This was the most amazing find for a dinner, drinks and watching the sunset! After reading reviews for outside seating with sunset views...we read lots of "over priced" and "food not worth the price" and seeing some of those other restaurants on the beach, noticing the wind blowing the table cloths all around we decided to try Bugaloes.

As a Dutch person it's good to talk to people from my own tiny country. But this place feels international, which is good. It attracts people from all regions in the world. The location is perfect. The cocktails are really good. The food is good for a really decent lunch. And at some nights they have live music. Really worth... More

I gave it three stars because we had the last table on the pier, closest to the water. The view doesn't get any better than this. Worst mojito I've every tasted in my life. My girlfriend had some blended drink that tastes like they "forgot" to put alcohol in it. She had some chicken wrap which was really lettuce, tomatoes... More

Fun atmosphere, great band, beautiful sunset, reasonable prices and a pretty darn good burger and great curly fries. Would definitely go back for the dancing and the view! A great casual meal for a change of pace!

Great bar food and drinks. Staff is fun and friendly. Pier bar out on the water with wonderful Aruba breeze. Been to Aruba 6 times and our favorite place to take a beach break for liquid refreshments. Will be heading back for 7th tour in one week....x

We keep coming back to the "pier bar" for great grouper sandwiches and cold beers. This is the first place we go when we arrive. The staff is friendly, great drinks, and all the food is good. Most nights, a good local band. Happy hour. Try it out, and you will agree.

The menu is a little limited for my liking but what we did order was very good. The views are amazing. The decor definitely gives you something to look at and there were a good amount of people there at and off time!! I highly recommend trying the Bugaloe Fries!!

All I can say is that we can't wait to go back there. Twice a year is not enough. The drinks, the food, the music, the view, the atmosphere - just heaven. Have to say though that it is all made even more perfect by the staff, what gorgeous people. If you go to Aruba you must not miss Bugaloes,... More

Had a really nice lunch at Bugaloe. Especially loved the Ceviche. Best on the island. Drink specials were great. Beautiful location on the water, easy walk from all the high rise hotels.
