Alfie's In Aruba - Canadian Pub & Burgers Oranjestad

Alfie’s In Aruba is one of Oranjestad’s most beloved local hangouts — a casual Canadian-owned pub on Dominicanessenstraat known for excellent burgers, generous poutine, and a hippie-meets-rock-and-roll vibe that draws both locals and visiting alternative-music fans. With a 4.7-star rating across 610+ Google reviews, this is a must-stop for travelers wanting authentic local nightlife away from the resort strip.

About Alfie’s In Aruba

Alfie’s operates Tuesday through Saturday 6:00 PM to 11:30 PM (closed Sunday and Monday) — definitively a dinner and late-evening destination. The atmosphere is casual, friendly, and intentionally non-tourist with a hippie energy and one of the only spots on the island that nurtures Aruba’s underground and alternative music scene. The owner is genuinely engaged, makes table rounds, and clearly has many repeat customers. Hand-cut fries and the famous burger menu anchor the food program. Pricing is moderate — solid value for the quality.

Signature dishes & menu highlights

The Alfie Burger is the namesake signature — well-built, generous, with hand-cut fries on the side. The Goober Burger is the conversation starter — peanut butter and jelly with maple bacon, and shockingly delicious. The Nashville Hot Chicken is the spicy alternative. The Jalapeño Poppers are a standout starter. The Poutine is properly built with squeaky cheese curds. The Rib Special rotates and earns rave reviews when on. Note: limited gluten-free options.
