A New Gourmet Coffee Shop in Aruba

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - December 30, 2015

One of the top coffee brands in the Netherlands has arrived in Aruba.

The gourmet coffee brand Smit & Dorlas has opened its first gourmet coffee shop in Aruba at the Hilton Aruba Resort and Casino.

The store is the first such branded coffee shop in Aruba.

Open from 7 AM to 10:30 PM, the shop offers everything from coffee and cappuccino to pastries and sandwiches.

The shop’s debut is the latest change at the resort, which debuted this summer as the transformation of the former Radisson Aruba.
