are also all so pleasant and just add to the experience. In terms of food, once again, it’s hard to pick a favorite. If you can only have 1 taco, have the Shrimp taco- but La Gringa, Octopus, Baja Fish do not disappoint. The whole restaurant is an experience and I cannot say enough good things about it. Go here for dinner and enjoy the neighborhood afterwards! It will not disappoint.

Best food on the island so far. Everything this place does is spot on and thought out.
Tacos to die for. Delicious well crafted cocktails. Best coffee we had so far. Servers and hostesses that recognize you and welcome you back. Best of all? Everything is more than reasonably priced. A few reviewers complained of long wait times or poor service. Umm...this place is slammed busy most of the time. Maybe you have to wait a little for service occasionally, but honestly most of the time they get things out reasonably quick and with a smile. If you go on $1 taco Tuesdays come early or plan a long wait time. Don’t miss it.
