You can usually stay at the bar right after your tour. On busier nights, give yourself a small buffer to find seats, especially if friends or other guests are already gathered. For sit-down meals at restaurants within the Gloria Entertainment Center, reservations can help on peak evenings, but walk-ins are often welcome.
Drink Balashi. Share a Bite. Stay Longer.
In Aruba, we don’t celebrate alone, and neither should you.
The bar at the Balashi Beer Experience is made for spending time with great company and a cold Balashi in hand. Pull up a stool, order a round, and let Aruba do the rest.
Hungry? The Gloria Entertainment Center connects directly to the experience. P.F. Chang’s, Olive Garden, Starbucks, and an IMAX cinema are all inside—no taxis, no planning, just more energy as you continue your night.
About the Balashi Bar
The Bar That Brings People Together
Whether you’re 2 people or 12, there’s a seat and a cold Balashi ready for you. Above the bar, a crown of green and red bottles signals celebration—and by the bartenders behind will have you feeling like a regular in no time.
Have Dinner at Gloria
Once you’ve emptied your glass and traded a few stories, you don’t need a taxi or a new plan, just a place to get some good food. Step out of the Balashi Beer Experience and straight into Gloria, where familiar favorites and a world-class cinema are already waiting.

Aruba Sounds Better Live
There’s a small raised stage that doubles as a quiet perch by day and a micro-stage by night. Some evenings welcome a DJ set or a live band, giving your conversation its own soundtrack you can dance to.

Tasting Room
The Rum Shop is part of the Balashi Beer Experience, and it’s where you receive your first free beer. Raise your glass, taste the beer Aruba made famous, and let the space do what rum shops do best: make a cold beer feel like a local tradition.
Balashi Gift Shop
Before you leave the experience, stop by the Balashi gift shop. Pick up exclusive items, grab a souvenir, or personalize a Balashi bottle.
Olive Garden
Around the corner in Gloria, Olive Garden offers familiar comfort—pastas, salads, and long talks over baskets of breadsticks. After your Balashi toast, it’s a simple way to keep everyone together at one of the most convenient places to eat in Aruba.
P.F. Chang’s
P.F. Chang’s sits inside Gloria. After the tour, your group can slide from cold Balashi to a full table without leaving the building. It keeps the night moving, especially when one more round sounds better with dinner behind it.
Frequently Asked Questions
You can find familiar favorites just outside the Balashi Beer Experience, inside the Gloria Entertainment Center. You’ll find full meals at P.F. Chang’s and Olive Garden, casual options in the food court, and snacks or light bites at Starbucks. It’s a relaxed, flexible way to eat among some of the most convenient places to eat in Aruba.
Some evenings feature a compact band or low-key DJ near the bar; other nights keep to a background playlist. The music lifts the mood without drowning out conversation, so you can still talk through dinner plans at Gloria or decide whether to catch a movie after your drinks.
