Aruba is home to some of the best coffee spots in the Caribbean. However, it can be tricky to find them. To make your search easier, here’s a guide to three coffee spots that will keep you fueled for all your adventures.
#1. Island Grind Coffee
Island Grind Coffee is the perfect coffee spot to fuel your adventures for a true taste of Aruba’s laid-back charm. The shop is near Oranjestad, so it’s easy to get to. Island Grind proudly roasts its beans locally in Aruba, using 100% Arabica coffee beans that are sustainably and responsibly sourced. Each batch is roasted with care to honor the hard work and dedication of the farmers who grow it.
Island Grind’s menu is versatile and features everything from velvety cappuccinos to refreshing cold brews. Their tropical-infused latte, with a hint of coconut and vanilla, is a fan favorite—perfect for sipping on a warm, sunny morning. If you’re feeling adventurous, try their specialty iced mocha, which perfectly balances rich chocolate and smooth espresso. The café’s relaxed vibe and friendly baristas make it a welcoming stop for tourists and locals. Grab a coffee to-go before hitting the beach or enjoy a quiet moment on their patio.

The signature cappuccino is a crowd favorite, but don’t stop there—try the specialty lattes or an iced Americano for a refreshing twist.

Inspired by a trip to Japan, founder Stefan created a rustic yet modern café with wood accents, black steel windows, and glowing string lights. After multiple trips to Colombia searching for the perfect bean, Stefan discovered the key was pairing high-quality Colombian beans with Aruba’s crisp tap water. From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted by the warm, inviting aroma of freshly brewed coffee and the vibrant energy of this local favorite. Santos Coffee with Soul became so popular the coffee shop opened a few more branches!
