Going out to brunch is a fun alternative to enjoying breakfast in your Casiola vacation home. Brunching in Aruba is one of the best ways to enjoy the island’s food. For those who are not familiar with brunch, it is a combination of breakfast and lunch served on Saturday or Sunday. While this may sound like a strange concept, it is very popular all over the world. You can find many different types of cuisine at brunch restaurants, we’ve included our top 10 best brunch spots in Aruba below. One thing that makes Aruba unique is its abundance of seafood and fresh vegetables incorporated into many dishes on its menu. There are many options available when choosing where to go for brunch in Aruba because there are so many great places to eat all around the island.
Moomba Beach Bar
Moomba Beach Bar, located on Palm Beach, is a popular brunch spot for those who want to eat outdoors in a casual atmosphere.

The restaurant can be found at the northern end of Palm Beach along Oranjestad’s main stretch, head left as soon as you cross over the bridge onto the island to reach it! Bring your bathing suit because you won’t be able to resist taking a post-brunch dip at their prime seafront location.
