4.5 / 5.0(739 reviews)
One of the best restaurants of the island. Super nice beer’s! The food is amazing and the staff is very kind. You can enjoy your drinks and food in the pub area or the garden! They have their own beer as well. Very tasty! They serve also Dutch and Belgium classic beers. A hidden gem with chill vibes and incredible food! 🌿🍔🍻 My girlfriend and I stopped by for lunch and had an amazing experience. Stan was our waiter—super friendly and helpful, which made us feel right at home. The atmosphere is on point—think laid-back 90s R&B and hip hop playing in the background while you relax in what feels like a tropical botanical garden. You can choose to sit inside, but the outdoor seating is something special. I had a german draft beer called Weihenstephaner smooth, fruity, and super refreshing. For food, we went with the Brewery Burger and the Pulled Pork Sandwich… both were absolutely delicious. Juicy, flavorful, and perfectly made. No complaints at all. This place is a solid 10/10 and one of the best lunch spots we’ve discovered in a long time. Definitely coming back! We booked for that evening. They were very responsive throw WhatsApp for the booking. They have tens of beers to choose from. The cocktails are very good. We had tuna tartar and white fish ceviche. Both were amazing in quantify and taste. For main we had the ribeye with fries. Loved the vibe of the restaurant.

We really enjoyed visiting here! We got to know the staff during our dive trip and also enjoyed the great beer and food. Try the fish burger with fries, and the nachos with pulled pork. Bonaire Blonde is their flagship beer but you must also try the Trippel Karmeliet.

Delicious food, great beer, friendly service! La Cantina is a restaurant and brewery combined! Reservations are a must especially for dinner. Limited seating at the brewery. Highly recommend this place. They brew a great blonde beer. One of the best draft beer blonds I have tasted. Interior decoration is lovely. Red snapper fish was delicious along with the jerk chicken. I will be back in a heartbeat!
