If you’re in Aruba and searching for a vibrant, laid-back spot that combines island charm with mouth-watering food and nonstop fun—look no further than Lucy’s Retired Surfers Bar & Restaurant! Located alongside the dock at the Renaissance Marina in downtown Oranjestad, Lucy’s brings coastal fusion cuisine, funky cocktails, and a true “vacation state of mind” to every guest—locals and tourists alike.
Whether you want to sway in a hammock, catch the big game, bring your furry friend for Yappy Hour, or challenge yourself with the infamous Scorpion Shot, Lucy’s offers something for everyone.
California Meets Caribbean: Coastal Fusion at Its Best
From crave-worthy appetizers like Avocado Fritas and Rock-A-Mole to flavorful mains such as Jamaican Jerk Chicken and Grouper Tacos, Lucy’s culinary offerings blend California, Southwestern, and Caribbean styles. The Late Night Menu is a fan favorite, especially the Surf’s Up Wings and Cheese Fries Amigos—served after hours when other kitchens are closed.
Plus, Lucy’s offers a “You Hook It, We Cook It” option—bring in your fresh catch of the day and enjoy it grilled, fried, or blackened with your choice of sides. Now that’s sea-to-table dining!
