We were there in April - great place! We'll definitely be going back again when we're back in Aruba in Sept.

It's located just down the road (going inland) from the Allegro. It's in a small strip mall a couple of doors down from Linda's Pancakes. The owners there are really nice and make sure you check out the signs on the bathroom doors (very funny!)

Cool Re: Bingos

Amy, did anyone say why the previous owners gave up the business? It used to be called Captain's Table or Captain's Corner..always got the two confused. The food was wonderful as were the waitresses. I know that a couple from Holland owned it. I think he was an artist and had lots of his work around the bar area, and his wife was the hostess. I was disappointed in February when I found that the place was sold and had another name, although I did stop to check out the menu one night, but never did eat there.

I never even thought to ask what happened to Captain's Corner. Sorry.

Hi people,
im mike and im one of the 2 new owners of the place that was called Captains Corner. We took over this place October last year....the former owner went bankrupt and went out of business. We changed the name cause we wanted it to be a new place. As well as the looks of it , we totally rebuilt the place to one of the nicest looking places on Aruba.It looks like a typical dutch bar now, lot of dark wood. The place has a nice ambiance.......we also changed the menu....i know the quality of the food is much better then it was when it was captain's corner.We still have a great staff, 2 dutch women and a dutch guy who know what they are doing and love their job.We rebuilt the outside terras as well, made it look bigger and cleaner.........people who want to recieve our menu: send an email to mikearuba@hotmail.com and i will send you one, try it out, it's one of Aruba's hotspots already, nice local ambiance with nice local prices.....
Hope to see you!!
mike

Went to Linda's on the last day of our May trip and asked about Bingo's. Was given a menu by our waitress but didn't have time to try it but will definitely be there during our August visit to the island. Menu and prices look great. good luck Mike!

Thumbs up Re: Bingos

Bingo's is very good!!! We were there in January & had good food, drinks & company!
We along with the couple we travel with have known one of the owners (Franz) for many years from his previous job at the Kokoa Bar. We met Mike on our January trip & we felt we had know him a long time too. You'll feel very welcome at Bingo's & enjoy the food & atmosphere too! If you go tell Franz - Derry, Sherry, Ken & Bobbie sent you & we'll see them again in January 2006, God willing!!!!!
