This place is amazing! If you’re vegan, it’s a lifesaver.

We were so lucky to find this place, and it was open! The menu is just beautiful… Healthy, tasty, and affordable. The owner was super friendly, and we loved our experience. If you’re vegan and in Aruba, this is the only plant-based restaurant on the island. Don’t miss it!

Pros: Vegan!!!, Healthy!!!, Zoodles!!!

Excellent, whole food plant based meals.

We go to One Happy Bowl at least once, each time we visit Aruba. It is one of the highlights of our trip. Great service and food made with love.

So many choices...

that you can have a different meal every time you go!
We only ate out twice during our last trip to Aruba (Nov 2020). We thought OHB was clean (Covid- cautious), the food was delicious AND ALL VEGAN!!
A MUST go for any vegan visiting the island.

Pros: All vegan , lots to choose from , Fresh vegetables

Good fast casual style bowls

Solid bowls. I like that you can get them with “zoodles” (zucchini noodles). The indoor seating is adorable, and there’s outdoor seating, too.

The con is the location, if you’re a tourist. It’s not really near anything for tourists to see and do other than the cruise port. Parking nearby isn’t plentiful, if you’re trying to just stop here on your way to something else. But if you’re in Oranjestad already, I recommend going here!

Pros: Delicious and healthy

Cons: Location (for tourists)

Great Find

My wife and I were extremely pleased to find this place when visiting Aruba in Feb 2020. Hans and his wife were very helpful with suggestions for vegan friendly local restaurants. We ate here about half the days we were in Aruba and grabbed a carry away for the plane trip back to Toronto.

Pros: Organic where available and everything fresh, Great location in Harbour

Cons: Time to expand the menu a little

Very solid bowls- could be slightly warmer

4.5/5- Very nice bowls- pick a base, 1 premium, 4 toppings, 1 topper, and 1 sauce. Some items could be a little warmer such as the roasted chickpeas, sweet potatoes, and rice. Very minor knock though.
Hopefully will be able to try the pancakes and the cookie dough dip.
They also sell interesting Lufas and reusable items.

Pros: Food, Portions, Staff

Positivity all around

Beautiful little cafe in a modern outdoor mall by the cruise terminal. Very clean and extremely good vibes. Food was very tasty and felt clean and healthy. A little pricy, but understandable given the location. Still well worth it. I would definitely come back if ever back in Aruba

Pros: All Vegan, Very clean, great service , Free WiFi

Cons: Just a little pricey

Delightful lunch in downtown.

Wonderful lunch bowls - fantastic 100% plant-based and GF menu. Had two different bowls - quinoa and bean patties, and spicy tempeh and brown rice. Delicious choose your own toppings - pomegranate, edamame, curry cauliflower. We will be back for breakfast of banana pancakes. And the nicest service!

Pros: 100% Vegan Plant-Based , Delicious variety - including island kombucha, Wonderful service
